An Update on Me

[Princess_Aurora]

For those of you that might remember my trip to the dr last week...

I've been on the Wellbutrin for almost a week now. I increased the dosage from one a day to two a day starting Friday. Yesterday, I actually noticed a BIG difference. I actually have ENERGY! I have almost forgotten what it was like to actually have energy. While I was straightening up the living room yesterday, I started organizing, reorganizing, and repositioning all my furniture. It was like once I started I couldn't stop. For the past couple of months I've been complaining that DS hasn't had very much room downstairs to crawl around and learn to walk. So I moved around all the furniture downstairs and now he has TONS of room to crawl and push his walker around. And this morning when I woke up, I could actually get out of bed. Usually DH has to tell me several times to get up and this morning I actually got up before him. It's weird, but now that I'm feeling this good, I can actually look back and realize how bad I was before...no energy and no motivation and not even being able to get through the day without a nap. I feel so much better now, and I'm glad I went to the dr

I don't know you so there is no way for me to know if you have any addictive habits, such as smoking. But in case you do smoke I just wanted to let you know that a side effect of Wellbutrin is a reduction in withdrawal symptoms. I am taking a similar drug [Zyban]. I started on 5/16 [1 a day], went to 2 a day on 5/20, and had my last cigarette at 5pm 5/16.
I have smoked for 40 years and have tried to stop several times over the last 10 years and was never able to make it thru the first 24hrs. I am now at 72 hours without a smoke and only feeling mild withdrawal.

Congratulations philaround! Now you can save your cigarret money for Disney Trips to reward yourself!!!

Yes, I read on the label that Wellbutrin had the same ingrediants as Zyban and it says if you are taking Zyban to not take Wellbutrin so you don't overdose.
