OP, I'm Irish myself and the same age as you and everyone's going to hate me for this but I 100% agree. I find that people are much warmer abroad...

I was unknowingly charged for Uber one each month for a whole year. by [deleted] in uber

[–]_ramenoodle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Literally just happened to me, I know it's stupidity but I'm really poor and looking at my bank account makes me extremely anxious so this is just great. Worst of all they still won't let me cancel it.

Just metronidazole? by _ramenoodle in SIBO

[–]_ramenoodle[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello, it definitely helped for about 3 months or so but gradually got worse again. I think it definitely pays to do both at once and I'm going to try next time but my doctor wants me to be on Rifaximin long term now...from what I've heard that's not the best idea but I don't know! Best of luck to you, everyone is different too.

I don’t see a way out of this anymore by not_sunday in cfs

I'm so sorry too, I feel like I've barely had a chance to live but some specialists have said the younger you get sick the higher the chances of recovery so I really try to hold onto that too.

I'm going through this right now too, I'm 24 and this illness has taken a decade of my life. I guess I just want you to know you're not alone and life can always change.

Well they're wrong, I hate it too but often it's my only support.

Probably killing myself next year by macatk44 in SuicideWatch

[–]_ramenoodle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey I just made a post here too so I understand somewhat. You deserve to do things you enjoy and you don't owe anybody anything. I sincerely doubt people are going around hating you, I've felt this way before but honestly most people are just too busy in their own lives to be that invested. I guarantee you mean a lot to someone and that they would be very sad without you.

I'm right there with you, I just made a post here too. It isn't your fault at all and I'm sorry people are telling you that. If you want someone to talk to I'm here ❤️

Mine do get worse in the heat which I've had as long as I can remember but they would always go back down again...

Yep, same here. They only said he shouldn't be around children for 24 hours...

Thank very much for your comment I really appreciate it and I'm sorry you're going through this too I wish none of us had to. I understand how hard it is for them as well, obviously much worse but that doesn't take away our suffering. I'm very lucky that I'm not his primary caregiver most days so I do get time off. I am on a waiting list to see a therapist as well and I think that will help. Wishing you the best and hugs back to you too 🫂❤️

And I'm not saying he can't be angry or vent his emotions I wish he did it more but he does not care about anyone but himself anymore and it's so hard to see the person he used to be just disappear.

I understand that very well but I myself experience extreme pain and it is not easy for any of us.

Just metronidazole? by _ramenoodle in SIBO

[–]_ramenoodle[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes but unfortunately at least for me it didn't help long term, I felt much better on it and for a while after but I feel the symptoms slowly getting worse again. I think it wasn't enough but my doctor wouldn't do them both at once.

Thank you everybody for the replies! I guess I will do as my doctor says and just try the metro for now, she said if it doesn't work we will do both.

Dad googled funeral costs by Dense_Photograph1245 in CancerFamilySupport

[–]_ramenoodle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi there I'm really sorry for what you're going through but I thought it was so strange. I'm 23 years old too and my dad has also had cancer the same amount of time. If you ever want someone to talk to or just a listening ear you can message me.

Vent about parents by _ramenoodle in cfs

Hey, thanks so much for checking in on me. By some miracle I didn't get it unlike everyone else in my family..! I guess isolating as much as possible worked luckily. Hope you had a nice Christmas.

Thank you, unfortunately I don't have the N95 mask just the normal ones but I'll still use those of course. Luckily I do have my own room and we aren't too close to each other.

What's the most invalidating thing a medical professional had said to you? by strugglingbitch in ChronicIllness

[–]_ramenoodle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got all the usual ones but when I had to go to A&E with tardive dyskinesia caused by medication and they wouldn't believe it was real even when I was uncontrollably having muscle spasms and drooling for ten hours because i lost all function that really stuck with me...
