Thanks for the life update. I'm glad that you are doing well and living life!! I've been on 100mg SR twice daily for about a year and feeling awesome. Hope to see another video soon. Also, the short hair looks good.
Robert! Thank you so much for sharing your journey! I have also just started Wellbutrin for depression and extreme social anxiety, and your videos give me so much hope and relief. I can see how visibly healthier and confident you look. Congrats on becoming a nurse and I wish you the best in your new chapter of your life. Thank you ❤️
Thank YOU so so much For this amazing comment! 😌✨ I wish you all the very best in your mental health journey! Wellbutrin will not always, but can definitely cause a little anxiety. This effect will go away with some time so hang in there! If it wasn’t for the Buspar I think i would’ve had a considerably tougher time with it. Don’t forget to get your heart rate up (exercise) for 20-30 mins 3 times a week. This is so unbelievably important I can’t stress it enough. Ya dont have to do something crazy stressful, but somewhat rigorous and consistent, jogging, treadmill elliptical, bike, row machine, dance routine on TH-cam, cardio class…etc also get that sleep!! You got this!!! Sending you good vibes ⚡️⚡️⚡️
Rob thanks so much for your series on this topic! I’m currently surrendered to getting some help with some anxiety medication. This series has been amazing for me. I now understand & don’t feel alone. Thank you for this!
Thank you thank you! ✨✨You’re not alone! Believe me, I’ve absolutely been in your shoes. I’m so proud and excited for you that you have decided to seek and receive the help that you deserve!! You’re on the right track! remember to get your heart rate up 20-30 mins 3 times a week. This is huuuuge! Eat well and get good sleep!! if you have any questions, feel free to ask! Thanks again for the excellent comment!🙏✨
I'm so happy for you and proud of you getting a new job and moving and your doing great. I hope u keep making videos your a joy to listen to. I'm also on wellbutrin and buspirone, it's nice to hear your experiences, thanks for sharing :)
😌✨✨✨Your comment is making my whole entire day. Thank you, I really appreciate you.🙌 Also, I’m so glad that wellbutrin and buspar are working for you! Wishing you the very best of health!
Hi Robert! Just found you! My first clip watched was when you had Covid, cooking salmon. You were encouraged that the meds were helping. Then I found this uplifting video…I want this! As an adult, I have battled depression, anxiety, and, in the last year, become a shut-in. I am getting the help I need, and now taking Zoloft and Buspirone. I am not currently taking Wellbutrin but have used it in the past with reasonable success. Maybe that is the link I am missing! Thank you for sharing…it gives me hope! And BEST WISHES TO YOU!
This is the greatest comment I’ve read all year! 😌✨✨✨✨ Thank you thank you for sharing and commenting. Feel free to reach out and keep me posted on all your progress! you got this! 💪✨
Thank you for your wellbutrin vids. It was very comforting to know what i was feeling was shared and to know what to expect in the future is also a great comfort. Thank you. Have you looked into an ADHD diagnosis? Did your cessation of adhd like symptoms ever resolve? love to you forever ( a week into taking buproprion btw) (Requiem for a Dream is the movie)
Thank you for the comment!!🙏✨ I probably don’t have ADHD…probably! I think a lot of us probably just have so much stimulation on a daily basis (phones, sugary food, netflix, video games, porn) that our baseline requirement for stimulation (homeostasis) becomes so unbelievably high that doing something like sitting quietly and reading is incredibly difficult. I think consistent cardio and eating well probably did more for my focus than anything. With that being said, what few ADHD symptoms i had definitely benefited a bit from the medication. It’s basically easier to focus when you’re not stressed out. Thank you again!!✨ (and bonus points for getting the movie 🍿!)
Ah man it’s nice to hear someone validate the low and slow philosophy with meds. I really think it’s the way to go. You can always add more but it’s hard to decrease once you pour tremendous amounts of brain chemicals in your system. Thank you for your comment✨ Much appreciated!!🙏✨
