Wellbutrin made me horny and made me lose some weight, but it also made me VIOLENTLY ragey and gave me insomnia for about a year. The violent rage was not worth the weight loss and friskiness.

The generic Valium made me walk around with my fists clenched all the time, and I didn't notice any improvement. So that ended that experiment.

and we have more thunder. I love rain.

That's sort of the exact opposite of the desired effect. Weird!

That's what Xanax did to me. Shaking, with my heart pounding. The doctor didn't really believe me, but he switched me to Valium, which did what it was supposed to do.

I might have taken on some extra rage if I'd lost weight and gotten horny. All I got from Wellbutrin was increased anxiety and shaking hands. Neither of which has entirely gone away, two years after I stopped taking it.

Though I suppose if it was awesome, and then you're only on it a very short time, that could be sad.

Yeah, enjoy it while it lasts, that's about it.

I hear a lot about side effects from Tramadol, but the only effect I notice from it is pain relief. To be on the safe side, I don't drive when taking it, since I have poor hand-eye coordination, can barely see well enough to renew my drivers license, and have poor reflexes. So, aside from driving with it being illegal, a really tiny effect on my response time could be deadly. But I suspect that in a life or death emergency that justified law breaking, I could risk driving with it.

No, it was...I wondered if I was having a psychotic break. For real. It was not a good drug for me.

It took a full year after I quit taking it for the insomnia to let up, but I still have trouble with insomnia. It's a pisser. (I had occasional insomnia before the Wellbutrin, but not as badly or as consistently as I did while I was taking it.)

Geez, I"m with Ginger--I never get the good side effects! Heck, even benadryl doesn't make me sleepy. And topamax did decrease my appetite some, but didn't actually make me lose weight, so that was not helpful enough (apparently they are now marketing it as a weight loss drug, which...seriously? It fucked up my speech! Made me foggy!)

I still hear people sigh longingly for the days of phenfen and what a bummer it was that a few cardiac arrests had to take it off the market. Compared to that, what's a bit of fog and slurred speech?

Well, and if it were effective in weight loss, I might be into that. :) But since it didn't actually make me lose weight (more like it made me forget to eat lunch, on days when I was working from home?)...
