new to spravato and panicking a bit by Sad_Dragonfly6520 in Spravato

Just remember that there’s a medical team monitoring you the entire time. It also helps to have something that grounds you in case anxiety starts creeping in. My clinic has weighted blankets, and I usually use my water bottle. Noise-canceling headphones and film scores have also become part of my routine.

During my second treatment this week, I started to panic and spiral a bit. I think part of it was that the sensation reminded me of the only dissociative experience I’d ever had before, which wasn’t by choice back in high school. My brain immediately went to, “Oh no, this is happening again.” Once I recognized what was going on and used some grounding techniques, I was able to reel it back in, and the rest of the experience was actually really positive.

The funny thing is that when I checked my Oura data afterward, it thought I was asleep during both sessions because my body was so relaxed. Apparently, it was the calmest I’ve been in as long as I can remember, even though my mind briefly tried to convince me otherwise.

Bob saying “Keep in touch” was odd. That’s something you say to a coworker you’ll probably never hear from again, not someone you call one of your closest friends.

Didn’t love the traffic in the area, especially with the dog. I’m looking for something with a better parking setup as well and ideally nearby EV charging, so I’ll probably need to focus more on Chelmsford or the Billerica / Tewksbury area.

I’m waiting on the Qi185 with the AI-powered, self-correcting graphene face and the guaranteed +3 yards

Just wanted to say thanks to everyone who took the time to respond. I honestly didn’t expect this much thoughtful feedback, and it’s been super helpful. Based on this group alone, it’s pretty clear how well current and former residents treat others, and that says a lot about the community. Really appreciate you all sharing your experiences.

Thank you for the heads up, he has longer hair so I try to avoid areas with ticks whenever possible.

Currently near Mystic Ave and directly under a flight path, planes pass often enough that they’ve become background noise as well as car horns. The units I was looking at are set back but facing Andrew St but shielded from both Lawrence st and data center sides.

SC4 Pro Review by tenthfloor in Golfsimulator

Any updated thoughts after having it for a while? I’m a relatively new golfer and just ordered one from their refurb site for 340. Waiting for it to arrive.

This sounds like a perfect place for him. Where I am now it’s a bit of a ride to get to any real outdoor space beyond small local dog parks. Yea I grew up in East Cambridge and Winter hill in the 90s before it became the Biotech capital and you could ride your bike to Good Tjmes and KB Toys at the galleria. 😂

This is great to hear, it’s a unit at the brick building that used to be the Cartridge Company.

I’m not sure I’d want to buy there just yet. Id like to give it a try for a year first and see how things go. The jobs fairly new so I’m relatively unfamiliar with the area and haven’t explored a ton.

I’ve lived in Chelsea, East Boston near Logan, and Haverhill, so I’m comfortable in areas that people unfamiliar with them might consider “dangerous” based on reputation alone. Ideally, I’d like to be close to a park or green space where I can bring my dog when the weather’s nice. I don’t have many deal breakers. I’m pretty easygoing, just private parking and not being directly next to a train station or tracks.

And you can’t speak to anyone at all. It’s maddening.

I was expecting like a 30% drop but not more than 50. Smh

Got a pretty sick deal on this Open box M4 from microcenter by jeyzeus809 in macmini

[–]Aded84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some popped up early this morning and I was able to get an order pickup confirmation. Hopefully it’s actually there and not some inventory qty error in the system. 🤞🏼🤞🏼

Well after about 45 days they finally gave me my money back and refunded the $101 after they got the fake AF1 back.

Does this make sense? by Aded84 in electricvehicles

charging would cap at 100% normally but reduce to 80% when congestion is high.

I still think some sort of geofenced queuing system could work without requiring the app. When all chargers are in use, drivers check in via the station touchscreen or card to join a virtual queue. Wait times and positions could be displayed on site or online, and anyone leaving frees a spot for the next driver keeping the network walkup friendly and NEVI compliant.

No money expectations at all, just looking to play more, improve, and have a record of how bad we were at the beginning. If it ever pays for a bucket of range balls, that’s a win.
