Can using a medication that targets depression but is not approved for anxiety still wipe out anxiety?

Posted by admin on June 6th, 2010

I was wondering if perhaps the anxiety could be rooted in the depression and therefore getting rid of the depression could get rid of the anxiety. For me the drug I'm adding is Wellbutrin and I'm already taking Lexapro. I'm hoping this could better treat my social anxiety and also my depression.

   maybe they're the same problem. medication can't change the way you think. if you're concerned about a specific social situation maybe you have good reason to be?
