I endured 4 days in wellbutrin. This first effect this drug is cathastrophical to me- very increase my all symptoms to suicidal attempt ( very worse anhedonia, vigilant, horrible insomnia and very strong depersonalization, huge increase my bad thought and agoraphobia). I very bad reaction to pure NRI- also reboxetine and mianserin is also very bad for me. Noradrenergic drug= shit for me. ( only clomipramine work different and johimbine is very softer tha classic NRI).

Bupropion

Unread post by noritikas »

In theory bupropion should fix pssd. why? antidepressant are created to have a sustained effect. One of the effects of bupropion is increase libido so... The effects of antidepressants are supposed to be felt after some time. We need everyone in the forum to try high dose bupropion for a month or two, IMHO.

Another facet is that bupropion has more effect on libido when it hits the blood stream directly... without metabolism.

150 mg is nothing. i tried a veeery high dose once. Then the effect can be really felt.

Been on bupropion for almost 2 years and it's worsened my sex drive. Also, I can definitely feel an improvement when I lower the dose.

High doses will cause seizures and should be avoided! The regular dose is 150 or 300 mg. In the US, as far as I know, Bupropion is also available at 450 mg.

Bupropion are usually sustained release pills, meaning that forcibly bypassing the sustained release mechanism by splitting pills or even by snorting, inhaling or injecting it can lead to overdosing with severe negative effects.

Recommending something like this is irresponsible and dangerous.

For those of you who got some benefit from Wellbutrin, have you found anything else that also works for you?

I took Wellbutrin for a little over a year because it was helping with my PSSD symptoms. Then it eventually pooped out on me and I quit taking it for a while. I recently began taking it again along with St. John’s Wort, at the advice of Meso. I think it might be helping but it’s too soon to tell. The problem is, Wellbutrin seems to make my headaches and migraines worse. Lately I’ve been having daily headaches and if it keeps up, I think I may have to quit taking Wellbutrin. Hoping to find a substitute that could help manage PSSD symptoms.
