Dopaminergics: selegiline (5-15mg/day in divided doses) or a direct agonist (pramipexole, ropinirole, cabergoline, bromocriptine, pergolide)

This will potentiate the antidepressant effect of the Wellbutrin, which is already quite noradrenergic but only weakly dopaminergic. I'd be doing this along with the wellbutrin if my psychiatrist would let me.

Of course, the other option is dextroamphetamine/methamphetamine or methylphenidate, but the above drugs have fewer [adrenergic] side effects and are not controlled substances.
