I too only took *1* dose, and couldn't believe how 1 little pill could make me feel so sick, for SO long.  Honestly, it was a good 2 weeks before I felt mostly back to normal, and several weeks longer before I felt completely back to normal.  It was awful. 


The Wellbutrin made me feel sort of like I had the flu in many ways, and very dizzy, but there were other bizarre things too, like the smell of coffee (which I love) and the smell of many other things, made me feel so sick and nauseous.  I was also crying at first, but not really feeling sad, just sort of like the tears were leaking out for no reason.  Strange!


I told my doctor about it right away.  (I called her office, cause I halfway thought I was dying!), and she didn't seem concerned or surprised.  She jotted something in my chart about the Wellbutrin causing 'blue flu.'  I asked her if I was allergic to it, and she said no, not allergic, just an adverse reaction (I'll say!).  I felt like telling her to but in my record that I AM allergic to it, just to be safe. 


So long story short, 1 pill can make you very sick if you have a bad reaction to it, and you're not alone.  Hope you're feeling better!
