Yep that’s me. Today’s primary symptom is idiocy. My brain is mush.
I will definately think thrice before ingesting any medication ever again. My advice to my readers out there would be to really weigh the potential benefit of a drug and it’s potential harm before taking it - and to know and watch for adverse side effects. There is so much information easily accessible online about prescription medications. You can even do the unthinkable (I didn’t think to do it, anyways - my bad) and read the little pamphlet your pharmacist sends along with your script. I can’t believe now that I never even thought to look up Wellbutrin before I swallowed, it makes me mad that I trusted so much. I was excited for the potential “easy fix”. Even despite having had adverse reactions to medications before, and once needing to seek emergency treatment for one of my newborns when she had a seizure as a result of a medication she was prescribed. Dumb, dumb, dumb.
I figure now that I would have probably taken Wellbutrin even if I did a little research beforehand, since the reaction I am having is so rare. Smoking kills, I want to be done with it. But I know now that I would have never gotten this sick if I had recognized the early symptoms for what they were and stopped taking it right away.
Tomorrow it’s two weeks since I stopped taking Wellbutrin. I’m still having severe health issues. I’m a little more productive and interactive each day, but it’s slow going. I can’t wait for this to be over. Wah.
