helped for short time...then little response even at higher doses
Working / Worked
take it only prn, seems like it gives me extreme migranes when i take it

no big deal - wondering if it's really worth it
Working / Worked
It worked, sort of. It caused anxiety, which it isn't supposed to and my doctor took me off of it. It also caused decreased appetite. I had constipation and a little nausea with it also. I was on it at the same time as the Ritalin and it was not a good combination, except that it caused the Ritalin to be longer acting. I also had problems sleeping with Wellbutrin.

i like this one for the occasional hardcore bouts of depression.

Wellbutrin has been a real god-send. I've found that I have to take the name-brand; when I switched to generic, my depressive symptoms came back big time. I'm on name brand again, and feeling better again. Side effects: can't take my second dose too close to bedtime, because it wakes me up. Don't need coffee in the morning - wellbutrin does that for me. Has somewhat increased my anxiety. Kills my appetite.
