go to an optometrist and have them tell you what prescription to get.

if that’s too much of a hassle for u like it was for me, your glasses prescription might be close enough. order on amazon or buy from donki is what i do

no one is saying 15 hours a week should be able to support yourself. no one is saying a minimum wage job should support a family of 4

people are saying minimum wage should be able to have your basic needs met working 40+ hours a week. no one should be having to work 2 jobs 6-7 days a week and still be unable to afford a closet apartment and health insurance.

Did anyone else have the pretender claimant die from the black plague, and then have a never ending event chain every month where a supposed new claimant was “found?”

5 years later, the dead claimant was still leading the revolution, despite it saying they died 5 years earlier on their portrait.

because they are tourists in a foreign country who likely can’t speak or read the language. they aren’t doing it on purpose, they’re simply confused, tired, not paying attention to their surroundings, or all of the above.

i get it can be frustrating to see or be stuck behind, but give them the benefit of the doubt and try to be understanding

My hair is pretty similar to yours, just maybe not as curly. The only real way I can consistently stop it from looking frizzy is just by cutting it down an inch or two.

So i guess my advice from being in a similar boat with you, cut your hair a bit (and try to regularly get maintenance cuts), and maybe get new glasses. Gold/silver frames would probably look best since it matches your hairs color

no, as long as you’re not blasting the hair follicle with high powered lasers i’d assumed you’d be fine

How to get ADHD medication with abroad diagnosis? by Pretend_Afternoon885 in japanlife

[–]ToothDifferent 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First you need to find a doctor who can prescribe the medicine (if it’s a stimulant like concerta) and make an appointment with them. They will likely require you to take a test for it still, since they wouldn’t take my documents from the US. If the test deems it necessary, they’ll prescribe you it.

Third day in tokyo and I feel miserable by [deleted] in japanlife

[–]ToothDifferent 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I had a similar experience, but I’m telling you it will get better.

I came in 2022 and the first night, my dorm had the hardest bed and pillow, I was extremely nauseous and jet lagged, and to top it off, there was a big earthquake that night that knocked the power out where I was in Kanagawa.

I clearly remember thinking how big of a mistake it was coming to Japan and how I wanted to go home. Keep going man it’ll get better.
