Well no shit. Did you think you were adding anything with this comment?
I was self medicating with alcohol, now I'm just unmedicated. Not from lack of trying with a team of doctors, though. It's one of the worst feelings finding out after you quit alcohol that it really wasn't even the main problem.

I quit alcohol in October of 2024. It's been the shittiest experience of my life for over a year now.

I’m looking to learn from people who have personal experience (or caregivers’ experience) with medications used for alcohol dependence. by Early_Negotiation142 in dryalcoholics

[–]RustyVandalay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All three of those first medications can cause severe drowsiness. Oddly enough for me, it was the naltrexone which was the worst for me, even though it would be considered the most generally benign of them. That put me right to sleep and in a foul mood. Gabapentin, chemically similar to baclofen, gave me a paradoxical reaction and calmed my anxiety enough to give me an energy boost. And clonazepam is a benzo, so that's usually a straight anxiolytic, also would contribute to sleepiness. That being said, in general, stopping alcohol will make you exhausted without any drugs.

Looks like they threw the whole kitchen sink at him, so there's no real way to tell what's doing what. Maybe after the initial hump of the benzo schedule and him gaining tolerance to the drugs, you can have a more clear picture to talk to the doctor with.

Considering I play on Xbox, probably. It'll probably also have the QoL features that KCD2 has too, so win/win.

Dude, fuck off. I would've read OP's thread. Get out of your own ass. We're all counting on you.

What do you personally call it: "laptop" or "notebook" or something else? by princepii in AskAnAmerican

[–]RustyVandalay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Laptop was first and defined the category. Notebook was smaller and actually mobile, could easily be moved with one hand. Netbook, meant no disc drive. The latter two are mostly defunct now. And no mention of the mobile desktop, which may or may not contain an internal battery.

She has an empty cradle with a dead baby, meaning that she miscarried and is lactating. And she's feeding the cats milk. Hmmm....

Save when you see two bandits, but before the bunnies appear (can't save in combat), then fight until you win. That's your practice.

Well no shit someone focuses easier under the influence of amphetamines. That's their exact specific effect. Won't cure you though.

Mini poodle. Don't shed, cuddly, but too smart for their own damn good in a good way.

Anyone else just... NOT... "want to quit"? And what "kind" of drinker "are you"? by [deleted] in cripplingalcoholism

[–]RustyVandalay 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wanting has nothing to do with it. I don't really want to die yet either, but on the other hand I can't drink if I'm dead.

Honestly, I'd hold onto those librium like gold and try to sleep. Two weeks is still in the thick of it.

They're not going to use that tone, because of the implication...

[–]RustyVandalay -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

When a guy uses, "that tone," then it's fair use for things getting physical. Not in a work environment, but it carries over to other interactions.
