I started Wellbutrin a week ago (half of a 75 mgs. pill once a day). I am now having constant diarhea and severe headaches. Could this be the Wellbutrin?

i never had intestinal stuff, but definately headaches. every time i adjusted my dose i had headaches. for several months i also had to make sure i took my doses with food or i got nauseated.
i am taking the 75mg immediate release pills as well. i've been stable on 5 of them a day --a bit away from where you are at, huh? :-) some say that the side-effects of the immediate release can be more pronounced than with the sustained release. i think this is probably accurate, but there are tradeoffs to both types and i have tried both i.r. and s.r.
if it helps, i no longer have side effects. but the first week, for me, of any adjustment in the wellbutrin gives me headaches. or if i don't take my dose on schedule i get a headache as well, so i try to stay very routine about it.
