mommaluvsherdoggies replied: "It could definitely be the reason why. I'm on Wellbutrin XL, and I can tell if I miss it 2 days in a row. A month ago I couldn't afford the copay for the refill and didn't have it for about 7 days. It wasn't good, but I expected it, and my husband expected it, so I made it through.
If your mom doesn't understand, try to explain the importance of you getting it and staying on it. If she can't afford it at the moment then see if your doctor has some samples (they come in a 7 day supply) to tide you over. It will take a little bit to build back up in your system also.
p.s. when you do get more, take it with food and be careful at first. I tend to get dizzy and 'out of focus' when I've missed some pills and then start taking it again."
Bipolar and wellbutrin? i have been dx with bipolar since i was 16. I have my severe highs and lows. i am depressed more than i am manic, but when im manic i do things i wouldn't normally do. i have no fear of danger, dont care what i do and who it affects. i have been on a mood stabilizer for 2 years, went off of it when i was pregnant, and then went back on that and then zoloft for post partum, and i didnt like it so i stopped it. I am now being prescribed Wellbutrin. my dr told me i am risking the chance of being more Manic and having more episodes of mania. anyone expiernce this? any advice? side effects? anything will help!

Fatty. replied: "i heard the wellbutrin is supposed to work ok. i was put on it a few years ago (and i was diagnosed bipolarII), but they took me off of it within like a week because they said i was going to have a heart attack or something..
just make sure you dont take it with an eating disorder."
Ms Kitty replied: "Yep, Wellbutrin causes me to become severly manic... Anti depressants in general will do this if you are bipolar. Wellbutrin has the least chance of this happening but I wouldn't try to stay on it too long....."
