I work in health care for a small team and we always have a hard time booking something for a little
Christmas get together because everything’s booked already by mid September!

There typically ends up being about 25 ish people roughly and we just want to eat and have drinks but in an atmosphere that’s either private or really open concept so we can walk around and mingle - but we’re also wondering if maybe there is something a little more fun we can do together. We have to pay for our own stuff and do everything ourselves so we
Aren’t interested in paying to rent a
Room or Space, something we can either pay a ticket/admission price for and just attend, or order off the menu kind of thing.

Ultimately I’ll just book something at a restaurant if we can’t find anything, but is there any little hole in the wall things that maybe we aren’t aware of? Age of guests is about 30-60 ish

I was on this for off label adhd and even though it was overall great, I couldn’t get past the insomnia and stopped a week ago- was on for a total of 7 months, 150mg xl for most of it with a trial of 300mg for 3 months.

Wondering if anyone stopped because of insomnia and if so, did your sleep return to normal eventually?! I’ve only been off a week and though my sleep is already been better, I’m starting to get fixated on it returning - just looking for some hope I’m going to get past this!!

I stopped taking this because I have been having chronic fragmented sleep gradually getting worse throughout treatment and the sleep debt was getting to me-

I was taking for off label adhd (no anxiety or depression) - but I’m day 4 of stopping and I have horrible insomnia (worse then the sleep on it!), and now I basically have anxiety and depression I can’t believe how horrible I feel right now mentally!!

Anyone have this when stopping? Please tell me it passes?!!

Anyone ever experience a more sudden onset of fragmented sleep on Wellbutrin xl?

I started 150mg last August and I can’t recall but I don’t remember ever noticing sleep issues: I went up to 300mg in December and then in January I started noticing some fragmented sleep- started out occasionally, at first I didn’t even notice it, but then ended up being nightly to the point I felt like I was just lying in bed with my eyes closed all night.

So in May I went down to 150mg again and my sleep immediately resolved that night. But then around the 4 week mark at the reduced dose, the same sleep pattern is back with a vengeance. I’m interestingly enough feeling mentally fine all day and not stressing about my sleep, falling asleep with good sleep hygiene and no pressure, and I’m right back to skimming the surface of sleep all night again for almost 2 weeks again!! I’ve also started with night sweats the last 3 days which is very new for me! I am female but this is not typical for me hormonally.

Has this ever happened to anyone? I feel so confused this would start now or at least become so pronounced?

I am also on it for off label adhd treatment, Not for primary depression/anxiety (though I do get secondary anxiety and depression when not treated)

Thinking of trying to switch to SR? Anyone have sleep issues with XL and then have success switching to SR?

Help! We went 10 years in our house without mice and now I have our second invasion in the last 5 months and I have filled every single visible crack and mentally am ready to pay someone to help me try to figure out where they’re coming in lol.

ALSO we have lots of wasps already this year and I’m seeing them go into our siding - we sprayed a few days ago and now dead wasps are showing up in my basement! I’m allergic to wasps so this can’t keep up!

Any recommendations for pest control that would be able to look at both?!

TIA

Anyone else missing babes + blends?! They had a few products (lice away spray, the bugs away spray and their deodorant) that I absolutely loved and am missing! I’ve been trying to recreate my own versions as similar as possible but I suck lol- anyone have any good recipes for these things or know any other good locally made substitutes?! I wish I could even buy their recipes, I’d hate doing it myself less if I knew it would work and be as great as theirs!

Hello! I started taking bupropion xl 150mg off label for adhd last fall.

I have also struggled with seasonal affective disorder my entire life.

In December I felt like the 150mg wasn’t quite enough and went up to 300mg, which I have since tolerated great- great effectiveness and no side effects, overall feeling very calm and relaxed which was the goal!

Now about 6 weeks ago, the weather turned nice suddenly where I live and I noticed I felt SOO good, I joked about how I was bordering on hypomanic as people around me were even noticing it, and now the last few weeks I’ve felt agitated and my sleep is out of no where gradually getting worse (fragmented, not a true insomnia)!

Wondering if it’s possible that as the nice weather activated my mood, that maybe now the 300mg dose is too much for me, looking to see if anyone else experienced this!!

On SSRIs in the past this did not happen to me, and there is absolutely no external life stressors contributing in my life right now!
