Wellbutrin SR is less likely to cause a seizure than many other ADs. The seizure thing is overblown (IMO).

My doctor pushed the dose from 150 mg to 300 mg in 4 days. The medicine made my vision a bit blurry and killed my appetite (this dissipated). After 2 weeks a profound antidepressant effect kicked in (my motivation and interest was enhanced). The medicine did not make me anxious. My sleep was cut from 10 hrs a night to 7 hrs a night with heavy dreaming.

Regards
John
