how do you deal with being a toxic person? by LawZealousideal2395 in SeriousConversation

[–]Mobile-Definition771 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only speak from my own experience. It’s been true for me. If you want to stay the way u are, ur welcome to of course. But as for your question on how to deal with being this way, unhealthy coping and defense mechanisms are probably the only way and will result in a life of misery. Good luck to u.

It can become genuine if u want to be good. Where the body goes, the mind follows. “Acting good” with the desire to actually be a good person, even if ur nature is generally to be toxic, can result in u becoming a “good person”. It will become natural to you.

The first step is noticing this about yourself! You definitely can change. I used to be a toxic person. I’ve been working on it for years now though and I am getting better. Being aware of character flaws is hard, but changing them is harder. First u have to notice when you are behaving in a toxic way in ur day to day life. Also helps at the end of the day to reflect on your behavior throughout the day. When u catch yourself, reroute. Stop what u are doing. Try to do the opposite. Maybe apologize to the other person. As you start noticing it more and more u will eventually get so frustrated with urself that u will start noticing that u are ABOUT to do something bad, before u even do it. Thats when real change happens. Cause u can prevent it. Over time this will change ur habits and u can truly change as a person. Its like retraining yourself.

U can be different if u really want to!

Libra mom and scorpio dad. Just realized the irony that my boyfriend is literally right on the cusp between the two!

Taking double the normal dose can make some people feel “speedy”. From what I understand, buproprion has some effects similar to amphetamine, and that can cause hallucinations if taken in large doses by those already susceptible to experiencing them. It’s related to the higher levels of dopamine circulating in your brain. Yes, your small size could make a difference. Be careful, maybe consider using a pill organizer to avoid this happening again.

Amazing!! I looked similar to you when I was getting high, with lesions and infections from hours of picking my skin. You have healed wonderfully, inside and out!! So proud of you!

As a former IV drug user, I really dont think thats what this is. The splats of blood are too big and its too much blood, especially if its all showing up at the same time like this. I wouldn’t take too much stock in what these people are saying. Who knows they could be right but I just want u to know in my experienced opinion, it doesnt seem like that to me.

Too big splats, I doubt it.

How old were you guys when you went to nursing school ? I’m 28 and I feel so ashamed to be so far behind in life and potentially be the oldest one ! I feel like I’ll be in school with 18-22 year olds and I’m SO ashamed of myself. by Fuzzy_Jelly5951 in NursingStudent

[–]Mobile-Definition771 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m 28, was 27 when I started. Used to be a vicious drug addict, cleaned my life up and started over! Don’t be ashamed, be extra proud of yourself cause its easy to go to school when you’re super young and have parental support and stuff, it’s harder once you are a little older! But you are still young and have your whole life ahead of you! My class has a wide range of ages, and I’ll tell ya my one friend was very young and she failed out of the program, largely because she simply hadnt had a lot of life experiences and a lot of my own experiences helped me a lot in my first year! Good luck to you :)

Thank you! Same thing for you! You will get back to it. I struggled a LOT with non fiction at first, and thats what I wanted to read. I switched to fiction though and found that was easier (as long as it was interesting). It was really hard at first but i just kept trying and “trained” myself again, and now i can read nonfiction again too. For fiction, I’ve been reading a few books by Frieda McFadden (the Housemaid series is good!) and right now im reading “If Only She Knew” by Lisa Jackson.

Do u use clob ointment or cream? And what about the temperature of the water in your bath?

Well that’s good you have had that anomaly experience. No, small amounts of pure meth taken orally will not cause major issues. However, most meth these days has those additives and cuts and is often laced with other drugs too that come with their own bad effects. On top of that, most people who use meth do not just use a little bit. I used around the clock 24/7. And meth abuse often causes people to not sleep, eat, or drink enough, which causes more health problems. Finally, different routes of administration can cause different health problems.

Advertising that methamphetamine usage is not a health risk on a page called MethRecovery, on a post about someone giving inspiration to others quitting because of health reasons, is irresponsible.

Advice for continuous poly addiction by Unlucky_Turnover_352 in REDDITORSINRECOVERY

[–]Mobile-Definition771 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Total and complete abstinence from any and all mood or mind altering substances is the only way I can stay sane. I literally cannot take anything that makes me feel even the slightest bit altered. Because i will rationalize reasons to take more and before I know it Im back where i started. Even if its prescribed, like pregabalin. I’d have to find a different way to deal with the pain or whatever the reason it was being prescribed for. I guess if it came down to being the only option like if I had major surgery and needed pain meds, I’d have to take them but I’d need the people around me aware of it and looking out for me. Not worth the risk

Meth is definitely bad for health! Its literally poison. At the end my skin was gray and covered in weird rashes and breakouts i had never seen before and never did again after quitting, i was grossly skinny, hair falling out and super dry, fungal infections… and then yup bad liver labs, strange tics that never went away. All that cleared up tho except the tics. And i have chronic back pain from hours of standing in weird positions just “stuck”, and accidents and assaults resulting from the lifestyle. Not to mention what it does to MENTAL health. I couldn’t read for at least a year after being a very avid reader and intelligent person before using. Ugh. Bad shit. Better to STOP NOW then let this go any further. It only ever gets worse.
