> Pdoc thinks I am ADD (on top of Bipolar II, OCD and GAD). She just added Wellbutrin to my Lamictal/Remeron/Risperdal combo. She says it helps people with ADD focus. Any thought/experiences on this?

I was on wellbutrin SR (300 mg/day) for depression but was still feeling extremely lethargic. While on the WB I started noticing a slightly increased ability to focus and organize at work. My doc and I thought I might be ADD so we added dexedrine SR. I take 40 mg/day which is a kind of high dose but for me it calms me down and helps me focus. I don't suffer from anxiety though so the stimulants don't bother me. I've heard people say that prozac is stimulating but when I took it I slept about 18 hours a day.
