I take wellbutrin and zoloft too along with an ap. Welcome to the club.
How does it work for you?
Hey i almost thought someone is mad at me again 
Yeah i take pretty high doses of both medications, i was just on wellbutrin but had some emotional downs so i started with zoloft 200mg.
Its all good so far. I feel more active and more joyful. Negative thoughts are unnoticeably passing by.
Watch out for two things: insomnia and higher sexual drive.

Since I’ve added on the wellbutrin the only difference I’ve noted is that I’m more numb feeling. Not noticing the depression as much but I know it’s there underneath. I also started taking it hoping it would help with my libido after 3 months it hasn’t helped there. I think it is helping with my weight maintenance. Back in my 20’s I took Wellbutrin for years and it was good to me till I got ill.
Edit insomnia here too when I don’t take my ap. Also taking 200 mg zoloft, 150mg wellbutrin

Yeah its lowering my appetite too.
I dont think that any medication can cure depression by itself.
I don’t think antidepressants cure depression. They just mask the symptoms of it. So superficially you are content but at your core you are still unhappy/depressed.

Its only at the beginning i think.
Are you having that problem now? I feel tired right now at work. But also violent and I wanna chop my head off when I’m in idle and I’m having diarrhea attacks.
Starting new meds sucks!
Agreed. First time i took wellbutrin i couldn’t speak consistent sentences and i had to lay down and sleep almost immediately.
Im not having that problem anymore. I think the more you think about possible side effects you might subconsciously call them. That condition even has a name… 
Just relax. Its gonna pass. Wellbutrin is the best thing happened to me since February 
Oh honey I know about Wellbutrin I been off and on it for years. One time I was up to 400mgs a day. It fills me with rage. But I like that it motivates me. I’m only taking 75mg IR so my logic is I will pee it out of me by end of day.

Oh so you are starting with Zoloft?

I’d keep an eye on impulsivity, obsessiveness, snap reactivity, triggerability, resentment, frustration, expolsive rage… in general the effect of over-stimulation, because, well…, buproprion and sertraline are neurostimulants.

But at appropriate dosage – and at appropriate length of use – they can be really helpful. Having to hold a mirror in front of my behavior is just the small price I have to pay for getting that help. (Though the mirror is almost entirely constructed of mindfulness-based cognitive psyhotherapy now.)
@Smprz84 my friend, here’s an update:
Now that combination has taken away my sleep. I sleep only like three hours in the night and two hours in the day. ( but i also take some additional shit…oh well)
How about you?
Which is powerfully sleep-cycle disrupting, btw.
