> I have recently come off Effexor and have gotten on Wellbutrin. I wanted to regain some libido which was all but totally diminished. I have felt so much better than on effexor. I was too numb and detached.
i have found wellbutrin to also not leave me feeling numb and detached. i have felt that on other meds and i agree that it is not desirable.
> I gained weight on the effexor...does anyone have any experience with wellbutrin....will I lose the weight that I put on? Any input on Wellbutrin would be appreciated.many people lose weight on wellbutrin. it can take away your appetite and your thirst. it's "revving up" tendencies tend to keep you going so that you forget to eat/drink. but i lost weight worse on effexor and never overcame the agitation from it and had to stop. i eventually overcame the agitation from the wellbutrin and also lost weight, but i've been able to level out and not lose too much like i did with the effexor (i couldn't keep it on.)
