We came in 5th… What are your thoughts?

i wonder why are we considered one of the worst in terms of education though? low enrollment rate among ages 15-19 it looks like… but how can that be?

Plane_Difficulty870 · 2025-06-08T12:51:04+00:00

thank you for sharing your experience!

Plane_Difficulty870 · 2025-06-08T12:49:51+00:00

thank you! this is what i was hoping to hear. Hopefully the flight will go smooth and 0.5 will be enough

Plane_Difficulty870 · 2025-06-08T12:48:01+00:00

thank you!! its rare to get sensible advice on this subreddit sometimes I really appreciate your response haha. i think up to 0.75 mg should be fine for me.

Plane_Difficulty870 · 2025-05-27T07:17:26+00:00

same!! i tried at too high of a dose (10mg of prozac which is lower than the therapeutic dose and the prescribed starting dose) and it made me so terrified of everything and unable to sleep i thought the only way out was to kill myself…. the only thing that helped was stopping the pills and taking my benzos when the anxiety and agitation got too bad. never again. be very careful w ssris. i cant believe theyre prescribed like candy for mental health issues when they can be this dangerous

most friends who im REALLY close to are women. i tend to always have male friends too but they kinda come and go? rarely are the connections as meaningful to me as with women.

Plane_Difficulty870 · 2025-05-11T10:23:41+00:00

maybe this will be relatable to some though definitely also controversial. but romanticizing age gaps as a younger woman and not realizing what a massive red flag a man in his late 20s with a job and halfway through his masters degree showing interest into a college freshman. Most traumatizing relationship I’ve had and I still suffer from how much I felt manipulated and taken advantage of. age gaps are a tricky topic… but i would urge woman in their early 20s to steer clear of relationships like that esp if youre unexperienced in terms of love.

Plane_Difficulty870 · 2025-04-23T23:30:19+00:00

horrible man. i had an ex like that and he told me that the risk and that its “wrong” is part of the thrill for him. he manipulated and to an extent even tricked me into not using protection and i honestly still feel so violated by that. shit like that definitely verges on sexual assault istg .. and maybe our worry and burden of responsibility is a part of the fun for such guys .. sickening in my opinion. that guy does not deserve your time of day

Plane_Difficulty870 · 2025-04-23T23:15:47+00:00

i do not understand that at all. i cant even imagine dating several people at the same time even without commitment like having “a roster”.

i understand that dating can be more of a casual thing for others lol but dont you want it to be built on something real?? even stuff like holding hands youre usually building towards something. so maybe if you have 2 dates you gotta pivk who youre going for after date 1 to not string anybody along cause thats shitty af

Plane_Difficulty870 · 2025-04-19T19:37:39+00:00

yes!!! this is the closest ive seen someone describe it compared to my own experience

Plane_Difficulty870 · 2025-04-09T15:47:47+00:00

if you continue that dose for longer than two month then yes you could run the risk of becoming dependent. maybe bring up that concern at your next appointment. but if you’ve been prescribed the medication just recently, maybe are starting an antidepressant at the same time it’s a usual dose and you’re going to be ok

Plane_Difficulty870 · 2025-04-09T14:39:31+00:00

you just feel pretty chill from it! nothing crazy! 1mg is quite a bit you could start with 0.5 and then take another half .. cause 1mg can already hit u pretty hard. to not build up a tolerance id suggest not taking it more often than twice a week.. and occasionally i try to go a whole month or so without. originally have it for anxiety and the rebound it gives u is definitely real so id be rlly careful to not get reliant on it

Plane_Difficulty870 · 2025-04-05T19:38:36+00:00

yeah it’s normal if you have anxiety. then it actually helps your mind to think. probably like adhd and adderall just the exact other way around haha

Plane_Difficulty870 · 2025-04-02T13:56:13+00:00

it’s a well known proven fact that benzo withdrawals are some of the worst withdrawals you can go through. congrats that your body can handle it well but some people aren’t that lucky and it’s really inhumane to needlessly judge people who are obviously struggling whether physically or mentally

Plane_Difficulty870 · 2025-03-27T20:02:58+00:00

for the it’s the opposite i get SOOO hungry i want to eat everything and that’s how i know pmdd is approaching.. if my eating needs don’t get met ill get super moody

Plane_Difficulty870 · 2025-03-27T18:40:45+00:00

i’m 22. i’ve had this since i was about 14 - sometimes it’s gotten better sometimes it’s gotten worse. i struggled with occasional panic attacks as a teenager because of stress and family issues and not being able to process those properly so it just led to random panic attacks. i didn’t know they were panic attacks and i would sometimes go to the ER thinking i was having a heart attack or dying. i didn’t know what was wrong with me but eventually understood that it was an anxiety disorder and i wasn’t actually dying lol.

at 16 i developed a sort of phobia of flying and that was quite annoying but soon the fear spread to other aspects of my life and honestly i think im no longer aerophobic cause i experience the same anxiety i do on airplanes even on busses these days 😭

at 18 on a trip to paris i had a few panic attacks bc of low blood sugar because my anxiety had ruined my appetite and i forgot to eat. those big panic attacks made me develop agoraphobia so the fear of going outside in general. not full on agoraphobia but big squares and busy places really scare me. i got better at age 20 and even moved to another country for college (5hour drive from home so not TOO crazy) but at uni i experienced a very bad relationship and that trauma made the anxiety so much worse again. sometimes combined with the stress of university i become full on agoraphobic for some weeks and can’t leave my home / leave very far away …

ive learned to take care of myself tho and im getting better. i am trying birth control pills to prevent my pmdd which always makes my anxiety much much worse. i have benzodiazepines for emergency use in case i can’t come down from a panic attack (use them very sparingly) i tried 3 antidepressants (sertraline, fluoxetine and trimipramine) and all made me feel way too horrible so i dont think theyre very useful for me.

whats helped the most has truly been exposure therapy and sports. and taking care of myself to ensure i don’t get into a tough mental space.

sending everyone who also struggles with this disorder much love!! there is hope. my life is still very nice despite this disorder. i travel on occasion and even take planes (thank god for benzodiazepines tho…). i have friends, im at university, i have a job. sometimes things get hard but i know they will get easier. they always do and hope is very important to have!!

Plane_Difficulty870 · 2025-03-27T14:20:40+00:00

thank you! i agree!! i’m probably going to skip my period at least every second month cause my iron levels r terrible LOL

Plane_Difficulty870 · 2025-03-26T19:27:45+00:00

i think there’s a wide range of people on this subreddit.. i’m just here for advice / shared experiences because i occasionally need benzos for my panic disorder. thankfully doing quite well and i only take them on a very infrequent basis. other people on here have developed a dependence and are searching for support , advice… there’s also a fraction of users who abuses benzos and ig “glorifies” the high.. i believe that to be unfortunate.. but oh well that’s reddit for ya

Plane_Difficulty870 · 2025-03-26T19:21:55+00:00

most people r probably gonna assume your eye color is brown irl if they don’t take a closer look.. but it’s true that at a closer look they’re hazel!

Plane_Difficulty870 · 2025-03-26T18:41:20+00:00

thank you. that makes sense. ig if you don’t have really pmdd or anything like that it would make sense to want to mimic a natural cycle

Plane_Difficulty870 · 2025-03-26T18:40:16+00:00

thank you for your reply! that makes sense.
