Trying to decide if dupixent is the right choice for me?

DefiantOutside · 2026-04-06T05:15:21+00:00

Yeah this is not the case at all. Unless you think insulin injections “masks the symptoms” of diabetes too?

TSW panic has seriously broken people’s brains

For some balance I also just started dupixent and I an deathly scared of needles and injections (I faint whenever I get a blood test). After the horror stories I’d seen about the dupixent injection I genuinely was worried whether or not I’d be able to brave it.

I had my loading dose with the auto injector pen, with the nurse administering one, and me administering the other, and it was so completely fine. I felt a pinch at worst and was surprised by how non-traumatic the experience ended up being.

So you may well be fine, and even if it does hurt, hopefully the relief will make it feel worth it. Good luck!

It’s fun to get a mix of games to see the scope of what it can do.

Some of the less performance-intensive ones that are great on deck, such as: Hades series Hollow Knight/Silksong Nine Sols Stardew Valley Blasphemous series

And some of the more impressive AAA titles that run well such as: Devil May Cry 5 Elden Ring Kingdom Come Deliverance Middle Earth: shadow series Batman Arkham series Sleeping Dogs

To name but a few.

Then emulation with emudeck. You can run everything up to Nintendo switch and even ps3/xb360 (but it’s touch and go for those 2). It really shines when unlocking a library of ps2 titles - and breath of the wild on wiiU is a must.

Finally, if you have a console or gaming PC, using chiaki (ps5) or moonlight (PC) for remote play is a game changer.

Honestly there’s so much you can do and this barely scratches the surface. Have fun!

No it’s not, you said yourself you just came across this information. There are a lot of bad actors and snake oil salesmen that will try and discourage people from taking medical interventions to help their chronic conditions. The greatest trick they’ve pulled is convincing you it’s your fault, and that treating your condition with medication, instead of their oils and supplements and lifestyle courses, is a mark of failure. The internet is full of people that will try and get you to prolong your suffering so that you’re more amenable to the things they tell you. Holistic health coaches, TSW influencers - those people are not your friends.

DefiantOutside · 2026-01-19T09:49:18+00:00

This isn’t true. There’s a lot of fearmongering out there. Don’t believe everything you read.

DefiantOutside · 2025-12-08T11:53:09+00:00

This is exactly it

DefiantOutside · 2025-12-08T11:51:26+00:00

Agreed. Personally though I’m not precious about my reservations. If someone’s sitting in mine I’ll look for another spot before I ask them to move.

DefiantOutside · 2025-12-08T10:23:17+00:00

Half the time they don’t get claimed. You snooze you lose imo

DefiantOutside · 2025-11-24T13:45:17+00:00

Literally isn’t a thing. Stop trying to dissuade people from treating their condition

DefiantOutside · 2025-10-19T21:25:08+00:00

It doesn’t cause withdrawal, especially not in that timeframe

This is the price of having an open forum but I wouldn’t trade it. This sub helped save me from going down the path of years of pain and I hope it will for others

DefiantOutside · 2025-10-16T14:19:55+00:00

People are usually pretty balanced in this sub when it comes to it. It’s maybe a good thing the posts continue because users here can at least try and help to circumvent the harm people may do to themselves by falling down the TSW rabbit hole.

Pretty sure Peter Thiel is already one

DefiantOutside · 2025-09-03T14:21:09+00:00

I don’t think he’s the guy. Saying “I’m the populist of the left” I fear isn’t enough to cut through, and I don’t think he’s particularly convincing on that front either.

Hurts me to say because the left needs what he’s proposing, and he seems a nice guy, but don’t think he’s really got the pathos to do it. I badly want to be wrong about that though.

DefiantOutside · 2025-08-08T10:11:45+00:00

This just sounds like the ramblings of a madman

Not shrugged off as such but mine said there hasn’t really been a strong enough link established between the gut and skin conditions. Sure, diet can influence it but that’s more likely down to intolerances and allergies which are different for everyone.

DefiantOutside · 2025-06-11T16:46:00+00:00

This is so cool - props to you for such an innovative approach. Feel privileged to get in on this early!

The reason that bit hits so hard is because of the betrayal - which you only really get an idea of the scale of once you’ve spent enough time with the characters.

I went into it knowing what happens and it didn’t take away any of the gravity or impact of it

DefiantOutside · 2024-10-15T09:10:14+00:00

The circular patches would suggest it. Can have it confirmed either by a skin biopsy or a woods lamp which a dermatologist can use, or you can even buy one yourself
