It is to be expected. I went up on my Wellbutrin after my pdoc appointment on Friday. I don't like the feeling of it filling my body with jittery energy, and at the same time not being able to go somewhere or do something to expend it. It freezes me to the chair every time it happens.

I hope it goes away soon.

Hope you feel better soon!

Are you able to get out for a walk?

Thanks for this!

Hmmm, you know, I never thought my anxiety might be linked to the Wellbutrin... But my life is so stressful it's hard to blame it on the meds!

Hang in there - I had 2 weeks migraines when the pdoc upped my dose. Hopefully you'll be feeling better soon.
Thanks for this!

Everyone reacts to meds differently. Wellbutrin made me feel like I was on speed, and I couldn't sleep for 2 weeks straight.

I hope you feel better soon and everything levels out for you.

It got better as the day went on. I am still having on and off anxiety. I wouldn't call it panic attacks, so that's a plus.

I wonder if the Wellbutrin kept me awake last night.
Thanks for this!

i get hives all over my body from wellbutrin, they are like bites and can get huge like cover the whole back of my hand, be all over my legs, head, arms, hands, fingers, feet.....it's horrible.....but....i am really really really stable....so i'm tempted o just live with it. I guess thats the toss up, if you can live with it and the mediation helps then it's worth it, but if it's not worth it no use going through the side effects for nothing right. Hopefully your anxiety passes sooner rather than later and the medication works out for you.
