I’m currently on Prozac and it’s been a year now. I’ve been debating to go on Wellbutrin or not because every now and then I will get phases where I become super sad and depressed and don’t want to do anything. I just don’t want anything that will cause me to be sleepy because I also have problems with grogginess during the day. If you think it will help you, then give it a try and see how you like it

Wellbutrin isn’t known to cause drowsiness! It should be taken in the morning though because it can cause insomnia, so maybe it would be good for you too! 😊

Wellbutrin is actually what gave me OCD and worsened my depression. I hope you have a better experience

I have taken Wellbutrin with Zoloft to help with low libido not depressive symptoms, so my experience might not offer much information for you, but I've felt great on Wellbutrin. Even though I don't take it for depression, I feel like it helps me feel better...almost like I'm not as likely to be clouded by complete negativity. Not to say that I never get sad or down or think negatively, but it somehow feels easier to bounce back from than before I was on Wellbutrin.

Oh good!!! I’m glad to hear that it’s working well for ya. I definitely relate to the “clouded by negativity” I’m usually a very happy, bubbly, positive person but the past 2 years I’ve just been PISSED for no reason and snapping at everyone. I hope this helps!

Medication
Hey friends, I hope you all are well. I just wanted to check in and ask people's experiences about being on medication. I have had OCD pretty much my whole life, just got recently diagnosed 4 months ago and my therapist recommended that I get on meds for it so I have a psychiatrist appointment set up. I'm a little apprehensive about getting on them, but I've realized that I do have some sort of chemical imbalance in my brain that plays a part in my OCD and anxiety. I would love to hear anyones experiences or words of encouragement. Thank you, I hope you all are well.
