Dave,
Wellbutrin certainly can increase anxiety. Probably the best bet for reducing anxiety as far as an antidepressant goes is Remeron, though your mileage may vary. One other question. What's wrong with being "hooked" on the klonopin? You're not abusing it; you're looking for relief from anxiety. If you become physically dependent on it, as one can with K, it just means you need to taper off slowly when you want to stop. So, I wouldn't think so much in terms of "addiction" and being "dependent" as being a necessarily bad thing. Also, why take 1 every other day? If you're feeling constant anxiety and rebound anxiety between the doses, why not take, say .5 or 1mg each day. K has a long half life, but most people who take it take it at least once a day.
Best of luck to you,
Matt
