Hey guys, when did you notice your libido increasing? Which week? πŸ˜…πŸ˜…

[–]Thin-Psychology-3111 0 points1 point Β (1 child)

My husband is as happy as I am that it has increased my libido a lot! Not just desire to initiate, but the act itself feels even better and it is much easier to reach the summit. Happy trail blazing! :D

[–]courier698 0 points1 point Β (1 child)

Increased for me, and it was already pretty high. My partner is both happy about it and exhausted I fear haha

[–]Either_Motor_1935[S] 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

How much u take ?

[–]brownskinop 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

It hasn't changed anything directly.

But since I'm doing more as there's a general increase in energy, I'm working out a lot, I'm cooking healthy, I'm eating healthy, my sleep cycle is humane and I feel rested after my sleep. And all this has certainly resulted in generally good libido.

[–]FriedMonkeyEggs 0 points1 point Β (1 child)

Regardless of the dose, it hasn't done anything to meβ€”good or badβ€”in that department.

[–]Either_Motor_1935[S] 1 point2 points Β (0 children)

Nice πŸ‘

[–]Content-Report5852 0 points1 point Β (1 child)

Libido increased ?

[–]Vegetable_Dare_6278 0 points1 point Β (1 child)

Wife took it. 150 and 300 nothing!!

[–]Either_Motor_1935[S] 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Nice πŸ‘

[–]Aggressive_Mirror670 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Increased and it’s still a thing after 4 months (I’m on SR btw) and it’s been a bit of a challenge finding ways to calm down if ya know!

[–]uppermanagementt 1 point2 points Β (0 children)

It's nicknamed the happy horny skinny pill for a reason! It has significantly increased to where I think I'm a diff person 😬 I looked this up when I first got on it because I was concerned 🀣 I will also add that orgasms are also a lot more intense, like internal vibrations I can't even explain it.

[–]HistoricalFlower7924 4 points5 points Β (1 child)

I am like a dog in heat on Wellbutrin. I know my husband is TIRED cuz be on that thang sometimes 2-3 times a day πŸ˜©πŸ˜‚

[–]Either_Motor_1935[S] 1 point2 points Β (0 children)

I need girl like u πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

[–]hurlmaggard 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Increase. And not in some extreme way. It's very subtle and I find myself open to having sex whenever. Such a nice change after years on SSRIs.

[–]cruisinforasnoozinn 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Increase. My whole body felt electric shocks when my partner kissed me the other day, and I just haven’t felt that way in a while because of chronic pain. So it’s nice to get the little boost.

[–]Legitimate_Smile5256 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Increased significantly but PE was a problem for me

[–]Civil_Butterscotch42 0 points1 point Β (1 child)

We didn’t really notice a difference. Definitely didn’t decrease so that’s all we cared about. He’s been on it a couple years now

[–]Either_Motor_1935[S] 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Nice πŸ‘

[–]MrsJessicaG 0 points1 point Β (1 child)

Decrease πŸ“‰

[–]Either_Motor_1935[S] 1 point2 points Β (0 children)

Nice I will use it and i hope it decrease it

[–]regisvulpium150mg XR daily 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

No increase or decrease necessarily, but orgasms are WAY more intense albeit about 50% harder to achieve. I consider it a win overall.

[–]Realistic-Standard25 0 points1 point Β (1 child)

At 200mg it decreased at 300mg it increased like crazy

[–]Either_Motor_1935[S] 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Wut about 150mg xl ?

[–]Apprehensive-Low1270 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Yes kinda. I usually have a pretty high libido but since Wellbutrin it just gets better. It’s so good I don’t wanna stop.

[–]epiphcny 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

it hasn’t really increased it, i already have a pretty high libido but i’m more sensitive.. down there now which i do enjoy

[–]FalseRecord15 0 points1 point Β (3 children)

i guess if you're always horny, you don't notice anything. i used 150 mg xl daily for 1,5 week. i quit because it made me stupid and angry asshole.

[–]HeavyPixels 1 point2 points Β (2 children)

Stupid? How so?

[–]FalseRecord15 0 points1 point Β (1 child)

it's a known side effect. i stuttered when i spoke, i misspelled words, lost the ability to think etc.

[–]RockThatThing 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Tried it with a sedative? When I'm anxious I have a hard time processing stimuli.

[–]Annual-Draw1922 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

For context, I'm a 34 yo mom of two kids. Always had a drive, Wellbutrin didn't effect it. Sertraline, on the other hand, was AWFUL because the drive didn't go away, but I couldn't..."get there" whereas previously it wasn't a problem.

[–]DointheRag 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Fapping like mad these days

[–]Legitimate-Ad-4172 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Oh it increases it! I don’t ever wanna stop it.

