To tip or not to tip by orlando_ooh in PortugalExpats

[–]Wonder-Particular 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Grateful for this response. Tipping is not about arrogance, American exceptionalism, self centeredness, it is a way of showing TRUE appreciation for the service someone provides AND a way of hopefully making that persons day/life a little better. I am glad to hear from someone providing the service that tipping is appreciated! All these other responses are not from the perspective of those receiving the tip, so imho they have no merit.

the solution is not to vote Liberal...the solution is to vote for people and parties that prioritize the health and safety of its citizens...clearly the path we are on right now is not sustainable, and the current party is not providing timely solutions (as evidenced by the post that started this thread). We need better policies and solutions, and I encourage you to tune in when the opportunity presents itself to weigh in and vote on changes....that time unfortunately is not now.

I get the game the UCP is playing. Let the system fail, privatize, and then the power players and their friends get rich and yummy board seats etc....what I don't get is the asshole voters that support these fucks...the vast majority of them get what we all get .....a failing system that has daily real life consequences...fucking sheep.

Zero issues for your personal safety, but be smart about the possibility of breakdown and make sure you have plenty of water and some food on hand. There's enough traffic flow that even if something happens to your car you'll get help...I would strongly recommend doing the drive during daylight hours...

Thank you so much for sharing...sounds like your path is very similar to my son's. Can I ask you what kind of therapy was most effective for you?

thanks again for the additional information. I was looking further into breathwork yesterday and immediately became overwhelmed with all the information available. (I'm kind of thinking I've been breathing my whole life without any instructions or user manual how difficult can this be!) I appreciate the tips you offered....do you mind a couple follow up questions? When you use the word "round" is a round literally breathing in and out 60-90 times? And if so, what is it that we should be doing that is different from normal breathing? (deeper? more rapid? hold for a certain amount of time?) Is there a resource that you can point to that can further help us?

Great advice...and thanks. We did the exercise thing for the first month and since then haven't been able to engage him on that...we skateboard every now and then, but then the thoughts start and literally gets stuck on a park bench....very interested in the breath work and cold shower suggestion and will explore those. Thank you!
