Severe bouts of depression and memory loss

I'm almost 3 years out now and have pretty well stabilized. Lost from 290 to 155-165 (I'm ok with keeping a 10 pound area to bounce). Anyway, I was on Wellbutrin prior to surgery and continued to take it after surgery, only changed from the XL to a generic version to take 3 times a day as I was afraid I wouldn't get enough in my system by taking an extended dispensing drug. I told my internist that I was still have bouts of depression (he's the one who prescribed Wellbutrin) and sleeping. So in addition to Wellbutrin, he added Xanax to help the depression and sleep. Helps the sleep very well but I feel I'm on a yoyo for my mental health. Go off the deep end over nothing a lot and have considered ending it all. On top of that, I'm having memory problems. Yes, I'm almost 60 years old but I don't think that would explain the severe memory loss (ordered things twice over the phone and very surprised when I got 2 of the same item because I had ordered twice). I know my diet isn't the best, don't dump from sweets and tend to eat too much of that and still am not hungry most of the time and can only eat small portions at meals. So it's probably a mix of all that. Can a vitamin deficiency be causing any/all of this? I do take my multivitamin every day, extra E and C, dont always get in all my calcium and my E. Can take any advise you might have.
