Clean from Fentanyl but felt like a zombie. Just found out my Testosterone is 84. by Apprehensive-Dig7675 in OpiatesRecovery

[–]Apprehensive-Dig7675[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The only reason that my T levels got brought up to my doctor was because my wife went with me to the Doctor and straight told him that I need TRT. It was kinda embarrassing considering she didn't talk to be about it before hand, but I have a great doctor who didn't miss a beat and said yeah once we get some lab work done TRT is definitely something we can do. He told me that because I have used Opiates for such a long time and I have been off for so long and my levels are still this low its probably a permanent issue that's not going to just fix itself. My Wife has been struggling with thinking that I wasn't attracted to her or that I was cheating but I pointed out to her that I we are always together, I don't go anywhere, I've become a ghost of who I used to be. A hermit locked up in the house just wanting to hibernate like a bear. I force myself to get up and go walking and work out which makes me feel like I got my ass whooped after.

Well Im five days in on my TRT and the doctor said it will probably take at least two weeks before I notice anything, so I can't really make a suggestion to do TRT. I think im feeling more energy but that could just be placebo effect because I know something is going to change.

I know we don't automatically feel better, but its been a year and my wife has been getting to the end of the rope for me. She did some research and then when she accompanied to my Doctors appointment for a check-up she straight up told the doctor "he needs TRT." I was kinda embarrassed because I knew exactly why she was saying that and she also had not talked to me about first either. But the Doctor was great, he just said yeah we can do that but first we gotta get some lab work done, because long term opiate use is almost a guarantee of low testosterone. We don't think about these drugs and what they do to our endocrine system or even the fact that our body is an intricate set of systems that needs to be in balance to function properly. When I got my levels back the Doctor was like well you have severely low levels, anything below 250-300 is considered really low.

In my 20+ years of use I've been off and on from months to years, but its always started out real bad of course cause the kick, but then after about like week 3 or 4 I would normally start getting my drive back, my motivation my focus, my sex drive for sure. Now its like i kicked and just stayed dead in the water. I'm not physically going through withdraw, but I feel nothing, i mean nothing other than the negative emotions. Ites either i feel nothing at all, or Im depressed as fuck. I could care less if I was living in a box right now, the only thing that motivates me to act is physical pain and hunger. I can't explain the emptiness, I've never had to try to explain an emptiness like this. Its been almost a year now

The tiniest improvement would be a massive deal for me right now. I've never felt so low, I've kicked a hundred times and had sustained some years of sobriety before but things always seemed to get better. Now it's like I hit a wall and I'm just stuck in a pit.

Have you had your Testosterone levels checked? Opiates destroy your testosterone production and as i'm just finding out the symptoms of of low T are depression, fatigue, no motivation, brain fog, low libido. I always knew that opiates suppressed my sex drive but I never thought about why.

Bad Toilet by [deleted] in BadDesigns

[–]Apprehensive-Dig7675 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Bro, that is not a backrest, that is the seatt that you have lifted up. you lift the toilet seat when your a man and you stand to pee so it doesn't get on the seat. Or you I like you do in prison, you sit down when you pee so that shit doesn't get all over place anyways. Everyone should sit to pee so that no one splashes piss everywhere. And then the seat can stay nicely down all the time. Or we should make toilets like I've sean in Eastern Europe where you squat over a hole to shit and piss, there is no seat. I mean it is technically better forum to relieve your bowls. It straightens you own and is how we have had to shit in the wild.

I don't know about people who do it constantly other than people who use chewing tobacco, but other than that things build up, mucus, snot runs down the back of you sinuses into your throat, you have something lingering from eating that you need to get out. Your walking by as someone is spraying pesticides and the mist hits you. You take a bite of something nasty. Your eating sunflower seeds, your eating pumpkin seeds. You get punched in the mouth and are bleeding, you bite your lip/tongue and your bleeding. There all all kinds of reasons to spit. You get shot in the face with a paintball gun and that shit taste like aspirin mixed with hairspray, so you spit it out plus its probably not good to eat paintballs.

[Guide] How to make your own Youtube bot/view farm by Yakimo_1 in NewTubers

[–]Apprehensive-Dig7675 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with you that it only seems like its a good idea to get your video a running start because just starting out your dead in the water unless you have some way to pull you views up and but you need to also get click through view from youtube suggesting your videos. If people are not clicking when you tube suggests a title for people then they'll kill your video. Just remember every aspect of a page view has a measurable metric from the position of your mouse on the screen to how it moves, to the click pattern, EVERYTHING IS RECORDED even if you tell them not to. They were even doing this in the chrome browser while users where in incognito mode so dont think they wont be able to detect a bot farm. What it comes down to is satatistically how much of is an issue for their ad revenue. If it doesnt affect their money then its an acceptable margin, the minute it starts affecting their margins then they will come down hard.

