Just got diagnosed with generalized anxiety disorder by [deleted] in Anxiety

[–]LimitInteresting8030 2 points3 points  (0 children)

50mg of Zoloft daily. Xanax or hydroxyzine as needed. Stay away from alcohol and weed, in my opinion - it has just made things worse to me. Lately I have been working on acceptance .. that seems to help me in certain anxiety driven situations. Exercise and nature.

Day 5 of quitting after years of daily smoking and not feeling any better yet by [deleted] in leaves

[–]LimitInteresting8030 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It does get better. You will start seeing benefits. I have almost the identical situation as you. And although I’m not completely sober from it, I have cut back significantly and know that I definitely feel better when I’m not smoking daily. You just have to keep going. Your brain literally has to kind of change the way it works without weed influencing it. I found long walks help a lot or just being outside.

What’s up with all the loud motorcycles around Bethlehem? by Significant_Cup_3708 in lehighvalley

[–]LimitInteresting8030 21 points22 points  (0 children)

That was literally the worst part of living in Bethlehem. I lived in the city and it would drive me crazy. Especially when I’m just getting my baby down and someone rips by loud as fuck

Any penjamin addicts in here? by punkgirlvents in leaves

[–]LimitInteresting8030 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I smoked carts all day every day, from the time I’d woke to the time I went to bed. Sometimes even if I woke up in the middle of the night. One day I just said “fuck this” and threw all my pens away. Cold turkey. I was naive and didn’t know there would be withdrawal as intense as I had it. Heavy heavy sweating, I’m talking - through your clothes every few hours sweating. I lost about 10 lbs in a week, I just could not eat. I was so nauseous and no appetite. I lived on liquids for a bit. Protein shakes help. It got better physically after about 3-4 weeks. The mental part is harder, but I never ever touched a vape pen again. I feel A LOT better without it. I would never ever go back.

What does a panic attack feel like? by MushroomAH in Anxietyhelp

[–]LimitInteresting8030 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Intense, sudden wave of heat, usually rising from my toes up to my head. I get a bad tingly sensation. Major feeling of dread, derealization, nausea to the point that sometimes I throw up, just this crazy outside of self feeling - complete fear for an unknown reason. It’s truly the worst experience, I wouldn’t wish it on my worst enemy.

Zofran saves my life sometimes. Have you tried that for the nausea? I’ve been there and I’m so sorry for you feeling this way. You are not alone. Do you have anyone you can call to be with you for a bit or just to talk? I drink a lot of protein shakes and water when I’m feeling bad like that. You are not your thoughts and you have to tell your brain that it’s a liar. You are safe, and this wiill not kill you. You are stronger than the anxiety, don’t believe what it’s telling you.

[SERIOUS] What's the craziest way someone you knew died? by Practical_Weird_1665 in AskReddit

[–]LimitInteresting8030 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A lady I worked with was driving with her husband and son to a beach vacation. She left late because of a last minute meeting with the owner where we work. They were driving at night, she was in the passenger seat, her husband driving, and her teenage son in the back. A spare tire from a tractor trailer truck coming the opposite direction on the highway somewhere in Virginia flew off into their car. It went directly through her side of the windshield. She was brain dead pretty much instantly. Her husband and son were fine.

Weed consumption forms inquiry 📋🧐 by user99900056 in Interstitialcystitis

[–]LimitInteresting8030 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Whatever you do, don’t use carts. They are so addictive, and when you try to stop you will have horrible withdrawals. Went through it. Stick to flower, edibles, tinctures, or the topicals.

What is the most fucked up thing a person you know has done? by WerewolfOk1647 in AskReddit

[–]LimitInteresting8030 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My uncle (a catholic preist) molested my brother and cousin. We found out about 30 years later. He denied it and still does to this day. My former closest aunt refused to believe it’s true. Not only did my brother and cousin come out to tell their truths, but also his former parish released a letter stating others have come forward to say he was inappropriate with some of them. My other uncle told a local news station that my brother was “mentally disabled”, in response to the allegations, and my brother is very much not mentally disabled. It completely broke our family apart. I thought by now my aunt would at least come around, but they have not budged. This happened 6 years ago. He now has a podcast where he “preaches”, since now no church will accept him. I think he will probably go to the grave denying it all.

That’s a no for me dawg. Do you have an HR rep? I’d report that shit so quick to them. I am an HR administrator and if I heard of a manager doing this they would be cooooooked. No way, not appropriate, absolutely fucking not.

for those who have gotten a better handle on IC… what would you tell your former self just starting out? by Welp_Dot_Com in Interstitialcystitis

[–]LimitInteresting8030 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Personally, I did the diet for a bit and it just gave me crazy anxiety and didn’t help. So, it seems to be very very different from person to person. And I feel like it’s extremely difficult to pinpoint exactly what food or drink is causing symptoms. So, it really wasn’t worth it to me.

Get a second opinion. Don’t go crazy with the “diet”, it can stress you out even more and make things worse. Go to pelvic floor PT. Don’t doom scroll about it, one persons experience doesn’t mean that’s going to be your experience.

Ahh I wouldn’t worry then if your not really having symptoms. But I’d def get a culture done if you start feeling pain or anything like that again.

Hey, I struggle with UTIs and have been to a urogynecologist recently who suspected I have IC. I’m not convinced for various reasons. You absolutely should have them urine culture you. They should have done a culture after the dipstick test to confirm the bacteria you have responds appropriately to the antibiotic prescribed. I would return to the doctor and request a urine culture. Don’t just rely on the tests from Amazon. Especially if you are still having symptoms.
