My experience with hair lose while on wellbutrin was the opposite, as soon as i started Wellbutrin (Zyban here in UK) my hair stopped falling off!!! I took it only for 3 weeks though so i don't know what would happened if i continued. There was something else that made me quit it- insomnia, i slept 3 hours a day and my face looked like dead mans walking. But i could function normally and had a lot of energy in the gym could do twice as much as i normally do and also heavier weights.Unfortunately had to quit it, i did it could turkey. But what's interesting were the withdrawal symptoms, i felt great! My mind was still and focused,i could see the big picture of things,little things didn't bother me at all, i felt whole. But it lasted only for a day or two and then started to weaken. Anybody with similar experiences?

I recommend finding a doctor that specializes in bioidentical hormones. Get your hormone levels checked regardless of your age.
I am in the process of getting off of wellbutrin after 7 years. I have struggled with sleep problems since I started wellbutrin. I did a sleep study.....have taken every kind of sleep aid on the market. No one has ever mentioned my sleep problems could be related to wellbutrin.
How did you get off wellbutrin and did you have any problems?
Thank you.....I hope this is helpful.
