"i have been trying to lose weight since october 2015. well, long before that, but october was when i became desperate. i suffer from depression, which had made me gain 16lbs in 2015 alone. i went to my doctor and asked about contrave after doing extensive research. i was on wellbutrin for depression and i felt like it had stopped working so i opted to go off of it and that allowed me to start contrave. i filled my prescription on december 16th. the drug made me  tired, but i never woke up tired. i woke up feeling very well rested. very slight headaches now and then, but nothing horrible. that was the only side effects i have had. it is 1/3/16 now. i went from 216 to 204lbs today. i&#039;m loving it!"
