I am currently on this combo with great success.
I was on Effexor 75 mg for 5 years and although it was working pretty well, I felt spacey at times and had alot of weight gain.
My Doc thought we would try Wellbutrin to supplement the E (per my recommendation from reading this forum) and it has helped cut down my appetite quite a bit... I can't say that it has done much for the spaciness, but if Weight gain or sexual dys is your problem, you might give it a try.
I even thought that once it started working I could cut back my E... I tried it for a short while, but it didn't work... At 37.5 mg of E and 150 mg of W my Anxiety was back full force...
So I increased my E and cut back the W and am doing much better... Still not perfect but we keep trying :-)
