I've been on Wellbutrin for a year and it has virtually eliminated my depression. I have had GI problems since starting it though and they seem to get progressively worse, leading me to be diagnosed with "irritable bowel syndrome" five months after I started the Wellbutrin. I take fiber supplements daily and this keeps me barely functional. I have lost 10 lbs since starting Wellbutrin; I am not underweight but if I continue to loose weight I will be underweight. Hopefully, my weight will stay as it is.
I would be interested to know if there are any other Wellbutrin longtimers who have the GI problems. I tried going off the Wellbutrin but quickly got depressed.
BTW, I had the tinnitus when I first started but it went away after about 4 months.
