Hi,
I take Wellbutrin and have a "wicked" coffee and decaf habit. I take 300 mg of the XL version in the am and it helps a great deal. (With my illness, not the coffee habit)
So my ideas are:
1) take the XL version once a day.
2) take it in the am since it can have a stimulating affect.
3) make sure the nasty headaches aren't caffeine withdrawal headaches.
4) try "Zyban"-it is the anti-smoking form of Wellbutrin (what is prescribed for folks without a depression dx that want to quit smoking). I couldn't tolerate Zyban but love Wellbutrin - which just proves how little we know about the body.
5) try lots of caffeine when you feel a hedache coming on. Also lots of loud rock helps me get rid of a "pulsing" headache.
