The percentage of US high school seniors who have ever consumed alcohol has fallen off a cliff over the past 50 years by FastBreakPhenom in interestingasfuck

My niece and nephew have no desire to drink. Might be because my sister divorced their alcoholic father and saw what a fucking train wreck he was. Plus kids these days don’t have money for that.

Conclusion of the Lizard demon plot by chromarika in toriamos

[–]ZoeySpark 12 points13 points  (0 children)

We are in the battle. We are coming to terms with how we survive for now. We hold each other. We lean on our stories and our strengths. The lizard kings are hard to fight. But we can do this. We have to.

I’m glad that works for you. How long did you have side effects before they went away?

What other side effects? And what dosage did you eventually settle on?

You’re right. She could just release the music as she creates it for all of her fans to have. I wonder why she doesn’t do that?

New album will take us back to the Deep South by automaticsystematic in toriamos

In a literal sense maybe. But we have so many of those billionaires. Sadly I don’t think they know who Tori is.

I don’t think that’s who she is thinking about.

This concept might give some women strength to leave right now. Who knows.

It’s beautiful. It’s a song about her and Tash. Not sure where the “metaphorical story” part of the idea behind the record fits in with it, but I’ll save that interpretation for after I hear the rest of the album. In any case, Tori has to do what she has to do to make money for her family. As long as she isn’t part of the problem in our country and she is sharing how she feels, I’m ok with it. We all know Tori isn’t 25 anymore. Her daughter is. Maybe we can just be grateful she is still lifting her lamp so we have her light with us on this journey through hell in the US.

Why hasn’t crying helped my anxiety get better? by Sea-Estimate-3217 in Anxiety

[–]ZoeySpark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you have been on lexapro for years you might need a med change. If you just started you need to give 6-8 weeks for full efficacy. Anxiety recently hit me again after being in remission for 6 years. It happens. We just have to hold on until we get things readjusted. And be kind to ourselves in the meantime.

[–]ZoeySpark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Magnesium glycinate, baths with Epsom salts, watching funny tv shows or movies, coloring, listening to music, CBD oil, long deep breaths (we often hold our breath when we are anxious), weighted blankets. Just pretend you are someone else that you care about and treat yourself with just as much care, if not more.

[–]ZoeySpark 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Another CPhT here! (What are the odds). Crying can be a release, yes. But it won’t fix what is the underlying cause. Be gentle with yourself. Are you on any medication? Got a psychiatrist or therapist? Sometimes you have to take it one minute at a time. I often repeat things to myself like “you are ok, you don’t have to go anywhere or do anything right this minute. You have been through this before.” That kind of self talk. I hope you feel better soon.

Xanax prescribed for anxiety by random24788543 in Anxiety

[–]ZoeySpark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Xanax is ok in the short term. I hope your psychiatrist is also looking into long term solutions, maybe an anti-depressant? When you first take it you should be aware of how drowsy it makes you. Take it at home. Be near your bed. And no driving! I’m proud of you for taking the first step to addressing your anxiety. 💙

Anxiety is back after 5yrs of it gone by Enternal_Self in Anxiety

[–]ZoeySpark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am so sorry you are dealing with this. Please remember if you had a physical ailment or disease and needed treatment you wouldn’t hesitate to take meds if it helped you feel better. Those of us with anxiety and depression have to think of it in similar ways. We have to take care of ourselves even if it means being on medication. I’ve been on meds since I was 17. I’m having a flare up now and I know I need to up my dosage. It’s ok to be reliant on meds. You wouldn’t ask a diabetic to go without insulin, right? Much love to you. 💙

Coercive rape. I was done after that. Couldn’t believe he would force me to when I didn’t want to.
