Hi there,

Wellbutrin XL 150mg is my first antidepressant I've ever taken. Actually, it's the only prescription I've ever taken in my life, aside from antibiotics when I was a kid.

So, I'm 4 days in, and I can't sleep. Yesterday probably didn't help because I drank espresso at 5:00 pm (I would NOT recommend caffeine with this med from personal experience).

I am coming out of a major depression this last month, and have noticed GOOD improvement in my energy levels and motivation.

But what I've noticed is that my thoughts were just racing last night (again probably because of the caffeine/drug mix). I didn't get to sleep until 3:30 a.m., and woke up only 4 hours later.

How long will the insomnia last? I suspect it'll subside in 6 weeks. I read that 11% get insomnia the first time they're adjusting to the drug, but it never mentions the duration of insomnia.
