Hi everyone! Hope it's ok if I post here!
Since about March of 2011, I have been suffering with depression - crying, irritable, angry, just feeling miserable and not like myself.
I started taking Zoloft in September of 2011 (50mgs) and really saw a change in how I was feeling. I began feeling more like me again! What a relief! I did have some side effects though - 10 lb weight gain, profuse sweating in my sleep, and very vivid dreams.
I weaned myself off this past February because of these side effects, the weight gain was really bothering me! I started back on it last month though because I could feel the bad feelings creeping up again. I am only taking 25 mg because I am SO afraid of the weight gain. It's definitely not enough though to feel as though I am "normal."
Long story short, I am hearing some good things about Wellbutrin. Does anyone have personal experience with this medication? I'd love to hear some stories! Thanks for reading!
