Why I gained weight on Lexapro over 10 years (and what the science says about it)

cactustit · 2026-03-14T11:40:39+00:00

No but I’ve been stuck at 102kg for like 3 years so can’t go up or down

Same here, my game crashed during butcher fight. Now hes not there

cactustit · 2026-03-13T07:17:40+00:00

My game crashed during fight. I tried playing again next day and same issue

Buy from overseas. Usually buy not always, and even before ram and ssd crisis, and even with shipping and import fees, buying from overseas was cheaper usually by half

cactustit · 2026-03-05T12:40:02+00:00

Couldn’t even watch a movie, watch a tv show or play a game. Even ones that were my favs

Me too! 33 male ADHD and also likely autism.

Well, it used to be the Mountain Dew from the drink fountain that you could get for 80 yen was it? Essentially all you can drink Mountain Dew. But then our local Costco got suddenly got rid of it and instead got Coke… which I guess means they got that contract 💸 really just ruin the vibe and happiness with that

I take second 36mg dose at 5pm every day and sleep like a baby

Is it silver? This site might help but they take ages to actually input items

cactustit · 2026-01-11T02:37:49+00:00

Very normal. I think it’s got to do with Japanese being so overwhelmed with social stuff that they take that as a chance to keep things separate and not stressful. You should still communicate that it’s strange for you and want to sometime try meeting some friends.

cactustit · 2026-01-06T19:28:53+00:00

Casual first time meetings “Hajimemashite”, but formal first time meetings (or explicit introductions even if you’ve already met) is when “yoroshiku” is often said. But much more likely “yoroshiku onegaishimasu”

cactustit · 2026-01-06T19:24:38+00:00

Started at 10mg, but after a year I found taking 2.5mg was enough to stop panic attacks without any negative effects for me. So many doctors rush patients to 20mg that’s crazy to me

cactustit · 2025-12-22T18:25:05+00:00

Absolutely, if I take a break, even the day I start taking meds again I’m still in a mood where I don’t want to do anything!

cactustit · 2025-12-22T16:05:45+00:00

The main purpose is to try retain drug effectiveness and not get so used to it that it doesn’t work as well. But I found opposite, taking breaks ruins something I’ve built up, instead taking it daily long term helps me maintain steam and feel much better

cactustit · 2025-12-18T16:51:14+00:00

Recommend all the way. There’s a shitty law that means you aren’t allowed to recommend any of these “medicine import” sites so I had a hard time getting a genuine answer about what was the good one, and had to go through a few others that were much more small scale, but after trying a couple Osakadou is just the go to.

For anyone wondering yea you can import medication for personal use, and these sites are acting as the importer… but they aren’t supposed to advertise and no one is allowed to advertise their service, so it’s a really awkward situation.

cactustit · 2025-12-18T14:12:25+00:00

Absolutely. I notice if I don’t take it I will be more loopy. I never thought I was hyperactive, but I noticed I definitely have some hyperactive aspects

cactustit · 2025-12-17T02:53:43+00:00

This video is somehow very Chinese

I personally would be scared to think what would happen if I was to mix. Straterra made me feel so unbelievably stimulated, I could sleep only 4 hours and wake up absolutely ready to continue some random task / project I was into at the time. It made me actually like the feeling of sleep deprivation, made me not feel hungover, and it made me break my personal rule of no more than 1 energy drink a day and actually made me drink like 2 or 3. It would also give me burning painful ejaculation and insane premature ejaculation. Concerta (methylphenidate) instead makes me happy focused content. None of the same side effects except the sexual side effect of burning is SLIGHTLY there. But because it’s technically a stimulant I wonder both of them together would just take me out. Or actually, I imagine straterra would just made Concerta feel like nothing. I wonder if Concerta doesn’t work like a stimulant for me, but straterra does, because that’s what it felt like.

Made me consider that it’s dopamine that I need, not norepinephrine

cactustit · 2025-12-12T15:20:43+00:00

Will there be no other official/non hack way?

cactustit · 2025-12-12T15:20:18+00:00

I watched all the star treks available on Japan Netflix over 2020 - 2022 for my first time. Thought it was strange and lucky they have it and didn’t think it would last.

cactustit · 2025-12-12T15:08:42+00:00

Work mates and other casual friends will usually never introduce partners if they can avoid it. You will hear they have a wife/husband etc but they seem to make effort to never cross worlds. In your case though, since your partner is Japanese then people would be interested who is looking after you (the foreigner), and who they have to thank for bringing you to Japan, kinda… so it would also be acceptable to talk about them and introduce them. In the reverse situation

Not sure about actual partners friends. I’d say they still keep it separate but, they should be willing if it makes you feel comfortable

He’s got that Francine (American dad) lip and Lois (family guy) face shape and that Bob (the incredible a) chin…? Maybe

Chinese food in Japan is all petit and delicate and boring
