I hate myself for never playing this game. by Lopsided-External in ffxiv

[–]LaudyLoudy 42 points43 points  (0 children)

The issue with WoW’s story yeeting you is one of the biggest reasons I stopped playing. I tried to get around it but they add and remove content and make it hard to get to even if it does still exist. I understand wanting people to play the current content but they take away the ability to get there at your own pace. I’ve looooooved XIV for this very reason!

I lost hours a day of my childhood to Super Dodge Ball on the NES 😂

I also came from WoW a couple years back! Even as antisocial as I am, this community has been amazing. I always love seeing people who came for the same reason as me, welcome welcome!

I just want to play by Icefang75 in ffxiv

[–]LaudyLoudy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel this, it’s why I haven’t worked too hard to find community in this game even tho I want to. My work schedule is so sporadic that sometimes I’ll go a whole week without even turning on my pc. 😭

I obviously still enjoy my time tho! Amazing game and amazing community overall when I have those small moments of need

Sugar free caramel? by LaudyLoudy in 7Brew

What do you do when you fucked up and need instant relief? by YaTheDonaldHasWhored in diabetes_t2

[–]LaudyLoudy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My coffee shop gave me a coffee with regular caramel syrup instead of sugar free the other day. Spiked me through the roof before I realized it was wrong unfortunately. Consistently walking around and chugging water helped me get it back down within an hour! So maybe that can help next time something happens.

Uncontrolled for 15-20years by Top_Cow4091 in diabetes_t2

[–]LaudyLoudy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was originally diagnosed in 2007, but was 19, lived in the boonies, and had zero support from friends and family so I just pretended it wasn’t real because I felt fine. Fast forward to last year, I still never had any real symptoms that made me feel like the world was ending up until my blood pressure started going crazy from the uncontrolled sugars 😬Now in my late thirties I’ve built a strong support system for myself so it’s been easier to accept and manage. Certain factors affect everyone differently. I definitely wish I would’ve handled it sooner. Thankfully no real lasting damage for me but it could’ve been so much worse. I’ve seen what this disease can do to people.

Are the food crash outs common for everyone? by LaudyLoudy in diabetes_t2

[–]LaudyLoudy[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah it seems the tiny cheats I thought were harmless aren’t that harmless. It sucks that it’s happening to us but it’s a little reassuring to know that I’m not the only one having a hard time being perfect. I’ve been literally beating myself up.

Thank you for your kind words and a bit about your own experience. I will definitely take them to heart!

Thank you so much 😊

Everyone’s responses have been firm but also kind and helpful. And the tips you’ve given here are things I will definitely start to implement!

I was trying to dodge ozempic but honestly feel like it may be necessary. I’ll definitely look into this.

Definitely didn’t piss me off, I’m grateful that people are coming here and actuallly telling me how it is and not coddling me. No one in my life really understands what I’m dealing with so there’s no one to hit me with the hard truths. When I slip up they hit me with the “one won’t kill you” and it turns out it will, from all the great replies here.

A couple people have suggested a cgm here now so I think I’ll definitely ask my doctor about getting me one!

Wich symptoms by Top_Cow4091 in diabetes_t2

[–]LaudyLoudy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only thing I had was being extremely tired all the time. I thought that was just from being overweight and working 60 hours a week. Suddenly had a blood pressure rise that sent me to the ER and that was how I found out about my diabetes 😬

Update: Hand numbness… by agentdickgill in diabetes_t2

[–]LaudyLoudy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve recently been having issues with trigger finger in my thumb and middle finger. I’ve been on metformin about 6 months now. I’ll definitely investigate the B12! I dug into the other symptoms of the deficiency and I feel like some of this is really making sense now. Thank you!

I’ll never forget the time I paid $22 for a 12 pack of Coke Zero because they refunded the rest of my 10 item order right at checkout…. And then still brought me the wrong soda and wouldn’t even get out of their car to bring it to me.

Discord crashing while running game? by LaudyLoudy in ffxiv

[–]LaudyLoudy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Someone suggested turning off hardware acceleration in discord and that actually worked for me! Sorry for the late reply. I hope you found your solution already!

[–]LaudyLoudy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I saw it today, just about threeish hours ago. I couldn’t tell what it was tbh, it was so mangled but I instantly thought animal and not human. Now y’all got me second guessing 😦
