    I really like the drug. I like the increase in energy. I like the increase in visual perception.
    I like the better attitude.
    What about you?

    unless you plan on taking it the rest of your life, don't forget that the withdrawl will have the opposite effects.

    I take it. I started getting up and doing things when I started taking Wellbutrin. I think it is helping. I don't want to stop just to find out if it is or not; even though I often contemplate not being on any psych meds.

    i took it once and had the worst experience of my life. it made me totally manic. might work for some, but definitely wasn't for me. i did get that "burst of energy" as i was wide-awake for 52 hours straight and had to be forced to go to bed by my ex as i didn't want to sleep. i laughed and cried at the same time, while on it; and thought i might kill myself not knowing how to control my actions and behaviour at the time.

    being on wellbutrin though helped the docs finally diagnose me as bipolar. so maybe wasn't all bad; but it was a week of hell for me.

    I hate it. I was on it for a few years. I stopped it about a month ago and I've been feeling a lot better without it. I was taking it for depression and ADD. I didn't really notice it helping me to pay attention in school or anything. I have friend that was on it, he also hated it. And as for the energy rush, now that I think about it, I guess it did give me some extra energy, but I can sleep more often or just drink some coffee.
