They gave me pills!

I finally went to a psychiatrist and apparently she thinks that I have clinical depression (like this is any huge fucking surprise to me), so she prescribed some pills for me. I'm now taking 150mg of Wellbutrin every day.
For those of you who dont know anything about it, it's not only an anti-depressant, but it's also a stimulant. And it's a fun one too. Hehe. A half hour after I took the first one, my hands were shaking so bad that I couldnt finish the taco I was eating. And then I stay pretty wired for the rest of the day.
Oh, and on a side note, it doesn't really make me all that happy, instead, it just kinda levels me out to nothing. It's really kinda odd.

Oh, and there's a party tomorrow. And I'm wicked excited.

Woot! I'm on Welbutrin too, but only 100mg/day for my little body. It's not like Prozac and Paxil which usually kick in pretty quickly, Welbutrin can take a few weeks for you to start feeling better. It's never given me the shakes, but when I first started taking it, the pills used to make me nautious... it's also used as a stop-smoking aid. And yeah, you're not supposed to drink on it either, but my doc told me not to worry too much about that, just to be careful. smile

The shakes will stop once you've taken Wellbutrin for about a month. It works very well. Every single member of my family has taken it at one time or another, my boyfriend, my mother, my brother, and my best friend are currently taking it...

it does wonders, keep it up.


Partay!
