1) You will know how much cannabis is too much when you feel it. :?) Just take it slow when you're smoking it (maybe waiting a couple minutes or so after each hit) so that you can accurately gauge how you're feeling. Eventually you'll get more and more acquainted with judging where that level is without even having to take it too slow.
2) i drank while on Wellbutrin. If you're susceptible to seizures or are on a pretty high dose it's better not to drink, since as the alcohol wears off there's a rebound neural excitation (which could aggravate anxiety and potentially cause seizures with the Wellb.).> Thanks so much for your replies. Now comes the experimentation.

The anxiety came roaring like a freight train on Saturday, and really didn't let up until this Friday afternoon. I was managing it with tiny doses of Ativan during the day, but I was beginning to wonder if I needed a higher dose of Wellbutrin, or if it was time to try another AD.
