Wellbutrin 🫶

What is Wellbutrin?

Wellbutrin is a norepinephrine/dopamine-reuptake inhibitor (NDRI) used most commonly for the management of Major Depressive Disorder (MDD), Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), and as an aid for smoking cessation. It’s also very helpful in relieving some of the symptoms of ADHD.

Why I love it

I’ve noticed a huge difference in my mood and I have much more motivation on a day to day basis. My dishes stay clean, my laundry stays done, I get to work on time. Overall I’m able to prioritize things better.

It’s helped me to stop vaping! after a week of taking it, hitting my vape started to make me gag. Even if think about vaping, I’m able to quickly dismiss the thought because it’s not something I want to do, it’s just something I’m used to doing.

I’m able to communicate the way that I feel without getting upset. I’ve always been a very anxious person and sometimes communicating my feelings would make me emotional. But while taking this medication I’m able to be more rational.

I have tried Zoloft and Prozac in the past, but both of them actually made my mental health worse after a couple of months of taking them. Don’t get discouraged if you haven’t found the right medication for yourself yet! Always be honest with your doctor and be patient with the process ❤️
