Grendel,
Look out for Beowulf. Make sure that you call your mother for help... (I love the handle. Anglo-Saxon Literature is so cool.)
All these drugs seem to do different things for different people. I can nap after taking my Wellbutrin and my insomnia is gone. Insomnia was a symptom of my depression though.
There are a lot of posts about the use of Klonopin with Wellbutrin to counteract the insomnia that some people have while taking Wellbutrin. From what I read many people have had success with this strategy. Dig around. You might find it interesting.
> I've started taking Wellbutrin, and this is my 5th day on the drug. I've been having few side effects - the weight loss is great, and noticeable already. The insomnia, however, is killing me. The only way I can get any sleep at all is to knock myself out with several Klonopin. Is this insomnia common with Wellbutrin? Does it go away?
> I know next to nothing about this drug - I don't know what to expect.