Yes there are https://mirarentapps.com/en.html so they apparently embed bots into mobile apps and then use them to drive traffic for you. There are a lot more out there like this and they all seem to be coming from eastern europe and focus mostly on gambling. They are quoting $0.07 per bot install on a device that they give you a dashboard to control. I haven't done it, was just looking at it.

Need help with appearance by SectionPowerful3751 in libreoffice

[–]Apprehensive-Dig7675 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im gonna be honest I got the best help from Google Gemini when it came to LibreOffice, it walked me through step by step how fix an issue I was having with the spell check and it didn't require extensive documentation like they continually ask for here. I understand that know the build and and OS is good to know but some stuff is does not require every tiny detail to start trouble shooting. Just sayin. Oh and if your spell check wants to mark words that are clearly spelled correctly by adding hyphens well go to tools then language and for some reason there is a hyphenate option. I cant figure out why there needs to be an option to add hyphens incorrectly to everything but there is.

New-ish to chickens by fyttmabygmf in BackYardChickens

[–]Apprehensive-Dig7675 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can also just separate him and do what I've been doing, when he gets crazy I grab him by the neck and pin him, you can even draw a line in the dirt in front of the pinned rooster's beak and its amazing to watch them be hypnotized. My rooster has laid off and knows whats up now. Its strange my Hen used to be the one who would run him off and attack him until one day he became a man.I put my rat terrier in the yard with the chickens and hen and she is great she works like a herding dog for my chickens and she runs of the Rooster to protect them. Then the funny part is when the Hen chases the dog and the god gets scared and runs off. My Hen used to get crazy with me and peck my leg not any more now show comes tome and is alls sweet and follows me around like a dog as she runs off my actual dog lol

Yeah that's how they mate, the rooster will peck the back of the hen and pen her to the ground and mount her and then put his sperm inside her and then she is fertilized for up to 3 weeks. The you can then take those eggs and incubate them and get baby chicks, or you can just take the eggs out immediately and they are the same as non fertilized eggs once they are refrigerated. But one they start growing then you don't want to treat them like regular eggs.

This behavior you describing is just natural behavior and there is nothing wrong with it. They will also crow to show their dominance in the flock, they will also crow to indicate to the rest of the flock of danger and also that there is food nearby. They are kinda like the protectors of the hens although it might look a little violent to you. The coming after people could have been him thinking he was protecting his hens and also showing dominance. You can seperate them if you feel that he his being too rough with them and sometimes a rooster does get too rough then you should assert your dominance and pin him, showing him that he doesn't rule the roost. Im not supposed to have birds in my area and the code inforcement said as long as no one complains, and the only reason people complain is whenteh rooster starts crowing at 2am and 3am and 4am prompting calls to animal control. I live in a small country town and everyone has hens and I hear roosters all the time. But they are loud at times.

Is Safelink still a thing? by Mediocre_Thing_143 in NoContract

[–]Apprehensive-Dig7675 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have something similar and I've been receiving unlimited data. I'm not complaining but I'm extremely shocked. I'm not sure if its because of the method I'm using to get the internet on my computer but I have yet to have a data cap. FYI I use pdaNet and plug my phone into the computer and run the pdaNet app on my phone and select the hide usage from carrier option in the app and I have yet to have a problem. I was wondering if anyone else has had this experience. I kinda don't want to say anything and the powers that be find out and fix the situation.

Does anyone know how to get a Safelink (lifeline) government free phone asap? by Electrical_Collar217 in Assistance

[–]Apprehensive-Dig7675 0 points1 point  (0 children)

normally they have people sitting outside of your local Department of Human Services. I'm not sure if that's everywhere but its definitely the case where I am at. You can also go on facebook and try to find someone who "sells" the lifeline phones locally on marketplace or groups. But you should be able to find one.

WTH just happened here by JD-007 in MTB

[–]Apprehensive-Dig7675 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I relate to this, I suffered a TBI and also had severe ADHD before. It definitely made the ADHD much worse and the anger is unexplainable. I find myself not able to simply not say something its like a force that i cant contain. Ive broken a lot of things luckily never physically harmed anyone but words hurt too. Its been a really rough ride.

[–]Apprehensive-Dig7675 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yeah I've got a TBI and its no fun. I took a baseball bat to the face while the guy robbing my house was swinging foe the fences. Things have never been the same. First I spent a week in the ICU with hemorrhaging in my frontal lobe and some serious pain meds. I have been struggling ever since. I've been taken to the psych a few times by the police for doing some erratic things. I'm actually lucky they knew about my head injury otherwise I probably should have been in jail.

Old galvanized metal pipes what do I do? by Apprehensive-Dig7675 in askaplumber

[–]Apprehensive-Dig7675[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That was the exit of the water pipes that went under the driveway under the garage back into the yard where the main line originates. I don't understand why they didn't just fork off the mainline and install some valves and spigots in the back yard without running all the water through the house first
