"this medicine has saved my life.  i was on it for several years (300 mg) and felt it wasn&#039;t helping any more so i quit it on my own.  no problem quitting but a few months ago began feeling hopeless due to financial problems and could not do anything on weekends but lay around in bed and sleep my weekends away.  i couldn&#039;t get anything done and put important things off that needed to be done.  in just the last 2 days i can tell that i already want to get out of bed and do housework and get a shower. i didn&#039;t realize what wellbutrin xl did for me but i do now and am grateful i am back in it!"
