See my other post about my Wellbutrin experience. I never got over the "hump" as they say, no matter what dose I was on. I tried to take it and stay on it for 2 different trials.

I have experienced nervousness on many meds, and am very sensitive - Welbutrin is no exception. I am taking very small amounts of it - only 50mg a day. I figured I would add it to the Strattera as my girlfriend was becoming increasingly unhappy that my genitals had been reduced to shriveled lumps of dead flesh on these meds. I also needed more energy. I have a little more energy now, but the sex problem is as bad as ever, and now I have this tight, constricted problem in my chest that feels like shortness of breath. It's not pleasant, and may spell the end of these meds for me. If it ain't one thing, it's another.
