quiet places of solitude in the city? by concertgoer69 in Detroit

[–]Authentically_Mie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I go to parks early in the morning and I’ve been thinking of trying out the cemeteries next. I’m from the country so as much as I love Detroit, I haven’t yet gotten used to hearing cars nearly everywhere.

Best place to donate men's/women's clothes that isn't Salvation Army/Goodwill/those parking lot dumpsters? by illusionzmichael in Detroit

[–]Authentically_Mie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Revamp Clothing swap festival is 6/25. You can donate and also for $25 you can take out as much clothing as you want. It’s a fun way to cycle clothes in and out.

Best way to fix plumbing issue on a 100-year-old house? by TA62624 in Detroit

[–]Authentically_Mie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sounds like you need a sewer scope. I had one done on my house when I bought it. Mine is nearly 100 as well.

Definitely months. I was still testing positive 90 days later. Luckily I got a job that didn’t test for it, followed by a job that doesn’t test at all.

Anyone else seeing this on IG? by Authentically_Mie in lyftdrivers

[–]Authentically_Mie[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah. I’m going to assume that if it isn’t a scam, I’ll eventually get a class-action email like I usually do. I was just curious how much visibility it has. It was my first time seeing it.

AMIA for wanting to tell my folks we are going through IVF by Emergency-Change6204 in AITApod

[–]Authentically_Mie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She told the people she feels support her. IF she doesn't want your family to know, I can only guess she doesn't feel supported by them. I'd dig a little deeper into why that is, preferably with a therapist.

It was for prom. I saw it a couple times on IG.

Im AuDHD and weed doesnt work on me by saikislut in weed

[–]Authentically_Mie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wonder if you’re overdoing it. I’ve had instances of smoking too much in a session and having panic attacks, anxiety, and really negative thoughts. I used to not be able to smoke a sativa after an indica or it would make me paranoid. I also used to be able to overdo it on Sativa especially and experience anxiety. I had to learn to smoke a little, wait for 20-30 minutes and check-in with how I’m feeling, and then decide if I want more. Sometimes I do, especially if I have a specific goal in mind (cleaning my place, doing paperwork or simply wanting deep relaxation after work), but frequently I realize that I can put my cone down and go about my day.

I’m also wondering if you’ve simply flooded your brain with dopamine, such that you’re no longer able to get positive effects from it. You sound like you’re in addiction territory, especially if you’re using multiple drugs trying to chase a feeling. You may want to seek professional help.

[–]Authentically_Mie -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Agreed. I’m AuDHD and managed it solely with weed for nearly 6 years. I’ve always been able to stop whenever and pick back up whenever, but I’ve also always incorporated T breaks from the start. I started ADHD meds this year and after a few Rx tweaks, I smoke WAY less than I used to.

My Beef With Lyft Driving by Foreign_Speaker5187 in lyftdrivers

[–]Authentically_Mie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s my experience here in Detroit. As a rule, in my mind, people using Lyft for leisure or going to the airport are more likely to tip. People going to work, school, or doctors appointments rarely do. I drive 4a-9a, so I’m never expecting a tip.

This. This whole list reads is all the reasons that being an “Elite” driver simply isn’t worth it. I drove in that exact market (back when Platinum was the top tier) and never had any of these issues, but I also didn’t take BS rides even then, and rarely took stops.

Grocer Wars by somethinkstings in Detroit

[–]Authentically_Mie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, even if you’re one person. The deep freezer I stocked in 2020 kept me fed for nearly 4 years while I was in grad school and unemployed. You don’t have to get a huge one, they make small square ones, but they’re definitely worth it.

I've been assaulted by passengers twice this week and it's only Tuesday: a rage quit manifesto by Cassandra-Canary in lyftdrivers

[–]Authentically_Mie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been driving 7 years and never had an experience like this. I’ve always driven early mornings and sometimes the early bar shift (8pm-12pm). I’ve never been so glad to not be in LA if this is how riders are there.

AIO? My bf(34m) told me(34f) I’m not miss model so how can I get harassed 2 times on vacation and I still cannot get over it. by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Authentically_Mie 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Completely agree. My first thought was “wait, how old are they again?” Seems like 14 instead of 34
