I’m on day 9 of using Wellbutrin and I’m considering getting off. I had happy moments initially but have recently been met with anxiety and heart palpitations. It was great to not care what others think but the anxiety part got the best of me. BTW, there’s studies that show that Wellbutrin actually depletes dopamine because the body just has dopamine floating in the synapsis gap for extended period of times—what you may find is you’re happier at times but the reward factor that we are all missing is deleting. Btw, I took not having any feeling for granted—although I hate having no feelings, it’s not keeping me up at night like the Wellbutrin induced anxiety.
I did however notice one clue: it seems that SNRIs might have a clue that we are missing something. I lost about 5 pounds on the drug which makes me think that adrenaline and no adrenaline are not communicating properly.
