Advice & Tips
The drug did what is was suppose to; it lifted me right out of depression. I felt a definite improvement in my quality of life. It moderately suppressed my appetite. It increased restless sleeping.

Jul 13, 2010
Advice & Tips
All prior side effects I was experiencing (no orgasm, suppressed appetite) are gone. Too bad; I liked the whole suppressed appetite thing. I am about half way to what is considered to be 'therapeutic levels", I feel that Wellbutrin is already having a positive affect on my daily life.

Advice & Tips
Major con: between 100-150mg, lost the ability to have an orgasm. Sex drive is slightly heightened, libido is fine, but I cannot have an orgasm. Major pro: Curbs appetite, I am losing weight (which could be a con for someone who doesn't need to lose any. Still not at therapeutic dosage, so I will update.
Cost

Advice & Tips
Been taking this every day since last winter, helps to take the edge off, does not take the pain away, but definitely makes it more tolerable. helps with energy level. Medicaid screwed up my paperwork, so going cold turkey on this and like four other meds. Not sure which withdrawals are from what, but I feel like hell. Pain through the roof, depression, exhaustion. Very difficult. Hope they get it fixed soon, though I am not sure which meds I will continue, I am afraid of this happening again, and I have been completely non-functional for over a week now.
