Yeah. Forget about the bupropion and add memantine, d-amphetamine, or both. Perhaps a TCA (despiramine) or another NE uptake inhibitor? There are many other options.
I don't want to start any flame wars, but frankly bupropion is a joke. It's a very weak psychostimulant with active metabolites. It makes you feel more dysphoric instead of more euphoric in high doses--otherwise it would be a controlled substance. Diethylpropion (Tenuate) is a schedule IV controlled substance.
It is good for helping smokers quit, though.
