Switching from Wellbutrin to Celexa

I posted this earlier but no one answered so I thought I might try again!

I have been on Wellbutrin for over a year and my panic attacks came back in full swing and I went to the doctor and they swiched me to Celexa and I am worried that it is going to make me gain all of the weight back that I lost from going off of Zoloft I am also worried that it is going to make me tired like Zoloft did. Has anyone experienced this before?  The first day I switched I had horrible shakiness and BIG panic attacks.

Anyone have any advice or experiences to share!

Thanks!

I was on Wellbutin for about 9 months, It wasn't working. I switched to Celexa, I have only been on it for about 6 days. I can tell my appetite has increased. I did lose some weight with Wellbutrin, however, I don't think any amount of weight gain would be as bad as my anxiety attacks. I can tell the sexual affects are not good.

I was taking celexa for 4 years and it never gave me any weight and I was feeling very good while on it. However, it caused me sexual problems.
