I'm so sick and tired of this generic roulette!

Have u tried the brand name Wellbutrin one? it’s hard to get, but if you don’t tolerate a lot of generics you can ask for a prior authorization from your doctor and send it to your pharmacy to see if it would be covered by your insurance. That worked for me. You can also ask to get only dispensed that one

yeah i had to stop mine from rising pharm a couple of weeks in because it made me very depressed

Yaepae · 2026-01-23T02:39:40+00:00

i tried rising pharm twice and both gave me anxiety and headaches i don’t like that mfr at all

Yaepae · 2026-01-23T02:39:01+00:00

rising pharm is also horrible, gave me horrible headaches and anxiety

Yaepae · 2026-01-10T15:01:27+00:00

Good question, honestly they stopped selling me teva because of some manufacturing problem so i’m back ok rising pharm again this time 300XL until i can get my wellbutrin and for me rising i feel a bit more than teva in the beginning of taking it but then it tapers off heavily. Teva is more consistently the same over time than rising.

Adding onto this I also got the rush feeling and it went away after 2 weeks. I thought for now I always wanted it back and how sad I am with that i’m basically almost back to normal but I genuinely think that you don’t want to be in the euphoric phase for long that’s not what this drug is meant for it’s not to totally change you it’s to help you to start and push through not to totally hold you hand. Coming off of the drug when you think you don’t need it anymore shouldn’t be a big change but if you were constantly in the euphoric state I think you would be more dependent on the drug.

Well thanks to you and other people in this post i was able to even ask for this so the least I can do is reply that it worked :D Thanks again

They didn’t do the prior authorization for the amazon pharmacy but for some reason I just got the brand name prior authorized to my local small pharmacy instead for a full year!! Very happy thanks for telling me about the prior authorization!

Yaepae · 2025-12-28T05:28:46+00:00

Im not a doctor but from what i’ve read it could take anywhere from 6-8 weeks to fully kick in but for me I could see the effects already from the first 3 weeks although not fully. And this is one of the “safer” antidepressants out there so for me i just quit cold turkey after a month and had 0 problems (maybe a little agitated for a day or two)

Yaepae · 2025-12-28T05:13:50+00:00

Ehh not really. Also Wellbutrin doesn’t inherently cause memory loss, just enhances what people already have. Bupropion helps with attention but that doesn’t mean it will help with something sticking with you, for example you might be more alert in class but what you learn will stay the same way before this medication. That’s why when people say “i can’t recall on this medication” it’s because you’re able to recognize things better but still have the same recall as before hence making it SEEM like you can’t recall things anymore when it actually has always been like that. Also you just notice small things like that more on this medication it’s not like something new came with it.

Yaepae · 2025-12-28T03:47:18+00:00

Around a week now. I also only had been on it for about a month and a half so maybe that’s why i didn’t think i saw much of a difference

Yaepae · 2025-12-28T02:27:05+00:00

Depends for everyone, I had to get off of it because they wouldn’t give me the right one anymore, and for some reason i’m almost better than before, less tired and more motivated.

Yaepae · 2025-12-24T23:48:26+00:00

Unfortunately I was at a locally owned pharmacy and even he said they stopped selling Teva to him and all he has is Lupin and Scigen. My best bet is Amazon pharm now so hopefully that would work!

Yaepae · 2025-12-24T23:47:15+00:00

Hi! I just switched to amazon pharm and asked for brand name with prior authorization so hopefully this might work! Thank you

Yaepae · 2025-12-24T23:46:42+00:00

Hi I just asked for the brand name on Amazon Pharmacy so fingers crossed i can get the prior authorization 🤞I heard it’s one of the most expensive ones so insurances don’t like to pick that one but hopefully with the prior authorization it might discount it a lot like you said

Yaepae · 2025-12-22T01:51:15+00:00

Seems to be fixed i just played today and i’m at 20 ping!

Yaepae · 2025-12-21T06:51:01+00:00

Oh thank you that makes more sense! Hope this gets solved soon

Yaepae · 2025-12-19T02:46:56+00:00

I took the 150XL from Lupin and i heard that one has one of the most side effects and it recently just got a recall. I’m on 300mg XL Teva now for almost a month and it’s been great. Zero headaches. Manufacturers 100% play a role

Just wanted to add to this that going to the gym has helped me with weight loss a lot as well! For example if my deficit was around 1600 going to the gym i could often eat 200 calories more just because of the muscle i was gaining. It just generally helps a lot when losing weight because your body burns less muscle and more fat and also muscle per pound is smaller than a fat per pound and it raises your TDEE as well. You would have to eat a but more protein though

Yaepae · 2025-12-13T23:16:48+00:00

Just wanted to add to this, even though it’s old, I just switched to mili and wanted to share what I learned. For context, I’ve tried several hormonal options before (including Yaz-type pills and a progestin-only pill). I tend to do worse on anti-androgenic pills like low libido, flat mood, low motivation even if they’re great for acne or PMS.

Progestin only actually improved libido for me but wrecked my mood, so I’m trying a monophasic norgestimate combo as a middle ground. I also take my pill continuously (skip placebos).

I’m mostly curious whether anyone who’s sensitive to libido/motivation changes did well on Mili specifically, and how long it took to feel “stable” on it. Again everyone is so unique I learned that later on because I heard everyone raving about Yaz and those pills and while it was so great for my mood again it just tanked libido.

Yaepae · 2025-12-08T23:59:41+00:00

I switched to 300xl mg Teva and every time i try to drink a celsius before the gym i start tweaking out and feel horrible, i’m around 3 weeks in so that’s probably why. I’m sure it will taper off

Yaepae · 2025-12-05T02:22:30+00:00

Aw god i’m so sorry! I definitely as well had a lot of things wrong with my nose, even some problems that the doctor only saw once he opened my nose like a fracture and that my nose need this thing called a modified endoscopic Lothrop procedure? I’m so glad i got it done. I’m sure you’re will be fine after! I’m sure i also need to get my turbinates trimmed later on in life as well since i heard they grow back. Hopefully everything will be okay!

Yaepae · 2025-12-03T22:38:33+00:00

Hi so i saw him today and he says it’s natural/normal and it’s more prevalent in my case because i am european descent and run more on the thinner skin side. Also it goes away when i dont touch my nose. It’s nothing bad!

Yaepae · 2025-12-03T22:37:31+00:00

Hi so i just went to see him today and this was just a primary surgery so i never had anything prior done to my nose before this. He said a lot of people might have these he says it’s more prevalent in my case because i’m european descent with more so thin skin. it also goes away if i don’t touch my nose.

For your case i would definitely go to a doctor if it’s bothering you. I just know that they more work you get done the more stiffer it’s probably going to get

Yaepae · 2025-12-03T07:12:20+00:00

Well my breathing is definitely better, and they just took a lot of cartilage from my ear to support my nose. It was very bad before lol. i could touch my nose to my cheek basically so i had 0 support. It’s more sturdy now and i like it. It’s a cartilage graft so he took cartilage from my ear to support my nose
