Has anyone taken this medication for depression? And if so, what are the results?

How long have you taken it for Kate? And do you live in the UK or in the USA?

I take the generic for Wellbutrin(bupropion) and it is so far the only anti-depressant I have taken that both felt like it helped and didn't have any noticeable side effects. I was taking 150mg a day for quite a while but my doctor just bumped it up to 200mg daily. I also take the generic for Buspar(buspirone) 10mg twice/day. The combination seems to work well for me.

I am also in the process of cutting soda from my diet due to the excessive calories and sugar but feel the caffeine is beneficial so I am taking a 200mg caffeine pill in the morning as well.

Thanks for that. It helps to know how people react to it.

What is the Buspar for, eelektrik?
