Depression
"I went on this drug with the promise of a reduced risk of weight gain, something I experienced a lot of with my previous drug, Lexapro. I was put on Wellbutrin XL 150mg once a day and the first two weeks were miserable. I attribute it to not only the adaption of the new drug but also the withdrawal of Lexapro. The first two weeks of Wellbutrin I was extremely nausea and couldn&#039;t eat much more than a few bananas and some juice a day. I was also exhausted and would sleep for hours after classes and go to bed early as well. Now that I&#039;ve been on it for 8 weeks I&#039;m quitting cold turkey as it has increased depression and suicidal thoughts and I feel worse than before."
