Unfortunately I can't go on Wellbutrin. I have a really bad anxiety disorder and when I was on it in the past it rose my anxiety to intolerable levels. I was willing to try it again, to try and lose some weight, but my old psychiatrist refused to put me on it because my anxiety is so bad.

It sucks.

I definitely lost weight when I was on it, because I was too anxious and keyed up to eat anything!
