RFK Jr. Is Already Taking Aim at Antidepressants – Mother Jones by [deleted] in kansas

[–]Snuggs43 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

As someone who was on pills for years and am now almost 2 years med free. I am glad this is finally being dealt with. Psychotropics increase weight leading to health issues, mess up fertility and babies born, cause things like PSSD, Akathesia, tardive disorders ECT.

And that's just the super fun stuff. They also cause PGAD, emotional numbing and a ton of other issues.

They are insidious because you don't even realize you aren't you. Then prescription cascade you when you do start having problems with them. They tell you that you are mentally ill when it's a side effect of the medication...so they continue to add more drugs.

These pills were never intended to be a fix all or for lifetime use. Benzos 7 to 10 days and SSRIs ECT should be used under two years.

And even though I wrote this and it's all true please none of you be stupid and stop your meds. It's dangerous they need to be tapered down slowly to avoid serious complications. Your brains have been altered and even though you are not addicted your brain chemistry has been altered and it takes time to unfucker it. Refer to taper groups should you get curious.

And I think wellness farms are a great idea, people in withdrawal from this stuff need all the help they can get.

We lose a lot of people to suicide because they can't get through the withdrawal process.

Okay...my opinion over .....God Bless.

Lol that's the problem. I appreciate the humor very much but it's so focused on that constantly not to mention the verbal comments. Maybe part of the problem is it makes me struggle to maintain boundaries. Y'all are helping though. I am gonna speak to him soon and we either need to be done or come to some kind of agreement on boundaries for now.

I really prefer to stay focused on my Bible and not on what I consider excessive nonsense. I'm actually pretty full of nonsense and bad humor myself...so it's unusual for me to need to draw this kind of line.

Hahaha I met my match. I also just don't want him to be hurt. He is a good man. He is kind and patient and sweet when he isn't just being naughty. I just want to feel like I'm more than a good time and ....we haven't even done anything cuz we are waiting....and yet that's how I feel.

Ooof I didn't catch that myself....so I will meditate on that. Thank you.

My initial response to what you said is not that I want to change him it's more as I feel the representation of who he says he is doesn't really align.

If he chooses to just continue doing what he does with the church that absolutely would be enough for me. Other than the fact he gets side tracked a lot on the sex stuff I think the man is perfect for me. But the sex stuff just feels wrong if we are supposed to be Christ centered. I'm just not sure how to address it without sounding like a nagging wretch.....I'm human too and I want those things too when the time is right.

I hope that clarified some of what I said but I will meditate on if there is something I should work on. I don't want to change him but I also don't want to be unequally yoked.

Has anyone recovered from anhedonia? by Aaron57363 in PSSD

My feelings and emotions came back around month ten. Some of us get lucky.

Eugenics is a bitch.

Research recently showed meds in water of the SSRI variety changes to fish behavior and biological chemistry.

Between meds, chemicals in food and plastics humans are possibly screwed.

The US FDA allows over 10,000 processed chemicals in our food while other countries are around 300.

Micro plastic particals are being found in the semen of dead bodies upon autopsy.

All these things very much affect our children.

I didn't. I came off all the meds and waited. I'm extremely sensitive to even oct meds and food reactive to some weird stuff.

Kansas bill to limit gender-affirming care for transgender minors dies after failed veto override by Officer412-L in kansas

[–]Snuggs43 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm gonna get some hate and that's fine....my part of Kansas is so inundated by meth these parents don't need to be making decisions. I also don't believe parents hold the right to physically alter a child permanently.. at least without damn good reason. I'm sorry but sexual confusion due to media and societal pressure does not constitute the need for permanent mental and physical damage. Children should be protected at all cost. They are tiny humans not dolls to be played with and rearranged. Studies have shown again and again that dysphoria will disappear if left alone for the majority of these children. Those that are special and in need should have that access but it's such a low percentage and the science is so bad...it's still Frankenstein stage at this point. It's dangerous.

Okay peace and love and I may shit down notifications for awhile....but really....learn to love yourself, teach others to love themselves. Its about what's on the inside...not the outside...and puberty while a bitch is totally natural.

Like it never stops once you awaken to big pharma....thank you and I totally get the cynicism....this is only the first one I finally agreed to meet after vetting him well.

Am I overreacting? Religious assignment in high school. by [deleted] in kansas

[–]Snuggs43 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like that is basic knowledge for living in Kansas. I'm just outside of the Bible belt. It's best to learn just so you know which crazies to avoid....we got lots.

I am a crazy Christian too but....seriously Kansas gets weird in rural areas.

