If anyone could tell me their past or current experiences using Wellbutrin SR, that would be great. Also, I know that sometimes it causes weight LOSS. I didn't think that it would because usually anti-depressants cause weight GAIN. I'm a 21 year old female 5' 6" that weighed about 127 pounds before taking it and only a month into it am down ten pounds to 117. Is this ok? I am a little scared about it. Also, did anyone notice an increase in sex drive? Please tell me anything you can about it. Thank you soo much!

I am currently seeing a therapist to control my bp. I am taking medication and stick to this on a regular basis. The thing is my therapist has suggested that I tell my five year old son about my having bp. I think he is just a little too young and would not fully be able to understand the situation. Plus it might make him think less of me. That is what scares me the most. I love my son and always put him first in my life. I don't want him to be afraid of me and I don't want him having bad thoughts about me.
I don't really believe he is old enough to fully understand the entire situation. He most likely doesn't even know what bp is.
There is absolutely now way that I will ever consider doing something that would harm him.
I want him to know that I love him and will always be there for him. My therapist says that I can't make a break through in therapy unless I tell him the truth about my disorder. But I worry about the negative effect it will have on my son's relationship with me.

My mother is a compulsive liar, apparently as my uncle has told me she has always lied even when she was a kid, but do i call her out on the lie and listen to her tell me a whole new set of lies to try and cover the first lie? My husband says to save my breath and just assume absolutely everything she says is a lie(it usually is) and let it go, my mother and i are always fighting because i can't trust her (obviously) and i just can't get my head around the fact that someone can be like this. So should I call her on the lies or just leave it alone?

I'm in college, I've been struggling since September to be successful and to get my work done. I switched from one program to another because it was more slow paced. I started two months behind the rest. Now it's January, I haven't gone to class in such a long time. The program I'm in is independent learning, but there are certain days where I have to go.

Anyway, I've been battling with depression for years. It always ruins everything. I have a counselor now at the college which I haven't seen in a while, but If I don't care enough to get out of bed, or to eat, then why would I care about class. No one really understands. I sit here dressed and ready to get to class. Yet I can't bring myself to do it. I've built all these fears, from putting class off for so long. If I fail 1.5 credit classes I lose my funding by my sponsor, and I'll never get it again. I feel like such a spoiled brat, government gives me money to go to college yet I abuse it. I feel as if I'm destined for failure.

I have taken Seroquel for a couple of weeks, and it really helped my insomnia and anxiety. My dr admits that although I'm already overweight that this is the best med choice for me, for a variety of reasons. I've researched as much as I can, but it seems I can only find stories online about people who were not overweight and then gained weight on Seroquel. Has anyone started this med with a weight problem? Has it made it worse? I'm scared. Thanks.

Sometimes twice a day. He is really nice but wants to talk for hours and always asks me exactly what I have been doing. If I dont tell him everything he keeps asking. I do not want to talk everyday but he doesn't understand. Is there a nice way that I can tell him? He is married to a wonderful woman and I am married as well so there is no "attraction" there

I mean like the every thing in your life is confusing and you can't put it all together. Nothing is understandable at all. Everything seems crazy or it should not be as it is and there is no way to make any sense of it.

I am 27 years old, male.

Recently I have been fluctuating between moods of extreme excitement and joy at the beauty and adventure of life and black, suicidal despairs where I don't even want to get out of bed.

Never had this before. Has just started a few months ago.

Can't afford a psychiatrist but have booked an appointment with a doctor who might refer me but was wondering if anyone knew what is happening to me?

what is the best way to heal a broken heart? It's not broken by a guy but by the most important family member who had to leave this country.
So, any good suggestions?
