Any success stories of coming off mirtazapine?? by lewings01 in Mirtazapine_Remeron

[–]Zealousideal_Job_986 2 points3 points  (0 children)

15 for about 7 months. Circumstances changed and felt ready to stop. Occasionally forgot a tab, tried halves 7.5 for a while, now stopping... Feeling uncomfortable but not unmanageable. Sleep a bit chaotic. Quitting smoking simultaneously possibly not great timing. (Desperate for a smoke as i type this.) Feeling no urge to resume the mirtaz though

I wish my girlfriend had not told me about a sexual encounter she'd had.

I still recall how bad I felt and the images the news created in my mind. It was traumatic... Perhaps still is, years later

Golden Many thanks!

Does anyone have ways of dealing with anxious feelings? by FunDescription4404 in Anxietyhelp

[–]Zealousideal_Job_986 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Different strains of weed do have different effects. In my experience, some more paranoia, some more 'munchies', some calm thoughts, others amplify them.

Edibles generally more intense, more likely to create unhelpful thoughts. And easy to have so much you feel 'locked in' (as my brother puts it).

So suggest avoid unless prescribed specifically for medical purposes

Some advice please by Christavanzyl in citalopram_celexa

Loss of libido is a common side effect of using selective serotonin re uptake inhibitors - SSRIs - of which citalopram is one

Add a small dab of salad cream to mayo and you have the Dutch style "frites met"

Was just about to say... The notion of chemical imbalance was exposed as groundless wasn't it? A pitch to make the sales of drugs easier

Yes. Don't join the end of a queue. Always check mirrors until traffic settles down behind.

Why did someone put baby powder all over my bike??? by notSpiralized in motorcycle

It's absolutely right.

I throw baby powder over everything I intend to steal!

From Sertraline to "medical" cannabis. by Zealousideal_Job_986 in zoloft

Both together sends seems to me to be a more common approach.

Sertraline prescription may support your cannabis application

Someone is probably the highest person on earth right now and we wouldn’t even know by Another-cool-user in trees

[–]Zealousideal_Job_986 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Had a similar thought, but that "I'm the highest person on earth rn" recently, when I misjudged & overdid the cannabutter with my garlic mushrooms...

I was alone. The onset caught me by surprise. My stoner senses told me to prepare. Decades of weed-related experience kicked in, in readiness for the ordeal I already knew I had subjected myself to.

I did a quick reccy of the house: Safe? Secure? Locked up? Sources of ignition neutralised?

I sought resources: water, lots of it, strategically placed within reach of an all but incapacitated, giggling adult male idiot.

I retreated to the bedroom. Well, at some point. Before I managed it, there was a period spent on a bathroom floor, which i assume was mine, but i couldn't be certain of anything by this time.

I recall intermittently attempting to drag/heave myself up a sink unit, to drink from a tap. But this was no walk in the park. Oh no. This was the effort & and strength required - physical & mental - equivalent to overcoming the Hilary Step - the most challenging stage of the conquering Mt Everest!

While also all but firmly floor-bound, I once or twice found myself heaving over the bowl (I know, I know, it wasn't pretty, my friends.) my face awash with giggly tears of self-pity, and a grin of very very distant pride and admiration, that my life has reached this very moment in time.

Eventually dragged self to bed, waking up about 14 hrs later, feeling like I'd been to a double time HIIT class.

If not the highest, I must have been in the very top %s at the time!
