> It deals with seratonin but not the same way as SSRIs. Cuz I don't handle SSRIs well either. I can't remember/describe what it does, but it's different. I believe it blocks the whole receptor, rather than reducing reuptake(?).

It activates (agonises) the receptor, it doesn't block (antagonise) it.

> Um. Can I ask a question? If you're stable on Wellbutrin, why're you adding trazodone, a second AD? Is your depression only partially treated by Wellbutrin, or does Trazodone have a purpose I don't know about?

Trazodone is more commonly used as a sedative-hypnotic.
