anxiety
"On 20 mgs Cipralex two years ago and gained almost 30 pounds.  Began taking Wellbutrin 150mgs three weeks ago after weaning myself off the Cipralex over a 2 month period.  A few side effects, dry mouth being the most noticeable.  150 mgs for two weeks and started 300 mgs this last Monday.  Huge energy boost...appetite is level and cravings are non-existent. I have to remind myself to eat.  I have lost 8 pounds in 3 weeks without changing anything in my daily routine.  I believe the ingredient in the medicine which helps a person to quit smoking has the same effect on appetite. It just stops the cravings, therefore stopping needless emotional eating or eating out of boredom. Anxiety was my major mood disorder but it has not affected me negatively!"
