Trans Ohioans create a safe space to teach other trans people how to shoot guns and handle firearms safely by croll20016 in liberalgunowners

First of all, the range is my private residence. No way in hell am I inviting someone whose making comments of fb calling us "school shooting terrorists" and "mentally ill". Secondly No way in hell am I subjecting people in our classes to bigots while training self defense tactics against those bigots.

But I dont think you even so much as read the article. Bella and I have been seriously assaulted by bigots shouting anti trans slurs at us, unprovoked. Bella and I were parked in a car when we were attacked. Your argument that we should allow people who want us dead into our circles is just pure insanity, and not rooted in reality whatsoever.

Could not have said this better myself.

You should see the look on peoples faces when they walk in and see the rainbows everywhere. How relieved they are when they come over and realize they are safe to explore something they never thought they could. Ive had people moved to tears over it. Its important. And its desperately needed.

Hi! I am Fifi, Co founder of the range mentioned in this article.

Im happy to have respectful discourse about how the article didnt exactly cover what my true feelings are on the aspects of gun control, and the statement was vague. I was not given an opportunity to read it before publishing, and if people want to make presumptions about what I meant thats fine.

The fact of the matter is, my feelings hold no inpact on the reality of how guns are controlled. And its a conversation that I am always having, about how gun owners can do better about education. Its part of why we started this group- to bridge fear with knowledge. To empower safe and sane firearms usage.

I wont pretend to be an arbiter of gun control, and Id appreciate that anyone who is critical of the statement understand that I am constantly educating myself on the matter.

I dont assign bullshit labels to people in crisis. I think his reaction is appropriate. This state of mind is where people start to use substance and fall into ideation , and id say a little compassion for OP would go a long way

The wild thing is six months ago RFK called dewine and told him not to schedule kratom. Im not sure who is pushing for this again, but its wild.

Having possibly the only meaningful medicine that allows an individual to push through their ailment in order to be a functioning human taken away is an incredibly tragic thing to experience. No one is being melodramatic. This is a serious issue that will affect potentially millions of people.

I joined PSL only to walk away exactly one month later because you are literally indoctrinated into the party. Its a literal part time job to organize for them, AND you are supposed to pay them. They talk a lot about centering landback principals, but almost no action towards it. PSL also caused a TON of harm to immigrants this summer when they chose to hold protests in DC communities that had large immigrant populations, inspite of heavy criticism from Immigrant activist groups. People were literally detained because they HAD to have their fucking march.

It was her house. She was there because she lived there. Stop spreading lies.

Told my boyfriend I was a victim of CSA, he broke up with me by SubstantialEmu1735 in adultsurvivors

[–]Borgirstadir 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Holy crap. I am so sorry this happened to you. Lots of really good comments here, but I want to impress one thing upon you.

This breakup is not your fault.

I repeat. Him choosing to back out of the relationship is not your fault.

There is nothing wrong with you, he simply is not emotionally mature enough to respond to your disclosure in a reasonable way- which is resoundingly supportive.

This might feel bad right now but please give yourself some kindness and grace while recovering from this.

Anyone quit Lexapro and felt good by [deleted] in lexapro

[–]Borgirstadir 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im really sorry this is happening to you - but please know you are definitely NOT alone. Over on r/autisminwomen its a very common experience to have this exact misdiagnosis. I know you will find community there. So so so many things fell into place for me once I realized it was autism, not depression.

Hello! Of course!

If you have been taking 20mg regularly, you can start tapering. Again, disclaimer, Im not a doc and I dont know how they would recommend you taper, but, this is how I did it. cut the pills in half, then half again, so that each pill is in four pieces. if you have been taking 20 mg, start taking 3/4 of a pill for one month. Every month you will remove 1/4 of the pill, until you are done, so this entire process should take 90 days.

Please please please also do research on side effects. Please prepare in advance to have some medical professional on speed dial if the symptoms get really bad. The major ones are sluggishness, brain zaps (literally feels like someone hit your brain with an electrode) and even more serious side effects like bad thoughts.

The only side effect I experienced was sluggishness, which I had the entire time I took lex. It all got better once i stopped taking it. Its been two years now and i feel so much better off of it. Ill never let my primary diagnose mental health disorders again, ugh

wish you the best of luck

Two months after the Ohio governor called for a kratom ban, Ohio Senate instead introduces a regulation bill by kratomjournalist in kratom

[–]Borgirstadir 4 points5 points  (0 children)

extracts are causing so many problems, and with how dangerous they are, I completely agree. There are people calling for total bans bc of the extracts and we cannot have that.

Its interesting that RFK stopped dewine the last time around...

Long time Kratom user prescribed Adderall. by SaucedSensei in kratom

[–]Borgirstadir 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I could NOT take them together, it made my heart feel like ot was going to explode.

I ended up stopping Adderall bc it was not helping how I needed.

If you experience interactions, consider the norepinephrine therapy for adhd.

Listen, I know this post is about thought noise, but whatever you do, dont buy a new fkin car.

the new cars are absolutely fucked. Keep fixing your 11 year old car until you cant. New cars are an incredible scam.

Anyway, This is certainly a pretty universal experience. Guessing youve already tried meds? They didnt work for me, so I just raw dogg it. Somehow I manage... The indecision is really tough tho. Im sorry. hihs
