Hi, I am new to the world of prescription drugs. Frankly I've tried to avoid it but getting to college I found myself giving in to my vices much more frequently. Though not prescribed I have been using adderal or ritalin for schoolwork since i was a junior in high school on and off. Not for everything but being a writer the greatest part was being able to actually connect my thoughts! Unfortunately my anxiety was severely increased and tend to fall back on alcohol. My doctor has now prescribed me Wellbutrin, claiming it will lower my anxiety and make me more focused ("adderal is the band-aid fix") he said. Now I'm not positive because i have a head cold, but I have been expiriences severe drowsiness. Trying to read puts me immediately to sleep and i have very little motivation. Are these side effects that others have expirienced? I am happy that i do not crave alcohol or pot almost at all, but i need to do my school work ;( Any Advice? What about the combination of Wellbutrin and Ritalin?
