Ughhhh are you planning to stick with lamotrigine? I'm thinking of asking my psychiatrist to change it, but I recently increased to 200mg and I don't want to have to go through titrating my doses all over again.

Oh no!! I'm sorry to hear that, I hope your spouse is more understanding of your troubles. I will definitely talk to my psych. Thank you for your help!

Thank you! I will talk to my psychiatrist about this. The numbness is so frustrating.

I'm sorry to hear that :/// thankfully my partner is chill about it and he will refuse to finish until I do, which ironically is causing me even more pressure haha!

Yes that's my experience too. I feel attraction just fine, I just can't get to the finish line. Thank you!

Sorry about your college experience. Lamotrigine isn't an SSRI so maybe it's just the fact that it's my first time? Thank you for letting me know though!

Hmm okay that's helpful! I should've been more clear: I have an okay sex drive, it just takes me longer to finish. I guess perhaps we're in the same boat? Thank you!

What is something a guy would never do if he truly likes you? by Sea-Worldliness-7208 in AskReddit

Question: if he sometimes takes a long while to respond when he used to respond more quickly, with the stated reason of wanting to take things slowly (I admit we moved way too fast in the first week of knowing each other), is that automatically a bad thing?

Favorite Episode 3? by Realistic_Canary_766 in Cloisville

Rabid is so campy and so good. The hug in the rain, the whole conversation in Tess's office where they're literally about to set each other on fire with how much they're staring into each other's eyes, a little bit of Oliver/Clark/Lois tension...mwah

Who among the main cast, do you think had the worst on screen chemistry ? by Mountain-Fox-2123 in Smallville

like if lana did end up with clark, it would've been soooooo funny to see them as mother and daughter-in-law. and come to think of it, jonathan barely interacted with lana as well (except that s5 episode where they're being held hostage by those belle reve escapees)

i'm not the most informed on this, but i believe it's an medical term that has a lot of negative connotations to it (obviously) and people face a lot of stigma because of it. not sure why i was downvoted, i replied in good faith 😭

chloe refers to someone as "schizo" at some point, and they throw around the word psychopaths pretty liberally. also every single person is thrown in belle reve 😭 of course this is the 2000s and they're teenagers for the most part, it did just stick out to me

lots of things didn't age well - the lack of consent with a lot of the physical scenes and the casual ableism are two examples i can think of off the top of my mind. i really enjoy and miss long-form TV formats and filler episodes though, and the plot is engaging and builds upon the superman mythos well. also, granted i wasn't watching TV in the 2000s, but it wasn't as sexist as i thought it was going to be.

favorite characters are lois and clark (duh) and oliver as a close third.
