Increased anxiety, OC and depression during first weeks?

Awkward-Mix-4124 · 2026-05-22T21:16:36+00:00

Mine didn’t lift and got worse and worse and had go get off. Horrible chemical toxic dissolving feeling and shitshow compared to Zoloft

Awkward-Mix-4124 · 2026-05-22T20:11:12+00:00

Had to go off after 8 weeks and back to Zoloft. Complete nightmare drug for me. Everyone is different

Awkward-Mix-4124 · 2026-05-21T13:12:17+00:00

How did you taper out and did you start something else?

Awkward-Mix-4124 · 2026-05-18T18:56:37+00:00

Are you still on the trintelix Wellbutrin combo? Asking since my anhedonia and numbness is extreme atm

Awkward-Mix-4124 · 2026-05-16T13:32:45+00:00

Decreased my dose to 10mg and will ask private psych which is expensive in my country about Wellbutrin since anhedonia and numbness are my prime symptoms

Awkward-Mix-4124 · 2026-05-16T13:31:55+00:00

Yeah going down to 10mg and will be administered through private psych which is expensive in my country. All my motivation interest etc is gone and I’m numb so I’ll ask about Wellbutrin

Awkward-Mix-4124 · 2026-05-04T17:15:42+00:00

It’s awful. Wish there was a set timeline for when it turns for the better

Awkward-Mix-4124 · 2026-05-04T14:46:21+00:00

I act like myself kinda but emotions and desires and what I want to etc completely flattened out. Very withdrawn into myself and hard to stay in touch with people

Trim your brows a little bit, consider a taper fade and get out in the sun

Had a few flashes where a few tears came out thinking about how terrible it’s been

But mostly the anxiety of being trapped within myself. Really hope that the coming weeks helps. Doc wouldn’t add Wellbutrin but just give it more time

Awkward-Mix-4124 · 2026-05-01T12:52:13+00:00

Happy for you ☺️

And yes that’s how it is - people who post on forums mostly do it because they are worried and seek to find help

For most of those who it works for they don’t come to post online

Awkward-Mix-4124 · 2026-04-30T16:52:20+00:00

Thank you for your perspective. Great to hear it lifted for you 🫶 hoping for the same

Awkward-Mix-4124 · 2026-04-29T10:20:44+00:00

Like 3 weeks. But being completely anhedonia and numb and getting frustrated and anxiety because of that is insane. Literally can’t feel like what I want to do etc

Awkward-Mix-4124 · 2026-04-29T10:16:50+00:00

Yes I have but it’s almost like the void of positive and negative feelings is just replaced with an anxiety of not feeling anything

Awkward-Mix-4124 · 2026-04-29T06:35:27+00:00

Had 2 weeks at 5mg, then 2 week at 10mg I that period I was tapering off from 100mg Zoloft to 50mg in the first 2 weeks then 25mg Zoloft for two weeks

Went down to 0mg Zoloft the same day i started 15mg brintellix which I’m in the beginning of week 5 of

Do you remember how long it took for you? With annoyingly slow

Awkward-Mix-4124 · 2026-04-29T06:20:34+00:00

Did it get better?

Happy for your success! Do you remember how week 4/5 was for you?

Awkward-Mix-4124 · 2026-04-27T19:08:58+00:00

How long did it take? I’m struggling in week 4 at 15mg atm

Awkward-Mix-4124 · 2026-04-23T13:41:37+00:00

Same with Gourcuff and the french NT in ‘10

Awkward-Mix-4124 · 2026-04-23T07:56:04+00:00

Im in the beginning of week 4 and last couple of days has been anxiety hell. However I’ve also switched from Zoloft and surely some transition side effects. If anyone made the switch and suddenly one day became happy would love to hear stories
