I was taken off welbutrin, but don't remember having any problems, but then again I was manic and was put on other meds.
What did your doctor say about it? On some meds you have to take lower and lower doses until you are off of it. I don't know if you have to do that with welbutrin or not. They just took me off cold turkey :)

I use to take wellbutrin, No problems come to mind when I changed, its been awhile so I probably forgot by now. From years on antidepressants, I do know its best to make changes slowly by decreasing the amount over time.

I was on Welbutrin for a while. It didn't help me at all. When I went off it was cold turkey as well. I don't remember having any withdrawals.
