> Wellbutrin makes me sleepy too, and occasionally causes tinnitus. After being on and off it for years, I don't think it had any drastic effect on my weight.

> Three times I've been on it, and three times I've gone back off after about a year. It seems to help me with the ADD symptoms at first, but that benefit seems to have a delayed negative boomerang effect that doesn’t make much sense. Each time after taking it continuously for a year, it stops working, and starts causing concentration problems and memory loss. I'd swear that I've seen this effect all three times, and that's why I got off of it again a month ago. Three strikes.
>I am really glad you brought this up! I have really noticed memory loss & concentration problems. I also feel like I am stuttering.
I am the Director of a child care program, and need to think quickly, and remember many bits of info. If this dosen't go away I will have to stop the med. I have had no other side effects lately that I've noticed.
I really hope this is temorary!
