Q: Can Anyone Relate?

I have just been put on wellbutrin xl (9 days ago) and i'm having these effects that aren't mentioned on the side effcts. It's like a tingly sensation that comes in waves from my head to my toes. You know that feeling you get when someone scares you? It also makes my heart race for a second only when I get that feeling. But it happends every few seconds and only lasts for a second. It also makes me feel like i'm on speed. Will this symptom go away? It didn't do it on the 150 mg and I was on that for 2 weeks and then he switched me to this. Should I be scared of this? Please help. Jjw3

Alot of people, when starting on new medications, will feel alot of those symtoms until your body gets used to it. Don't let the early effects scare you off. Stick to it for a couple more weeks, and see how you feel. I had alot of odd feelings when I started on lexapro, but stuck with it, and soon they went away.

Omg!!
Omg!!! I had the same problem w/ zolof...Unfortunally i'm not on it anymore, but the first night I took it I woke up about 3 in the morning tingley and freaking out. I had to call my fiance at work, to come home and get me and take me to the er...All they did was give me a zanax and send me home!!! So stick w/ it I know its a horrible feeling but it will help you. I have a question for u guys, do u ever feel out of it? Like your in a dream? Feel like this all the time...Also I wake up after like falling asleep for like 30min-1hour and it feels like my insides are just shaking, like my whole body is rocking? I have had blood work done they say I am fine. I didn't know if this was signs of a panic attack...I've been having rapid heart beat, shaking, hot/cold flashes...But that's pretty much gone. But the in a dream feeling is driving me nuts!!!

On the Answer From Lilamy22 On My Wellbutrin Sensations
Thanks! I'm trying to stick it out. But I scares me when my resting pulse jumps up to 95 a min. I've been taking it at least everyother day until I go to the Dr. Thurs. Also, I have those weird dreamy feelings too. It sounds like a panick attack to me though. Ive had plenty of those too! Well, thanks again. Jjw3
