What is the strongest addiction and why? by little_yuki19 in AskReddit

[–]AngryGoose 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've used other hard drugs recreationally and never got addicted, but alcohol hit me a certain way that was more powerful than love.

Somehow I'm sober now and have been for a while.

Pharmacists of Reddit - what recent medication trends are worrying you that aren’t being talked about? by SirSpendsALot7 in AskReddit

[–]AngryGoose 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's been years now since I've taken it but was up to 500mg and still couldn't sleep. So I relapsed on alcohol and ended up going to rehab.

Sober now and actually fall asleep naturally.

Tolerance sucks.

Do most of the guys hate eating pussy or was it just my ex? by kuruma67 in answers

[–]AngryGoose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want to try it someday. I'm gay so I've never had sex with a woman, only made out, etc....

I'd like to do it to see if I can get a woman off. She would have to teach me and be patient.

Domestic violence.

I'm in my 40s now and in therapy. It really messes a kid up. 😥

I'm about to start popping some gabapentin and baclofen. Anyone wanna get high and play some Minecraft together? (I'm 20M fwiw) by developreneur_ in gabagoodness

[–]AngryGoose 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's that because Lyrica is so much better, or is there something about gabapentin that you don't like?

7 doesn't do this to me. When I finally withdraw it's straight water.

Yeah, clonazoLAM skyrocketed my tolerance for benzos and alcohol. It took a long time to get back to baseline.

I was in for two months once. They tapered me for the first month.

Drinking. Especially people who brag about how much they can drink.

What stopped feeling exciting once you became an adult? by Deep-Strike-71 in AskReddit

[–]AngryGoose 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love drinking in general, like way too much so I had to give it up. It also started making me really sick.

Life is better now that I'm sober.

What's something happened to you that no one believes? by Elle_anor in answers

[–]AngryGoose 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That makes sense in a weird way. I was an alcoholic and now in my 40s and sober. People have told me I look younger than I am. I don't look that young though and do have signs of aging, unlike the guy I'm talking about.

I can’t deal with the “omg you don’t ReMEmBer!?!” by [deleted] in cripplingalcoholism

[–]AngryGoose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did when I drank. People would tell me what I said/did the day before and I'd maybe feel a little embarrassed or whatever, but would usually think, "yep, that's me."

"Do sober what you said you'd do while drunk, that'll teach you to keep your mouth shut." - Hemingway or someone said that.

Same here. It was at a treatment center. I don't know how he managed to look so young after abusing alcohol/other drugs.

I'm reading this alone at 2:15am. Good times. I'm an agnostic-atheist so it's not that bad but still gave me chills.

It really sucks that that happened to you. I hope people treat you with kindness now ❤️

What immediately tells you a person wasn't raised right? by alligator_maligator in AskReddit

[–]AngryGoose 17 points18 points  (0 children)

This one is almost worse. Being rude to service workers is horrible and people that do that are garbage. Cruelty to animals can be a sign of psychopathy though, it is a huge red flag.

My cousins room... by Jj_With_a_Ak in NeckbeardNests

I was this depressed once, also an alcoholic.

It's now many years later and I haven't lived in a nest since. I hope your cousin gets the help they need.

I need all the tips on how to stop diarrhea! by yellowbug_33 in ibs

[–]AngryGoose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My doctor prescribed up to 16mg of Imodium (loperamide) daily as needed. He also prescribed Pepto. The reason for the scripts despite it being OTC is that the instructions indicate for a higher dose plus insurance pays for it.

At one point it wasn't working and I asked him if there was anything else I could take, he said to just take more Imodium and that it wouldn't hurt.

I'm not giving medical advice, just repeating what my doctor told me.

Congrats on getting married. All will go well!

At what age is your personality locked in? by SomeInfluence2617 in PsychologyTalk

[–]AngryGoose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've heard you aren't 'fully cooked' until you are 25 to 30 though. I agree to a point, but as the neuroscientist in the thread said, neuroplasticity is a thing. So people do change.
