I now have energy without the jitters or shakes and I really feel good and can get up in the mornings with a wonderful attitude. I am not easily agitated nor screaming at the top of my lungs.

The only negative is the eating. I thought this was suppose to suppress the appetite but overall I am well pleased with the results so far and I only wish I could have started this many moons ago.

I left the review below this one a little while ago. I just wanted to come back and say that my pharmacy recently gave me a generic called bupropion made by global. Beware this stuff does not work. I was back to my depressed and compulsive self within a week. I realized what was going on and went back to budeprion and was better within 2 days. Just wanted to give everyone a heads up.

This med works good for me. I switched from lexapro to this because lex made me too tired. Budeprion sr immediatly helped my lethargy and compulsive behaviors, in about 1 week my insomnia was gone and my mood is just now starting to improve at 4 1/12 weeks.

My Dr. says full mood effect can take 1-2 months to begin. The 1st week was rough due to the stimulant effect of this medication, I was shaking pretty bad and just felt like I was high as a kite. This passed though and I have no problems with it at all.I do have to take a stool softener because of the constipation that seems to come along with this med.

In addition to working well with my depression,it energized me somewhat as compared to SSRI's.To my surprise and the surprise of my treating professional,it completely eliminated a compulsive disorder I had in conjunction with my depression.I plan to research this further.This may be related to Wellbutrins effect on Dopamine levels.

I know it is marketed as Zyban to treat smoking addiction,and the effect on my compulsive behaviors could be similiar to the effect on an addiction.

This medication gave me severe insomnia. I didn't want to combat it with a sleep aid so I decided to stop taking it. It made me shaky and nervous.
