I take a magical cocktail of meds which includes Welbutrin & Prozac which are a great mix for me. They are both activating antidepressants which help (me) with energy and focus and my depression is manageable. I've been on Wellbutrin for about 7+ years and I haven't had any noticeable side effects.

It has been a game changer for me. Totally gives me motivation, I have goals now. I haven't been depressed since having it added to my other meds. It has opened up my mind and helped me to be able to work on my BPD as well! It's a magic pills for me!

I am 4 days away from being on 150 XL for one month. I still feel off and my blood pressure seems to be rising.

I take it with Cymbalta and it helps a bit more than the Cymbalta alone did

I have been on Wellbutrin for at least 15 years and it's worked well for me. I had to try many meds, include combos, and once i started it, it was almost miraculous! I don't have any side effects that I'm a aware of!

I've been on wellbutrin for over 20 yrs now and it's been very helpful for me as far as depression is concerned without any side effects interfering. I have also started taking naltrexone with it because together they cause appetite suppression without a stimulant and I've lost over 40 lbs. Kinda love wellbutrin.😁

Thanks for your input! I was on Lexapro before as well but a genetic test revealed that it (along with several other meds) doesn't work with my genetics. Weight gain is a concern of mine too so good to know I'm on a good med for that 😊
