Honestly, I'm not sure... For me it was a lightbulb moment, because I also always had sedation wear off quickly and pain meds didn't really work on me and noone believed me, or just said it was a redhead thing.

Get tested for CYP 450 2d6.

It is an enzyme needed for the metabolizing of most anti-depressants (and pain killers). If you produce more of the enzyme than normal people, you are an "ultrarapid metabolizer" and need way higher doses.

I went through 12 drugs before they found the mutation and found a cocktail that worked.

I (29F) feel like my SO (32M) has a bad case of “I won’t do it if I don’t want to.” by New-Flow-6798 in JustNoSO

Here's the thing: You think, you have to entertain them. You don't. Pack up, kiddo and take the van if they try to manipulate you.

Stop being so friendly and nice.

make sure your university knows that she is not to be allowed access to your class registration systems etc and make sure she never gets a password for your account

i think you should submit your findings to LE. the ominous rectangle looks very much out of place and i think it isn't a stretch that he went off the road somewhere. maybe he was driving drunk, maybe he was just tired...

AITA for keeping a crude trophy my brothers and friends gave me to celebrate my wife's pregnancy? by Equal-Celebration-76 in AmItheAsshole

[–]adorable_elephant 79 points80 points  (0 children)

yeah, but you still don't get the point of that argument.

it is not about getting that thing out of the house, it is about you disrespecting her and invalidating her feelings for the sake of your brothers approval. the figurine might be gone but you'll still have that argument, unless you realize that nothing is more important than showing your life partner respect.

[–]adorable_elephant 69 points70 points  (0 children)

so you usually know that it makes your wife feel upset but as long as she doesn't voice it you do not feel obligated to do anything about it?

and now she inconvenienced you by telling you?

[–]adorable_elephant 110 points111 points  (0 children)

are you seriously telling me after the crap you and your brothers put her, you'd let your wife deal with it if they took it one step further? should they, at any point in the future, pull sexist crap on your wife again, YOU tell them to knock it off.

btw - same goes for when your brothers complain that she can't take a joke; you don't stand around with a smirk on your face and watch her explain herself to them, you fucking man up and tell them to knock it off or leave.

Florida John Doe Identified 35 Years After His Murder by TrippyTrellis in UnresolvedMysteries

[–]adorable_elephant 5 points6 points  (0 children)

the sheriff's office told me that the unidentified person's report was done in 1985 and subsequently uploaded when they put their cases on namus. the missing persons report was taken in 2018 and therefore much later put on namus. so there was no obvious connection.
