Thanks for the encouragement Because I am so sensitive my psychiatrist started me off at 150 mg of Wellbutrin XL every other day for a week, then 150 mg every day. I was supposed to get up to 300 mg a day, but after about five days on the daily dose I went from feeling much better on the medication (no longer depressed, focused, more energy although also a little more anxiety) to very tired, felt weak and flu-like and couldn't concentrate at all. I think it made me more depressed than before I started.

I haven't tried Emsam or Cymbalta yet, but maybe I could look into those. He also mentioned I could try Remeron as another option.
