Is this your only: Psychiatric drug? Post traumatic stress disorder is more often treated with selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (ssri's). Although both sedation and depressed mood are potential side effects for wellbutrin (bupropion) xl - usually people have more energy ; it is an antidepressant. Please discuss medications with your psychiatrist/ medical provider. Take care.

Depressed on meds: You need to report your condition to your doctor and be seen to re-evaluate your medication and make any changes necessary to help you feel better.
