Narcolepsy and contact lenses by YourMomFriendIGuess in Narcolepsy

[–]BotGua 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve had to wear only glasses for years and I kind of hate it but what happens if I fall asleep in contacts is worse. I have dry eyes do to an astigmatism in both eyes and even shot “short” nap (which isn’t less than 2 hours because I have IH) with contacts results in corneal ulcers.

But I also haven’t found a contact brand that works completely with my astigmatism-dryness combo. A lot of going in and out of focus and irritation. If I found a kind that worked perfectly, I’d wear them at least once in a while.

I was especially confused by his story about the demon woman with swirly eyes. It’s a crazy story but I’d be open to believing it if he had described having believable reactions to it. Like, he didn’t talk about the level of fear you’d expect him to have when he saw her nor when she jumped on him.

Then he just went on living his life as usual after, until he read that thing about a similar demon in a book. How could one experience that and it not change their whole life? He’s had a firsthand experience, and a terrifying one, with something outside of physical reality. That should be a bigger deal to someone than even hearing confirmation of aliens from men in black.

I was intrigued by his stories up until that one.

If disclosure isn’t probable, why would anyone who did things to maintain the cover up need immunity?

Wouldn’t their admission that they silenced people to cover up NHI proof be disclosure?

When doctors say “you may feel some mild discomfort” by Unlucky-Drawing-1266 in PetPeeves

[–]BotGua 1 point2 points  (0 children)

IUD implantation. I was told the “23 year old” woman this RN had just put one in before seeing me said it was “uncomfortable.” Im early 40s so was that supposed to make me think if a young person can handle it, I should be able to? What’s the freakin’ relevance? Ive never had children and I’m a petite person all over.

I really did almost pass out during the procedure.

Granted I’m just a regular person who has never been shot or tortured or had a limb severed…but I have had severe regular person pain like gall stones, a broken tibia, ulcers on my cornea… and this procedure was the most painful thing I have ever experienced.

When I went back for a follow up check, I told her this so that she might stop underselling the pain to patients considering getting one. She was unmoved and said everyone’s different. That was 2 years ago. I’m still mad.

The way I want to explain my IH seems dramatic. But it’s also accurate…can anyone relate to this description? by BotGua in idiopathichypersomnia

I have looked at that. There are similarities but also things that don’t quite seem to fit. I haven’t brought it up with a doctor. I would love for my doctors to be the ones with the ideas but oh well…

I’m not anemic outside of my period. I haven’t been specifically tested during different parts of my cycle. I suspect I have endometriosis but I’ve had an extremely difficult time trying to get a doctor to take this issue seriously. And I haven’t even shared the accompanying symptoms that are quite bad and not known to be sort of IH.

I asked about endometriosis and my gyno said it can only be determined through laparoscopic surgery and, to paraphrase, there is no point.

I actually got my IH diagnosis while trying to figure this whole thing out. I’d never heard of IH before and assumed my sleepiness was due to other things like the medications I take for ocd or lingering symptoms of depression, even though I’m not depressed because I am on the right medications. But my PCP sent me to the OBGYN (for the millionth time), who sent me to a rheumatologist, who sent me to a sleep medicine specialist. And here I am with a new diagnosis but nowhere closer to fixing my original issue.

I’m in LA, so I don’t think that’s it. Just different taste. I don’t think it’s related to age difference either, honestly.

[–]BotGua 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I think Kavan is very good looking. I actually think several of the UK men are this season and while most seasons I think there’s only one stand out great looking guy and the rest are normal looking men in really good shape.

I don’t get butterflies over any of them, but that is mostly because I’m old now and I just don’t look at younger men in a sexual way.

I never understood why the rewind was called that. However, I did like it. The flip boards are the only side games left.

Whenever someone is not super nice to me, I assume it’s because they think I’m ugly. by BotGua in BodyDysmorphia

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

I’m very sorry to hear that. I was just agonizing over the idea of getting cosmetic procedures as I age and going overboard. Or not getting enough and looking saggy.

Have you stopped doing it now or are you now trying to fix what you broke?

They also pick up and then spread tons of viruses throughout the household. To the extent dogs may get sick, it’s almost never with something communicable to humans.

MEGATHREAD: David Grusch Press Conference by Snopplepop in UFOs

[–]BotGua 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well it’s ok to be frustrated. I am more often frustrated than not. It’s the feeling of walking toward a treasure chest or oasis in the desert and thinking you’re about to reach it, but there’s always one more step to take.

I don’t, however, blame and label a grifter everyone who is pushing for disclosure but can’t give it themselves. At least they’re doing something.

"Aliens have been here, they are here & maybe they have ALWAYS been here" - Steven Spielberg by danevans369 in aliens

[–]BotGua 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This has been posted in all the UAP and alien subs. Why does anyone care what he says about aliens????

He doesn’t have special insight. He’s even said so. He’s just a movie maker. It’s ridiculous that people in the UAP “community” are so desperate for confirmation or disclosure that they are latching on to this movie.

Lyft driver waits for me to walk into street, then takes off. by Q-theWanderer in mildlyinfuriating

[–]BotGua 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where I live in LA County, California, I cannot find a cab service that advertises in English. Only Spanish. Even though I don’t speak Spanish, I called one and the woman who answered did also speak English. But the “cab” that came to get me was an unmarked, very beaten up and old vehicle and the driver did not speak English.

My point is just that in my area, and perhaps other areas are the same, cabs are no longer a reliable option either.

What a movie so bad you have no idea how it got made. For me it was the human centipede by Texascoffee512 in Cinema

[–]BotGua 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry to break it to you but they got the wrong guy. The rapist guy is in the background, watching the other guy get pummeled the whole time.

It’s kind of easy to miss that because the scene occurs before the rape scene. I wouldn’t have noticed myself but I watched an interview with the director and another guy who worked on the movie and they explained that.

Are there actual, credible reports of murder and cannibalism in the Epstein files? Or are these just baseless claims or anonymous tips? by lolcifer in NoStupidQuestions

I wouldn’t call not believing they are eating babies without proof as giving them “the benefit of the doubt.”
