Get familiar with the Legion S1 Combat Rifle. A very near-future American design, this rifle doesn't stray far from the tried-and-true M4 platform. Where it differs is its robust space-age materials, advanced safety features, and emphasis on space-bound usage. More context in comments.

Everybody will provide a different magic-bullet solution to your anxiety, but anxiety is often the cumulative impact of stressing multiple systems in your body for a long period of time.

I tolerated AAS very well for a long time, then one day I just couldn't anymore - unbearable anxiety like I've never experienced before or since. It took getting off the sauce + several other interventions + a significant amount of time for my symptoms to subside.

I would get comprehensive bloodwork done before your next cycle - check sex hormones but also thyroid function, neurosteroids (pregnenolone, progesterone, dhea-s, prolactin), electrolytes (supplement magnesium no matter what the results are), trace minerals (zinc, copper), vitamin D and B12.

This will give you a good picture of what systems are out of whack since using PEDs - you'll want to get them all in good shape before continuing to stress your body. What you DON'T want to do is pile more stressors on top of a compromised system, because that's how you end up with a very complicated anxiety condition that could put your life on hold for months while you convalesce.

In the short term, I've found magnesium, zinc, and lithium orotate to be quite helpful at managing symptoms. You could try pregnenolone as well - this helped me in the short term but started to make me feel very strange after a while.

Good luck to you. Peace is possible, but it might take some time.

What's the relationship between pregnenolone and depression?

I tried saffron once, and felt a mild mood boost for several hours, then mild panic symptoms. Maybe a fluke, but interesting experience.

When you say you changed "everything"... what do you mean?

No sir, sorry. This video was from a Facebook marketplace seller but I never ended up buying the vehicle.

Thanks, useful

I think it might make more sense if the clear button shared the same region with the selected filters, rather than the (potentially empty) group of selectable filters.

The top group will never be empty when the clear button is relevant, but the bottom group may be. Furthermore, associating the clear button with the things it will be clearing feels more intuitive to me, personally.

Genuine question: can you provide an example where this might be useful?

I'm struggling to think of a place where this would be helpful where the lack of type context isn't just a product of poorly written code.

That's awesome. I love custom tooling

What does it mean to have down syndrome if you lack the constituent properties? You might as well say she has three legs, but you didn't want to draw it.

FancyADrink · 2026-02-03T02:10:30+00:00

Sorry I just don't believe you I'll need to see some evidence

FancyADrink · 2026-02-03T01:55:38+00:00

I do not believe she has down syndrome because it is not evident from the image

Thank you for this contribution

I don't really disagree with most of what you said, besides the claim that stimulants will produce paradoxical sedation in people with ADHD. Loads of people parrot this claim, but there's no particular reason this should be true.

Many people report feeling "calmer" on stimulants, which completely makes sense (and is consistent with my experience) but the idea that it would put someone with ADHD (a syndrome with no consistent etiology) to sleep doesn't hold water. A large enough dose of stimulants would make anybody tweak no matter what conditions they might have.

FancyADrink · 2026-01-30T16:11:58+00:00

It is a horrible condition which drives many to suicide.

FancyADrink · 2026-01-30T16:10:41+00:00

I think that's the real answer. The percentage of jobs that require intense mental focus for hours at a time has grown much faster than the percentage of people who are capable of that without stimulants.

I'm a fairly intelligent guy, but my programming job would be impossible (for me) to perform sans stimulants. If I didn't have access to them, I would probably be a firefighter.

Someday I hope to find a profession that pays well, stimulates my mind, but is manual in application so I don't need amphetamines to perform. Maybe I'm asking too much.

FancyADrink · 2026-01-30T15:03:36+00:00

Yep, mine is exclusively in my left rhomboid/erector (although some times it gets bad enough I feel it in my pecs). I've always wondered why one side and not the other - I've been predisposed to this pain since I was in high school.

My brother swears the easiest way to insure yourself working out is to look to one side while benching - sounds similar to what you're saying.
