I'm back on Wellbutrin AGAIN for the, I don't know... 4th time. lol I feel less depressed, but noticed I crave sweets like crazy. NOT GOOD. Especially for me. I gained 40 lbs on meds for migraines over 2 yrs. I've lost 21 this yr thanks to lamictal (had to go off..got itchy) and Topamax (making hair fall out and giving me severe acne, and just learned it's why I snap at the kids all the time). so craving sweets is NOT a good side effect, but the doc just looks at me like I'm an ass when I mention it. It's an important side effect darn it. Why don't they want to take us seriously? It's our body, our life! I'm tired of being overweight!!!! So I'm taking charge, I'm telling HER what the game plan is. Unfortunately I have 2 doctors.....one for migraines and one for depression. ARGH! Getting them both to listen isn't going to be easy. I want off Wellbutrin, Topamax and Abilify. I'm starting Lamictal again.....very slowly....maybe no itchiness this time. Wish me luck.
