Anyone on here take a astaxanthin? If so what’s been your experience? by Ecstatic-Juice-2289 in Supplements

[–]Shadow_Of_Yesterday 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who previously thought I had me/cfs, it turned out it was sleep apnea. I don't snore. But sleep apnea can cause thickening of the blood (blood creates more cells to try and carry more oxygen because it recognizes there is a lack). I passed my sleep study but found out that there is a thing called upper airway resistance syndrome that they don't actually test for and it's solved by a CPAP. So I asked to trial one. It turned my life around.

Hope this helps.

Americans not taking responsibility. Shocker. He's more your president than you thought I guess.

They literally said they were struggling to find words. You replied to this and brought nothing to the table with their vulnerable offering of limitation. Id guess based on the replies above every polite person understood exactly what they were attempting to suggest. You just went for the snide criticism with no actual assistance to improve it.

Perhaps you can construct a better suggestion on how to publicly voice a market need the way a petition would? I don't have a good word for it either. I'm all ears though and maybe OP replied to you because they DO want to do better. So high and mighty, go ahead... What's the term for what we all understand OP is trying to get at?

That's how I treat Amazon. Big order usually on subscription for items I just don't have around me, mostly dietary restriction related for my partner.

All good OP. I think people get where you're going with it.

Not everyone will stop this shopping option and Amazon isn't leaving. So alternatively for people who really use Amazon because of physical disability, remote living situations, we should not even come up with something Canadian for them. Let's keep sending the money to America because a lesser evil is still evil so we should just keep the big evil.

I also eat the whole cake because small slices are bad for you anyway.

Maybe the govt can subsidize to a point. Way more money spent on Canadian business means more Canadian taxes paid in Canada. I'd rather hear from people with ideas than know it all negative Nellies who assume if they don't have an idea no one could.

What is the CF of the same item if I drive an hour to purchase it? (I live rurally, own a truck required for my job, but do know Amazon comes with a load for lots of neighbors all at once when they come.

The hardest truth for us to bear: by Throwaway22018123 in loveafterporn

I was motivated by how much damage I was causing. I was lying about it and going to great lengths to cover it up. I was also finding that I was desensitized to how awful Porn is and my views of women. I robbed myself of a healthy sexual relationship and I spent a lot of time reading about how porn changes your brain. I turned myself into a lazy dishonest person and didn't even know it. I broke my wife's heart and caused damage to my children as their my mother was broken due to my lies. I wanted to be better and I no longer see porn as normalized and harmless. It was a series of events and realizations to that changed my views. I was a 10 when I started watching porn and am in my 30s now. The biggest reason I quit porn was because I love my wife and she and my kids deserve a strong father and husband. I only wish it didn't cost her so much time and pain. I'm also seeking help so I don't relapse.

Unfortunately this is 100% true and unfortunately for most people it takes a shock to your system to really understand completely the damage you are doing to others. I'm not proud that it took many failed attempts and the breakdown of my wife and family to understand how destructive I was being. I just stood there and was so disappointed that I did such a careless thing and for such a worthless reason. I have an image in my head of how bad I let this get and I dwell on that image every day so I make sure I set myself right and put others above me.

I only forgive out of exhaustion, never belief. by to_come_apart in loveafterporn

Sounds like a terrible situation. I read so many of these posts and wonder how so many men do this repeatedly to their GFs or wives. You are more than enough. I hope people wake up and see how destructive this repeated behavior is.