Thanks for your videos! I started on Wellbutrin a few weeks ago (for add and depression) and I’m starting to feel more anxiety like my heart feels like dropping all the time In terms of anxiety, do you think the medicine has helped reshaped your anxious thoughts ? Or did it just make you feel less anxious, and the thoughts kinda gradually shifted as a result of feeling better. Thank you!
Thank you for your comment!! The buspar did all the heavy lifting for my anxiety. The wellbutrin made the anxiety worse for a little bit but then that effect went away. I feel like the effect is that it kind of turned my mind off a bit, my brain doesn’t focus hard on anxious things but kinda drifts more instead of fixating. It didn’t exactly change my thoughts but the effects those thoughts had on my body lessened. I hope that makes sense! thanks again ✨
I appreciate this comment more than you know!! ✨Hahaha, was actually thinking about it the other day. I’m going to try and create new content soon!!! hopefully i don’t get to side tracked as per usual! #ADHDme 👀
@@robertmakesashow7089 OMG do! Your video where you talked about being a golden retriever that can pop into a ward room and brighten people's day seems very astute lol - I imagine that's what most patients get from you, if that's still what you're doing. Otherwise just like people around you. That's deffo the vibe I get from your videos. Though like no pressure to always present happy lol, that can be exhausting, I'm sure you're just as entertaining as a sardonic deadpan dude now and then too haha
Anhedonia is definitely better but it took a long while. Anhedonia is a tricky one because, at least for me, it wasn’t exactly that I didn’t get joy in my interests, cuz i could watch anime all day and be satisfied, but its kinda like you don’t have the courage and resolve and energy to do things you want to do. A lot of that was just a life’s worth of anxiety weighing on my mind for years teaching me that the world is an anxiety ridden exhausting place. Once the anxiety was lifted a bit and i was able to experience life without the weight, my brain learned again what it liked to do and could act upon it without the same fear and self defeating perspective. Hope that made some sense. The meds helped me get some relief from the stress while my brain could retrain itself.
@@robertmakesashow7089 yeah for me its more brain fog and inability to concentrate and focus. My mind is constantly racing and right now I’m trying to figure out if its due to anxiety or adhd. Currently on Zoloft and it’s helping. Im back in the gym. But I’m not mentally where I used to be. Reason for me asking because I honestly thought it was due to anhedonia
I did experience some hair loss, but it was very minimal and now has stopped. I think my body just got used to the drug. I have heard though that if it is more hair loss and you’re comfortable with you can always stop the drug and it will simply grow back. For me, it was worth the risk! Thank you so much for the incredible comment. I appreciate you I wish you the best of health!!✨
Wow! You’re a nurse now? Thats so awesome!! Yay! ❤ Requiem for a dream. Very crazy movie.
I am!! Thank you🙏✨
So inspiring and encouraging. All your videos are great. Keep going buddy 👍

Hi what is SR? Have u had any side effects like nausea or libido problems? I was given Lexapro low dose but am scared to take it.
Wellbutrin Sustained Release...no issues at all.
I just started Wellbutrin last Friday (short time but I’ve seen massive changes already) and it’s been great so far. I love all of your videos!!! ❤️❤️
YESSS!!! ✨✨✨That’s so wonderful to hear! 💕 Thank you for sharing! I appreciate it.

I agree with keeping dosage as low as possible. I want to feel like myself with the extra boost that I need to stay balanced.

Hey Rob Congrats on your success. Can you please give an update on your Anhedonia? How is your motivation and mental on that?
Anhedonia is definitely better but it took a long while. Anhedonia is a tricky one because, at least for me, it wasn’t exactly that I didn’t get joy in my interests, cuz i could watch anime all day and be satisfied, but its kinda like you don’t have the courage and resolve and energy to do things you want to do.

Have you experienced any hair loss? I would like to try wellbutrin, but I am scared of hair loss.

@@robertmakesashow7089 good thing i am bald :D
Are you and your boyfriend still together? And if so are you the bottom or the top? I would assume the bottom 😁
Do you usually listen to people talk about their anxiety and depression and then sexually objectify them? 🤮 cool cool cool. Also, boyfriend?
