Hi Scott

Is wellbutrin considered an ssri? Oh yeah, Im not keen on being a guinea pig, but I may be making myself one inadvertantly.> Some people can "feel" when they have missed even one dose of Wellbutrin.
I suspect I can as well, but I wasnt sure. If I miss 2 days my mood is off.

>Its not that I want to miss them its that I did miss them. I have been trying to go off the drug and it is seeming to be an impossibility. So I go off and then anywhere between 5 days to 3 or so weeks I have gone back on b/c I get really down. So i am noticing it a little now but I have been back on it for several days now.
I started to worry about it becoming ineffective.im just trying to figure out the best approach for getting off it.
Although Im slowly beginning to feel that I may really need it.Any ideas on getting off it?
Thanks
