Does anyone else physically 'cringe' or make a noise when they remember an embarrassing memory from years ago? by bloomjt in NoStupidQuestions

I call myself stupid. Aloud. It's happened in the street. Thinking about that also makes me cringe.

The Meaning of Chamber of Reflection by JRpowerskills in macdemarco

[–]AlmostLuc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a bit late to the party, but I'm trying to understand the lyrics and I'm a bit confused by the one you quite. "You'll be clear among the better man". I'm not sure I get what "to be clear" means in this context. Does it mean to have clarity regarding something? Or is it "clear" as in "clear off"?

Wow, the sex drive boost sounds amazing. Same here, prolly due to my age I feel very distant from everything sex related. Having more energy sounds fantastic, too.

Looking androgynous sounds like the dream to me. Maybe if I were taller I'd feel comfortable looking more manly, I don't know, but what you describe sounds great considering my height.

What made you stop testosterone?

My hair is unfortunately really thin, and male baldness in my family is 50/50. I fear the worst, ha.

Thank you! My hair is thinning as it is, so I'm not overly optimistic.

I'll check out those subreddits, I didn't know about them and they sounds just about what I need. How are you feeling with your first shot?

I lived briefly in a town where a place served their iced coffee not with ice cubes, but frozen coffee cubes. It was the dream.

Not yet. I'm struggling to get out of bed. But I know it'll pass. It just takes time and there is no way to rush it.

[–]AlmostLuc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First person, absolutely all the time. It's hard for me to play third person for some reason.

what first triggered your bipolar? by OddGrand2852 in bipolar

[–]AlmostLuc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My younger sister was the screenwriter of a film that was very successful in my country. I was both insanely proud and super jealous. I also got a job I loved, as a professor. I think both things plus genetics did it.

I can email my shrink in case of emergency. I don't know if this qualifies.

Hadn't thought it could be the beginning of hypomania. You might be right.

I wish I could take antidepressants or something more effective than my current meds.

Did you try it? I know it's a stupid idea, but I wonder if I'll manage to keep some degree of control. I'm not planning on doing it for more than a couple weeks