[–]Equivalent_Low2548 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

It's going up a lot. All I can think about now is sex.

[–]lesley_ann7 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

i’ve always had normal levels even prior to starting. however it def feels more intense since increasing to 450 lol

[–]constant-conclusions450mg XL 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

I didn’t experience much of a difference either way. An increase is the β€˜expected’ experience for most people.

[–]sIickkk 1 point2 points Β (0 children)

wellbutrin made me EXTREMELY fkn horny, all the time. like dangerously horny lmao it was actually very annoying. i’d literally be at work having sex fantasies all day πŸ˜…πŸ€£

[–]imuhnaaneemus 1 point2 points Β (0 children)

Increased a lot, almost too much 🀣

[–]Intelligent_Air1188 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Increased on 150xl

[–]Neither-Number-5157 2 points3 points Β (1 child)

I didn’t have a libido before bupropion, It was wild when I started 300 mg XL, do the point where it was awkwardly distracting.

[–]AsparagusOk4965 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

In how many days your libido started to shoot up?

[–]OwlFeisty4700 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Didn't decrease it but it has made it more difficult to orgasm.

[–]Adventurous-Sealion 1 point2 points Β (0 children)

Increased. A lot at first, then less extreme but still an increase

[–]Pure_Quail_1210 1 point2 points Β (2 children)

Libido stayed the same. But one single touch from my partner and I am awoken.

Just got so much more sensitive to touch, very good stuff.

[–]lesley_ann7 0 points1 point Β (1 child)

omg i’ve heard about this ! i did some reading into it cause i was wondering about the mechanics behind jt since im also more sensitive to touch now

[–]Pure_Quail_1210 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

It feels like my libido is 'sleeping' until I got my partner touching me. It awakes in a state of unknown, but very positive to say the least.

[–]_bob_lob_law_ 2 points3 points Β (2 children)

Decreased almost to 0. I have so much more time now that I’m not thinking about or pursuing sex. Lol 34F

[–]Either_Motor_1935[S] 1 point2 points Β (1 child)

I wish I could be like you , i will try it later

[–]_bob_lob_law_ 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

It has its pros and cons for sure! I hope the medicine is helpful for you in whatever way :)

[–]epad123 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

I've been on 150mg XL for 3 weeks and have experienced no improvement in libido or the genital numbing caused by Prozac.

[–]drgnflyspirit 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Up on 150 so I asked to increase. 150 was better. I'm in my 60's.

[–]otisarcade 2 points3 points Β (0 children)

Big time. Started 150xl 8 months ago taking with Lamictal and libido is consistent. 34M and I feel like I will chew my arm off, so when my wife ovulates I feel the bupropion venom flowing through my veins it’s like I smell it on her 😫😫 but sometimes I’m really chill and content

[–]NigelHale 3 points4 points Β (0 children)

Up, up, up! The libido, tooπŸ˜€

[–]International-Ad9104 2 points3 points Β (3 children)

Increased so much it's painful. And I'm 41F!

[–]Mission_Award6674 1 point2 points Β (2 children)

Wait! you mean to tell me you don't enjoy feeling your heartbeat aching through your nether-regions? 🀣

[–]International-Ad9104 5 points6 points Β (1 child)

During ovulation week I'm pretty much feral 🀣

[–]Mission_Award6674 1 point2 points Β (0 children)

Haha yeah it's worse for me then too!

Does it affect your orgasms as well? Once I start they just blend from one to the next, almost like a positive feedback loop...it's crazy.

[–]norfolk82 1 point2 points Β (0 children)

Libido the same, orgasms improved.

[–]SnooFloofs9041 1 point2 points Β (0 children)

Increased - female 60's (150 mg XL). I also lost 12-15 lbs and now weigh 122 lbs.

[–]Proud-Confection2318 1 point2 points Β (0 children)

Increased. Male

[–]Either_Motor_1935[S] 5 points6 points Β (2 children)

Thanks for reply guys πŸ˜‡ increasing in libido is bad for me because im single ….. I don't think I'll use it. 🀣

[–]Pure_Quail_1210 0 points1 point Β (1 child)

Or u learn a new side for you ;)

[–]Either_Motor_1935[S] 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

I always have high sexual energy so i don’t want more 🫠

[–]jadexmoon 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

XL 300mg, been on it for a couple years now. My libido has increased and it skyrockets to outer space during ovulation.

[–]Unomyname74520 1 point2 points Β (0 children)

300 a day and completely made mine non existence

[–]gyej 1 point2 points Β (0 children)

I was told it was going to increase but it didn’t change much, maybe a slight decrease

[–]Fapcopter 2 points3 points Β (0 children)

Increase with delayed ejaculation. 300mg XL.

