Wellbutrin effects primarily norepinephrine. It tends not to be a potent AD either. The only reason I would give Wellbutrin a trial is for it's inability to cause sexual disfunction, which is a problem with most ADs. Even though I experience anorgasmia at times, personally, I would not try Wellbutrin. Like I said, and most pdocs would agree, Wellbutrin is not an effective AD in treating severe depression. Other ADs that do not impair one's sex life are Remeron and Serzone. The thing is they can be sedating. If sex is that important to you, other ADs have given you a problem in this area, and your depression is not making you run to your nearest gun dealer, then Wellbutrin might be for you. Good luck!
