Default focusing problems with wellbutrin??

I have been on wellbutrin for a week. I have a hard time keeping focused on things for any length of time. My husband even asked me if the medicine i started was giving me problems concentrating?? I think that my mind has a hundred things going thru it that I cant stay on one. One thing I love is when I walk thru the grocery store i used to fight not to get junk food now i look at it and it discusts me.....There is even a box of fudge rounds in the cupboard since friday...normally they wouldnt last a day because they are my favorite but I have like lost my desire for them. If anyone else seemed to notice any problems with focusing let me know...maybe my head is just adjusting to it...

Default It should pass

The side effects should pass and you will get used to it. Stick with it!

I had major problems focusing. It actually didn't get all that much better until after the first 9 months. I knew because I had to go to school and work, which needed concentration. I also felt really out of most of the time. But to me...not focusing is not necessarily a bad thing, as I don't have to dwell on little details that usually depress me. I still have concentration problems, but they're not that bad.
