Currently been on Wellbutrin for year and a half now. When I first started this medication it completely changed my life. (Everyday was the best day of my life) I stopped taking for a few months & realized I still needed it but since I am pregnant now my depression is way worse due to horrible pregnancy and am only on 150 mg vs 450 mg I was on b4. Still loved this medication. I also lost 30lbs in first month taking which also helped with self image issues after weight gain after birth of my son.

It made me shaky when I added it to the others to counter act the sexual side affects. But I am on it now by its self (I am pregnant) and it is helping take the edge off.
