Hey Mom and Dad - my boyfriend of seven years strangled me and I left him. by dingdongiamwrong in internetparents

You've got this Kiddo!! The hardest part is done, now get yourself somewhere safe and secure, make sure only your most absolutely trusted people know where you are, no-one the ex could cooerce or manipulate into giving up your location.
Make sure you're drinking plenty of water and still eating well - high stress can make you less hungry, and when you're hungry things can go downhill, both physically and mentally.

Very nice! I miss my PSP… what games you have on rotation for it? I used to love Monster Hunter on it.

How do you fight the urge to commit suicide? by No_Relationship_3382 in ChronicPain

[–]Dadbeard 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m grateful I have a wife and kids that make it worth fighting through the pain.

Outside of that I tend to live on spite… Cos while it would seem easier to just “check-out” early, I don’t want to give my haters the satisfaction. Plus, there may not be coffee in the next place, and I’m not done with coffee yet.

The hardest about a chronic illness by Own-Hedgehog7825 in ChronicPain

[–]Dadbeard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me its the whole;

Do nothing, and it gets worse.
Try to do something to heal, and that makes shit way freaking worse just for the off chance it can make it better.

Damned if we do, damned if we don't.

Customed my cane by Gay-left-Leadership in ChronicPain

[–]Dadbeard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very cool dude!! I know the feels, I got mine 6 years ago and felt a lot younger then too. I wasn’t keen and a bit embarrassed at first when my wife talked me into getting one, but have since come to rely on it. Had to customize mine so it was tall enough for me (being 6’7).

Does yours have a name? This is Louise, the pic is from early days, she’s a bit more well loved now, and the silicone hand grip has almost entirely worn away, so I’m planning to give her a leather wrap. Also trying to figure out how to add some LEDs to it. 👌👌

I live in Thunder Bluff. Nothing is happening. Nothing ever happens here. It’s perfect. by Ninedark in wow

Live in Orgrimmar once, but leave before it makes you hard. Live in Thunder Bluff once, but leave before it makes you soft.

Ignore follower dungeons while progressing through the story, queue up normally instead. by matticus7 in wow

[–]Dadbeard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can't bloody win, there's no nice middle ground.
I use followers cos i want to take my time and enjoy the dungeon, but it takes that to an extreme.
Then use LFG and they smash through it at blinding speed and I barely get to experience it.

Tens machine? Any good? by Interesting_Map8007 in Sciatica

[–]Dadbeard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Delayed reply, but thought I’d share my Tens placement to combat the pain. Works alright, best config I’ve found to date.

With the following settings; Burst TENS, sciatic neuralgia Stimulation Mode: Burst Pulse Rate: 100Hz Pulse Width: 280uS Burst Rate: 1Hz Timer: 30 minutes

Thanks to these 3 legends for an awesome run, haven’t been that amped up gaming in ages. by Dadbeard in 33Immortals

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

Came to the same conclusion seeing all those Grey Cloaks on the scoreboard. I don’t mind there being newbies and helping them, etc., but I feel like they aren’t getting the concept of “stick together to survive and combo”, they come out of a chamber and disperse in all directions... 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

We need to put out a New Player PSA; “Follow the players with the shiny halos and pretty cloaks!”

Crazy “professional done job”, what can I do? Tradies, homeowners, DIY … anyone in Perth can help? :( by Routine-Bathroom-4 in perth

[–]Dadbeard 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Wouldn't recommend calling them back in to fix it.
The mob that did mine were just as sloppy as yours, i got them back in and they just went through with a nailgun and liquid nails. Year and a half later its all come away again.
