Some people take Wellbutrin/Bupropion to help them quit smoking. It can really help with that, depending on your biochemistry.
Wellbutrin works on the dopamine pathway, whereas the SSRI class of ADs (e.g. Prozac) works on the serotonin pathway. I am on another medication that interacts with the dopamine pathway, and I am definitely experiencing an energy boost.
I think one thing that is important with these meds is to give them several weeks to work. Just push on through the initial side effects if you can, as some of them will go away, and in 4-6 weeks, you will have a better feel for how you will do on this med. Of couse, if the initial side effects are too awful, this plan may not work. Good luck!
