Yes, I sure did. I had to go off of it. I cant believe they gave it to you for anxiety. I took it for depression and to quit smoking. I could not take it alone. I tried it later by adding lexapro (for depression and anxiety) and it was much better. I would become very angry while taking wellbutrin alone and almost paranoid at times. It made me much more anxious.

Wow that is crazy that the doc gave you a prescription for a anti-depressant when you really need one for anxiety. I would definitely think more about this doctor. And you are right about it making you meaner if you take it alone!!! I was also on that but quit it - as it really didn't work for me. I am currently on Risperdal, Lexapro & Ativan and so far so good - just hope I don't have to switch meds again as I have had to do that a 100 times it seems like!!!
Wish you well!!!!
