Someone told me that Wellbutrin prevents Cymbalta from being "metobolized" which means it accumulates / becomes more potent the more Wellbutrin you add. Cymbalta at high doses can make you tired, letharic, and unmotivated. Either try cutting back some of the cymbalta - or taking it 12 hours after the Welbutrin for a few days and see what happens.
> This has been discussed in various posts but I'm curious about Provigil. Suposedly it's prescribed to keep you awake and alert. In my case, I take 200 in the morning and 100 around noon and I'm still ready to sleep on my keyboard. Any ideas? Here's my cocktail:

> Wellbutrin XL 300
> Cymbalta 120 mg
> Lamictal 100 mg
> Provigil 250 mg
> Klonopin for sleep
