Trazadone is often combined with SSRIs or SNRIs (often to offset insomnia). Trazodone tends to be a bit weaker as an antidepressant (in lower doses) but can be good for insomnia / anxiety. There are studies with trazodone / antipsychotic combinations showing improvement in core symptoms with the addition of trazodone.
The list I made is by no means 100% definitive. It is possible that you respond very well to Wellbutrin. However, it acts predominantly on norepinephrine and dopamine. It has a different side effect profile than SSRIs. Chemically, it is related to amphetamine. It tends to be more activating / stimulating. It can supress appetite, occasionally cause seizures, and is associated with more psychotic side effects than say fluvoxamine.
You can get a good indication simply by googling "Wellbutrin + psychosis". Do the same for "fluvoxamine + psychosis".
For fluvoxamine, most articles are related to improving psychosis. For Wellbutrin most articles are related worsening psychosis.
