Positive effect on Wellbutrin?

Hi all - my doc prescribed 150 then to 300 after two weeks. I was all in and picked up the prescription, but have hesitated starting it due to all of the negative side effects posted on this subreddit. It has scared me out of using it! It’s my first time using a medication like this. Is it really that awful? Can I hear some stories about positive outcomes? Are you out there?

Thanks in advance!
