Does anyone take this for anxiety along with mood swings? Also how much weight did you lose?

I’m thinking of asking my doctor about it.

It’s not that I want to lose weight, it’s the fact that I don’t want to gain weight. I’d rather lose 15 pounds then gain it. Even if I will look a bit sick. I’m basically taking everything that’s weight neutral. I feel like it’s either Wellbutrin or raising my lamictal or geodon.

I have the Ativan, but I try not to take it.

Wellbutrin has been a great drug for me. It gives me a little energy boost in the morning. I have no side effects but in a lot of people it increases anxiety. I am bipolar 1 so it is one of the few AD's that I can take without getting manic.

I gained on Wellbutrin. I gained on lamictal, too. Maybe 10 on each. I'm bipolar also and it took about 3 weeks and it flipped the switch for full blown mania. I was given Wellbutrin for ADHD, though off-label at the time
