I have been taking 50 milligrams a day of Zoloft for about 5 months. It has helped with depression pretty well, and has been wonderful with getting rid of my anxiety. BUT like most, I have no sex drive and it extremely angers me. So I was wondering if I should take Wellbutrin with my Zoloft...or just take Wellbutrin? But will Welbutrin help with my anxeity? Have any advice?

Most people with this side effect try the combination first, and if that not work, then switch to wellbutrin, which works well, but takes a little longer to have an effect. Your doctor can help find the right dose combination.
