Hey Omers 
Anti-depressants such as Wellbutrin or Prozac can create 'poor judgment' and lack of impulse control. It can kind-of mimic manic stages in bi-polar individuals. I have noticed this, when I am on an SSRI I tend to do things or say things I would never had while not taking the medication, and if I stop taking the medication, about a month afterwards I feel like 'wth? why am I so stupid? why did I do that?'.
I would talk to your doctor about it, maybe mention that others have had similarities, they should know that it could produce an affect. Unfortunately, some therapists or psychiatrists only stick to one method and aren't open-minded about what their patients tell them, they just stick to the books. Just be stern yet calm when dealing with the therapist/psych. And perhaps theirs a non-SSRI that could help if the side effects are to much.
(((((omers))))) may you find inner peace
