"after a couple of years of trying to cope on my own with ptsd, the symptoms became overwhelming, so i sought help. how glad i am that i did. wellbutrin has been amazing for me. for some lucky people, it takes effect very quickly, and that was the case for me: within three days, my profound sadness and paralyzing pervasive sense of despair was gone, replaced by a cheerful, calm outlook. i was stunned by the radical change! suddenly, i had energy, was able to again face daily challenges, and once again look forward each night to the next day. i haven&#039;t felt like this in years! the old me is back! side effects - nightmares &amp; tremor in arms - were minimal &amp; only during 1st week."
