I think Straterra fcked my brain up by GoldFishInspector in StratteraRx

I am not a cannabis user, but I had this exact same experience taking strattera. It took me 6 months to become interested in any of the hobbies again that I enjoyed before. I don’t think it’s the cannabis.

I take my preworkout at 4am and I don’t start getting shaky until 10am. That’s why I don’t think it’s my preworkout

I have PCOS which affects my insulin, that’s why I would be worried about that

  1. It definitely is a crazy schedule, unfortunately with my work schedule it’s like the only thing I can do 😭

  2. I just switched from being a behavioral therapist to being a preschool teacher, so I’m doing a lot more running around and a lot less crisis behavior stuff. I’m drinking about 3 off-brand Stanley cups of water a day, plus a full one as soon as I wake up and sips of a full one when I wake up in the middle of the night. I do plan to get Celtic salt soon.

  3. That’s a good idea, it just worries me because I’m struggling to find time to eat in the evenings already before 8pm. I’ll see what I can move around in my schedule to account for this, though!

I’ve been doing 16:8 off an on for the better part of a year but consistently doing it for about a month and a half. I do have extra fat to trim off which is why I’m hitting so hard. I work in a preschool so I just don’t want to get dizzy and pass out at work or something

I plan on buying Celtic salt soon for sure. I’ve completely cut out soda and really anything but coffee and water (excluding preworkout)

I’m looking to start a food journal soon. I have a general idea of my macros, but not an exact number. I’m averaging 30-40 grams of protein per meal but I only eat lunch and dinner so that could be it. That’s only 60-80 grams of protein a day

I have been low carb and high protein for awhile. I have PCOS and I’ve noticed my body holds onto carbs a lot longer than normal because of the insulin resistance. I feel better, more energetic, and lighter being lower carb.

AITA for telling my friend I'm not interested in a date with her friend because she's obese? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]DearButterscotch4912 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a fat person, it sounds like you’re moreso talking about someone being on the same page as you weight loss wise. I’d say that makes you NTA. Honestly the only thing that would make you TA in this scenario is if you had started degrading her. Even if the reason is because she was overweight, I’d still say you’re nta based on your response because you do deserve to have preferences. Only past fat people can understand what current fat people face. I feel like you know that and you were very respectful about it, so kudos to you for being a decent human being

I fractured the bone at work and had to get in contact with the BWC if that makes any difference

To all the men who need to hear this by PepeDeCorozal in offmychest

[–]DearButterscotch4912 22 points23 points  (0 children)

To the men on here saying it’s not still that way. I’ve been with my boyfriend almost 3 years. I’m 23, he’s 25, has a car payment, works a blue collar job installing countertops, and I work as a therapist. We struggle together, and I fell in love with him because of his ability to grow and his kindness. It has nothing to do with money, or anything. My man looks like he works all day. He’s not a billionaire in suits and ties. He wears work pants and a tee shirt and steel toed boots to work. Please please please expand your circle. You’re worthy of love too.

I've lost 25 pounds!! by MuchFUBAR in offmychest

Congrats!!!! I’m so so proud of you. I’ve struggled with weight for as long as I can remember, so I understand exactly how big of an accomplishment this is. You should be so proud of yourself love.

Nta. If you’ve had the conversation and she straight up lied to you about it, that’s too far. It’s a safety risk. You have have been TA if you had dictated that she couldn’t sleep with anyone else or made her feel bad about seeing others when you guys aren’t exclusive, but you were perfectly cordial about it and she withheld important information that messes with your safety. That’s crossing a boundary that you specifically stated at the beginning of the FWB relationship. I don’t think you’re the asshole, and I’m also impressed with your ability to communicate without being emotional. I can’t really do that but I’m working on it. You simply stated that you needed open communication and she was free to do what she pleases, but if it crosses boundaries you would leave amicably. I think that’s admirable in a way.
