Wellbutrin causing tiredness

Posted by Sonya on October 9, 2005, at 19:09:23

225mg Wellbutrin SR taken early a.m. keeps me alert and motivated in the morning, but by mid-afternoon my eyes are so heavy, I feel I can't keep them open, and it doesn't let up for the rest of the day. My pdoc blames my low-calorie diet so I increased calories the last 3 days but the symptoms persist.

Does Wellbutrin SR affect anyone else like that? I like the med otherwise (minimal side effects and no weight gain). I'm also on 500mg Depakote but I'm pretty sure that's not causing the tiredness.

This extreme tiredness isn't normal for me. Before Wellbutrin, I didn't experience this. I suppose I'll put up with it since it's effective for my depression.
