      Biggest issue is that I sleep too much, taking a lot of naps in the middle of the day, and I doze off when doing long repetitive tasks, particularly driving. Thankfully my girlfriend prefers driving so I don’t have to do long drives myself very often, but when I do I build in extra time to occasionally pull over and take a quick nap.

      Other issue is that I sweat too much, I was already a sweaty person but basically if it’s above 75F I’m dripping now

      That’s on 300mg of Wellbutrin xr and 10mg twice daily of buspar. It’s also hard to disentangle the effects of the buspar vs the Wellbutrin

        buspar

        not familiar with that, what is it like?

        I had night sweats for the first month of wellbutrin, and also had a couple weeks where I was tired, but that seemed to go away for me.

          It’s kinda the reverse Wellbutrin, where Wellbutrin treats depression but not anxiety, Buspar treats anxiety but not depression. Between the two of them it’s like a whole SSRI but your dick still works.
