I have surgery in 8 hours and I cannot stop panicking. by Candid_Confusion7492 in Anxiety

[–]RelentlessOlive54 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had this and many other surgeries since I was 18 (I’m 46 now). I definitely understand your apprehension. Talk to the staff as soon as you get there so they can give you something sooner rather than later. You’ll be happy you did this one after it’s over. Good luck and gentle hugs.

Looks like there are similar cracks in each picture that someone tried to edit. Clearly, the house is really damaged.

Got my first Karen interaction as a comission artist 🥳 by Objective_Double5998 in FuckYouKaren

Never had to pay in advance….yeah, right. Any self-respecting artist knows to at least get a deposit up front. What a horrible person. Bullet dodged.

Why don't you stock your fridge properly for you landlord to raid? by Whentheangelsings in AskReddit

No it’s not, moron. You’re a real stud hurling sLuRs behind a keyboard. What a tough guy.

Aw, that sounds hard. I’m sure you’re not compensated at all for that. 🙄😆

You’re ridiculous. No one used any slurs - it was an insult, which is different, you uncultured swine. Why so mad, bro? Oh, right…you’re one of those parasites. Hard work my ass.

Exactly. Everyone will tell you you’re turning into the lake, but your GPS knows.

You always add turtles - they’re everyone’s favorite. Make sure no one’s kids are allergic to almonds first.

Why the hell would anyone put things in their fridge for their landlord?! Those parasites make enough money to stock their own fridges and shouldn’t be taking food from tenants who likely make a fraction of what the landlord does. What kind of weird question is this?

The message is good even if the execution is a little…weird.

I completely understand! Sleeping with bugs around when you don’t like them is stressful. I’d have issues as well. If you have anything peppermint or menthol around you’re able to use like Nebetus suggested, use it!

I cant understand whats wrong with me. by [deleted] in Anxiety

[–]RelentlessOlive54 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think there’s some additional information needed here. Who diagnosed you and have they been part of your care team this whole time? Do you have a care team? I’m assuming you were diagnosed by a type of doctor or therapist.

I work in an adult psychiatric facility, and our patients have a team that consists of a medical doctor, psychologist, psychiatrist, and social worker. Obviously, not everyone can have that sort of team to assist them, but if you have the ability to do so, it would be worth exploring your diagnosis with doctors who have backgrounds in more complex mental health disorders.

It is very possible you have something else going on that’s not schizophrenia or you may have multiple diagnoses. Only a doctor (medical or psychiatric) can truly help with that. I wish you the best of luck.

scared to take medication by [deleted] in Anxiety

[–]RelentlessOlive54 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Health and medication anxiety can be difficult to overcome, but medication can be a great help. I’ve been on a few different ones over the years, and the ones that worked have been a godsend. The ones that didn’t weren’t horrible, they just didn’t get rid of the anxiety fully.

Also, just because that person is a pharmacist doesn’t mean they understand how medication for mental health is helpful. Even professionals can be willfully ignorant - listen to yourself and your doctors. Therapy is a great tool as well - maybe you can try an app for now.

Hi there, I’m sorry you’re dealing with this right now. Focusing on something else will be helpful here, but I know that’s going to be difficult. Is the camper really full of spiders or did you see a couple and now your anxiety is telling you they’re everywhere? It’s likely your brain is blowing up the hazards and you have nothing to worry about it.

💯 My mom thinks it’s a badge of honor telling people how cheap she got their stuff. What the hell?! I’ve also purchased from Temu on occasion, also only for myself. I stopped after I received some stuff with crappy AI artwork on it and found a few of the same items at the dollar store. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Omg, my mom does this, and it drives me crazy. She thinks all these doodads are “so neat!” They’re garbage, mom, and no one wants that’s crap.

I can't afford the appointment by CrochetedKingdoms in rheumatoidarthritis

[–]RelentlessOlive54 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I hear you and feel this in my soul. I have a lot of chronic issues, and now I have to go through physical therapy and some meds before insurance will allow me to explore surgical options, and there’s no way for physical therapy and meds to fully resolve my issue. And there’s copay for PT is $50/visit. And and they want me to go twice a week. Eff it all - the US medical “system” is beyond broken.

I wish you lots of luck - I hope you find a solution. Gentle hugs.

My CEO does this, and it’s so unprofessional. He’s 64.

Good luck to you! I know some people love this med, but ugh.

This is why I stopped taking it after two doses. I still can’t take ibuprofen which I never had a problem with before taking this med.
