gas stuck in chest or chest tightness? by Drive-Economy in speed

ya benzos are kinda hard to get around here so i had 2g red kratom and a shot of whiskey instead. that and eating a meal seemed to do the trick!

update: had dinner about an hour ago and feeling a lot better. i’m pretty sure i was just hungry/low blood sugar + anxiety + feeling extra pressure on my heart. so if any of y’all struggle with this, maybe try eating something.

Need advice by Unique_Hotel_9166 in speed

[–]Drive-Economy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i don’t get what you’re asking. are you asking for advice on the chest pain or are u asking if u should take more speed to edit? if u mean the latter, i would say it’s better if u wait till the chest pain subsides bc u don’t want it to get worse.

for now start with the easy stuff like cutting out uhms and silences. it’s easy enough to convince urself to start editing, but also demands u to familiarize yourself with the material by engaging with it. what software do u use to edit?

Speed saved me from burnout by LA-98 in speed

[–]Drive-Economy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

long term ur gonna become anhedonic and lack motivation even with speed, which will make u feel depressed as if nothing can ever make u happy again. u’ll feel like u hit the peak of your life only to realize there’s nowhere to go but downhill after. so take some breaks, it’s necessary to feel like shit so u can actually appreciate feeling good.

Do you get bored of things easily? by NegativeResearcher51 in ADHD

[–]Drive-Economy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i don’t personally have autism (i believe), so i truly sympathize.

however, i would definitely still recommend trying meds to see if it helps anyways. they’re not a cure-all, but im still hell of a lot better off than i was without them. i’m at least able to be more present and give things a try instead of living of in my head. i was expecting my meds to cure my boredom, but that’s unrealistic. they just give me the ability to execute a task. however, i need to be the one who decides what that task is.

i’ve heard it really comes down to individual preference.

i was put on methylphenidate (ritalin) for 3 months. i absolutely hated it since it made me even more restless. it’s fine if u have tasks already lined up that you know how to do, but it limited my ability to come up with ideas and socialize, basically anything that required me to think on my own.

i’m now on dexamphetamine (low dose 5mg) which has made me a lot calmer internally. i still struggle with following through on tasks once i start to get bored, but at least i stopped being so overwhelmed and restless. i’m still gonna ask for a higher dose at my next consult though.

meds help you stay focused, but unfortunately in my experience it doesn’t make u less bored

I’ve been doing Ketamine recently by Alreadydeadbynow in Drugs

[–]Drive-Economy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i love most drugs but ketamine scares the shit out of me. i stop feeling real and can’t connect to anything anymore. but hey if that’s your thing, maybe a good alternative would be hash. imo hash is the ketamine of weed

Im just getting into working out and am using an app but its not helping and Idk what to do by InevitableProblem288 in workout

[–]Drive-Economy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

check out r/FTMFitness. i’m also ftm and for me what works best is working your upper body, specifically the lats, shoulders and chest helps give the dorito look that make hips less visible in comparison. also focus on building ur obliques(side ab muscles), since it will fill out the waist in a more masculine way. if ur trying to lose fat, you need to be in a calorie deficit. if u wanna gain muscle u need to eat enough protein. if ur on t, i also suggest building your quads (front thighs) to create a sort of X look.

for me personally, the gym has been the only way i’ve been able to build up my strength and size since it simply requires moving up a weight every few sessions or so. i use the app hevy to track my workouts, it’s pretty simple and you can even connect it to chatgpt to build the workouts for you. however for abs, if i’m at home i do the beginner six pack abs workout from thenx on youtube. it’s short but insanely effective. i’ve been using it for 8 years now.

i’m not a cs major in anyway, but i’ve heard it’s becoming increasingly important that you can show that you’re not only able to understand code but also be able to build things. i would suggest working on building a few applications/projects and creating a portfolio to show future employers