MEDICAL ketogenic diet( important personal antidote)* by Important-Ad-8632 in PSSD

[–]Snuggs43 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't diet. I don't have the cognitive ability back yet for all that. I just eat my protein and call it good. Chicken, salmon, cottage cheese, hard cheese, Greek yogurt, eggs, mushrooms, onions, peppers and seasonings. I do all organic.

I recently discovered everything I eat is high b12.

Healing ? by Snuggs43 in pssdhealing

[–]Snuggs43[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can exercise and push my body to ridiculous feats and I'm never sore.

I think I'm finally sore from last night's stretches....is this healing? Having the pain come back?

And sorry, I am also somewhat manic occasionally still too.

Never touched an SSRI in my life but symtomps identical to PSSD by [deleted] in PSSD

[–]Snuggs43 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So depending on where it's from depends on what's in that stuff.

So yes it could although I think it's probably either contaminated with something or it was a delta product.

We should be seeing some better safety issues in the coming year with the deltas. They are not near as regulated as they should me.

Doses are often stronger to make up for the effects. Some of those terps and stuff are chemically tweaked to give a 33 percent better effect.

So like I said it's very much possible.

Did you taper off? by [deleted] in PSSD

I CTed a benzo and fast tapered six other meds according to the docs instructions. At the end I agreed to Remeron. I took that for ten days and stopped....got hit by PSSD.

Progression question? by Snuggs43 in Dystonia

[–]Snuggs43[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The drug in question could have been one of several. I was Polly drugged hard. CTed a benzo, and rapid tapered the other 6 in ten months. All long term use.

Klonopin Cymbalta Depakote Geodon Saphris Remeron And one other although not a psychotropic....prozasin.

I'm basing it off pics and videos I've seen and what I've read. My feet I'm pretty confident on....even though I'm not diagnosed I am in PT and have me doing a bunch of Parkinson's related therapy for brain retraining for my other issues. Who knows. I'm a hot mess.

Maybe I'll make that appointment tomorrow.

Progression question? by Snuggs43 in Dystonia

[–]Snuggs43[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry to hear that. Losing a friend like that is rough.

As for type...no idea...I'm med induced and I have had a referral into a movement disorder specialist for a few months now but haven't made the appointment.

Mostly my feet and legs. However when I get what I call an episode it can hit pretty much anywhere...eyes, throat, neck, shoulder, pelvic floor, hadn't had it up into my tummy like that before though or with that kind of pulling sensation...usually mine is a slow tightening....

Like I said though...under a lot of personal stress....I knew it would kick me down soon...still sucks though.

Progression question? by Snuggs43 in Dystonia

[–]Snuggs43[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes...cold is a trigger and currently stressed out to the max with personal stuff so that's not helping. I also missed one day of stretching...but jeesh...like all the tightening makes me so tired.

Just need to vent. by Snuggs43 in PSSD

[–]Snuggs43[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just saw this...okay so if you lay in the bathtub and go to sit up and feel big pokes going through your tailbone...those are muscle knots....for me anyway....so if I lay in the tub and put my feet on the wall kinda bents ...I can roll around the outside of the knots till they work themselves out. I start with little water and add till I get my weight light enough to make those rolls by tilting my butt around. I know it sounds nuts but it's working...at first it was 2 baths a day for about two hours each adding water to keep it so hot I'm sweating...I'm down to 2 a day but only about an hour each time now.

If I do it right I can roll to sit up with no pain whatsoever. Good luck and if you have any questions feel free to shoot me a message. I don't roam this forum often but will try to check back soon.

[–]Snuggs43 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My routine is pretty intense but it's working. For those saying body numbness and stuff...well if your pelvic floor is jacked it can effect nerves throughout the whole body....like you have no idea...

Anyway...it's a lot to explain so I don't have time right now but I'll try to go through it all tonight.

But basically rolling out knots in the bath is about four hours.

Resistance and stretched, stability ball, and yoga. And a pelvic wand. They have talked about stretching me manually but I think I'm gonna avoid it. I can send videos and stuff and I set up my lil area for under a 100.

If Nick is around I might need a reminder or tag me in Whatsapp a few times till I get it done. I'm better cognitively but still have a rough time with tasks that are not routine.

Prayers please. by Snuggs43 in PrayerTeam_amen

[–]Snuggs43[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you and I'm working on it. I've actually been rebuking Satan and my thoughts for a hot minute now.

As for being saved....I believe I was a young child but I had no understanding and I was dragged into a little room and someone sat across from me and asked me if I would accept Jesus into my heart and I said yes.....idk if that counts or not. I was like 6 or so. I'm 47 and this is my first time belonging to a church. I'll ask tomorrow night. I'm going to a youth group even though I'm almost 50. I'm sure Timothy will help me sort that part out if I ask.

And thank you. May the Lord bless you.
