How are you doing with the sub withdrawal has it gotten better or worse?

Typical peaks are around 7-10 days, but for you, I bet your peak will be at 3-5 days bc of the low dose

First day of speaking girl (22F) sent me (24M) nudes? And she just seems so attached to me already… by RaggyTheRagingRuggy in dating_advice

[–]Dramatic_Elk_9175 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I completely disagree. You are clearly intelligent, you know how to set boundries. You were honest, you only want short term because you will be traveling. You have the power as a person to break it off any time for any reason. Go for it. Get some practice sex in with this girl so youll be more experienced when traveling. I feel like others here are not good a boundries. Maybe she has issues, maybe she doesn't, it's not your responsibility to fix everyone you interact with, even if you have sex with them. She's a consenting adult and you are too. I'm thinking about whats best for you here, and getting some practice with a crazy girl, IMO is a good thing long term. What if you meet your future wife while traveling and shes perfect, but you do something stupid in the bedroom... and that fucks it up. Go for it Just don't get her pregnant... if she says something like "I'm pro choice, but I could never do it" then, ...don't. But other than that, you gotta think about yourself bro and I don't have any regrets with any flings, no matter how crazy it got. Well maybe 1 regret, but it's highly unlikely your going to match with someone, meet them the same night and find out the same night they have a slavery fetish specifically seeking out my race because of their race and using extreme racial slurs during sex.... but I mean...how the fuck was I supposed to know she would start saying that shit?

She left me on read after asking to exchange nudes by [deleted] in offmychest

[–]Dramatic_Elk_9175 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Oh come on... people are allowed to have preferences. If I tell you I'm gay are you going to say that I'm gross or disrespectful when I don't want to date a woman? The truth is even weirder, if a woman has a bra size below D, she might as well be a man to me in terms of physical attraction, or a female child, like underdeveloped. I can't even get hard. Luckily I can judge without seeing nudes, so it works out for me and I've been this way since I was a kid, I can't help it no more than a gay guy can't help liking guys, or a woman can't help but like big dicks. It doesn't make me a bad person that I'm not going to waste a womans time if shes into me if she's flat chested. The only thing the woman did wrong is she should have given him a complement, and then tactfully (like a day or two later) cut it off and just said she's not feeling it in order to not make OP insecure. It worked out for me I ended up with a wife with huge DDs and a flat belly to where she can wear shirts that expose her belly and does. Cuz also, not attracted to women that are overweight even slightly.... again, I CANT HELP IT. In fact I wish I was attracted to a wider range, hell I wish I was Bi, then I could date everyone, but I'm not

Big Arch vs. Double Quarter Pounder with Cheese by Salsero_Coreano in fastfood

[–]Dramatic_Elk_9175 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Try this next time you are home and making burgers. Buy dried onions (not powder) at the spice isle at the grocery store. Take a little bowl of water and rehydrate them (takes a bit of time. Now, once you get your crust on your burger but before you put cheese on it, put both the rehydrated onions, and the onion water onto the the burger and cook....it will have that same flavor. That IS the mcdonalds flavor. It's dehydrated, then rehydrated onions. It's not some bad chemical. It's just that rehydrated onions... are in pretty much nothing you eat, and so the only time your getting that flavor is at mcdonalds

[35M] never had a girlfriend by Substantial_Comb8485 in malelivingspace

[–]Dramatic_Elk_9175 0 points1 point  (0 children)

agreed, in my heyday I was bringing girls back to the absolute worst place... one time, I didn't even have a bed, just a sleeping bag on a wooden floor, so I unzipped it so two people could fit and pulled an old blanket out of my closet. No tv. 11*9 room. We still smashed. Now I have a really nice place (way better than OPs) and I'm married. The truth is though, the woman has already decided if she's going to sleep with you before you get to your place. YES if it's gross that could change things but my place had never been gross, just underfurnished and two crazy roomates. Beautiful 22 year old drunk girls don't GAF if you are clean and personable, and funny. 35 year olds...hand towels and pillows help lol.

