I've been taking Wellbutrin for almost 3 1/2 months now, and I am very ready to stop. It has done nothing for me in this time, and I'm just so sick of taking it every day for no reason. I want to stop, but I've heard horror stories about quitting meds cold turkey. I know I'm taking 300mg a day, but I can't remember if they're SR or XR or whatever, so I'm not sure yet if I can cut them to taper or not.

Has anyone else stopped Wellbutrin on their own after about that long? I know I'm going to be told to work with my doc, but I don't really have one right now. I'm in between T's and pdoc's, so I'm not working with anyone in that realm right now. I have a pcp I usually see, but he doesn't know anything about psychiatric meds, so he wouldn't have any advice. I'd just like to hear others' experiences with this, if there are any to share.
