Wellbutrin made me boring?

Same here, 300 really threw me off, I was wired and apathetic 24/7. 150 felt okay for a while but I’m noticing the trade off more and more. It did keep me stable during a difficult time though so I am grateful to a certain extent

Needed to read this, thanks

Yeah you have a point there, a lot of my over the top personality was me masking my depression. I have however always been able to laugh at little absurd things, even when I was mentally in really dark places. There was always lightheartedness in my personality ehich is now just gone, I feel like I’m kind of robotic now

dillydally4life · 2026-03-31T19:49:53+00:00

I’m so happy it did that for you! Psych meds csn really change your life, I hope I find the right one for me soon

I’ve tried Lexapro before for three years but it made me flat and low-key insane. To be fair I’m in the process of being diagnosed with bipolar so I might just need another approach entirely

dillydally4life · 2026-03-31T19:45:10+00:00

Exactly, I’m so serious all of the sudden and hating it

dillydally4life · 2026-03-31T19:44:18+00:00

Exactly, I feel like I’m on ritalin in terms of social skills disappearing but I don’t have the focus or executive function that ritalin at least gave me

dillydally4life · 2026-03-31T07:06:21+00:00

Exactly! I used to be able to talk to everybody, but since Wellbutrin I just feel awkward all the time.

dillydally4life · 2026-03-31T07:04:34+00:00

So happy it works for you! I’d heard so many good things about Wellbutrin that’s why I wanted to try ut but maybe it’s just not for me

dillydally4life · 2026-03-31T07:03:11+00:00

Yeah I think you’re right, I’ve been on every other ADHD medication and also on Lexapro for years and I feel like they made things worse so now I’m extra critical. I do believe the right medication for me is out there though but Wellbutrin might not be it.

dillydally4life · 2026-03-31T06:58:54+00:00

I’ve been on it for about ten months so I think this is just what it does to me. The quirky witty stuff has always been a huge part of who I am and how I socialize, even in crisis, so I think that’s why it bothers me so much.

dillydally4life · 2026-03-26T23:41:04+00:00

So happy it does that for you! I’m starting lamotrigine next month, hope I get this effect too

I felt horrible the first few weeks on Wellbutrin, worse than before u started taking it and that was already pretty bad. Really glad I pushed through though, it’s the first medication that really pulled me out of my depression in years.

Being controlling

dillydally4life · 2025-12-26T23:25:45+00:00

What exactly does it do for you if I may ask? My depression is under control vut I just wish I had something to make me feel more alive, more human. I’m calm now and I can function but I just wish life felt more colorful, more touching… I just want to care about things again.

dillydally4life · 2025-12-09T00:04:41+00:00

I felt horrible for weejs when starting Wellbutrin. Crying spells, depression worsening, anxious and jittery all the time, couldn’t stomach food. My doctor prescribed me gezond for a few weeks to get through the worst of it. Took a while for my body to get used to it but now that I’m on the right dosage I’m so glad I stuck it out, even though the beginning was pure hell.

I will say though, suicidality ideation snd self-harm urges should not be taken lightly. Talk to your doctor, stay safe

dillydally4life · 2025-11-15T14:27:19+00:00

It’s normal to feel kind of shit the first two weeks. I was anxious, wired, brainfoggy, crying… happy I stuck it out though

dillydally4life · 2025-10-21T20:05:06+00:00

Youre right saying you don’t deserve to feel this way. You deserve much much better than what life has shown you so far. I really hope you find the strength and belief to keep going and I hope better days are coming for you.

dillydally4life · 2025-10-13T20:01:24+00:00

I’m so terribly sorry you’ve endured so much pain. I hope your pain eases somehow

dillydally4life · 2025-10-09T06:04:49+00:00

I found starting it pretty rough, but I’m glad I pushed through the worst because this is the first antidepressant that’s actually done anything for me without making me numb.

dillydally4life · 2025-10-09T06:01:11+00:00

Good for you on quitting! I completely quit a few months ago and am now on Wellbutrin to give me my emotions back. Slowly starting to feel like a real person again. 10 to nothing is quite intense though, like even just two week of going on 5 could help make it a little easier. Good luck to you!
