Regarding Wellbutrin, I had the same problem with constipation. My doctor suggested dietary changes, and lots of water and exercise. The result? The constipation went away and I lost 50 pounds in about a year. I believe I read the Serzone doesn't have many sexual side effects.
Also I read about some foreign drugs that seem promising. Amineptine (Survector) is a selective dopamin reuptake blocker with good effects on cognitive functioning and motivation. One of the side effects is spontaneous orgasms (maybe this is why a few people abused it). It's only available through mail order from foreign pharmacies. The Dr Bob's Tips section here seems kind of old, but it has a really good discussion of sexual side effects.
You may get better results by combining medications like Celexa and Wellbutrin. If you could take a lower dose of the Wellbutrin, you'd be less likely to get constipated.
