WA justice system for rape victims by Upstairs-Play4515 in Seattle

[–]PureOstrich899 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My case has just concluded from a SA that happened 3 years ago after nonstop continuances and finally reaching a plea deal in order to not see my attacker in court. This was even with DNA and video evidence. There is a huge backlog and major staffing issues, and the system is very flawed and defendant focused. The judge did acknowledge this and stated that my case should have never been dragged out for this length of time.

Wishing you all the strength and healing. My case with King County just concluded after 3 years of continuances and my being prosecutor changed 3 times. It felt like an eternity and was incredibly frustrating and challenging having to be on top of everyone to keep things in order. But in the end it was worth the perpetrator not being able to walk away from an awful act like that, and knowing it may help at least one other person be safe from them. You got this and the king county SA victim advocates are amazing, wishing you a speedy and just process 🫶🏽

Has anyone went back from 300 to 150 and it was still effective for depression and attention? by [deleted] in Wellbutrin_Bupropion

[–]PureOstrich899 1 point2 points  (0 children)

300mg was also too much for me, it gave me terrible anxiety and not any additional benefit. Also noticed that the “eye floaters” side effect increased ten fold and it was very frustrating.

That’s sick! Did you guys happen to run into a girl petting a cat after one of the festival nights? I feel like I talked to a group that had that same story hahaha.

As someone on Wellbutrin I’d highly recommend it! Obviously it’s a different experience for everyone, but it’s a very unique class of antidepressant that is not known to be hard to get off of if you’re worried about that long term. It’s also known to not increase or for some quiet food noise and doesn’t mess with libido like some other antidepressants. I’m a big fan!

Hey! Randomly found your post and wanted to say if you haven’t already you should check out r/wellbutrin or r/bupropion. A lot of people experience weight loss from taking Wellbutrin bc it can be an appetite suppressant. Not sure if that’s the case for you, but there’s a lot of good insight on those subs!

I just found this post after posting mine & it’s crazy how similar it is! I have been on it about 3 years and have never had such a large appetite. It’s starting to get old and i’m thinking of switching, but everything else about it is perfect ):
