For Major Depressive Disorder "I was prescribed Wellbutrin after being hospitalized in April of 2017. When I got there, that's the first medicine they gave me to try. The only difference I noticed was that I was having more trouble sleeping than I normally had without the medicine. I had no faith in this working for me because they told me they wanted me to stop smoking as I was 17 at the time (I turned 18 in May, it's the end of March 2018 right now, I'm almost 19 atm), and Wellbutrin makes smoking taste horrible, so it's definitely effective for smoking cessation. As far as depression, I'd say it helped for a little while, but soon I needed a higher dosage, and then after a little bit, my suicidal thoughts were back, so I quit taking them. Overall, it wasn't very effective in my case."

For Depression "Really bad. I didn't feel better at all, just constantly 'wired' like I had drank 6 cups of coffee. I couldn't sleep at all."
