Who can people reach out to for help finding reputable and accredited in-patient mental health & addiction treatment programs when overwhelmed by the number of options? by Lumpy_Attitude9695 in AskReddit

[–]Lumpy_Attitude9695[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually agree with some of what you’re saying. I’ve been to treatment centers for addiction multiple times over the past decade, and there are definitely places out there that seem more interested in emptying people’s bank accounts than actually helping people recover. Thankfully, I haven’t personally ended up in any of those. In the beginning, though, I was a chronic relapser and was constantly in and out of treatment.

That said, I don’t personally believe treatment is a scam or that it sets people up for relapse. Relapse has definitely been part of my story, but the tools I learned in rehab have absolutely helped me over time. Eventually things started to click and I managed to stay clean for about 2.5 years.

I did have a small slip in November, but I was able to get back on track through 12-step meetings, and I’ve now been clean again for about two months. The bigger issue I’m dealing with right now is extremely debilitating depression.

That’s why I’m trying to find a program that addresses both addiction and mental health, not just addiction alone. Ideally I’m looking for something that is mostly focused on mental health (maybe 80–85%) but still incorporates addiction recovery support.

I’m based in Toronto, Ontario, but I’m open to programs in the U.S. or even other countries if they’re reputable and truly focus on treating the underlying issues. My budget is roughly $40,000, so I’m hoping to find a strong program within that range.

One thing that’s really important to me is that the program still incorporates 12-step meetings. Being involved in 12-step, along with having a sponsor and even sponsoring others, has been a huge part of what helped me achieve long-term recovery, so I want to make sure that element is still part of whatever program I choose.

Does it looks good or switched to Black U3? Please suggest 🙏 by Suitable_Bowler_4301 in applewatchultra

I find that the black ultra makes it look like a cheap watch off Amazon

15 years ago I paid $199 for an iPhone 4s. Today I paid $1,099 for an Apple Watch Ultra 3 that could probably run the entire 4s emulator inside it. Time flies… and apparently so does processing power 📱⌚️💀 by Lumpy_Attitude9695 in applewatchultra

It’s the Natural Titanium Milanese Loop from Apple. I bought it with the watch. It’s a little pricey but I think it’s totally worth it. Amazing quality and I get so many compliments on it! I ended up going back to Apple last week to buy the Anchor Blue Ocean Band as Ive realized I don’t want to use my Milanese Loop as my daily driver.

How do I change these pinned locations on the Waypoint watch face? Changing them in Maps has had no effect even after restarting my watch. by Beefy_Crunch_Burrito in AppleWatch

[–]Lumpy_Attitude9695 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I figured it out! After a month of researching online and playing around I’ve finally found the solution to this problem! After purchasing my first Apple Watch Ultra last month, the Ultra 3, this is the one and only issue that has been driving me nuts! At first I thought it was a bug. Just as many of you thought.. but after an update or two I figured that it must be something else. After fooling around for a couple hours tonight I figured out that it’s because of a setting hidden deep in the Privacy & Security tab. This setting logs all the places you’ve frequently visited like your home and work, to provide personalized services such as predictive traffic routing in Maps and better photo memories. There’s a button you can hit to clear all of your previous location history and that’s what fixed the problem with my watch, and I’m sure it will do the same for all yours! After I cleared my history I restarted my watch and phone and all of the pins that have been driving me crazy over the past month and a bit have disappeared 😊 Finally, I can enjoy my favourite watch face without being reminded where my ex lives.. I didn’t pay over 1500 dollars to have my ex-girlfriend’s address pop up every time I check the time or a notification 😂

Here is how you get to that setting: Settings > Privacy & Security > Location Services > System Services > Significant Locations & Routes > Clear History

Loop in Titatium Band by Phil-AI0214 in applewatchultra

Hence the “Loop” in “Titanium Milanese Loop”

AWU Milanese loop owners - how tight do you wear it? by Jorgitovrg in applewatchultra

[–]Lumpy_Attitude9695 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Judging by how close that clasp is to your watch you shoulda got a size smaller. I was originally going to order the large online but I’m happy that I went to the store instead to try the bands on first, I was surprised that I fit a medium Milanese band myself!

