For the first couple of weeks the first time I took it, Bupropion:

- made me feel pretty energetic. Not buzzed, but maybe counteracted low-grade depression. I was on it because I wanted to quit smoking, because I was hoping quitting smoking would make me feel better/happier

- slightly affected my vision/perception. Colours seemed more vibrant. Everything just felt perceptually… brighter.

- made me really horny, but not in a compulsive way. It wasn’t distracting and didn’t cause any problems, but I definitely had more drive. When it was go time, it was Go Time :)

What's up with the bullet points? This almost reads like a ChatGPT/AI comment, which is especially weird for a personal recollection. Are people writing like frickin robots now?

  • Don’t be an ass. People used lists before LLMs.

    • They’re just lucky I didn’t have a big run-on sentence, like I used to before taking a serious look at how ADHD affected my writing and thought processes, including significant use of parentheticals (because every thought comes with a couple of extra thoughts, for free!)

      :D
