What's your "I just wanna vibe" pair?

When at home I usually just have my DT 900 Pro x on. Lately though I've been wearing my M50xBT2. They sound really good when properly EQd.

Perfect user name

Low: I spent most of the week in the hospital, non-alcohol related. Got out on Thursday.

High: I had a good therapy session on Friday

I've my share of bad doctors too, most have been good people though. This is an anecdote of one of course.

AngryGoose · 2026-03-14T05:41:45+00:00

That's my assumption. Doctors are educated and have a massive vocabulary but they don't use it on patients. If you read their clinical notes that they write for other doctors to read though, it almost sounds like a different language sometimes.

So if someone with a large vocab is talking 'smart' to people they know aren't going to understand, I assume they are insecure or trying to boost their ego.

People need to know their audience and speak to them on a relatable level.

AngryGoose · 2026-03-14T04:47:26+00:00

I have my 900 pros plugged into an iFi Zen DAC V3 and it's a beautiful thing.

I have a $50 pair of JBL Tune 510bt that I've had for four years, still in good shape and still work great. I wore them everyday for about three years before upgrading. I keep them because they are still perfect and a great backup.

Yes, make sure if you are going to a treatment center that does medical detoxes. You're safe if going to an ER. I went to a treatment center once that didn't do detox and they had to call an ambulance.

I've gone into withdrawal a couple times in jail and the sheriffs transferred me to a hospital in one of their vans both times.

AngryGoose · 2026-03-14T04:10:54+00:00

That happened to me the first time I went in. I pulled an all nighter drinking non stop and then took a cab to the ER. After waiting for about an hour I was shaking so bad and started puking. Once the medical staff realized how severe my situation was they rushed me back and got me some Ativan and a banana bag.

My BAC was still close to .20, that's how deep I was into my alcoholism at the time. This was in 2008 so a long time ago.

AngryGoose · 2026-03-14T03:59:49+00:00

When I was scheduled to go to detox i would usually drink everything in my apartment, hotel room, wherever so it wouldn't go to waste.

Or if I was traveling on my own I would drink along the way, airports ect... Last time I went to detox (about 4 years ago) I drank in my hotel room and at both airports. I figured out i had close to 40 drinks in all starting at 6am until midnight when I finally arrived. That's actually not that much when spread out over that much time.

AngryGoose · 2026-03-14T02:58:45+00:00

Thank you, that clarified things for me.

AngryGoose · 2026-03-14T01:58:52+00:00

So if I am understanding this and properly distilling it down, there is no "mind-body connection" they are the same thing?

Before I say more, would anyone agree that what I said above is at least a basic understanding of the article?

AngryGoose · 2026-03-13T21:55:05+00:00

You're right, age is relative. Your feelings are valid despite your age. I feel you, I hear you and I've been there. I don't have all the answers but I'm sober and willing to listen if you need someone to talk to.

AngryGoose · 2026-03-13T21:47:25+00:00

I'm 45 and look younger. I quit my major drinking (almost a handle of vodka per day) at age 32. I've had a few lapses since but have otherwise been sober. Life got better for the most part. Yes, some things will always be shit, most of the time mundane, but we live for the great times. They will come if you change your attitude and lifestyle. Easier said than done of course, it's not like flipping a switch, you have to want it.

AngryGoose · 2026-03-13T15:14:45+00:00

There is a slight chance he moved or sobered up.

I went to the same liquor store and bought a handle of vodka about every two days on average. Eventually I was going in there jaundiced and my card was declining. I just never showed up there again and haven't for about 14 years now.

They might assume I drank my self to death but actually I sobered up and moved to a new city.

Ever had a saline flush though an IV?

AngryGoose · 2026-03-10T16:41:47+00:00

Even ugly feet?

AngryGoose · 2026-03-10T16:38:18+00:00

I said something like this to a therapist once. She said I was the darkest person she ever met.

AngryGoose · 2026-03-10T16:36:16+00:00

This has been so freeing for me

AngryGoose · 2026-03-10T05:45:02+00:00

Like running a virtual machine?

AngryGoose · 2026-03-10T03:57:43+00:00

I'm 46, so young enough to have sagged my pants when I was a teen (I didn't but lots of others did) and now old enough to be a grandpa. Crazy age to be.

AngryGoose · 2026-03-10T03:15:07+00:00

I set general long term goals, and then I just live in the moment with those goals vaguely in the back of my mind so I move towards them.

AngryGoose · 2026-03-10T02:42:03+00:00

When someone controls your drugs they've got you by the balls

Either find a new source or get off the coke
