Q: I have been taking medication for 15+ years for depression and lately I am very agitated, irritable and have explosive anger. I take welbutrin and know it isn't enough. Help?
Abilify is very good for depression and the mood swings, and can be taken with Wellbutrin. I have been on this in the past for a little over a year. I had to stop the Abilify because my head started shaking side to side, but this does not happen to everyone. Was on Abilify 15mg 1x, Wellbutrin XI 300mg 1x , felt good.
Have you had any success? I am having the same problem with Welbutrin. I was on Zoloft, 150 mg per day, but that just "zoned" me out.

It's me again, after I stopped taking the Abilify, my head quit shaking side to side in about a week. It was not a little shake it was bad enought I did not leave my house. I have had ALOT of different side effects from medications. I have had up to 11 side effects at a time with one medication so their's just something about me. I do suspect maybe that my ex pdoc might have, not on purpose OD me?
