Wellbutrin aniexty and jitters

I just started 150mg of Wellbutrin 6 days ago and i already deal with aniexty but i find i have more with some headaches and jitters. I was on this med about 6 months ago for years and just found it didn’t work so i cant remember if i had these side effects or not. Can anyone give me some input. Lightheaded also but i think that’s aniexty as i usually deal with that crap everyday

Hello Sherrie44 :-)

I was wondering if you found the medication did not work before why you are trying it again ?

Would it not be worth talking with your Doctor and trying something different ?

With all medications there can come side effects but usually these settle down after a few weeks or so and if not then again it is worth talking with your Doctor

If it were me I think I would go back and tell them about the fact they did not help me before and I was getting these side effects and see what they have to say :-)

I have not taken the medication so can't give to much advise regarding the effects of them but hopefully if someone has they will reply and let you know :-)

Hope you will update us how you get on :-)

Take Care x

I wanted to try it again. The side effects will go away i cant remember if i had them when i started this before. I am also thinking of cannabis oil. I have heard a lot of good stuff about that also

Hello :-)

Well if I was you I would try not to think about what happened the last time you took them regarding side effects because even if you did get them they must have settled down as you carried on taking them and I would imagine the same will happen again if these are side effects they will settle down

I know years ago we would get tablets in a little brown bottle , the name of the tablet was on the bottle , your name and how many to take a day and that was it , there was no internet so you could go and look anything up and frighten yourself about them and you would just take them , now whether we got side effects or not because we were oblivious half the time that they could cause them we did not notice and would just get on with taking them

I know now they have to list all the side effects we get the leaflet with the meds and I do wonder especially with people like us suffering with anxiety how much we imagine them and how much we are actually getting them

I would carry on a bit longer and see how you feel :-)

Well I am in the UK which sort of answers your other post and I don't think here that Cannabis oil is illegal even though someone will correct me if I am wrong on that but not long ago I did watch a program where it was and people using it for health reasons were giving it the thumbs up , the program I watched was actually saying should the UK make it legal because of these findings

So only through a program I watched did I pick up it helps some people but again I would always run it pass my Doctor to make sure it would be safe for me to take and if you do try it let us know how you get on :-) x
