Preston,
I have taken both Paxil and Zoloft with Wellbutrin at the same time. I didn't have problems with increased anxiety on Wellbutrin (I was taking 450mg) but I realize everyone is not the same. I started to experience an emotional flatness and lack of motivation from the Zoloft but after a much longer time. Only then did I take Wellbutrin alone. I don't know if the Wellbutrin would cause you sleep problems or not- it could possibly interfere with the insomnia on Zoloft as your tapering off. Maybe if you can stand it, try ramping up on Wellbutrin while slowly tapering off Zoloft- something like 150mg of Wellbutrin for a week or two, then 300mg. At the same time decrease your Zoloft from 75mg or so in the beginning- just an idea.