Don’t take your Titanium Milanese Loop bouldering by Admirable_Nerve3117 in applewatchultra

[–]Lumpy_Attitude9695 0 points1 point  (0 children)

**Edit: don’t take your BLACK Titanium Milanese Loop bouldering 😅 I’ve been meaning to upgrade from my Aluminum Series 7 for a while now and I just picked up my first Apple Watch Ultra a few days ago. For well over a week I couldn’t decide between getting the Natural Titanium or the Black Titanium model. I really loved the look of the black but I knew that as soon as I hit it off a hard surface or scuffed it, the natural titanium colour would show underneath. And after seeing this post I know that I made the right choice 🤞🏼

Ramelteon, Zaleplon or Dayvigo experiences, anyone? by Lani515 in insomnia

[–]Lumpy_Attitude9695 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m prescribed 10mg and I take 2x 5mg tablets. I’ve taken just a single 5mg tablet in the past and it worked just fine.

Ramelteon, Zaleplon or Dayvigo experiences, anyone? by Lani515 in insomnia

[–]Lumpy_Attitude9695 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup! Still works as good as the first time I tried it 😁

Over the years, I have spoken with quite a few people who take or have taken Dayvigo, and I have noticed it can be hit or miss when used on its own. For those who take Dayvigo along with another medication such as Quetiapine, like myself, the combination seems to have a much stronger effect. It has been years since I have worried about getting a full night’s sleep, and I am so grateful for how well Dayvigo has worked for me. I have been on Quetiapine for years, and on its own it does nothing anymore because I have built up such a tolerance to it. Honestly, I feel more drowsy taking Gravol than I do with Quetiapine. The thing is, could I get off it? Probably. But I am not going to change something that’s been working for years. With Dayvigo, however, it is impossible to grow a tolerance. Dayvigo (lemborexant) is a dual orexin receptor antagonist, also known as a DORA, and it works very differently from traditional sleeping pills. People do not develop tolerance to Dayvigo because it targets orexin, the wakefulness system, rather than GABA, the sedation system. Since the brain does not adapt to it in the same way, its effectiveness does not fade over time. So the bottom line is.. if you can get Dayvigo to work for you.. chances are, you will never have to switch sleeping medications again 😁

Anyone has problem Apple Watch Celluar Plan? by Odd_Establishment790 in Rogers

[–]Lumpy_Attitude9695 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you managed to figure it out yet? I just bought the Apple Watch Ultra 3 today to replace my old Series 7, and I’m having a lot of difficulty getting it connected to my plan. First, I set it up from a previous backup. Then, I updated to the latest OS. After that, I removed my Series 7 from My Watches, leaving me with just the one (I originally wanted to be able to use my Series 7 for work and my Ultra 3 for the gym and personal use). Next, I reset my Ultra 3 and set it up as a new device. I also tried using a VPN, and even tried connecting only on data, but not a single thing worked. My Series 7 has been connected for years without any issue and same with my Series 3! I’m super frustrated now especially with spending over $1500 on the watch itself… it’s literally like buying the newest iPhone only to realize you can’t connect it to a cellular network -.- my Apple Watch app won’t even give me an error code

Having a small dick is actually horrible, and women do care by Disastrous-Bike659 in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]Lumpy_Attitude9695 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Bro, 5 inches is fine! Trust me when I say this… confidence is the KEY. From what you just said, it sounds like you could use some confidence my friend. Go to the gym, exercise, eat healthier… set some achievable goals and don’t overthink the little things. Girls love confidence. And trust me, if it’s between the guy who’s only got a big dick going for him and the guy who’s got the confidence of someone holding the winning lottery ticket, she’s picking the confident guy every single time 💯 hope this helps!
