Wellbutrin (depression and weight loss)

[trying ungracefully]

My psychiatrist brought up Wellbutrin for my depression. I am already on a six different meds so it is costly every month. One of them is for my weight, metformin, and it doesn't help a lot but it helps.

I am just wondering how it would help with depression and if the weight loss (even maintaining) is effective enough for me to stop taking metformin so it isn't just another charge every month. I couldn't ask her because I accidentally scheduled my therapy and psychiarist appointment at the same time so I had to be quick with my psychiatrist. I don't want to make an appointment right now either because I am trying to see if vitamin d works, I am giving it another week, my next appointments in three weeks.

I was on Wellbutrin for a little while, it got me out of bed but ive not met anyone who would really recommend it. It made me and others spiral a lot more. Still, it has no weight gain, and it helped me quit smoking.
