I am taking Lexapro and Wellbutrin but still having trouble getting out of the house everyday. What
06/27/08
Child and adult sexual abuse history. Attempted suicide several times in 31 years of life. Have a professional job in entertainment that I love. These last 2 months have been really hard and I have missed A LOT of days in the office. I am currently on Lexapro and Wellbutrin and still feel depressed and can't get out of bed some days. Feel hopeless and worried that my depression will take me from my job. Is there anyone that can offer suggestions or personal experiences? I really need to get some help!

Talk to your doctor right away. The treatment is not working if you have been on these medications more than two weeks.
Also, if you are not in therapy at this time, I would strongly suggest investigating it.

You've had a very serious history of trauma, etc. Therefore I'm not sure what is being done for me is relevant in your case.
I am on Lexapro and Nortriptalin for depression, but still have a hard time leaving the house to start the day. My p-doctor put me on a very low dose of Ritalin (5 mg.) which I take every AM and sometimes after lunch. It has helped. Ask your doctor about it. It is kind of unorthodox, I think, but it is prooviding me with the nudge I need.
