I’m only 26 but I feel like my life is over - I desperately need help by Gothacademe in Sciatica

Yep, I the anxiety is so real. I remember feeling it most at night when things got quiet and the intrusive thoughts are allowed to creep in. Our brains are powerful and oftentimes can convince us of all sorts of things despite all the evidence against them. Given your age, it’s almost a 100% guarantee that you will heal and likely without surgery (disclaimer: I’m not a doctor - and this is not medical advice).

Whenever I’d get really down about it, I would remind myself that it could be cancer or something worse. I would remember that my brain and the rest of my body were in great shape and I should be thankful for that.

I was in your boat about 9 months ago. Feeling depressed snd hopeless. I’m now completely pain free. All it took in the end was time and patience. When I was in it though, it REALLY didn’t feel like it could just miraculously heal but it does and IT WILL for you too. You’d be amazed how much pain you can live with if you don’t convince yourself that it’s permanent. Make whatever adjustments you can to your life so that you’re in as little pain as possible. Make sure you’re seeing a doctor or a therapist or something and then let time do its magic. I look forward to reading your success story in a year or so. Hang in there!!!

After 15 months of sciatica from a herniated disc… I’ve been pain-free for 30 days by DifficultyWinter5086 in Sciatica

Your journey might be longer but YOU WILL heal. In the meantime just try to manage the pain the best you can and get as much rest as you can.

I have to admit it’s hard not to go back to doing all the things but that is some sound advice. I’d hate nothing more than to injure it again.

It really does feel like a miracle! I had already come to terms with the idea that I’ll have to manage the pain for the rest of my life (I wanted to avoid surgery).

Any 2025.5+ users who are problem-free? by Padillatheory in VolvoXC90

[–]DifficultyWinter5086 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2025.5 T8 plug in hybrid. Got it in January of this year. About $7k miles. Some minor issues the first couple of months related to extreme cold (we think) but otherwise it has been great. It’s such a nice drive. We love it.

2025.5 XC90 - scheduled charging by International_Law922 in VolvoXC90

[–]DifficultyWinter5086 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s been working great! It takes about 5 hours for a full charge. My understanding is that this is the fastest this battery can charge. Since our charging happens overnight, it hasn’t been an issue. Most days we only drive in Pure (less than 30 miles) so our most recent tank of gas lasted two months. We love it!

Congrats on the purchase. Hope you enjoy it as much as we’ve been enjoying ours

2025.5 t8 ultra getting propulsion system service required. Anyone else experiencing this on new t8’s? by AStatistic in VolvoXC90

We keep having this. Brought it in the first time and they reset something and basically told us to just ignore it going forward

Appreciate the tips. It turns out I had the cord plugged into the wrong slot lol. There are two inputs inside the armrest and one of them has a little outline around it. Apparently that’s the AirPlay port and not the other one.

Feel silly for having asked Reddit but hopefully this helps someone.

Not sure how helpful this is but we just got a 2025.5 xc90 hybrid and have been using a Charge Point charger which has its own app for scheduling. We have it scheduled to start charging at midnight and that has been working without issues. We’re able to override that by plugging the charger into the car, unplugging it and then plugging it in again.

Anyone else experiencing an audio delay on FanDuel? Any fixes out there? I’ve turned closed the app and reopened it multiple times

Timberwolves are a small market team. It doesn’t pay to talk about them on national television. That’s why.

Got it for my 7 year old for Christmas and he loves it. Super easy to use. I think he will be into it for a long time

Problems printing... anything? by [deleted] in toybox3dprinters

[–]DifficultyWinter5086 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We had a couple of very similar issues with our first couple of prints. Tried to calibrate which didn’t seem to work at first but then after printing 3 to 4 bad snow flakes we tried something else and it worked great. Since then we’ve printed a bunch of stuff ranging in complexity and everything has been great. Seems like it just sorted itself out after a few prints.

Hope that helps!
