I've been on Wellbutrin for a little less than two months now. At first, I felt great on it. Then I went on a trip to Europe alone and I experienced all the typical symptoms of depression that I'd had before. A feeling of deep loneliness and lack of hope for the future, tragic thoughts coming through my mind, total dependancy on people I had left on the other side of the Atlantic (and panick attacks if I failed to reach them when I needed - either because something could have happened to them or the idea that they could be avoiding me)... I kept taking my Wellbutrin quite reguarly, but on the low dosage my doctor had first prescribed to me, which is 150 mg (one tablet as I wake up in the morning). My question is: is wellbutrin the best for me, only a dosage increase being needed, or should I change medicines altogether? Since I never liked my doctor 100%, I decided to change doctors. I haven't been to the new one yet, but I've made an appointment with him for the day I'll take my very last Wellbutrin tablet from the previous prescription. Please, let me know what you think!
Thanks,
Ricardo
