That sounds pretty reasonnable actually. I assume the Wellbutrin is because of depression. It's a good drug but , in my experience, things can get worse before they get better. I find benzos help me get trough the first few days (shaking, insomnia, some hypomania in my case although this is supposed to be unusual.) In any case, good luck!

I am scared that this is a lot of med to be taking(of course I would swallow an elephant if it can stop the insanity) I guess I am just looking for some hand holding. I am also on 300mg of wellbutrin. Any hints on evaluating my doc...he seems competent but I have no basis to judge.
