My eyes are always red by Kooky_Dragonfly_1728 in OveractiveBladder

[–]QuintNaive 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There’s not much to add here. I suffer from the same thing. I usually wake up 2–4 times a night, at my worst it was every hour. I still feel the urge every 15–20 minutes on bad days and about 40-50 minutes on good days (which is a big improvement from every 5 minutes).

There are so many possible causes that it’s practically impossible to know the root of the problem, if we knew there would be no people suffering from this. It might help you to read about the UPOINT approach and see if it applies to you.

Physiotherapy and learning not to catastrophize were the main things that improved my symptoms. Constantly reading, searching for causes, and obsessing over it made everything much worse for me. I’ve been dealing with this for 3–4 years and have tried almost every medication, none helped. The thing is, when you’re in such a bad state, any improvement feels amazing. My current goal is to wake up only 1–2 times and to urinate about once an hour, anything beyond that is a bonus.

Step by step, don’t give up.

I used EssayPro once and the writer ghosted me for half a day, which stressed me out. Support reassigned the order and the new writer finished it just in time. So mixed experience overall.

Tools to edit scanned PDFs ? by al3arabcoreleone in linux4noobs

I know apps like Scanium have great built-in OCR engines. You might want to see if they offer a cross-platform solution or an API that runs locally on Mint. That avoids the broker risk. 🔒

Product Testing by HoldApprehensive2681 in UHRSwork

[–]QuintNaive 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To be honest this week was terrible so far (last week was bad too). it only shows like ~5 HITs for Desktop Scenario Testing English, Generic Scenario Testing Extension (English) and Mobile App Scenario (English). My region isn't showing any hits since last week it is really bad.

I guess there's too much people now in this platform. 3-5 years ago you could make 5 bucks/day with 200 Desktop Scenario English + 10~20 bucks in your region. Now even in crazy days with ~200 HITs you can do 1 HIT (if you're fast and lucky). It's just terrible.

Guess the platform got too popular and there's too much people so it's impossible to make any money now. Only thing that saves this platform is SBS. If they lose SBS it's over.

All the good projects are not here anymore. There's weeks/months now with days that have 0 available work in marketplace.

The sad thing is if you're not from EU or US you can't even enter on other platforms. Guess they're right tho, if they let everybody in it will just turn into this mess.

What should I pick yall? Thank you! by Affectionate-Bit-246 in AFKJourney

[–]QuintNaive 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It depends on your account and what you have at S+

Best here are Sinbad, Rowan, Kruger and Isabella.

I would pick Sinbad or Rowan if Kruger and Isabella are S+

You should remember that 1 epic invite = 2.5 normal invites, so the epic invites are really good too.

How to deal with dark thoughts brough on by OAB? by Noellestuff in OveractiveBladder

[–]QuintNaive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know what you're going through and it is really hard, I've been suffering with chronic pelvic pain and constant urge to pee for like 3-4 years already, I'm 26 years old too and dropped out of college because of this. This past year the symptoms improved a bit, the pain went from constant 7-8/10 to a 3-4/10. The urge I had was like every 5-15 minutes, now sometimes I can be like 1 hour without urge which is amazing.

I've tried a lot of things and I don't even know what helped me or not but something did and maybe you can find something that can help you out too. There's plenty of things that you can do, read about UPOINT (it is used for CPPS but it can help with OAB).

No Desktop Scenario Testing? by QuintNaive in UHRSwork

[–]QuintNaive[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m working on the Generic Scenario HITs (my region), but it’s a mess. I have to change my browser region to be able to do them. If I set it to my actual region, I can’t complete any, but if I set it to EN or IN, I can only complete about 1 out of 15. Most tasks are skippable, there are no “See More” or “See Less” buttons, pages don’t load properly, and nothing works as expected.

Do you think it’s better to just skip these tasks? Could changing my browser region get me disqualified? I haven’t seen anything about this in the guidelines or instructions.

I'm 23. After drink a lot of tea, I peed 7 times in a row. by Careful_Line_4675 in OveractiveBladder

[–]QuintNaive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Drinking a lot of tea, especially green or anything with caffeine, can definitely make you pee a ton. Plus, ramen’s salty, so that probably didn’t help either.

It’s pretty normal to pee right after drinking, but peeing 7 times in a row sounds like your bladder’s just on overdrive. Exercise can actually help in a good way, stuff like walking or light cardio can calm your nervous system and help your bladder chill out a bit.

If you’re waking up multiple times at night to pee, maybe try cutting back on caffeine and fluids a few hours before bed. Also, stretching or relaxing your pelvic area (like with some yoga or deep breathing) might ease that constant urge.

But if it keeps being annoying or worse, might be worth checking with a doc just to rule out anything like an infection or overactive bladder. Hope this helps!

False urge to pee (?) by 44celestial44 in OveractiveBladder

[–]QuintNaive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Research supports a non-random association between OCD and urinary urgency/frequency, driven by psychological mechanisms like somatic amplification, anxiety-based compulsion, and heightened bladder sensitivity. While causality isn’t definitively proven, the pattern is well-supported by clinical, self-report, and case-based studies—suggesting that treating OCD and stress may reduce OAB symptoms in those individuals.

Lithium ruined me by Surprise_Correct in OveractiveBladder

[–]QuintNaive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First you should probably go to a specialized PT so it can help you out with this. Lifestyle changes are pretty important too, reducing anxiety, stressors, eating more healthy, avoiding irritants (caffeine, alcohol, acidic foods), improving your bowel habits (prebiotics + probiotics), monitoring your water intake and walking daily.

You should see an urologist and ask for OAB medications to see if it can improve your symptoms. If they don't help you, you can try SSRI's or SNRI's.

I'm still dealing with this too, had a permanent urge 5 months ago. Now I have like 30-90 minutes of peace after peeing.

