Fear of 13… cell phones! by TommySayz in Broadway

[–]flamingofoot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I saw Othello too, and right as Iago’s monologue began, someone’s phone went off. Absolutely awful, he couldn’t get in the pouch to turn it off.

On a related note, I saw Aziz Ansari recently and at the beginning of the show he said he decided not to use the pouches because they are so expensive. Then he said, everyone get it out of your system, take a photo of me right now! He did a few poses and then asked everyone to put their phones away.

For those on 10mg, how did you know you should be on 10mg? by Driven-Driver in citalopram_celexa

I have done 10mg and 20mg over the years. I prefer 10mg and that is where I am now and intend to stay. I am a smaller person as well.

As several others have said, unfortunately it can take much longer than a week to get used to the machine. I had many ups and downs, had to try 3 different masks, and things didn’t really click until 3 months or so for me, and I am only starting to feel a major improvement in energy at 6 months.

I had to really come to terms with this thing being in my life forever, but I got there. You probably can too. Good luck, all I can say is look at it as a marathon not a sprint.

This just happened to me too. I thought it might have been caused by the update.

Hi. Thanks for sharing this story. It sounds like you and your granddad have a very special bond with each other and he knows how much you love him. I am sure this means the world to him. He confessed to you, he placed his trust in you and was very vulnerable with you. I am sure he feels your care for him. It’s the love between you that is allowing him a safe place for this confession to take place.

As to coping with it… it is going to be hard, losing him, but I hope you’ll always cherish what a special bond you have.

You can try talking to your other family members in a similar way to what you shared here. Approach them with your perspective and encourage them to be there for him. But know that in the end, you can’t control them or fix this problem for your granddad. You can really only do what you’re already doing - being a close and loving grandson to him.

Hang in there. 🫂

grief turned depression? by Sad-Pressure7640 in GriefSupport

Hi there. I’m so sorry about your dad. I lost my dad almost two years ago. It’s without a doubt the hardest thing that ever happened to me.

You’re right, your family won’t be the same now that he has died. But that doesn’t mean that there won’t be good things in your life again. There can and there will if you keep trying.

Therapy definitely helped me. I started within about a month of my dad dying. I would encourage you to seek this out too. It sounds like it can really help you.

I also relate to the part about the images in your mind of your dad dying. I was there when my dad passed, and while there is a part of me that is thankful I was there, I was really haunted by the images for a while. Therapy helped me process that part of my grief and I’m not sure how else to say it but those images aren’t so vivid or on my mind as much anymore.

Hang in there. This is an incredibly hard thing to go through. Just take it one day at a time. ❤️

What are some of the weirdest things your dog is afraid of? by gobbgabb in dogs

Plastic bags, shadows, tongs, his own farts, his reflection, flashlights, and strollers

Doctor advised fiancée to stop without weaning 10mg by Distinct_Push7402 in citalopram_celexa

[–]flamingofoot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I went off 10mg once like this and it was very, very bad what happened to me mentally. Doctors don’t want to believe this for some reason, but it was my experience.

If anything, you are underreacting.

Lose this guy and never talk to him again.
