I'm on the same path, for about two weeks now. This week, though, I'll see my doctor about changing from Ritalin to Adderall, because of horrible headaches from the Ritalin.
It's working a charm for me, too, although between the Wellbutrin, the Ritalin, and my existing anxiety disorder, well, there are days I feel as though I'll jump out of my skin. But I suspect that could be from the anxiety disorder alone, due to what's going on in my life right now. It's amazing -- I don't think I was really aware of how much residual depression I had going, until I started this and the depression lifted a bit. More than a little, less than completely. But it's a hell of a lot better for me, and hope it continues to help so much.
Now to ease my doctor into addressing the anxiety without stopping the stimulant...
