Bupropion
depression
"My doctor put me on Bupropion SL 150 mg once daily for depression and inability to handle stress.  In the past I've taken Elavil, Celexa, St. John's Wort and Lexapro. Lexapro made me gain weight (40 lbs in 1 year) although it did help with the depression.  I accidentally took 2 pills the 3rd and 4th day I was on Bupropion and felt a little manic, although I did get a ton of chores done. It pretty much kills my appetite, which is a wonderful side effect because just losing weight helps me not feel so depressed. I've already lost 5 lbs in the week since I started taking it. Since I feel I also suffer from SAD I'm looking forward to seeing how this medicine will help me through the winter.  If Bupropion works for me I plan to stay on it forever."
