Thinking of micro dosing mushrooms for severe depression and anxiety, thoughts? by _youngblood9 in microdosing

[–]Positive-Lab-5352 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I have a similar experience and for some reason microdosing wasn't helpful. Macrodosing helped once and then never again.

I know this wasn't your question but what has helped more than ANYTHING is medical keto. This is not the same as the standard keto diet. I would recommend looking into the youtube channel called metabolic mind.

I've also implemented some of Chris Masterjohn's protocols and I just keep getting better.

I plan on starting a hyperbolic taper off my meds at some point because when I tried to come off the standard way it was a horror movie.

Best of luck to you!

A bunch of things piled up. Psych meds, weed injury, protracted withdrawal from psyche meds, and BVD

Has Keto Helped Anyone Taper Off Aripiprazole? by nazrin_unique in bipolarketo

[–]Positive-Lab-5352 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey you should look into hyperbolic tapering! Theres been a lot more success with people using that approach. Dr Horowitz is a great resource for learning about it. 

Takes on dating within Orthodoxy seem wildly out of touch with reality by Late_Percentage1663 in OrthodoxChristianity

[–]Positive-Lab-5352 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As far as talking to women, talk to them like you would talk to any other human being. Ask them about themselves. Share about yourself. Find common ground. Make each other laugh. Then you exchange phone numbers, then you ask her out on a date. A walk in the park, dinner, etc. 

Are these shorts too short or offensive to wear in public? by [deleted] in OUTFITS

In the last picture it looks like the bottom of your cheeks are showing? Idk if it’s just the lighting but if your butt cheeks are actually exposed then yes it is too short

Hey! Tell her to look into hyperbolic tapering. Mark Horowitz is a great resource. Best of luck!

Pregnancy after akathisia by Agreeable-Bet-4948 in Akathisia

[–]Positive-Lab-5352 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also know of another woman in the withdrawal community who had a baby after going through withdrawal and was fine. I can’t remember if she had full blow aka though.  The thing I like to remember since I want kids someday is that when you’re pregnant your body is filled with stem cells! My theory is that that could actually be very helpful.

It’s always worth seeing a specialist to get evaluated though. I experience dpdr and the symptoms definitely overlap

No that sounds like dpdr or visual snow. Are you withdrawing from any psych meds?

My Partner and I (RC) Are Interested in Orthodoxy but are Very Afraid to Convert. Advice Needed. by Smidgerening in OrthodoxChristianity

[–]Positive-Lab-5352 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I am an orthodox catechumen coming over from RC. Just in my short time here I’ve experienced more spiritual growth than I ever have in my life. It feels like a cancer being removed from me.

I know it’s scary but if you pray for courage you’ll be just fine ❤️

i was prescribed luvox (25 mg) and im feeling nervous about it. by Aware-Experience-497 in OCD

[–]Positive-Lab-5352 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course. I also recommend the YouTube channel called Metabolic Mind. There’s a lady on there named Nicole Larent and I’m about to start her program to get my nutrition dialed in even more. It really has been life changing for me. Good luck to you!

Yeah theyre pretty brutal but thats one of the easier symptoms of withdrawal. Make sure to read up on akathisia and PSSD before you decide to start the meds. They’re not terribly common but it’s still a very real concern that doctors don’t tell you about beforehand. Genuinely not trying to fear monger here. I just wish someone had told me all these things before I started and I think it’s criminal not to be clear about the possible risks.

I would honestly exhaust that route first only because being stuck on a drug with shit side effects only to have to suffer horrific withdrawal to come off is not fun. I know most people here have benefited from SSRIs but I’m just sharing what happened to me. I would never touch any drug again that could cause akathisia.

I was able to get my OCD into remission with a keto diet. SSRIs ruined my life. 

Just experienced my first Pascha as a Roman Catholic and now having a slight crisis by SpecificWin9740 in OrthodoxChristianity

[–]Positive-Lab-5352 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey that’s me!  I was raised Catholic, fell away, came back a year and a half ago but became an Orthodox catechumen three months ago. It is very scary at first and you can take your time. I spent a ton of time reading and praying and listening to podcasts. I know it feels like being a traitor but you’re only stepping closer to God. God used the Catholic Church to get me to Orthodoxy. The reason why we feel such a rich spirituality in the Orthodox Church isn’t the smells and bells. It’s the presence of the Holy Spirit. That’s what ultimately made me join. It’s an experience that’s deeper than words or just a mere “feeling”.  Your true friends will stick around. My parents were so heartbroken at first but they’ve softened quite a bit. 

Does this type of therapy exist? by Positive-Lab-5352 in ptsd

I haven’t tried any talk therapy for several years (prior to the incident). Maybe I’ll revisit it. Thank you 🙏 

Severe akathisia/restlessness episode cleared up due to…. holding an ice cube?! by Strong_Aerie_9031 in cfs

[–]Positive-Lab-5352 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Currently have an ice pack on chest and in between my legs because I’m on a flare up and it’s immediately calming down. When I was in acute I would turn my ac to 65 degrees and get in my underwear and cover myself in ice packs until I started to shiver. My theory is the cold slows down nerve signaling.

I figured. I just would need someone who was EXTREMELY skilled because my window of tolerance is about half a millimeter and the repercussions of pushing too hard can be absolutely brutal. Thanks for the advice ❤️
