Allie,

I take 375 mg of Effexor per day. That is a different type of anti-dep. It works in a different way. I have been on it for about five years. I only started the Wellbutrin when I went through treatment. The anti-anxiety drug is an old one. It is buspar. I never had panic attacks, but was a constant worrier. It seems to help with that. I have no significant side effects with any of these meds.

I hope you daughter does well. Getting the right medication is very important and often takes a long time.
