i started wellbutrin xr (150mg) about a week ago and i haven’t experienced appetite loss, in fact, i feel like i’m starving at night and it makes me constantly wake up. i decided to start taking it in the morning instead of night like i had been doing, and since then, i’ve been experiencing an insane appetite throughout the day. it’s only been two days of this, but it’s insane. i don’t mind it for weight gain, because that’s been one of my biggest health goals, but it’s making me feel so sick to be constantly feeling hungry like half an hour after eating a big meal. has anyone else experienced this? and if so, did it last for a while?

      I take 300 in the morning mostly because it's energizing for me and it helps survive a day. 450 in a week triggered horrible manic episode.

        @blueflovver that's why I'm concerned the psychiatrist that said welbutrin was okay might have overlooked my bipolar

          @livvie361 Wellbutrin is very okay for bipolar, SSRIs absolutely all without exceptions caused mania at lowest dose for me lol. Wellbutrin does it only at the highest so that's pretty good.

      I started at 150, went to 300, now on a month trial of 450. Food is absolutely awful and I don’t care if I ever eat again. It does subside, but this 450 is killer

      It does last a little bit but eventually stops, especially at the higher dose
