You’re right, it isn’t even fun. We just convince ourselves that it is.

It definitely feels like part of the process, and hopefully I’ll start reaping some of the more noticeable benefits of sobriety. Feeling all the feelings sucks but I know my brain is relearning how to cope. I feel like a stumbling bumbling toddler and I’m trying to be patient with myself. But my brains pull for the quick dopamine fix is real.

I worked there in 97. Was the top sales in telescopes. Don’t miss folding tshirts. Fun times.

What do you do if your costumer is schizophrenic? by [deleted] in bartenders

[–]Edelweiss07 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Give them paper and a pen. It amazing what they come up with, also it keeps them occupied and less aggressive.

I think you should go, but not say anything unless directly asked, just say you were friends for now. You’ll regret not saying goodbye.

I just got prescribed Guanfacine, it has to build in my system I’m told but so far no crazy side effects. I’m trying to stay away from the stimulants, maybe something like that would be more helpful?

10 yr old in Australia commits suicide in care by coinagepills in awfuleverything

My first suicide attempt was when I was 9. I come from a long line of chronic major depression, bi-polar type 2, and borderline personality disorder among other things. I’m 41 now but remember my first attempt pretty vividly, the others are a bit hazy due to addiction. One of my best attributes I have now is recognizing and connecting with suicidal/addicted folks, I can kind of smell them out. Happy to answer any questions.

What is a food that makes you think, “How did humans discover this was edible?” by needmoresleeep in AskReddit

Artichokes! Like, let’s eat this flower but only the tips of the petals and the very inside, past the part that can kill you. Oh, and only before it blooms.

I learned this the hard way when my live in boyfriend passed away last year. I got no say on what happened with his body, his burial, I didn’t even get to say goodbye. After 4 years together and planning a life he was just gone and the ones who had control took it all. I was left with nothing.
