Recovering Bulimic considering Wellbutrin XL? ?!
Question: Recovering Bulimic considering Wellbutrin XL.? .?
Hi Everyone
I'm currently a recovering Bulimic (Been Purge/Binge free now for over a year)
I'm very depressed and after trying sooo many anti depressants (with no luck or crazy side effects) I've heard from a few that Wellbutrin has really helped them. I read that it shouldn't be given to people who have eating disorders due to the risk of seizers .
I've been clean (without a single purge) for over a year, does that still count me out.? Could I try it.?
Any opinions.?
Thanks! Health Question & Answer

Answers:
firstly, congratulations on being b/p free! Im so proud of you. I would say that first off you should ask your doctor, but I would say the risk of seizures comes from the chemical imblances that can occur post purging, so I would say that because your body is back 'in balance' you would be ok taking it.?
