Experiences on Wellbutrin SR and XL?

I was prescribed Wellbutrin SR 100 mg for depression. I experienced mild drowsiness the first 3 days, which disappeared. And I had to take it after a meal since otherwise it would cause an upset stomach, but then again I was diagnosed with H. pylori (a bacteria that causes gastritis) and am still on prescription antacids. So that could just make me more susceptible to an upset stomach anyway. I was able to sleep just fine. I noticed only a subtle change in mood, and they thought they would increase my dosage since I seemed to tolerate it just fine. So they switched me to Wellbutrin XL 150 mg. I was going to take it this morning. But today I woke up at 4 am (after going to bed at 12:30 am) and am feeling this crazy boost of energy and feel way too focused or something (maybe like the effects of adderall)? Should I just stay on the 100 mg for today and possibly for the rest of the weekend? If I can get a hold of my psychiatrist, I'll talk to her in a few hours about it.
Anyone have any experiences on Wellbutrin SR and XL that they want to share?
