Wellbutrin and me [View all]
I posted a couple of days ago about my depression and needing to go back on Wellbutrin. Thank you for all your supportive comments--it's really good to know I'm not alone in this.
Anyway, my doctor's appointment where I will get my prescription renewed is tomorrow, but Monday night I got so bad I told my husband I didn't want to live any more. I wasn't exactly suicidal, just felt like giving up on everything and just sitting in my chair until I died.
He said "That's it--take one of my Wellbutrin" and I did.
I know it's not supposed to work like this, not this fast, but today I am pretty much back to my old self. I'm taking care of things I've been letting slide because depression makes me physically inert and mentally incapable. I know it should take longer to have an effect, but I'm not complaining. It's as if my body is saying "oh there you are, old friend Wellbutrin--now let's get this show on the road!"
I'm so grateful to have a place to (anonymously) let my true feelings be known. I appreciate you all more than you can know. Just to have somewhere to vent without having to deal with the person I've vented to IRL is a precious gift.
