Update on the Meds…
November 28th, 2006 @ 11:05 pm
So it now day 8 of 42 on Wellbutrin. Today was my first dose of 300mg versus the 150mg I was taking last week. The first few days I felt really tired and spacey on it (and it’s a stimulant, so I should have been more awake!) and kind of dizzy, but nothing too bad. I am waiting for the appetite-suppressant effect to kick in…
Maybe it was the double dose but today was the first day I noticed a huge difference in the way I felt. At the risk of sounding corny, I actually felt … SUNNY … today. It was weird, but that was the only word that popped in my mind all day. Side effects have changed a little bit…the stimulant part is kicking in as I was seriously CRACKED OUT several times today. It was like I had 10 shots of espresso or something (and I don’t drink coffee much anymore so that’s a huge thing) - I was really hyper and weird, but a least Chris found it to be entertaining. It would come and go in waves of spastic-crazy-psycho-lady to normal-I-keep-going-to-bed-really-late feelings. A few headaches that come and go, but really nothing too extreme.
So that’s the story so far. How are YOU doing today?

Sorry to hear about all the drug troubles. Hope it all works out. Glad to know that your day was “Sunny” though. It will be a good thing to be “Sunny” with the weather that is headed our way tomorrow!! Finally, winter is coming at the end of November.
To many more CRACKED OUT days.

It was 73 degrees yesterday, today it is 33. Snow, maybe just sleeting rain, is coming and I am excited. I love to get my house ready for Christmas during this weather, make cookies and other treats, playing loud, obnoxious Christmas music all the while.

I’m feeling good today, a little heavy around the eyes and a stuffy nose, but excited that it is Christmas time. I think I have just about enough Caffeine in me, so pretty soon I’ll be bouncing.

Hey Anne, can we ask questions about the meds?
I am doing well. A little overwhelmed. The end of the month is always hectic for an accountant.

I mentioned before that my therapist recommended Wellbutrin. In my previous experience with Zoloft my emotional highs didn’t feel to high and my lows didn’t feel to low. I felt emotionally neutered. Are you having the same results with Wellbutrin?
