Celexa and/or Wellbutrin users

I was on Celexa for most of my pregnancy for anxiety issues.  I started at 10mg.  My dose was increased several times.  Before the birth of DD I was taking 30mg.  After DD was born my anxiety increased; so, my meds were inceased to 40mg.  About 5-6 weeks after delivery, my anxiety increased and depression began.  My ob now has me taking 40mg of Celexa and 150mg Wellbutrin?  I just started taking the combo yesterday.

Has anyone used this combo?  If so, did it work? Did wellbutrin help?  How soon did you notice a change when taking wellbutrin?

I just take 150mg of Wellbutrin. It works really well for me.

They say it takes about a month to start working but I felt better in about a week.

Before my pregnancy I was on both. I was 40mg of Celexa and I think 150mg of Wellbutrin at first, but then they lowered my dose. I did great after they lowered my Wellbutrin. I started taking the Celexa at night instead of during the day and that helped me too. I wasn't tired all day and I felt much better. Everyone is different though. I'm hoping that after my pregnancy I can go back to the combo I was on and see if it still works for me.