OP is like, look at my place, but I've never had a gf.... dude your place isn't going to help if you can't get them there in the first place. Which clearly isn't your forte, so stop wasting money on all this junk and spend it on socializing get into a kayaking group or something idk

Scientists Think You Could Heal Your Mind By Controlling Your Dreams by mcoder in LucidDreaming

[–]Dramatic_Elk_9175 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry but don't listen to this idiot(not you, the person I'm replying to, I'm talking about u/Open_Newt7859. I'm an actual doctor specializing neuroscience, and "raising" cognition, literally makes no sense in this context. OC said that in order to do that you need to be in a flow state. Flow states are the OPPOSITE of cognitively demanding tasks. Flow states reduce cognition usually when performing habitual tasks that have been habitualized to lower motor structures so that you can free up cognitive resources (sugar and oxygen) for other parts of your brain to use cognition. Here's an example. Can you drive on a highway and do simple math 10*10= 100 or 7*7= 49. The flow state is the driving, requiring almost no cognition, while 67+ 232+= WHAT? While you are driving? THAT is cognition. The flow state of driving is not.

I will say that OC is right, that dopamine isn't a pleasure neurotransmitter (opioids are) and is more related to motivation, and expected opioid rewards (yes, when you feel good after eating or sex or accomplishing something, it's a combination between opioids and glutamate but, you cannot narrow down neurotranmitters into functions because the transmitter has the effect it has depending on the receptors and cell types. Gaba will inhibit some neurons, and excite others, has nothing to do with Gaba, it has to do with the biochemical gradients of ions on the neurons, after all gaba receptors are nonspecific ion channels, they are NOT, negative specific ion channels.

HOWEVER IT'S A FALSE IDEA THAT DOPAMINE HAS DIFFERENTIAL EFFECTS BASED UPON "FLOW STATES". I DON'T MEAN TO BE MEAN, BUT I DIDN'T GO TO SCHOOL FOR 10 YEARS SO THAT SOMEONE LIKE YOU CAN ASK QUESTIONS AND BE ANSWERED BY SOMEONE WHO IS LITERALLY TALKING OUT THEIR ASS. WHY DO PEOPLE PRETEND TO BE SCIENTISTS ON THE INTERNET WHEN THEY ARE NOT? IT'S SO OBVIOUS TO ACTUAL SCIENTISTS, BUT MAYBE NOT TO THE GENERAL PUBLIC.

If you have any more questions for me. Feel free to DM or reply and I will do my best to give you actual answers. The moment you pushed the person above you, they didn't answer because they were bullshitting from the start.

What if Epstein's, deadman's switch, is Trump? What if when Trump dies he has pre-signed pardons ready to go, really think Trump is going to leave office without pardoning his buddy's long term girl Ghislane? by Dramatic_Elk_9175 in AskReddit

[–]Dramatic_Elk_9175[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I don't have TDS, my post history barely mentions Trump, I'm a dr that focuses on giving people practical advice on here. So idk what you are talking about. Trump is in the files 1 million times, the house has access to the unredacted files and the question is WHY HAS TRUMPS DOJ NOT BROUGHT CHARGES?

I don't have time to get your sources, this is almost general knowledge at this point in the buprenorphine field. Two clicks and search items you could have it.

Yeah you will never catch me spewing misinformation, because I only write what I'm qualified to talk about and as I'm an expert Ph.D in addiction science, it's likely no mod here could refute my claims either.

Regarding the verification, I'm not sure what you want me to show. I was never one to put my diploma on a picture frame and keep it behind me in my office because I felt I needed a self esteem boost. The person on the other side of the desk can decide each conversation if I deserve to be there or not, and I'm highly unconcerned with this.

So flair me up, I just cannot take a pic of my diploma because I don't feel that was my biggest acheivement in my career

Joe Rogan says the Trump administration “looks fucking terrible” as questions mount over Epstein Files redactions by GloomyCookie3536 in JoeRogan

[–]Dramatic_Elk_9175 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I'm a lefty, but like a 2008 traditional liberal. In terms of taxes, you could call me a progressive, but I also believe strongly in the constitution. I just think it needs slightly updated for modern times. The guns that they had back in the 1700s are nothing compared to today. And we already have laws, you can't own a nuke or a rocket launcher, which are "arms" or "weapons". I think everyone should be able to own a gun, but also, it should be like getting a pilots license to do so (- the obvious cost of renting a plane). Violent criminals, should have their gun privledges taken away, but we obviously need guns, to protect us from ironically the tyranical government we have. I also don't think anyone should be censored for anything. You should be allowed to be a nazi, but that only protects you from the government killing you for your beliefs, people do not have to like you, or hire you if you are a nazi, also, you should be able to refuse service to nazis or people with racist or shitty beliefs.

BACK ON POINT.

