Most people feel a bit stimulated-sometimes too stimulated. I'd suggest dropping back to 150 for a couple weeks or so if the 300 makes you too anxious. My experience was that 150 caused very mild insomnia for a couple nights (just took longer to go to sleep/woke up a bit early). I was much less hungry during the day. I think it took months for it to actually work, and when it did, I found I had periods of intense fearfulness, which decreased significantly when I went down to 150. I thought the 150 probably wasn't doing anything, so I stopped taking it. Wrong. I started to need a couple naps a day. I started the 150 again and all is well. A high percentage of people that I know that have taken Wellbutrin found it too stimulating-OTOH, I suffer from panic disorder and shouldn't be taking Wellbutrin, but I think it is of help. My point was not to be surprised if it makes you agitated, give it enough time to see if it works, and you can sum up the experience in just two words: "you never know". :>} Best of luck and try not to worry...
