hi. I don't think they oppose each other per se. When I took Adderall with Abilify...that was just strange. Abilify dampened the effect of the Adderall and the combo was strange to experience.

Wellbutrin is mildly stimulating, but its not an amphetamine. It inhibits the reuptake of dopamine and norepinephrine a little bit, so I guess its sort of like extra-mild Ritalin in that regard. Anyway...the effect has been mild stimulation and (much needed) mood elevation. Better concentration, less hunger, less moodiness overall.

I do think the Abilify probably reduces the stimulation from the wellbutrin, which in my case is probably a good thing. At the same time, the Wellbutrin still works: I'm less sedated from the trileptal+lamictal combination and I'm in a better mood.

I don't know what's actually going on in my brain right now, but...the overall effect has been quite helpful.
