I have dysthymic disorder and GAD. Wellbutrin makes me feel so much better. It gives me lots of energy and gives me a general feeling of well being.

This was the first drug I was treated with for depression/mood disorder at 14 and now at 23 I have found my way back to it, combined with a dose of Ritalin. This has been the only drug that doesnt make me tired or hazy or constantly hungry and craving carbs.
