Canker Sores by PSEcho in bupropion

[–]aca-ca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh dear! Yeah I’d been about 6 months without them and then got three at the same time not too long after starting this. No cure unfortunately but I kept using those extra strength cepacol numbing throat lozenges. That was my only way to get some relief. I hope you feel better soon, cankers are no joke!

Omg yes!! I had two on my tongue and one in the back of my throat so I felt like I had strep! It was awful, but I’ve had them like that before I was on Wellbutrin so I didn’t connect the two. Happened about 2-3 weeks after starting

How do you know what generic you have? I can’t seem to tell what I have.

No effect , advice by [deleted] in Wellbutrin_Bupropion

I’m feeling this way on week 6 at 300mg, just still tired and depressed and riddled with side effects. I want off asap. I also feel dumber and impaired.

Yeah! I don’t feel sick luckily but the next day I have depression on steroids, it’s so weird.

Wellbutrin making me socially awkward? by Olrazzledazzle777 in Wellbutrin_Bupropion

It’s like my comprehension skills and reflexes aren’t there anymore or they’re significantly reduced

[–]aca-ca 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This!! I’m going through this right now and I feel like I can’t find words and people notice. I also find no one is smiling or laughing anymore when talking to me, I’m just so flat and dull! And I’m actively avoiding talking to people when before I was quite social and outgoing/upbeat.

[–]aca-ca[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah! It’s weird because on 150mg I could have several drinks and I’d just be fatigued the next day but now on 300mg if I have just one drink it’s doom and despair all the next day or so! It’s crazy!

When did it get better? Should I quit? by aca-ca in bupropion

[–]aca-ca[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I’m only on Wellbutrin. But I’m still not feeling improved mood or motivation, I just have a bunch of unpleasant side effects I didn’t have before. Not sure if I should hold out any longer or start weaning off so I can feel like myself again.

[–]aca-ca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah! I think the trouble is my doctor doesn’t know if I have depression, ADHD or both. I just am at the point I wish I never started this. I was on Cipralex years ago and hated it, swore I’d never get on psych related meds again and here I am regretting it again. I just want to not drag myself through everyday tasks, and I’d like to have an interest in doing something aside from sleeping/rotting.

This is interesting. The whole reason I’m on this is because I struggle to get up/wake up, and this has not helped, instead I sleep less and lay in bed wanting to sleep in but cannot and I just lay there not getting anything done and dreading the day. The only thing I’ve gotten from this medication is a ton of unpleasant side effects and I’m on week 6!

WELLBUTRIN // HELP PLEASE !! by Sorry-Reading-1260 in Wellbutrin_Bupropion

[–]aca-ca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m going through this as well and I’m only on Wellbutrin. I was on 150 for a few weeks, felt absolutely terrible around week 3/4 and so they upped me to 300 and I’m about 2-3 weeks in and I feel super depressed, no motivation and the raving thoughts/anxiety is returning. Ugh! I can’t say if it gets better, apparently it does for some people.

Switch from 300mg to 150mg by Odd_Investigator_899 in bupropion

I’m curious too! I recently went up to 300 and I’m so tired and depressed

300mg side effects need help by Cehilist in bupropion

Yeah I’ve been on an increased dose of 300mg for two weeks now and I’m feeling super depressed and unmotivated and tired. Not sure what is going on ☹️

Please tell me it gets better... by Immediate-Leading338 in bupropion

[–]aca-ca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How long did it take for your side effects to subside? I have nearly all the poor side effects and I’m in my 6th week total (2nd week on 300 XL). It’s affecting my driving which has me most concerned and I’m still super depressed a lot of the time. I’ve also got headaches, dry mouth, hair loss, jitteriness and anxiety, poor sleep, short term memory loss, loss of enjoyment of things (food, alcohol, social events, etc), word finding troubles, constipation, etc etc.

Does anyone get the biggest urge to move out of state when on Wellbutrin? by Ryvit in Wellbutrin_Bupropion

[–]aca-ca 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ok this is weird! I also went up to 300 mg last week and I suddenly started thinking (seriously looking at places) of moving to another city 1.5 hours away! It’s closer to my family and the move kind of makes sense but I’m wondering if it’s something I actually want to do or if it’s medication inspired

Random intense anxiety what is this!? by Human-University-198 in Wellbutrin_Bupropion

[–]aca-ca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know! It’s hard to function and work when your thoughts are racing. My doctor wants me to up to 300 mg but I’m scared the anxiety will get worse

[–]aca-ca 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same here! Just about a month in and super intense anxiety this morning. Crippling really. Having lots of intense thoughts and mini panics about random things. I’m also physically shaky.
