I have been on it for about a year. It is convenient and I can trust its efficacy. However, i've started keeping track of my moods, and I must say that at around the 5th-7th day of a new pack I am extremely irritable. Extremely. It seems to possess me, and every little thing sets me off. I'm talking, pure anger and rage, and I become a person i don't even recognize. When day 8 or so comes around, all that darkness is gone. It's starting to affect my relationships too, and it's very emb... View full comment

I've been on Wellbutrin SR for several years, and have a lot of useful experience to share. For background, I am a chemical engineer, working in R&D for 25 years, with expertise in experimental design and statistical interpretation of results. I’ve also read in health science for just as long. Since the mid 1990s, I have been personally acquainted with depression, and therefore, have read a fair amount on its causes and treatment. I have also applied my strong orientation to experimen... View full comment

the pil has been affective. I took it for about 8 or 9 years. I am no longer on it and have had my colesterol checked and my HDL was low and I have read articles that says that may be due to the birth control pill.