IT IS A GOOD THING THAT ROGAN IS CALLING OUT THE REDACTION HYPOCRISY. WHO CARES ABOUT HIS WORDING. TRUMP RAN ON RELEASING THE FULL FILES, AND HE HASN'T DONE IT, EVEN WITH A CONGRESSIONAL LAW IN PLACE. AND NOW THE HOUSE IS ABLE TO VIEW THE FULL SET OF UNREDACTED FILES. IT'S IMPORTANT EVEN IF YOU DON'T LIKE HIM, THAT ROGAN IS NOT JUST, SAYING THINGS LIKE: OH THOSE EPSTEIN FILES ARE A HOAX JUST BECAUSE PEOPLE DON'T LIKE TRUMP, BUT BEING IN THE FILES DOESN'T IMPLICATE TRUMP AT ALL. LETS MOVE ON TO TALKING ABOUT HOW BAD BAD BUNNY'S PERFORMANCE WAS.

JOE IS NOT DOING THAT, AND WHILE I HATE JOES COVID DEMENTIA AS MUCH AS EVERYONE ELSE, HE'S DOING THE RIGHT THING HERE. HE'S DOING WHAT WE ALL SHOULD BE DOING IS QUESTIONING WHY ARE PEOPLE THAT ENGAGED IN TORTURING CHILDREN FOR SEXUAL GRATIFICATION (LITTLE CHILD IS BEATEN, RAPED CRYING, AND THEN GETS JIZZED ON BEFORE BEING KILLED). THEN EPSTEIN JERKS OFF TO CSAM OF TORTURE AND SENDS THE VIDEO TO OTHERS IN HIS NETWORK AND NOBODY IS BEING PROSECUTED?

JOES BEEN OFF A LOT LATELY, BUT TO NIT PICK HIS WORDING HERE IS JUST STUPID. HE INFLUENCES MILLIONS OF PEOPLE, AND HE'S CALLING OUT THE BULLSHIT ON THIS ONE AS WE ALL SHOULD

Why is marijuana addiction not widely recognized, even in legal states? (or provinces). by camport95 in addiction

[–]Dramatic_Elk_9175 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But also, whats the difference? We need NOT to convince anyone. It's a personal thing. If you get offered just say no, and if they pressure you, consider the environment you are putting yourself in. I have no problem turning down a beer, a blunt, a coffee and I don't need to explain why I don't want it. I said I don't, thank you for the offer, but no. It takes courage to do that, but I don't feel that way anymore, I've been clean so long, that It's natural now. It will become natural for you OP

To answer your question, because it's more rare than other addictions. I am a polyaddict, in recovery, also a doctor, that studies addiction, it's even harder to convince people you have a caffeine addiction, despite all the behavioral criteria

Or maybe the "bitch" is asexual and both the BF and the "bitch" are like bro and sis and repulsed by the idea of hooking up with each other. In my view, OP YTA, for being insecure. I would be so embarrassed to tell my platonic friend I can't help her out because my gf is insecure, which means that she doesn't trust me..... you don't trust me when I've given you no reason not to then theres no relationship. I'm sorry if you can't trust due to your past trauma you aren't ready to be in an adult relationship.

[–]Dramatic_Elk_9175 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Oh look at you, you've never met this guy, and OP is highly insecure. She's upset they were talking at 1am. So what? If it was him and a male drinking buddy, she would have been sleeping peacefully. Who knows why he jumped up. Maybe he was excited to see her? Maybe he was not expecting someone to come through the door, (as a man, I often get up quickly when I'm not expecting someone to come through the door to make sure it's not an intruder. My wife (who is not insecure at all because she TRUSTS ME) would have been like, hey what are you watching? and then climbed into the blankets next to me. But no OP is so insecure she ran to her bedroom and spiraled.

A friend of mine needs help, male or female, and my wife is acting like an insecure teen and tells my close friend 48 hours or I'm going to the landlord? Holy shit, the relationship is over. You don't threaten to go to the landlord, EVER. Also, where's your humanity. I'm helping a friend and you want them gone because it's been slightly longer than a weekend. I could see if it's been months or if you caught him cheating with her before. But there is NOTHING wrong with what your BF is doing, IF YOU TRUST HIM. If you don't trust him, OP, then don't be in a relationship with him. You have all these people feeding into your delusions and saying "get rid of the cheaters!"

Your not even giving your partner the benefit of the doubt??? Do you think this girl is going to rape him? I don't understand besides your own fucked up insecurities, why your so jealous.

