Since the SR is now available in generic, it is cheaper. However, I found the new XL version of Wellbutrin to be more gentle in the way it is released with fewer side effects. My insurance really punishes me for using the new brand name meds; $30 copay versus $5 for the generics.

I think I've decided to just ask the purpose of this drug this time. I think I'm very lucky to be in a good canadian health care system where wether I've been working and not recieved health care there is government assistance for most antidepressants, the only ones I've encountered that aren't covered are sleeping pills.
I also don't know which is better a flash of anger or saddness.
Thanks for your input though :)
