"i&#039;ve been on wellbutrin sr 150 mg for depression and anxiety. i was very hesitant to try another medication after negative experiences with other meds.  i knew however that i needed more help than therapy alone, so i decided to give wb a try.  initially, i had some insomnia, nausea, headaches, and severe light sensitivity. however, these effects passed and were mild compared to how much better i felt. within 4wks i had more energy, felt less anxious, and the depression started to lift. i felt focused, peaceful, and content. all was well until about two months ago when some anxiety resurfaced (exams). doctor tried to increase dosage, but the side effects were terrible. so i remain on 150 mg, but still feel much better then my pre-wb days."
