Wellbutrin and Xanax when needed. I tried Lexapro last summer and gained eleven pounds in two month. Trying to lose them has been a bitch. It still fascinates me how each of these medicines work so differently for everyone. Don't be afraid to tell your Doctor if something isn't working for you after a few months have passed, sometimes it can take a few tries to get it right.
I was on Zoloft and weaned off. No issues. It sort of stopped working well for me after 5+ years of taking it even after increasing the dose. Tried celexa briefly and didn't like libido issue (but felt so damn happy the few weeks that I was on it!). Switched right to Wellbutrin and once I got to current dose, my anxiety is gone. Been on it for 6 months.
I have been on Trazodone for years. Easy to wean off from, no side effects. If the anxiety gets worse, I take a little more for a week and then get back on a normal dose. Good luck
