Wellbutrin Withdrawl Nightly?

Updated December 22, 2016

I started on Wellbutrin XL 150mg 10 days ago, taking it at 9pm nightly with my Lamictal. I'm exhausted, irritable, and depressed in the evenings. I know it takes up to a month for the Wellbutrin to take full effect, so could the medication be wearing off around 7? I feel like a functioning member of society (finally!!) during the day, but my poor SO is still seeing the grumpy, shut down woman in the evenings.

It might not be the best for you, there are higher ones your doctor can prescribe for you. Are you on any other medications?

The FDA lists the typical side effects of this medication as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, nervousness, and insomnia.

It could also be that the time released formulation doesn't work well for you and you may need to take the regular release twice a day.
