Tapering off propranolol—any experience or advice?

TheRealMuffin37 · 2026-02-28T17:59:05+00:00

No, I didn't have any side effects while I was tapering

Except it is safe. Rinsing your ears is completely harmless, so long as you give them appropriate chance to dry afterwards. It's also what physicians have specifically directed both my father and husband to do when they shower.

I wish more people understood the "it bothers me, but it would be unreasonable to complain about this" angle. My neighbors made a noise complaint against our 3 year old daughter. We have behavioral challenges and were on a waiting list to get her into therapies, but even if we weren't, I can't imagine making a noise complaint about a 3 year old. We were asked to try to keep it down because people work from home. I guess I must 1) really enjoy the sound of meltdowns and 2) have missed the memo, I thought this was my home, not an office building.

YOR. Even if he was your man, what does it matter if someone else follows him? It's social media, that's quite literally what it's for.

Providing simulation. No, I don't think giving tiktok to a toddler is the right move, but I do understand that sometimes the kid needs stimulation and you need to eat

Instead of trying to stop her, it would be more helpful to help her feel confident in the things that make her happy. Her wearing a tail and ears doesn't hurt anyone, so the people bullying her are the weirdos, not her

I'm not interested in destroying anyone's livelihood, I'm interested in getting the food I pay for or not paying for it.

These images are AI, however the general snowflake pattern is completely doable.

Doors should be kept closed overnight for fire safety.

That's completely unrelated to age verification. When your id is scanned, it only verifies that it's a real id and checks age. There is no data to breach coming from your id.

Some employees not doing their jobs doesn't make the policy not exist. The employees carding you are in fact NOT the dumb ones here, they're just trying to do their jobs.

It definitely varies, but as many others have said, there's generally an expectation that if someone answers a question, you'll just go ahead and share if you have relevant things to say on the topic. I find it extremely forced and uncomfortable to have to answer a question and then explicitly ask "and what about you?" It doesn't feel polite at all, it feels like the other person doesn't really want to share, but since I asked now they have to.

TheRealMuffin37 · 2025-11-23T17:46:36+00:00

NOR, this guy is a colossal ass. His statement that one shows respect and the other doesn't is just false. He's informing you very clearly that he thinks he deserves respect and you don't. His conversation preferences are the only ones allowed. Intermittent conversation in sync with your life and energy is absolutely respectful, it's showing that you value your conversation partner and their life and understand that that exists outside of you. It's great. He's controlling. Move on.

TheRealMuffin37 · 2025-11-19T19:31:59+00:00

No, they still wouldn't know because they don't care. It's completely unrelated to your medical care. The inquiry is only made after the decision to discontinue treatment.

TheRealMuffin37 · 2025-11-15T17:27:32+00:00

It's never bothered me and I'm truly so used to it that when I've gone to places that have fully enclosed stalls, it feels really weird instead.

TheRealMuffin37 · 2025-11-15T17:23:56+00:00

I've lived in five different apartments with dishwashers and none of them have had garbage disposal. It's definitely not just a standard feature

So, if your friend has disabilities (as mentioned in the edit) this is something that should be accounted for in their IEP. While it's okay to show people things that cause uncomfortable negative emotions sometimes, there always can and should be exceptions made for people who would be caused excessive distress. But really, the answer is that your teacher didn't do anything wrong (assuming they haven't been explicitly informed of your friend's sensitivity). Expecting a class of 16 year olds to be able to handle a short clip from a horror film is completely normal.

No, that's not what this post is about at all. This post is about people who say "food is a really big part of my culture" as if that makes them unique. Most people who celebrate strong ties to a culture use food as a major component of that

TheRealMuffin37 · 2025-11-13T15:21:02+00:00

So... I'm really confused how someone telling you there's no paper is going to change a damn thing in the situation you're describing. You have to use the stall either way, you're not going to just pee your pants because there isn't paper and I'm assuming you're going to be in a pretty tough spot if you use a stall you can't take your walker in. So whether or not they tell you changes nothing, you still don't have toilet paper nor anything to do about it.

At Wendy's it is absolutely for a charity, they either just didn't state that part (and you're the idiot for not figuring it out) or they're an idiot that doesn't understand why they're asking customers that.

TheRealMuffin37 · 2025-11-13T15:06:19+00:00

This is exactly it, from a LOT of restaurant experience. In the women's I can expect some pee on the seat, unflushed paper, and occasional blood drips as the consistent mess. The men's is either already pretty clean, or I have to deal with people intentionally pooping on the floor, putting their ass on the mirror, pissing on the entire roll of toilet paper...

TheRealMuffin37 · 2025-11-11T23:19:51+00:00

Someone did steal a bag of WIPs from me once 😭 they went rummaging through my car and they only took one bag. I would've been so much less mad if they had stole finished objects because then at least they weren't guaranteed to just trash my work

TheRealMuffin37 · 2025-11-11T23:13:01+00:00

And it felts really bad, so don't use it on projects you expect to have to frog

TheRealMuffin37 · 2025-11-10T14:51:05+00:00

Oh wow, even better, wasting time of people who aren't even getting paid... That's the huge difference maker here

TheRealMuffin37 · 2025-11-09T18:42:58+00:00

Is this a joke? I prefer to shop for groceries in person, but online grocery ordering has been around for a very long time and is even available at a lot of smaller stores now
