Currently on Serzone + Klonopin. Starting to feel like the Klonopin is making me more depreesed. The Serzone, no to bad, but getting tired of being lethargic.
Will be seeing my P-Doc today. Was going to ask him about Wellbutrin + Xanax.Any comments, would surely appreciated. Kindest Regards, ............Nic

I'd avoid getting started on Xanax, if at all possible. It seems like there are less addictive drugs that have similar functions. You'll like Wellbutrin if you're tired of being lethargic :)

I take Wellbutrin along with Lorezapam. I used to take Xanax, but I agree with the aforementioned. Xanax is more addictive and has higher withdrawal properties, because your body quickly builds up a tolerance to the med.
Lorezapam isn't as relaxing as Xanax, but does help with the symptoms of anxiety and situations.
I recently added Buspar to the mix, because I would rather treat the overall imbalance than just the symptoms. It's working rather well, slowly, and as the dosage gets increased. I have taken Buspar before by itself for anxiety alone in the past, and had good results then, too.
Hope this helps.
