> I have tried many forms of welbutrin and didn't get a blip. I'm starting to wonder if my over tiredness today is from the medication. I'm usually like this for a few days when starting a new med. Tiredness is already my worst symptoms for my depression so this sucks (lol)

Have you checked your blood pressure? I think hypotension is one potential cause of feeling tired on an MAOI. Mine was as low as 100/56 on the second or third day of taking Emsam - not much lower than normal, but I did feel a little more out of it those days. Later on it was typically around 110/70. (I'm not sure what my blood pressure looks like when not on medication, but on Wellbutrin it's usually close to 120/80.)
