Depression
"I started on wellbutrin about 8 months ago for clinical depression, and while it hasn&#039;t been a miracle cure, things could deffinitly be worse. It really has been a gentler medication in terms of side effects. The only medication I tried before this was lexapro, and geez was that rough (sexual side effects, extreme lethargy, brain fog, memory loss, weight gain etc). I switched to wellbutrin as an alternative, and experienced mellow side effects while adjusting (lethargy, drowsiness) which only lasted for about 3 weeks. 



Cons: Significant rebound depression if I miss a dose, insomnia if taken at night (it&#039;s a stimulant), occasional bouts of depression (it hasn&#039;t been a complete fix). Sometimes I&#039;ll get really bad brain fog if I mistime dose."
