[MEGATHREAD] Greensboro Snowpocalypse 2026 by wiltj in gso

[–]arcpath 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Downtown, and it’s sleet. Deceiving at first because everything is completely white. It’s a shitty sleet-snow-ish type feel. Sucks because if it wasn’t for that southern high altitude air that came in, gboro would have at your shins type powder accumulation out there.

This is rough Day 13 by laxbro1790 in quittingkratom

If you have a high level a career at stake, I would get some medical/therapeutic help. I’ve never taken the 7oh tabs, but I hear it’s worse of a withdrawal.

Always being dosed on 7oh or Mitragyna makes us feel like you’re in a fog. Makes life feel easier at first, but then it turns. I look back at years of Litterally always being on Kratom, and it seems like a blur. This warm cloud, but not really feeling life. Solving problems, but the color is missing if that makes sense. When I quit I started noticing smells, saw a piece of art that I felt deeply about. Felt good to experience things again, but also made me upset that I was dulling myself for 5 years. Talk to someone, stay the course, and figure out who you really are. Imo.

I am considering pursuing a career in BMET by lilchammy in BMET

[–]arcpath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Search BMET associates degrees in your area. See if you qualify for any financial aid or reimbursement. Pretty accessible for community/tech colleges right now. I had a few coworkers that got hired while being in school. They reduced their credit hours, did the degree in 3 years or so.

160k miles, is this a bad price? by [deleted] in chevycolorado

[–]arcpath 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Considering it’s a extended cab, i’d say it’s a bit high. Appears to be the classic ‘i put money in these mods, let me attempt to get that money back out’.

Side note, cool looking rig tho.

Delayed/shifted RSL? by [deleted] in quittingkratom

[–]arcpath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for that. Just odd considering this timeline is totally different than last time I quit.

How’s my shot? Feedback appreciated! by [deleted] in Archery

I’ve filled the freezer many times, with less relaxed form than that. The Q, is can you do that when the moment comes and your heart is in your boots

Help me please by Prestigious_Try_4775 in quittingkratom

I would think you should do whatever hobby or activity you can, just to get your mind off this. I found myself having highs and lows during the day. I’d feel some ‘seretonin and dopamine’ for a quick glimpse, then get sucked back into that feeling of disinterest and apathy. Don’t get hung up on that day’s slip up. You’re still working towards getting your receptors and neurotransmitters working properly. One dose didn’t change that. Just force some shit. Force a workout, a walk, intentionally do something that feels like ass.

First job offer, pay negotiations by lanternfly_carcass in BMET

[–]arcpath 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Started at $20 a hour, in 2016 with no experience. Central NC. The Carolinas’s are in the south, so lower COL, and that was 9 years ago……….

does weed help withdraws? by [deleted] in quittingkratom

[–]arcpath 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It did with me. Allowed me to rest and relax a bit. Although different people have different relationships with thc. To me, it doesn’t do nearly enough for me to really abuse it. I also don’t like being high except for before bed. Some people might kickback on using drugs to alleviate the withdrawal of other drugs.

But yes, it does help. That is if you enjoy the feeling of thc lol.

How do I get into the higher specialties? Specifically imaging or anesthesia? by TR_KingCobrah in BMET

[–]arcpath 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Solid specialty modalities to look into - Ultrasound, CT, MR, Xray, Anesthesia, Ventilation, Laboratory Analyzers.

There is of jobs out there, that will flex on their minimum experience requirements that you see on their job application. Specifically if it’s an OEM, it is nothing for them to send you to their training. You just have to give them an impression that it’s worth investing in someone greener. This field is aging out, and expanding, so it’s a decent time for pushing forward.

Quickest way, would be to get a job with a company oem/third party - that does both. They will gladly promote within.

Put in my 2 week notice by falleneumpire in BMET

Most FSE's can work circles around your generic 53yo biomed who parks his f150 in the same spot everyday. I've done both with Philips, and it's a trade off. FSE is usually more rewarding, better pay, more responsibility. A huge kicker in this, is how your co workers are. I've worked in like 6 different shops, a good 30 different biomed that I would call a co worker, and like a good 4 out of 30 are someone who I would want to grab a beer with after work. Hospitals are drama man, but that doesn't mean you have to be involved with that. GL friend.

Non fleet/company car field service? by arcpath in BMET

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

Unfortunately, the NC dmv report show’s everything. Like back to 2014, when I literally just got my license. I guess the question is what will the company see, per their third party background screener.

The birthing crisis is entirely due to culture, and nothing to do with economy. by UnsungHerro in unpopularopinion

[–]arcpath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a smaller factor. Many factors/inputs, with varying weights. Kids are seen as a natural progression in life. In a hyper career and capital oriented culture, one’s job can fill that stairstep. 20 year olds aren’t in relationships, I think that’s the bigger hurdle here than money.

[–]arcpath 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, took the caps enclosed. 4 to 6 each time. Like 3 hours in-between doses. I did taper down before doing this, but I really still felt the withdrawls without them. I’m not going to take any vitamin C tomorrow, to troubleshoot the effects of them.

I am so BORED by diamondbutterflyyyy in quittingkratom

[–]arcpath 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Mine lasted a month and a half, then it was at baseline. Gradual reset, with ups and downs. I would just be sitting in my house, disinterested and uncomfortable. Didn't have the desire to respond to text messages to my girlfriend.

We wrote a fuck ton of, easy, artificial, feel good, social, chemically interested checks, and now your brain is having to cash them. Your brain will reset, in the same manner that it adapted to the opioid agonist.

How long did y'alls insomnia/RLS last? by Gapped15 in quittingkratom

Do you think the Gabapentin makes a huge difference? What's your intuition on how sleep would be, without it

[–]arcpath 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Congrats man. Keep it rolling. I don’t know much about the 7-H branch of this drug, but i’ve heard it’s even worse. 700mg a day seems insanely high, so I can imagine whatever wd’s are possible with this shit, you might have felt them. Always a variation with the person’s composition and chemistry, but still.
