I started taking Wellbutrin about 2 months ago. It was actually prescribed for me because I was complaining about memory loss due to cancer meds I take.

I have spent my life "fighting" depression and anxiety and have managed to be very successful but it takes a lot of energy. About 5 years ago I started taking St Johns Wort which to me was a wonder drug! I couldn't believe the difference in how I felt--just like "normal" people (I guess). However, it interferes with the Tamoxifen I was taking so had to stop. By the time I was prescribed Wellbutrin, I was beginning to experience a continual "low grade" depression and some anxiety again.

Well, bottomline, the Wellbutrin is quite wonderful. I feel just as I did on St Johns Wort. It has also help my memory loss. Guess I'll be on it for another 3 years until I can quite taking the cancer meds than I'll go back onto St Johns Wort.
