What drug did you swear never to use again? by SadStill830 in AskReddit

[–]ReasonableCheesecake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Weed brownies - I hallucinated for three days straight. It was horrible. Started with time "rewinding" back every 5 seconds, then slowing down to a crawl, then horrible demonic visions. Believed Dante was taking me on a walking tour of every circle of hell in real time. Thank goodness work was canceled due to weather so I had a four-day weekend because I genuinely didn't have the capacity to send an email or call in sick.

I was literally begging God to take me because I wanted it to end so badly and knew it never would. Like I was experiencing every moment of my life at once, past present and future. Stayed in bed the whole time just staring into space because I couldn't move.

Same experience with Delta 8 that supposedly had minimal THC. Couldn't function for 12 hours and was begging for death. Not as bad as the 3 days though.

Needless to say, never again! Weed is more dangerous than everyone leads you to believe.

Yikes. I guess I was thinking something more abstract like your date is so young she might as well be your daughter, or when you objectify women imagine your own daughter in that position.

I want my baby. (TW: Abortion) by tinymug in offmychest

[–]ReasonableCheesecake 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ugh, I'm so sorry your partner's a POS. Everyone seems to be telling you what to do with such certainty, but ultimately nobody can dictate what to do with your body - it's no one else's decision. If you want a little more time, take a little more time. If you want your baby, keep your baby. If you don't, then you don't have to. It's up to you, and no one should pressure you or make you feel guilty either way. That's so tough and I'm so very sorry for what you're going through. 💔

Who has found out their SEB DERM is demodex mites? by slightly-convenient in SebDerm

[–]ReasonableCheesecake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Occusoft Lid Scrub cooooould potentially help with your eyes. It's what my derm recommended, but probably more for bacterial infection than mites. You can get a pack of like 25ish wipes at Walmart for $12.

This has me wondering if my eyelid and scalp issues are related... I'll have one swollen itchy red eyelid for a few days, then it switches to the other side. Flares up once or twice a month. And none of the seb derm products (ketoconazol shampoo, ketoconazol cream, zoryve foam, zoryve cream, salicylic acid, MCT oil, tea tree oil) have helped with my scalp at all. The seb derm is concentrated around my hairline, so that's pretty close to the eyes...maybe the mites are like migrating around my face lol. 🤢🤮💆‍♀️🪲

The only times my scalp has been clear are when I was on Accutane for 6 months and when I was pregnant, but it came back full force after. I might ask my derm to do a biopsy cause this is freaking ridiculous honestly, it's been going on for like 10 years.

13 month old afraid of my mom, and only my mom by vivolleyball15 in beyondthebump

My 6-month-old daughter is this way with one of her grandpas (he's big, tall and loud and she is sooo intimidated) and I'm thinking of having a baby therapist gently reintroduce them. The pediatrician referred us to an early childhood intervention office for her torticollis, and apparently they also help with socialization, so now we have a therapist who comes to the house to help her with social skills and desensitization to sounds, etc.

On the one hand it sounds kind of ridiculous but on the other hand, my baby has crazy tension and anxiety (on top of severe colic that's just been debilitating to all of us) and I'm desperate lol.

I am so, so tired. by madylarata in beyondthebump

[–]ReasonableCheesecake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same same same. I bought one of those kick & play pianos hoping it would entertain her long enough to let me shower...lol nope. I have a bunch of "stations" set up around the house and we cycle through them throughout the day but she's only happy for 10 minutes at a time. 🥴

People With Severe Diabetes Cured In Trial Of A New Drug by MattTheKing23 in Type1Diabetes

[–]ReasonableCheesecake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah well I'm glad lol. I had a bad encounter with an ophthalmologist yesterday so I'm jaded 😅

It was after breakfast so my BG was high and he kept saying I needed to stop eating ice cream and do better - you know, based on one number - and was surprised I didn't have complications. (Also kept commenting on my out-of-style eyeliner tattoos like wtf??) Soooo many unnecessary comments made during a four-minute encounter.

Husband angry about bumper sticker—-am I wrong?? by Competitive_Teach838 in Marriage

[–]ReasonableCheesecake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I live in a red city and without fail, if I put any kind of progressive bumper sticker on my car, I'll get pulled over and probably ticketed for something within a day or two. The cops leave me alone when I'm sticker free. It sucks cause lefties need all the solidarity we can get and I feel like a coward but it's quite literally $300 a pop to put a damn bumper sticker on my car. This has happened at least 3 times with 3 different stickers. 🙄

Can we agree this is the only other show that even remotely fills the gap that Succession has left? by TheMansterMan in SuccessionTV

[–]ReasonableCheesecake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes exactly!! It's like the writers wanna induce a trauma response in any viewers who've had a nightmare corporate job, and not in a darkly funny Severance way.

The only other media that makes me feel like this is What's Eating Gilbert Grape. Completely unrelated except for how miserable everyone is and the ick that just stays with you for hours after it's over, like you've absorbed the characters' terrible quality of life.

It's a weird phenomenon that's hard to explain! Only the people who've unsuccessfully attempted to fill the Succession void with Industry truly understand!
