The Wellbutrin is an antidepressant and can also be taken for attention deficit disorder and to quit smoking. Klonopin is an antianxiety medication and is also used for seizure control and to control acute mania (wouldn't be used long term for mania). Any of those apply to you? Never let a doctor just put you on medications without telling you what they are for or how he expects them to do differently from what you've been on before. Otherwise you don't know what to look for.
Considering what you listed as your previous medications, I'm assuming you have depression with components of anxiety, although it does also sound feasible that you may have a panic disorder with subsequent depression (?). Either way, please take your medication consistently. If your depression hasn't responded to the other medications, you may need to have the dose of medication increased quite a bit to get any response or you may ultimately have take more than two medications to get a good effect. Don't get discouraged... stick with it and ask questions. Give me more info if this wasn't specific enough for your situation.
