"I had used bupropion XL three years ago for SAD (seasonal affective disorder)and it helped. I started again this end of November 2019. After 4 weeks it started to work. I would recommend starting take the first week that Daylight saving time ends. November 1 or even before. It might be best to start taking when you notice that the days are getting shorter and it bother you. I intent to taper down the first week of March 8 as long as I feeling well. I can not say it help with ADD. I am taking 150mg extend release."

"I was originally prescribed this for seasonal affective disorder. I took this for about two years. I then went off. I have notice that seasonal issues slowly begin to reappear. I also noticed that my self diagnosed ADD issues were really beginning to get the best of me, especially the thoughts running wild when I should be sleeping. I noticed an immediate change but going back onto Bupropion XL 150 mg. This has helped to keep me focused and has given me a regular sleep ability again even though I am a 2nd shifter. I am glad to have my life back."
