Hi Lexman,
My heart goes out to you. It's difficult when you're taking meds and they don't work as well as you'd hoped.
Can your doctor at the mhmr clinic phone in a prescription to your pharmacy or provide you with some Lexapro samples so you can try increasing your dose?
I'm currently taking 15 mg of Lexapro and have had a very positive experience increasing my dose from 10 mg to 15 mg, it has helped a great deal with my depression and anxiety.
If you decide to give up on Lexapro you might try taking Paxil or Prozac. Both seem to be pretty good meds. Or you could try adding Wellbutrin to your combo again and take something like Xanax to help with the anxious feelings it causes.
Good luck to you, I hope you find a solution that leads you to happiness.
K.
