Due to turning the ripe old age of 26, I no longer have insurance. The antidepressants I have been taking (Wellbutrin) cost me a mere $7.00 a month when comfortably insured; without that comfort, Wellbutrin costs $78.00. That's right, sugar plums-- a simple $71.00 more. What a bunch of crazy bull shiiiiii... I don't have any pills left, so I have had to stop cold tofurkey. Not pleasant in the slightest. Mostly I have felt suuuuper sluggish and a bit out-of-my-body-- like my soul is one step behind my body. Weird? Yeah. Oh, and I have also chewed my fingernails down to the quick. Neat! Here is a list of symptoms of Wellbutrin withdrawals. I suspect thou shalt not read the entire list, so I have made bold some of the symptoms I thought were the wackiest. You may just read the wacky ones if you wish. IF YOU WISH!!!

if you can still get into uvu's health center, they have free/reduced cost meds that you can get if you qualify. the only time i was ever to afford wellbutrin was when i was on the free meds program @ uvu. you should check it out (also: mexico?) good luck. sorry you are having to deal with this.
Is Spain like Mexico? If so, I will seriously mail you some.
Thank you for your concern/help. It really means a lot. I am doing better-- my Dad is going to help me pay for the prescription. Soon enough I will be sane again. Well, maybe not SANE sane, but sane enough to function.
everyone I know who tried to "kick the habit" had a TERRIBLE time. Good thing you have a sweet dad.
