| 5 | for depression | wasn't hungry as much, more energy, legs and arms jerked at night....that's it | this stuff worked great for me and i love it. i was put on prozac and the sexual side effects were driving me crazy, but i did well on it. so i added the wellbutrin and my sex drive went through the roof...stopped smoking!!!!! | M | 24 | 6 months | 10/6/2001 | 1 | Depression | Agitation, Insomnia. | Horrible. | M | 20 | 30 days | 10/5/2001 | 4 | smoking | upset stomach, nervousness,sweaty | it is working for smoking.Had rough start then it started working. Was told take the 2nd dose before 5p.m.. Could effect sleep, stay up all night. have almost no cravings for cigs. Have to quit for back surgery. | M | 40 | 7 days | 10/3/2001 | 3 | increase sex drive | can't sleep, awake often, vivid dreams, metallic taste in mouth, heart palpitations, anxiety worse | I am up doing this at 11:00 pm, which is very late for me. I can't sleep well and when I do finally go to sleep I wake up a lot. I'm taking prozac for my depression and anxiety, which has decreased my sex drive, which is why I am taking the wellbutrin. Not sure if I like it or not. Was told to stay on 10 mg of the prozac because of the anxiety sid effect of the wellbutrin. | F | 29 | 1 weeks | 10/3/2001 | 4 | Mild to Severe Depression | The first few days i felt a bit spacey, but things seemed to bother or agitate me less. My orgasms had become more pleasurable and intense. I am losing wieght without changing my diet or exercise routine. I am sleeping less but do not feel tired, in fact, my energy level has increased somewhat. | So far I am satisfied with the results of the medication and am thankfull I was prescribed something as promising as Wellbutrin SR. When I was diagnosed with Clinical Depression I was afraid I wuld never be able to live my life productively. The way I am feeling these days, however, is a marked improvement from before I began taking the meds. | M | 34 | 3 weeks | 10/2/2001 | 2 | Moderate depression | Severe headache, nausea, slurred speech | Can't tell if it has impact on depression due to the side effects. I feel terrible physically. Most people mention loss of appetite. I gained 7 lbs in 2 weeks. Hungry all the time. | F | 37 | 14 days | 10/1/2001 | 3 | Smoking | I just started taking this about 7 days ago and have noticed sleeplessness, I never woke up before 7 a.m & now up at 5:30 or 6 no problem, but by 8:30-9 pm I am exhausted & go to bed. Some loss of appetite, which is great if loose wait & cut down on cigs already. | I only take this 1 time a day so far and may increase to 2x, but for now I am taking it slow. I can't take alot of meds & this seems to be agreeing with my system. I also noticed some sudden headaches. | F | 32 | 7 days | 9/15/2001 | 3 | depression | I have been taking this med only 2 weeks, so I can't say much. Side effects: weight loss, nausea, tremors, muscle tics, ringing ears all the time, agitation & anxiety, a lot of anger and I have never considered myself an angry person. | I do hope these side effects go away with time. The tremors are bad in my hands and legs. My writing isn't neat as it was, in fact, it is difficult for me to write with a pen. I am also a microbiology grad student, and I need steady hands to work with the bacteria. | F | 23 | 2 weeks | 9/5/2001 | 3 | anxiety/quit smoking | my head is "pulsing?", my ears seem to clog during this pulsing and I hear a loud buzzing noise. Dizziness, not sleeping well, waking often | F | 48 | 1 weeks | 9/3/2001 | 4 | Anxiety/Panic | Headaches, inability to lose weight | F | 27 | 2 months | 8/27/2001 | 5 | Depressionn | Severe loss of appetite!! Still smoking but nausea when i do. Very energetic (talking alot!) and motivated. Really good so far no bad side effects for me!!!! | F | 21 | 1 months | 8/26/2001 | 4 | depression | I was dizzy at first. | I feel a lot better now i do not sleep as much as i did when i was on paxil however with paxil i gained 80 pounds i lost 10 so far and have only been on this med for three months. sex life is back to normal | F | 23 | 4 months | 8/21/2001 | 5 | Manic-depression | My depression without the wellbutrin is so low that it is life threatening.(suicide) | M | 49 | 5 years | 8/14/2001 | 3 | mild depression | Some insomnia, intense dreams, increased appetite, but exercising more. My head itches so much and I have a rash on the back of my neck. Is anyone else suffering from this particular side effect? | Just taking the one morning dose of 150 MG. I do feel better, but might stop taking it because of the itching problem. | F | 56 | 6 months | 8/13/2001 | 4 | Moderate-Severe Depression | Thirsty all the time. | I can smile again. I am in a better mood more often. I am a smoker and it pretty much makes cigarettes taste bad to me. So have drasticly cut down on my smoking. I used to not have a libido, now I like sex.I recommend this drug for those who can take it. | F | 33 | 6 weeks | 8/11/2001 | 3 | DEPRESSION AFTER OPEN HEART SURGERY | UPSET STOMACH, SHAKY | I HOPE IT WILL HELP, I'LL STAY ON IT FOR AWHILE TO GIVE IT A GOOD TRY | F | 75 | 9 days | 8/2/2001 | 5 | Anxiety, depression | weight loss, some shakiness, some insomnia | I had packed on weight while taking Paxil and Zoloft, but I'm smaller now than I have been in years(size 5-7). I don't need to sleep as much as I used to although I still feel tired sometimes. | F | 42 | 8 months | 7/30/2001 | 5 | anxiety and mild depression | More energy and no mood swings or anxiety. I am finally happy again...life is great! | F | 54 | 2 months | 7/29/2001 | 1 | smoking cessation | Metallic taste in mouth, shakiness, very irritable. | Heard it has worked wonders for some but for me with my anxiety/depression it seemed to make matters worse. | F | 29 | 7 days | 7/29/2001 | 5 | perimenopausal depression | Some effect on sleep - sleep lightly and more easily awakened. Intensified dreams. Very slight increase in appetite(have gained no weight). Nothing problematic. | This drug doesn't impact my obsessive tendencies like Celexa did (during a short trial) but it has done a remarkable job lifting the depression. Felt highly energized beginning with the second dose. Hadn't planned to quit smoking, but am considering it as I've found I don't care nearly as much when I can't smoke for long periods of time (flying, etc.) Have definitely noticed the positive impact on libido and response. | F | 44 | 2 months | 7/17/2001 |
