It's been so long since I started that I'm not 100% sure, but I seem to remember that it took a good week before I felt anything. A month before I was up scrubbing floors. wellbutrin question

But everyone reacts differently AND I was coming off Zoloft which left me zombatized.

Speedy relief,

Petunia

I had a real problem with wellbutrin, so not sure of the timing when it started having an effect....seemed like a continuous flow from the anorexia from the Prozac then immediately into the anorexia from the wellbutrin.....they must have not known the possible reactions 8 years ago....but then, I had a pdoc want to give me prozac for my weight loss the beginning of this year.....go figure.

Most of the time, my reactions hit within 24 hours....way before any effect could be discovered....so like most of the others...must takes several weeks to start working & several more weeks to really start working.

Good luck,
Debbie

I just started taking Wellbutrin and it took about a week to start to work. I am sure it is different for everyone. They say it can take up to a month.