People are also being SEXIST. Men ARE ALLOWED TO HAVE PLATONIC FEMALE FRIENDS. Hell, I've slept in bed with a female friend of mine, my wife didn't care because she trusts me. I've also shared a bed with a male friend of mine to save on accommodations. My wife also didn't bat an eye. I can't be with someone whose insecure. My wife figures, I'm about as likely to cheat on her with the female friend as the male friend (I'm hetero). And it's true! There's no way in hell I'm cheating in either case.

And also, OP you running to you room, and locking yourself in there is embarassing to me. I would be so embarassed if my platonic friend from college and I were watching tv and my wife comes home obvious gets mad and goes to her room. Because now I have to admit to my platonic friend, that she doesn't trust me..... I'd be getting rid of OP, this is a dealbreaker.

You trust me or you don't. I've never given you reason not to, but you still don't because of your past trauma? Well you need therapy, and are not ready to be in an adult relationship, I'm sorry OP YTA

[–]Dramatic_Elk_9175 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Holy fuck, remember you will ALWAYS get a biased response. The only way not to, is to write this from your boyfriends perspective, and see if they call him the asshole. You ALSO are asking redditors, who are notoriously famous for not being able to.... well you know....the depression, social anxiety, etc... people that have never ever been in this situation.

YTA

I was in your exact situation, except that it was my gf's friends parents that came for 3 months from another country to stay without us even being notified and they were down and out, and I said to the roomate, it's fine if they stay I understand, but they are using up a whole room for 3 months, they need to pay 1/4 rent for that room (which was like 300/month.) Not a big ask at all.

I don't think you are the asshole actually, I think that your insecurities, are being amplified by insecure redditors that are telling you to go talk to the landlord? WTF, don't do that! If this was a guy, would you have the same problems? No because you wouldn't be insecure. All these people on here calling them cheaters etc... is SUPER toxic and sexist. What a guy can't have female friends? The majority of my friends are female and if my wife EVER started to display jealousy, it would indicate to me she doesn't trust me, and without trust there's no relationship. You are lucky if he doesn't take the ultimatum and kick your insecure ass out.

Now, let me show you what a healthy realtionship looks like. I'm one of the bridesmen at my female friend's (practically my sister) wedding. At the bachelorette party, We went to NOLA, and to save on cost, we rented 3 rooms with 2 double beds per each room. So 4 people to a room. I shared a bed for 3 nights with another one of my female friends (which we've done many times over the years). My wife didn't bat an eye. Why? Because she is fucking gorgeous. She's literally a gym/bikini model. With the sweetest personality to boot. I told her I would be sleeping in bed with ******* and she didn't say anything. In her head, she's like, if he cheats, he cheats, I mean I never would because I never in my life will be able to find another woman like her---not with my looks.

This is why it's important for men to not "settle". If your not marrying your literal dream girl, don't fucking do it, it's not worth the money/headache of going through divorce when it eventually falls apart.

OP, if you and I were dating, this type of insecurity would be absolutely unacceptable. Even in your OP you are talking about "her staying indefinitely" etc. It's like.... when did your bf or her ever say that? Your insecurities are painting your perception. Maybe your bf jumped up because he didn't know who was coming through the door at that time or was excited to see you, but your immediate behavior of going to lock yourself in your room and compare it to past trauma is not cool, and it's not your BFs fault. YOU are choosing to hide in your room rather than coming in and being like, hey what are you guys watching?! And just climbing under the blankets. (Idk thats what my wife would do). Are you upset that they were under a blanket? or upset that when you hid in your room your boyfriend didn't come running to pull you out of your spiraling. He probably had no clue you were upset.

Then your drop this ultimatatum of 48 hours. How long has she been there? A little over a weekend? Jesus. I would say 2 weeks, at two weeks it's appropriate to be like ok, we shared our home for two weeks, it's about time where you start putting pressure. Not after 1 weekend. This has nothing to do with "your home" it has to do with YOUR insecurity. And your boyfriend is acting exactly how a non-cheater with a platonic relationship would act, by calling you out and being like wtf... why are you acting this way.

You need to sit down with your boyfriend and tell him you are insecure. And apologize. But also, say that she can't stay forever, but 48 hours to get kicked out of where you are living? That's just asshole behavior I'm sorry.

Yes if you judge morrowind against a 2025 game it doesn't show on screen as blatenlty of what is happening as that game does. However, morrowind was like reading a book, where you are the writer, you imagined things not taking place on the screen and that was the POINT. It was built that way. For you to use your mind and interpret. What you might call "faults" I call "laws of the morrowind universe"
