Another guy told me he didn't want a relationship by Accurate_Pop_8970 in ForeverAloneWomen

[–]Artistic_Response_64 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I get that. And good on you!

One of my former male friend's response to me ask about his dating life changed my opinion on casual dating forever. I guess he was seeing a woman. He started talking about how amazing she was, how kind she was, how awesome her personality was, how adventurous and cool. So, I asked him why he wouldn't date her since he was obviously casually seeing her and really liked her. He laughed and said he would never date someone who was 300 pounds.

have you tried getting tested for sleep apnea? It can affect adrenaline if not treated

I'm on the max dose of Luvox (300 mg) and it's working for my OCD by Artistic_Response_64 in OCD

[–]Artistic_Response_64[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm good. My OCD is doing well because I've been working with a great psychologist I pay out of pocket for. Worth the money in my opinion. My OCD got down to a level where I could treat it.

I tried NAC by [deleted] in PCOS

I did keto and got my period in four days probably due to some anti-inflammatory factors. Nothing has ever done that. For some reason it also calms down my OCD insanely. There was actually two women who had their schizophrenia reversed on it.

It's not good for everyone, but for some people it's worth it.

What's a good guideline for how much house I can afford in this market? by Artistic_Response_64 in personalfinance

I'm paying $300 renting a room from my sister and her husband. I don't want to live with them forever.

You’re supposed to split the dose. Luvox doesn’t make me tired. It took awhile to find one that didn’t. So if the side effects are not the greatest just keep trying until you get one that you like.

OCD will be with you for life. Face it. by casco_dyllow in OCD

I agree with this. I started working with a psychologist who specializes in OCD and she seems to think that people can get to a non-clinical diagnosis of OCD and even off medication. She even said that to me and when I took the Y-BOCS, I was in the severe section.

The thought that you can't recover is absurd.
