dont scare me i just started taking that med. dont seem to affect me.so far

If something is making you feel that way you are on the wrong medicine. Call your dr right away. When a antidepressiant is given to someone who really doesnt need it there can be adverse effects causing you to feel worse than you did before. Call and let them know you dont want it to get worse.

I'm bipolar and wellbutrin makes me a little shaky, but I am less depressed so I keep taking it. God Bless, whoever that is.

Did you just start it? It can have a stimulant affect. Being severely deppessed as i was it made it worst. It went away after a couple of weeks for me and now i've taken it for years with no side affects. Still, let your doc know and follow his instuctions.

Antidepressents do not work the same on each person. Contact your Doctor, sounds like you need to try another antidepressant. Its common to try a couple, or more to get to the one that works best for you. Dont drop the med abruptly without your dr knowing.You'll know you have the right one when you find you are "feeling better" about a lot of things.

You know, I thought I was being affected by that junk. But I stopped taking it. On my own, not recommended as it can cause sever depression and suicidal tendencies, and now I realize it was this other junk I'm on. Weird huh? But back to Welbutrin. That stuff isn't too bad. Depends on what dosage you're on and your age, as youth are more likely to suffer suicidal thoughts on anti-depressants, messed huh? If you think it's affecting you then go to a hospitol, don't just stop the medication. That can really screw you up. I did it, but I have a death wish. Kidding. or am I? No really, I'm kidding. But seriously go to a hospitol, or see your psychiatrist.
