First of all I would like to start by saying how much I love this website. All of the responses that I get are very informative and helpful.
I have been on Zoloft (100mg)for a few months now and started WellbutrinXR about a month ago to counter-act the negative side effects of zoloft (low energy, no sex drive, increased appetite). It seems to have helped in every aspect except the energy. Just this past week I raised my dose to 300mg from 150 and have noticed that it may even be harder for me to focus than it was before I was on it. Yesterday I would suddenly feel light headed and like I might faint from time to time. Granted I also just went back on birth control about a month ago and it was approaching "my time of the month" so... I'm not sure which one was affecting me this way.
My question is, does it take a while to feel the energy + focus effect of wellbutrin? I am very satisfied with the other ways it has counter-acted the zoloft and I don't want to stop taking it. I also have been experiencing ringing in the ears which is bearable but kind of weird...
