I just stopped it again to try Cymbalta after 2 weeks and had a bit of irritability and anxiety, so bad I didn't sleep at all the evening after I stopped. I guess the difference last time was that I started something else the day after, this time I didn't and was taking nothing else. My doc wanted me to wait a few days to start the Cymbalta so I didn't get start up sides mixed with withdrawal.
So, although not as bad as some SSRI's/Effexor, Wellbutrin XL did cause me a little misery. I could definitely tell I was withdrawing some.
