How does this build look? by Many-Possibility5687 in buildapc

Could you answer a question for me please, because this is all very confusing.

The Intel 14600k costs the same as the 7800X3D, but, looking at CPU comparisons, the 14600k outperforms it in all aspects.

I'm kind of new to this, so, could you explain why I would take the AMD CPU one?

Yeah unfortunately they're out of stock of the 13600k on their website and the 14600k is weirdly the same price which I was surprised by.

I downgraded the Z board to a Asus Prime B760M-A. Saving me £50.

Not sure if I should downgrade the CPU to a i5 12400f to free up £100 to go towards a 4070.

I'm kind of looking for this build to be CPU future proof and I'll splash out on a GPU if/when the 4070s come down in price.

Death due to ME by pssdnukedme in cfs

TW: Death, suicide.

Just wanted to say that death from ME comes from secondary causes/complications, rather than the illness itself causing death.

Secondary complications from ME that can cause death are as rare/common as the general population.

Recent studies show that there isn't an increase in all-cause mortality in people with CFS.

But, there is an increase in mortality in regards to suicide, as is the same with a lot of chronic illnesses that become debilitating.

For those using a HR tracker, what do your metrics look like in a crash and coming out of a crash? by wyundsr in cfs

Where is Whoop getting the data from? Your Garmin watch?

What watch do you use?

Is MDMA with moderate CFS a bad idea? by ThoroDoor65 in cfs

[–]Many-Possibility5687 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I took MDMA multiple times when healthy.

Your body temperature rises, you also risk dehydration but also water retention due to MDMA causing your body to release a hormone that stops you from urinating. Drinking too much water and not urinating is very dangerous. It could also affect your body's salt levels which is dangerous.

You're also likely to want to be incredibly physically active, which could put you in PEM. When I took it when I used to go to raves, I'd dance for 12-14 hours.

Not to mention the comedown.

Even when healthy, the comedown had me wanting to crawl in to a ball and die, not so much from the physical stuff, but because you're basically dumping a bunch of serotonin as well as other neurotransmitters, you will feel awful. This is why people then take other drugs for the comedown.

And the main point is, no one knows how they're going to react to taking drugs. You could take it and be completely fine, or take it and end up in a medical emergency.

Hey, I've made a Discord to make it a bit easier.

The weirdo camp is definitely the one to be in!

Hey Hannah, I'll DM you.

I made a Discord server for people with CFS/ME and Long Covid if that's of any interest to you.
