Greg - Are you taking at least 300mg of Wellbutrin daily? I too, lost my energy on Wellbutrin after a couple of months, but after another three months I am still not spiraling into black pit of despair, where I once was. I too, occasionally get tired (and often nod) during the day, especially after reading my 4th journal article on "Psychiatric Assertive Outreach in Rural Areas". At that point I say, "Time for a stimulant", and go buy one of our horrid 25¢ coffees.

I don't think that a med change is in order, yet. Ask your doc. Your body adjusts to activating ADs as well.

Try exercise; it has given me much more energy than I have had in years (since I played some fairly serious hockey). Some mornings, after a particularily sadistic karate workout, I can barely move for the next few mornings. (usually to impress some visiting impotentate...er potentate - god, if my sensei reads this I'm going to hurt for a week). I keep forgetting that I am not that young anymore. I may not be able to stretch as well as some of the young twenty-year olds, but can still kick their ass by outsmarting them (or cheating - same thing). I definitely promote group (forced) exercise as a way to also prevent reccurences.

Hope this helps - Cam W.
