Advice & Tips
This medication worked very well for me for anxiety/depression for a long time. I have hypertension that is hard to control and it was advised by my physician to come off of it. It has helped my blood pressure to decrease. There was also concern that I could get Serotonin overload since I am also taking Cymbalta and Nortriptyline. The affect on my blood pressure is the only side effect I ever had on this med. It really helped my depression and anxiety. I had no issues with taking it during the day. It certainly gave me a better quality of life as I was diagnosed many years ago with clinical depression.

I took this to mitigate an SSRI side effect, delayed orgasm. It speeded me up from an hour to 40 minutes and also increased the intensity of the orgasm. It also had a moderate effect on my depression

Advice & Tips
I find it effective for my depression. I sometimes am overly tired which I think is from the medication. It is hard to distinguish between too much Bupropion or not enough thyroid hormone.