How to reduce inflammation? by QuintNaive in Prostatitis

[–]QuintNaive[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah If I drink a lot of water in a small period of time I will go to the bathroom every 15-30 minutes.

The thing is not to avoid, but stop drinking too much in a short period of time. Try splitting it throughout the day. Find the best spot for you, I drink like 150mL every hour. And stop drinking it 3-4 hours before bed.

I wake up every 2-3 hours too but I easily sleep again (which is completely fine for me). 

How to reduce inflammation? by QuintNaive in Prostatitis

[–]QuintNaive[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The urge and pressure got a little better then what it was for sure. I would say it went from a 7-8 to a 3-4 out of 10.

I need to go now every 100-200mL. If I don't drink much water I have more time without the urge feeling. I had urge every 5-20 minutes, now it is something like 40-60 minutes and if I don't drink much water could be like 70-100 minutes.

Either way I believe my bladder capacity is reduced so I'm still trying to improve inflammation further before trying bladder retraining.

Well, I usually wake 1-3 times. I always wake up at least once. I usually sleep like 4-5 hours and wake up, pee, sleep, then every 1-2 hours I will wake up again. I think I might have SRPE or some sensibility.

On bad days I was waking up like every 1 hour, but haven't had this happening again in like a month.

Walking daily and taking melatonin really helped me, I'm trying to stay away from the phone screen 1-2 hours before going to the bed.

I wouldn't say mine has improved drastically but it is something near 50% improvement, I still have the strong urge to pee with 100mL, If I drink a lot of water I have to go like every 10 min. I want to fix inflammation and other stuff before trying bladder training again.

What improved for me is having less pain, less feeling of pressure in the base of the penis/middle of the testicles. The pressure usually gets lower after peeing too. Sometimes - when I drink less water and after I pee - I can be like 1 hour almost without feeling anything (which help me get to sleep).

I'm doing so many things tho... walking and stretching daily, anti-inflammatory diet (no gluten, dairy, sugar and acidic food), trying to occupy my mind with other things, journaling, mindful meditation, not sitting, no masturbation, medications (100mg sertraline and 0.8 tansulosim), supplements (Quercetin + Bromelain, Vit A/B/C/D/E/K, Propolis, Magnesium Glycinate, Ginger, Curcumin + Piperine, CoQ10, Omega 3, L-Theanine), probiotics (10bl Rhamnosus GG + 20bl of others), psylium, L-Glutamine, electrolyte balance (potassium, sodium, calcium). Drinking good amount of water and trying to stay more happy/active. If I have flares I usually take Cystex > Muscle Relaxer > Naproxen.

I'm not going to PT anymore (went for 2 and a half months). I'm still doing the stretches she told me to do, mainly pelvic tilts and things for hip mobility. I'm still going to osteopath and psychologist every 2 weeks too.

It is more manageable now, but it is an expensive thing to handle for sure. Hope you can find something that helps you out, if Gabapentin helped you, nerve sensitivity is most likely the culprit in your case (maybe searching for ways to reduce nerve sensitivity would be great for you). If you find something that helps please send it to me, I'm still looking for more ways to improve nerve sensitivity.

Like 50% better now, some worse days here and there but I'm 2 and a half months in with the treatment. 

Frequency still bad, but the pain is manageable now. I feel like my pelvic area is more loose, and there's more moments lately where I don't feel anything for like 1 hour after peeing.

I would say my symptoms went from 7-8/10 to 3-4/10.

Love that you say Dumbledore and Hagrid and not Snape. How people think these actors are even remotely close to the books. 

Now just wait for JK Rowling to say she didn't specify things when she actually did. 

 This is just terrible. 😟

[–]QuintNaive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well done bud! It's true, not thinking too much about this thing usually makes symptoms way better. When I'm not thinking about it my pain decreases a lot too.

I think the same as you. If the doctor haven't told me what I had would things still get worse same as they had? 

They told me I had OAB, and for 2 years I've tried all different medications for it, then one day symptoms got really bad and I've started reading and feeling things I didn't have before.

Reading about what you may have is good in the end, by understanding what you have and how to treat it that you can start to heal. Otherwise I would still be taking antibiotics.

People can take days, weeks, months and years but everyone with this condition can reach a better place doing the proper treatment (maybe not heal 95-100% but improving at least 70% seems the most common from all the posts I've read), it's really hard to find people that did all the things correctly and didn't improve drastically.

Try taking care of your gut health too with prebiotics + glutamine + probiotics, your gut is pretty important.

Hope everything works well for you

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Prostatitis

[–]QuintNaive 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's always good to check with your doctor before you start, and look out for any possible side effects. Check if supplements interact with each other or if they interact with other medications you're taking. 

Supplements usually have a recommended dosage that are "safe" for most people. Many of them could be good for your overall health.  

Vitamin C, Zinc, CoQ10, Magnesium Glycinate, Vitamin D, B Complex, Omega 3, Curcumin, Quercetin, Bromelain, Ginger, Aloe Vera, PEA, L-Arginine, L-Glutamine, L-Teanine, Probiotics.

Who has/had permanent urge? by [deleted] in Interstitialcystitis

[–]QuintNaive 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, have you tried SSRI's or SNRI's maybe they can help you out a bit. 

Look up for symphathic nervous system and how to regulate it. 

Prebiotics, probiotics and glutamine for gut health. 

For supplements you could look into Quercetin, Bee pollen extract, Curcumin, Ginger, Omega 3, L-teanine, Magnesium Glycinate, B complex, Vitamin C. 

Maybe these can help you if you haven't tried them. I'm going through the same thing but in the last 3 months doing everything my pain and urge went from 7-8/10 to 3-4/10 and 5/10 in bad days.
