off with their meds!

i'm disappointed for not being inspired lately and am contemplating ditching the daily meds (wellbutrin and paxil and xanax oh my) and rediscovering mood swings. i watched prozac nation over the weekend and was jealous of christina ricci's strung-out and sleep-deprived character. i remember those days. the good ole' daze. all i can do now is write about current events and it feels like a daily exercise in fifth grade writing methods (today find a headline and write a paragraph about it children). so yeah, eff you merck.

My name is Tricia Hurley and i would like to show you my personal experience with Wellbutrin.

I am 54 years old. Have been on Wellbutrin for 1 year now. Helps with depression. No weight gain like with Zoloft or decreased libido like with Prozac. I do think Prozac worked better and the only reason I went off it was my husband complained about that libido thing.

I have experienced some of these side effects -
Involuntary jerks of hands and legs. Feels like when you're about to fall asleep and suddenly jerk awake, but this is in the daytime. Often feel like adrenaline is flooding my stomach.

I hope this information will be useful to others,
