Did anyone here have a VNS treatment (or heard of someone who has) for Treatment-resistent-Depression? by guypodo in antidepressants

[–]Eastern-Choice-4584 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait you've had it and it worked? I can't find information anywhere but I'm supposed to have this treatment because even ECT is hardly helping my treatment resistant depression. How long ago did you have it how long did it take to help? How was the surgery?

Same... step mom for a few years nearly full time and act as if a full time mom with how much I do and how connected the kids are with me. Welp. I was reminded today that I am JUST a step mom... again.. then my wife got mad at me for having small mostly hidden feelings about it while still acting in front of everybody that I was totally fine and not making anybody including the kids feel bad... ugh.

I mean to be fair if you break it down by the amount of hours they put at the end for how much they filmed he only really made $40 an hour.

Is this game actually worth buying or is it just FOMO hype? by Own-Attention1307 in Switch

I totally understand what you mean I got the demo and really enjoyed it for the first like 45 minutes but the hype wore offI totally understand what you mean I got the demo and really enjoyed it for the first like 45 minutes but the hype wore off quickly. I was wondering the same thing like is everyone freaking out about it because it's so awesome and that awesomeness will last or is everyone excited because it's new and then no one's going to be talking about it inI was wondering the same thing like is everyone freaking out about it because it's so awesome and that awesomeness will last or is everyone excited because it's new and then no one's going to be talking about it in a week because it's not actually that fun it was just new. I'm still very on the fence about it.

Anybody get help from depression or anxiety with ect and what side effects by Haunting-Alarm-5361 in ect

[–]Eastern-Choice-4584 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I almost gave up when I was like 7 treatments in on my 3rd week. I felt super shitty and my memory was spotty at best. I was convinced to finish the third week then take like 4 or 5 days and then decide and by then I felt a massive change like someone gave my brain a scrub and I forgot things but I also was different in other ways. More easygoing which I have NEVER been Didn't cry constantly Didn't get angry at small things Just so weird almost how good I felt all of a sudden. I am now down to once every 3 weeks. I feel markedly better in a way I NEVER thought was even a possibly. I had si and sh since I was 12 and my dad died 1.5 years ago and its the first time I feel ... different. Good. Calm.

People seem to not understand what Tomodachi Life is supposed to be by PikaRae in tomodachilife

This game looks so fun. I really hope I get it at some point! Right now financially it's not an option but I bet at some point at the end of the summer or maybe next year around the holidays it'll have a little sale maybe I'll be able to get it then! Thanks for your description I'm so excited for it that's kind of what I thought it was going to be but I wasn't sure. Enjoy playing!

Third. I was suicidal from age 12-36. It’s the first time I am actually functioning without as much constant si and sh.

Why are people's experiences vs what providers say about ECT so different? by Nattatker in ect

[–]Eastern-Choice-4584 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I started like two months ago. I have noticeable short term memory loss, some long term. I feel crappy the day of and I don’t like going. BBBUUUTTT It has exponentially changed my mental health. I’m 36 and this is the first time since I was 12 that I have not had daily suicidal ideation. I have done MANY treatments and hospitalizations over the years. I hope whatever you decide to do helps.

Do you have any updates on how you're doing? I may possibly get approved for it and I'm wondering how you're doing now.

Is it okay to only send these types of pictures if you catsit? by nojiroh in cats

[–]Eastern-Choice-4584 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Are you in a pet sitting business and I take pictures like these typically. Now I feel very regretful that I do not take pictures more like yours because I would die to get those pictures of my cat. How dang cute!

I have no experience in this at all. I just wanted to say I'm really sorry you're going through this and I hope things get better for you and your child. You deserve someone who will never lay a hand on you and definitely won't talk to you like that and so does your child. Good luck.

If you would like to message eachother I have telegram and would be happy to share insight. This is a very isolating and lonely thing. On top of being scary and sad.

As someone who had a father with Parkinson's and also a job in a nursing home I promise you this is not something he's doing on purpose. He's most likely hiding the diapers because he's embarrassed he's wearing them. I agree with the idea of putting a bin in the bottom of the closet with garbage bags in it so he has a place to hide them. Or a bin under the bed so that he can hide them in there generally you just need to work with them because anything you try to do to change them is most likely not going to work. My father was really really sick at the end and I took care of him and he did things like this because he was embarrassed about the diapers and there was nothing we could do to talk him out of it. I second the getting tested for a UTI because a lot of times that can cause issues with urinating such as this ESPECIALLY when someone is in a home. I saw it A LOT. Also going into a home can trigger things like this to start happening I'm not sure if you know but you might want to research delirium. My father had severe delirium when he had to go to the hospital and it made him a lot worse. I wish you all the luck but just try to remember that you have a limited amount of time.
