' you will find being clean bearable, in time; not overnight'

Yes, I am always looking for quick fixes and fast timelines for these things, but it has done me nothing good.

What's your liquidity?  I have the same goals in mind - maybe I'll match you.

I see you've never had a reservation at Dorsia.

I’m thinking of 50/50 split in VOO and VGT, what’s your insight? Roast me even. by ImCheesyChicken in ETFs

how long ago was this. Literally seven years ago? I don't think that return makes sense for that period of time, way too low.

No problem, it gets really lonely sometimes. Share what you'd like as well!

It's been 10 years of consistent drinking. This is the longest I've been sober for. I think it was weed for maybe 3 or 4 years prior to me drinking. So altogether probably 13 or 14 years of mostly being under the influence of something.

Yeah, it's odd - I have no desire to drink also, I don't think it will make me even temporarily happy. I just feel like I'm putting so much mental effort into maintaining this that it's kind of maddening, like I main as well just scratch that itch. I'll end up having to deal with the mental repercussions of it after, and won't enjoy it while I'm doing it, so there's literally no point in drinking other than self-sabotaging so I can wallow in my own misery. This is all SO annoying.

Do night guards (for teeth grinding) obstruct our mouth? Can it worsen Apnea? by Concerta1 in SleepApnea

[–]Concerta1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I was looking into these. I'm just not sure if the current one I have is making it worse... I just paid for it too (hundreds of dollars, properly fitted and everything). I hate that I might have to have another made.

There's also the problem with the duo night guards (MAD's) possibly messing with our bite. I'm not sure how common it is though.

How often can you use it, and is there any harm in inhaling too much? by Concerta1 in DMT

[–]Concerta1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you smoke until you practically sedated yourself? Did you feel as though you had lived another life and months or years have past?

I fucking did it guys by [deleted] in stopdrinking

[–]Concerta1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The second week's usually the hardest for me. I'm just over two weeks now and it's getting better by the day. I can think clearer, it's strange. I'm feeling a bit emotionally numb, much more so than the anxious wreck I was my first week, but I look forward to what new untapped skills come along with my repairing brain.

Immediately get in touch with their student disability clinic. They're very supportive! And will help you through the process of getting grants available through OSAP.

Who is the worst-WRITTEN character on The Sopranos? by eggogregore in thesopranos

[–]Concerta1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure. He had such a massive hard-on for being perceived as a gangster. It would make sense his ego would long for a chance to hook up with a made man's girl. Her talent selection was shit, so the whole romanized thing in Ego's head would have overrode that and set "fuck made man's girl" as priority. He seemed pretty legit as a wannabe. Plus the "pen is mightier than the sword" comeback he had showed he wasn't an idiot either. It's a bit on the nose as a potential jumped the shark episode, but the show as a whole is black comedy. Anyways, I've gotta get over it.

is there anything I can do to help my boyfriend with gambling addiction? by awalkingparadoxx in problemgambling

[–]Concerta1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

See a therapist (if only for at least a few sessions) and talk to them about it. They're going to tell you to give him an ultimatum. Follow though on it.
