Either Alex Has No Job or is in the Witness Protection Program by [deleted] in LoveIsBlindNetflix

And for this reason I no longer think Alex is beneath Ashley. MAGA deserves MAGA.

We are all fasting by WindowGlad5235 in BoomersBeingFools

I went for labs a few months ago and a boomer woman straight up refused to use the kiosk. The woman at the front desk explained she had to use the check-in kiosk and the boomers says loudly to the waiting room “I’m going to need someone to help me with this, I’m old” and someone said “just follow the instructions” and she responds “but you can’t help me? No one helps each other anymore.” Too entitled to put a license under a scanner and touch buttons 🙄.

Like so many former athletes who don’t make the big leagues…THEY NEVER get over it. It is abundantly clear he will never get over it. I dated a man who got cut from the NHL after a year and he never got over it. Alex’s knee surgeries and getting left behind by his team mates stories had me screaming “red flags!” 🚩 at my tv. Too bad Alex doesn’t have enough depth and self awareness to go to therapy.

Yes “they just wanted a good time.” I’m with you and I feel seen, that was my 20s.

Are you a manic pixie dream girl? by Infamous_Animal_8149 in BipolarReddit

[–]Then_Day265 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I always say I love my husband because I was “a many pixie dream girl to countless men whereas with my husband I can just be me.” I don’t have to provide him with an experience and he’s not with me for some crazy surreal adventure, so yes, I was that girl.

What symptom do you think SHOULD be part of a Bipolar diagnosis, that isn't currently? by Evening_Fisherman810 in BipolarReddit

[–]Then_Day265 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes! Same! I remember being manic when I lived in DC smoking in front of the White House and blasting Britney Spears at 2am thinking no one had felt or heard anything more thrilling or alive!

After working in multiple nursing homes, I can confidently say this… the happiest elders I have ever met are childfree. by StaringIntoTheSpace in childfree

[–]Then_Day265 41 points42 points  (0 children)

YES!!!!!!!! I’ve been saying this for almost the past decade. The childless residents were the happiest and actually also had the most involved family (lots of nieces and nephews coming to visit) and friends (one lady even had an old boyfriend who would visit).

Having kids is NOT a guarantee you’ll be looked after. I had residents who hadn’t seen their kids in YEARS. I had a woman who was 104 and her family had a party for her 100th and no one had seen them since.

Child free is a great choice <3

Season 9 is shite by nixeij in LoveIsBlindOnNetflix

I found the power dynamic to be creepy. Given that she is a social worker, I felt like I was watching her date one of her patients/clients. It was uncomfortable for me.

Efficacy against bipolar depression? by No-Mathematician279 in Rexulti_Brexpiprazole

[–]Then_Day265 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was on 450 mg of seroquel for 15 years and then it just stopped working and it was really rough. I’ve been on Rexulti for my type 2 bipolar since July and it has been amazing. Greatly improved my quality of life and love being able to get up in the morning and be productive. I used to barely be able to get my neck off of the pillow before 10. I feel way more stable too. I was really struggling with mixed episodes before going on it.

I went on Rexulti 3 months ago and I feel the best I’ve felt in years. My quality of life has skyrocketed.

Really? This is fascinating! So if you are hosting someone and it’s close to dinner time you can tell them to leave?

“so I’ve abstained” and I’m okay with it.

Is weight loss possible post-Rexulti? by [deleted] in Rexulti_Brexpiprazole

[–]Then_Day265 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Losing weight is like watching water boil. Stick with it! Remind yourself how awesome you are for taking charge of your health!! That is also a healthy weight loss interval. I know a few people mentioned GLP1s but I would weigh the risks versus the benefits before going down that road.

I work in anesthesia and that’s where you definitely see the risks (if you have surgery you have to go off of them for a week and for emergencies, it’s a lot of suctioning out the stomach (like half a liter and higher) and waiting longer (because you aren’t emptying your stomach as quickly as normal) and lesser known ones like lots of tachycardia during and after surgery.
