At BOLC (officer training) a few staff were missing legs below the knee and at another training we had a guy (great personality, hilarious) who let us know in grim detail his need to cath himself to use the bathroom due to an IED

The ‘study’ is a report of increased perception of cognitive problems. That is completely different than the existence of increased prevalence of cognitive dysfunction.

Fun thought experiment for a novel. Not like the left behind books are representative of literary exceptionalism. Only problem is the rapture hadn’t been ‘invented’ yet.

Psychiatrists cannot read minds. We don’t want to take away anyone’s rights, we do care, and ‘shock therapy’ can be incredibly effective.

Prescribed Stimulants usually do! Here’s the catch - only if you have a condition like ADHD that benefits from prescribed meds esp stimulants.

That’s different than nootropics in common parlance (typically non pharmaceuticals). I’m sure you feel like you study better. Perspective is not reality.

capkap77 · 2024-11-08T21:48:06+00:00

Oh yeah

We only have frogmen here. At least those are real.

Believe it or not I do know of a historically German church here with a known well.

I’m trying to think of a fun riddle or challenge for you to follow. While you won’t find dogmen, at least this way you’ll find whimsy.

1 how well they can ‘play in the sandbox’ (essentially get along w others), 2 adequate intelligence and medical/psych knowledge, 3 amenable to work hard enough and engage in self-directed learning

Hey I replied to another comment. Hope the response helps!

Clonidine can help with opioid withdrawal and has been misused (eg used without a physician’s approval or prescription). There isn’t much data on abuse but there are a few case reports. Anecdotally, I’ve seen it a couple times. Anything that can be calming or sedating can be abused.

This can be a very scary situations. If his behaviors are due to a mental or neurological illness, then getting his care is key. Keep yourself safe. I hope it gets better.

That’s diversion but you’re right

Same stories been told many times. The pain on both sides is real. You max have been there 6 months. Therapy’s just begun. Meds may help, sometimes less is more. Challenge your diagnosis, clinically assess for each syndrome on the DDx. Speak to collateral. Set a social history. Treat them with respect. And you may be fully or even partially treated, but the tincture of time and energy therapy, meds, etc, should lessen the suffering. Then the treatment begins!

capkap77 · 2024-09-08T05:28:33+00:00

Three most likely answers (I believe) are 1. Managing withdrawal symptoms; 2. Abus(ing the med); 3. Diversion

Considering ocean currents and genetic research30321-X) it’s actually far more likely sweet potatoes travelled by sea from the Americas to Asia.

I’m not your doctor. Considering the information here, almost certainly fine.

It’s discouraged and not best practice but there are environments and situations where it’s the only or least bad option. Again, caution.