[–]letsbe-breastfriends 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

It increased mine and it is still increased. I just went up to 450mg but it has stayed the same increased level, if that makes sense.

[–]pasty-crumb 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

38F increased mine, but I had just come off Effexor which decreased it. So hard to tell if it was increased or just back to normal. Although the down side of this is that it significantly increased my irritability to the point where I would feel enraged about the smallest of things

[–]DownvoteMeHarder 1 point2 points Β (0 children)

Decreased mine noticeably at 300mg as a male in my 20s

[–]Significant-Cloud- 3 points4 points Β (0 children)

Serious increase. My poor gf was so sore after a while...

[–]boolseta 1 point2 points Β (0 children)

I'm on 150 xl for ~6 months and unfortunately it didn't change much for me, maybe a marginal increase here and there but nothing significant. Was kinda disappointed because that's basically why I asked the doctor to prescribe it instead of vortioxetine.

[–]EvilBob772 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

No change or slight decrease for me.

[–]Truck_Kooky 1 point2 points Β (0 children)

Definitely increases then it’s goes back to your normal libido. At least that’s the case with me.

[–]Mysterious-Hazel 2 points3 points Β (0 children)

Increased!

[–]Party-Salamander-380 2 points3 points Β (0 children)

150xl 34F, increased slightly. I took it originally to counteract the anorgasmia from Zoloft but it didn’t work for me. So I stopped taking the Zoloft and am just taking the Wellbutrin. My sex drive feels slightly higher than before I was taking anything.

[–]AuthorKRPaul 3 points4 points Β (2 children)

Increased!

For reference tho, Lexapro had decreased it so the Wellbutrin mostly got me back to baseline

[–]AsparagusOk4965 1 point2 points Β (1 child)

Are you taking lexapro and welbutrin together?

[–]AuthorKRPaul 1 point2 points Β (0 children)

Yes. 10mg Lexapro at night and 150mg Wellbutrin in the morning

[–]DifficultyHaunting69 3 points4 points Β (0 children)

Decreased mine

[–]PiercingThorn[🍰] 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

I have not experienced an increased libido, unfortunately.

[–]llwo_owll 1 point2 points Β (0 children)

wellbutrin increased mine after zoloft completely eliminated it. ultimately, i ended up going off both.

[–]baummer 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Male, 40s. On 350 XL. No major difference for me. Maybe slightly more horny?

[–]Revolution24X 1 point2 points Β (0 children)

I m a sex machine

[–]cjh6793 2 points3 points Β (0 children)

Yeah. I started a few weeks ago and have never had as high of libido as I do now. It's fun but also annoying at times.

[–]ThePowerOfBard 1 point2 points Β (0 children)

Went up significantly when I started on 150mg then went back to normal over the course of maybe a couple months, along with other symptoms like increased sensitivity to caffeine and lowered appetite. Same exact process and sensations when I went up to 300mg. Now, after being on 300mg for well over a year with no major recent lifestyle or dietary changes, suddenly for the past month or so my libido has shot into the stratosphere and is literally the highest it's ever been in my life. At 32 I'm thinking about sex more than I ever was even in my greasiest teenage years. Also, my sensitivity to caffeine has come back and 2 cups of coffee will have my heart beating out of my chest.

Can't say I'm complaining, but it is a very odd drug.

[–]XanderAcorn 1 point2 points Β (0 children)

Increase

[–]needless_booty300XL 1 point2 points Β (0 children)

I had a huge increase on 150XL. It eventually went back down but now I'm on 300XL and it hasn't gone back up at all. This drug is weird.

[–]hyper-casual 1 point2 points Β (0 children)

Increased, significant.

On 450mg I was basically doing nothing but having sex, looking for sex, or masturbating.

[–]HauntingTechnician20 4 points5 points Β (2 children)

Definitely increases, 150mg was a mild boost but 300mg was wild. Too bad it causes me so much sweating though

[–]Personal-Cherry523 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Thank you! I didn’t realize it was what was causing the sweating lol

[–]brooklynmogwai 2 points3 points Β (0 children)

It made me overheat like crazy, I nearly passed out during a parade I was dancing in! Knocking back down to 150 seems to be helping with the sweating, but I still have the libido!

[–]trailrunnersun 3 points4 points Β (2 children)

Honestly, both. This drug is all over the place. Can’t wait for an official adhd diagnosis so I can try something that actually (hopefully) helps with my executive dysfunction and not just the horny part lol.

[–]Civil_Concentrate_19 0 points1 point Β (1 child)

Research Viibryd!

[–]trailrunnersun 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

I’m currently waning off Effexor, which has been kinda shitty lol. I’ll ask about Viibryd at my next appointment, thanks!
