Wellbutrin Weight Gain Posted: 01-09-06 23:18pm
I started taking wellbutrin sr about two
weeks ago. I (cut)quarter the 100 sr and
take only 25 mg. Once in the morning.
This is the only antideppressant that has
helped me considerably. I feel like
getting up in the morning. I have good
energy. I stay focused. I am 98% better
in my impulsive behavior. My mood swings
are 80% better. The only things I don't
like are i've gained 7 pounds and I did
experience constipation which has gotten a
little better.I'm not eating any more than
usual and I excersice plenty. I heard if
you up your dose it might balance out.
Has any one else expeienced this and does
your body usually re-ajust???

Ive just been taken off wellbutrin xl 150
mg because of all the freaky side effects.
I think it did make me gain some weight
because I was about 10lbs skinnier before
I started taking it. It gave me a rapid
heartbeat and it also made me pee a lot I
know that sounds weird but I swear to god
its true.
