I've been on Welbutrin for years, always in combination with something else. If I miss a day, I feel it. (Never been diagnosed with ADHD, though.)

Thank you, everyone for sharing your meds stories with me. It makes me feel less alone in all of this.

And in more funny old school Bitch content. I keep seeing velvet and crushed velvet clothes everywhere and I want to buy it all out of pure nostalgia. However, I probably shouldn’t be spending money on clothes when I don’t go anywhere, and I’m not sure it is wise to be wearing the fashions my 12 year old self wore.

Sj yay for a good night's sleep.

I double checked my schedule for next week. I swear I was working 2:30 to 11 on Thanksgiving and 9 to 5:30 on Friday.

But now it says 2:30-pm 11pm n Wednesday and 7am -3:30 on Thanksgiving.

I know they probably have changed the schedule a few times and probably can't change it again and there are people with longer commutes (several ppl live an hour a way) and we aren't staffed for this kind of hours.

There is a hotel almost across the street from the mall and I may see about booking a room for that night. I mean people aren't traveling so maybe one will be available.

Sleep, blessed sleep! So good to read that the meds worked.

Askye, that schedule is pure evil. Good luck.

So, I have alarms going off every half hour telling me to take my med, and it is great because I'm also grabbing a small something to eat at the same time so that the meds don't upset my stomach. I might not be eating the most healthy of things, but in general I do better if I don't let myself get too hungry.

I'm glad you're getting good results, sj! (And a little sad how amazed we all are at decent health care).

That schedule is some kinda bullshit, askye. I hope you find a plan that works for you. I'm sure the expense of a hotel room is not something you relish, but a quiet room all to yourself might be a nice treat, it seems like.

I keep telling myself it's one night and we aren't open until midnight like we have been.

The store hours are extended more to almost regular hours but for fulfillment we go in early and stay late.

I'm hoping after the holidays they reduce the hours again.

I'm glad you're getting good results, sj! (And a little sad how amazed we all are at decent health care).

Yes, when new doc was actually listening to me and being sympathetic, I wanted to cry. No one has been taking me seriously.

A good, compassionate doctor who recognizes that you have a brain even if it's not medically trained is worth her weight in gold. I'm glad you found someone, sj, and that the gabapentin worked so well for you.

askye, I mean, you're right, it's only one night, but I only ever schedule myself with shit like that when I was managing a store. That's crappy; I'm sorry.
