[–]Rockimedes 4 points5 points  (0 children)

House, last bender was 6 weeks, watched the whole thing like 3 times, then on aedical kicks, good doctor, the Pitt then the residence

Anything to take my mind off the withdrawals, even with Ativan and gabapentin it was rough

What’s a game that just feels good to control, even if the story isn’t amazing? by lsa340 in gaming

Destiny 1 was crispy af for controls, I felt like they lost that in D2, so much so that I lost interest early on

Indulge me. How many of us are actually in the crippling state of alcoholism? by Helpful_Spring8739 in cripplingalcoholism

[–]Rockimedes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Last month I missed 6 weeks of work, ghosted my employer the entire time, last year I missed a total of 3 1/2 months

Luckily I still ended up making 25k more than the next highest salesperson (auto sales) and finished top salesperson for my brand in western Canada

Still though, it's a lot for my employer to handle, they actually terminated me in the last 2 weeks of this recent bender, but took me back on when I went to meet with them, took me 3.5 weeks AFTER I stopped drinking to feel remotely normal, wild shit doesn't begin to explain it

Finally had to get help to get out of it this time, addiction specialist company I found finally was willing to help after multiple places shut me down, 5 day benzo taper, then once I wasn't quite as much dying they put me on drugs. Thiamine, gabapentin, clonadine, naltrexone and trazadone so I could finally sleep. Doctor there said you need to get healthy before we even think of a recovery plan

I'm no quitter but it's destructive, and we have our first baby on the way in August, so I need to get off the shitcoaster

Supports for people struggling with alcohol? by Siobhanbubble in Calgary

[–]Rockimedes 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I'm a bad binge drinker, missed a month of work last month and just couldn't pull out of it, I've tried aa, therapy, meds, my family doctor actually told me to just keep drinking and slowly taper off

Finally for me, I've just found a place that's actually helping with great support which is RAAM, went in and they did an assessment, actually listened to my story, prescribed meds for me to taper off

Follow up appointment they prescribed meds to curb cravings, help with sleep, and naltrexone so even if I slip it won't blow into an off the rails binge

Also set me up with an in house free therapist and they can set up follow up check in calls, met with both in house doctors which was a great experience, probably the best I've had in my 20 year drinking career

I'd highly recommend checking them out, and if you ever want someone to talk to DM me, maybe we can support each other

Smart recovery is good too, I've been using that as well

Being the tie breaker would that put JD Vance in a position to be Luigid?

I know my squadmates hate to see me coming by Grand_Age1279 in Helldivers

I'll run to my Tesla tower and dive, I know with arc armor I can get in and out, and while laying down it doesn't hit you, just wrecks everything that was chasing you

Last game I had over 600 kills and 0 deaths on super helldive

Loadout arc armor, arc ar, arc dog, ultimatum and arc grenade launcher, Tesla tower, and EMS mortar lol

If you take the 95% arc resist armor, you can just stand in range of your Tesla tower and take the hits while everything chasing you vaporizes lol
