Were you taking the nort during the day? I only take it at night, so the only time I have dry mouth is early in the morning. And, did you know you can get Wellbutrin SR in 100mg tablets? If you can't tolerate 150mg, ask your doc for 100mg and see how you do on that dose. I seem to recall Minnie saying a while ago that she had some problems on the 150mg tablet, but when she went to 200mg (one dose of 2x100mg), she was fine. I, too, experienced irritability on 150mg. I am going to try 200mg (in 2 doses though) tomorrow.

> I just don't get it. It's just unfathomable to me how people can manage these doses without crippling side effects. At 25mg of nortriptyline my mouth was so dry I couldn't speak half the time. And at 150mg Wellbutrin, I couldn't sleep more than a couple hours at a time. I think my problem isn't so much that I'm med resistant it's that I just can't tolerate a therapeutic dose of anything.
