Any or All: Those 3 medications are called antidepressants and work similarly, regulating Serotonin, epinephrine and some Dopamine. That is why not only going up but coming down on the dose can cause those symptoms. Check with your Doctor, you may have to go slower!

Depends.: One of the side-effects of Wellbutrin (bupropion) is anxiety or restlessness and all three medications can cause nausea. Headache can also be a side-effect of all three drugs. Please go back and discuss these side-effects with your doctor.

Lets review your que: I would call your primary and discuss your symptoms. You are probably feeling that way due to decrease in two of your meds. It would probably better to have decreased one of them at a time and at a slower rate to avoid withdraw symptoms
