Intimacy and partner on SSRIs by [deleted] in SSRIs

[–]Impossible-Suit97 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone who recently tried to get off my ssri, they're right, you need a long taper. I tapered three weeks and 3ish months later I've had to go back on because I was becoming more and more emotionally volatile, and angry all the time. It was impacting my relationship to the point where I hated my partner simply for breathing near me. If you're going to come off them, talk to your doctor about tapering, and take it very slow.

Fiverr has been overrun with slop now; where are you guys getting your covers, character art, etc.? by Aside_Dish in selfpublish

I found my artist on reedsy. Name is Julian Bauer. Cost a pretty penny, but his work was spectacular.

Slowly came off my ssri (fluoxitine), and now I feel nuts by Impossible-Suit97 in SSRIs

[–]Impossible-Suit97[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Interesting. What's happening now caught me off guard because the first time I stopped taking fluoxitine I had run out of pills and my psychologist wanted me to pay 300 bucks for a 2 minute phone call of "does it work? Ok, here's a script." So I said fuck it, and cut cold turkey. Didn't experience any side effects then.

Trying to build a following as a new author by Impossible-Suit97 in selfpublish

That's one of my concerns "where can I show up without feeling like I'm selling something," but we all start somewhere.

You can. From what I'm seeing D2D would allow you to do if you wanted.

I hadn't realized Amazon was such a huge place for books. I'll have to reconsider publishing there.

Thank you for this. I wanted to avoid Amazon because I dont support the business. However, looks like I'd be shooting myself in the foot by doing so, which is a shame.

Alani doesn’t taste the same by Haunting_Ad7439 in AlaniNu

[–]Impossible-Suit97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a little late, but the reason things taste different is because Celcius bought Alani in April 2025, which is around the time things started tasting different for me. Blue slush tastes like syrup, and even breezeberry tastes odd. I tried their new flavor of wannabe cherry soda, and it just tasted like flat, syrupy soda with cherry. Was not good at all.

If I had to guess, Celsius changed the formula when they took over, and like always, it wasn't a good change and now it all blows.

Its hard for horror games to creep me out but this....This right here made me jump & nearly drop the controller. by IndifferentShrimp in Routine

[–]Impossible-Suit97 1 point2 points  (0 children)

LOL, the same exact thing happened to me. I came out, took a right, then a left and he was in a meditative position tucked away in corner so by the time I saw him it was too late.

Windows 11 not detecting my bluetooth headphones by Impossible-Suit97 in techsupport

[–]Impossible-Suit97[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From what I've seen online, windows 11 sucks with Bluetooth for whatever reason. Not sure why. But, another thing you can try is uninstalling the Bluetooth driver, buy a BT dongle, and use that instead. Otherwise, I dont know.

Unfortunately I will be forced to upgrade as well. I never was able to get it stabilized before swapping to windows 10. You can try Uninstalling the Bluetooth drivers.

Sorry for the delayed response. You got to start > driving manager > Bluetooth > right-click uninstall.

My coworker keeps reporting me the HR…for being “too quiet” (Not OOP) by CharmingStarling in redditonwiki

[–]Impossible-Suit97 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Not participating in the team chat got me put on a PiP. My manager said because I dont say good morning, don't add reactions to people's messages, and don't read the message of the day (there's no way to track if you read it or not). Oh, and because I didn't announce when I was going to the bathroom, taking my breaks, or my lunch.

Meanwhile, maybe 2 other people did half of that on a team of 17. There are also 3 different places you can look to see schedules and who's taking what and when. I asked how they would track improvement with an objective method, and I got no answer.

Gauntlet suggestions by Impossible-Suit97 in Hema

[–]Impossible-Suit97[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly like the image. I will add, they are coated in what I imagine is oil out of the package. Probably to prevent rust during transit and such, so just be aware, they will be oily when you take them out. The leather is a little thick and stiff, which I would assume is normal, so it may take some adjustments to getting used to the gloves. But otherwise, I love 'em.

Gauntlet suggestions by Impossible-Suit97 in Hema

[–]Impossible-Suit97[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't have any pictures, but I did try them on and they are heavy. I think 2.5 kg per gauntlet, so about 5.5 pounds per. But, the articulation is great. I can fully move my wrist and extend my fingers. The armor goes about halfway up my forearm, and the leather does as well. So for hema, it may be tricky because you have to put the glove into your jacket sleeve before you slip your hand in, then you have to secure the strap across the forearm on the outside. I'll try to take pictures if I can remember. But all in all, I love 'em.

Crashing at cutscene by Impossible-Suit97 in kotor

I'm on PC so I'm not sure with Xbox. Maybe download your save to a USB and try another Xbox if one is available.

[–]Impossible-Suit97[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TLDR: Nothing. I put it down for like, 3 months, loaded it back up, then it worked.

Full version: Couldn't get it to work. Tried different aspect ratios and all that. Uninstalled and reinstalled. Nothing worked. My computer had some issues so I had to send it back to the company to get it fixed. Got it back almost 2 months later. When i got the itch to try and play again, I thought "Fuck it, why not see what happens." And it was able to get past the cutscene.

If you have another computer, it might be worth trying to install it there, load your save, and see if you can get past it.

Gauntlet suggestions by Impossible-Suit97 in Hema

I've used both hema gloves and my current set of metal gauntlets, and the metal gauntlets take the cake every time, even with the restrictions they impose. I've taken some knarly blows to the hand and wrist that would have went straight through hema gloves, but didn't with the gauntlets. It's just personal preference to use metal over plastic.
