My one caution is that Wellbutrin might make worse any anxiety that might result from Cymbalta withdrawal. It may be worth a try, though.

What I did was just started taking my 60 mg. capsules every other day, then every third day, then every 4th, etc. But since finding this site, I started dividing the capsules to see if the withdrawal is a little easier on me. I started with 1/4 of a 60mg capsule but I DON'T want to take it every day! So, I'm sort of winging it. I was hoping my Wellbutrin would help.
I can't believe how difficult it is to wean off this! I have only been on it about 2 months, and it's my first experience with antidepressants. (The Wellbutrin was prescribed to help me quit smoking, and I've never had any problem with it.)
