All of these are sedating, and I believe you would find one or more of them helpful for your insomnia. The Wellbutrin is certainly indicated for the libido problem and has proven efficacy. There is some evidence that dopamine agonists (bromocriptine, Mirapex, etc.) may also be helpful for hypoactive sexual desire, but my opinion is that these have more side effects than does Wellbutrin.

Thanks for your fast reply. I forgot to mention that I am hoping to start trying to conceive soon. I don't know if that makes a difference. The insomnia is pretty much gone now - esp. because I take my Zoloft at bedtime and it makes me a little sleepy. Mr DR suggested Wellbutrin because it's a Schedule B and in a worst case scenario, I could continue it while PG.

Thanks :)
