i've never taken wellbutrin but i'd still be on the safe side and not quit cold turkey. despite what people say, antidepressives and other such medications can be addictive and when i made the mistake of quitting celexa cold turkey, it was horrible. however, when i quit zoloft, i down about 25 mg for two weeks, and then 25 the next week and so on. even in that situation it was still difficult, but that made it a lot better. if i were you, i would do more research into your specific medication. good luck
