Today I woke up after an evening of fun with my partner and commented that I always had a stuff nose or slight headache morning's after.
We joked that that couldn't be a real thing.. Turns out it is. Honeymoon Rhinitis. The condition appears to be genetically determined and caused by the presence in the nose of erectile tissue which may become engorged during sexual arousal, as a side effect of the signals from the autonomic nervous system that trigger changes in the genitals of both men and women.
A related condition called sexually induced sneezing also exists, where people sneeze, sometimes uncontrollably, when engaging in or even thinking about sexual activity.[2]
A phenomenon presumably related to honeymoon rhinitis is the frequent side effect of nasal congestion during the use of Viagra or related phosphodiesterase type 5 antagonists.[3]
This is my third time on Wellbutrin, first time on 5 years. Taking 150 XL for 8 days. No honeymoon period this time, but it's working, helping restore drive to normal levels and alleviating anehdonia.
Heart rate has not been too affected. Resting rate went up 1-2bpm and think is already balancing back. Sleep has been slightly lighter but not hard to fall asleep.
What is killing me is the the congestion. Sometimes accompanied by rhinitis, but the worst is just the sort of swelling shut of one nasal passage. If I didn't have this issue I'd probably be sleeping deep already.
From what I understand we can't even safely take decongestants on this med. Saline rinses are not helping. Menthol inhalers are barely better than placebo. I have used small amount of phenylephrine spray, the relief is very temporary and burns though.
Wtf are we supposed to do if we get this common side effect? I do not remember having it the first two times around. I was first on 450mg more than 10 years ago, and while that dose had me full of side effects I don't recall this particular one.
FWIW it's not covid. We still live like there's an active pandemic and I work from home.
Do your worst!
For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.
I said "hey look, an escaPEA"
No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!
Edit: I can't believe how much this has blown up. Thank you everyone I've had a blast reading through the replies 😂
It really does, I swear!
They’re on standbi
Pilot on me!!
Dad jokes are supposed to be jokes you can tell a kid and they will understand it and find it funny.
This sub is mostly just NSFW puns now.
If it needs a NSFW tag it's not a dad joke. There should just be a NSFW puns subreddit for that.
Edit* I'm not replying any longer and turning off notifications but to all those that say "no one cares", there sure are a lot of you arguing about it. Maybe I'm wrong but you people don't need to be rude about it. If you really don't care, don't comment.

This morning, my 4 year old daughter.
Daughter: I'm hungry
Me: nerves building, smile widening
Me: Hi hungry, I'm dad.
She had no idea what was going on but I finally did it.
Thank you all for listening.

Nothing, it just waved
Me grabbing a soda from my (what I thought was) half full 12pk...
Notices there's only 2;
Me: "Awe man... This is a damn bird box!" Her: "What the hell does that mean?!" Me: (Pulls both cans out & shows them to her) "It's only got Toucans."
I'm not ashamed to admit the look on her face was glorious.
I was just sitting there doing nothing.
“BOOM”?!
"That's what they're fighting about."
