"i was diagnosed with post traumatic stress disorder in 2003.  my doctor prescribed wellbutrin 150 mg. the depression and paranoia were still an issue until the dosage was increased to 300mg. i also take xanax 0.25 mg daily.  i have been on these medication to date.  i don&#039;t like being on any medications because of a feeling of dependency on a substance. when i weigh out the pros and cons i think my quality of life is 100 % better and i can function at a level which seems normal for me.  i wasn&#039;t able to pass a car on the highway without a panic attack.  since this medicine was introduced to me, i can do everything i use to before my diagnosis of ptsd."
