> I also forgot to add that Wellbutrin is an analog of Tenuate (diethylpropion), an aminoketone diet pill and psychostimulant. The company invested money, so they had to find a use for the drug somehow. It is nothing more than a dysphoric, weak stimulant.
That's pretty much how Wellbutrin has affected me. However, two close friends of mine have achieved remission on this drug. One has atypical depression and the other has a bipolar spectrum psychotic depression. Both people were chronically affected and did not have histories of spontaneous remissions. To be fair, the Wellbutrin is being used in combination with other drugs in both cases. Nevertheless, the antidepressant effect of Wellbutrin was quite evident once it was added. Both people take 300mg.
