Had a better outlook on things. Just got fed up with side effects. Trying Wellbutrin SR now.

I started on 20 mg for the first 2 months and now I am taking 40mg. In my opinion, this medicine is very good for "brain rush" anxiety and has made my life better. Some other things, though - weight gain - I have gained 12 lbs since starting the medication. Changes in bowel movements (loose stool sometimes), teeth grinding in my sleep, horrific nightmare and vivid dreams - I often feel like a zombie, no emotions, numb. This can be good in some cases. | 22 | 4 months | 10/21/2009 | 2 | | 11/13/2004 | 1 | did not take it | | 8/12/2005 | 1 | | 8/20/2006 |
