Hi, and welcome to the forum!

It is a pity that you are have such side effects on Wellbutrin. Which one are you taking and which dosage? Are you taking any other medications with it, such as a mood stabiliser?

It took me a lot longer, I think almost 6-8 weeks before I stabilised on Wellbutrin XL 300 mg. I do remember feeling very depressed, and the doctor moved it up after about 4 weeks.

Wellbutrin was hard to get used to and stabilise, but it has proved to be a very, very good meds for me .

I feel better now that I ate some food, just a little anxious, and maybe a little depression, but not as bad as it was, I take 150mg SR twice a day, first one at about 8:30 in the morning, the second 2pm.

I don't know what made me open up a topic saying that I was very depressed, and that I had panic attacks, because now I feel just fine, actually now I think this medication is working well, and I just been taking it for 2 weeks, I hope I get even better, o yeah I also started feeling that my ADHD is not as bad as it was, I can focus, before I couldn't even write a sentence, everything I wrote was at least one sentence or two, now I feel good about typing more and more, it feels good to tell people how you feel.
