I posted before how my doctor wanted me to get off effexor (75mg) and on wellbutrin (300mg). I was really nervous about it because I've never taken anything for my depression before and I was only on effexor for a month. (It worked at first, but then it raised my bp and gave me horrible nightmares!) I've been on wellbutrin for 2 weeks and I'm feeling so much better! I hope it continues. My bp is still up. It seems like anything I take is going to make it go up. So right now I'm trying to get my bp under control. I've also lost 15 pounds so far. This is the best I have felt in a LONG time! I'm so thankful to the ladies on here for such helpful advice, information and support!

It took three tries before they found the right anti-depressant for me ... it takes six weeks for them to possibly work and then you have to start all over again if they don't. I am so happy that you feeling better!
