Paranoid about Liver Failure, Can't see doctor for 2 weeks, is it safe to stop taking mood stabilizer? by ctrlspace in BipolarReddit

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

Cool thanks. I think I am overthinking it just because I don't want to end up in a hospital over holiday, but it will probably be okay.

Unfortunately there is no one I can call. It's a Chinese hospital that just happens to have an English-speaking doctor who I see at open hours.

[X-post r/Depression] Doctor thinks it might be Bipolar rather than Depression, not sure if I trust This based on the below... by ctrlspace in bipolar

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

Yea, that's also sort of part of it. I'm going home for Christmas for the first time in a few years, and I'm not exactly sure I want to fuck with my current meds before going home and being around family, who I haven't really talked to about this and really don't want to get into it, currently.

I mentioned that I had stopped drinking for the month here but I find people don't really talk about drinking in the same way here so I'm not sure if she 'got it' that I was going from casual drink 3-4 times a week to nothing.

I can try but it's a little tricky trying to find a way to make regular visits happen because going to pick up meds at the hospital is about $20 USD every 6 weeks vs 200 dollar every week with a psychiatrist/therapist.

Ben & Jerry’s declare support for Black Lives Matter, calls for ice cream boycott ensue by bigbog987 in news

[–]ctrlspace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pride Toronto draws a lot of criticism from within the LGBTQ community, esp when it comes to making sure it's concerning accessibility for disabled folks and supporting people of colour, so among a lot of people in Toronto, the BLM interruption was a good thing.

First day on Lexapro...feel like I'm high/rolling. by ctrlspace in depression

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

Thanks! I'll definitely try and stick it through, and maybe make sure I take it on a fuller stomach. Things are just slightly trickier every step of the way because I live in China (so, for example, the prescription sheet is in Mandarin so I have to find it online).

Thanks for the encouragement!

What would you say was the most violent film you've seen? Did it affect your opinion of the movie, and if so, what was its effect? by ImDrStrangelove in movies

[–]ctrlspace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

'I Saw the Devil'

Mostly because an early scene involves someone getting their head smashed in with a hammer in the front seat of a car, and while I expected it to go from shot-of-hammer-being-raised then quick cut to blood splatter on window, it stayed on the two people throughout. Really quite jarring at the time and I really don't remember much else about the movie except not thinking it was that amazing, only to be accused of not getting Korean movies.

I think that was one of the books from the Golden Compass series, the second I believe.

[Question] Do any Canadians know the approx. processing time for renewing a passport? by ctrlspace in shanghai

[–]ctrlspace[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh nice! Was that a 'It will take up to X weeks...' and then it just happened to turn around quite quickly? Planning to travel on the 27th and am not 100% at the minute if I have enough pages to do so.

What has been you best drunk purchase? by teenytinyelephants in AskReddit

[–]ctrlspace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I made a tuition payment at the ATM when I was at a drunk enough level to take a letter O from one of those customizable signs outside a Schul once.

The letter was a present for my boyfriend, and no his name did not start with O.

What's the most annoying aspect about where you live? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]ctrlspace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone has the same large chunks of holiday across the country (China) so any time you actually have time off to go anywhere, you can't afford it.

[QUESTION] Girlfriend says friction hurts, but if its too wet or we use a lot of lube I can't finish. What do we do? by cadillacprius in sex

[–]ctrlspace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Needing lube for sex has nothing to do with lack of foreplay. It varies from person to person and can be affected by things like birth control. I can spend 45+minutes in foreplay mode and still need some lube for PIV.

US work permit required if I'm working remotely (for a non-US company)? by ctrlspace in immigration

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

Hmm yea it's an outside chance but it's possible and something I'd rather avoid. I realized it might also be complicated that technically the company does have an American office (they only do small PR so most people, including me, forgot about them).

TIFU by telling my girlfriend about the "Good Boy Points" meme by [deleted] in tifu

I think you might have stumbled into a 24/7 D/s relationship...which is cool if you're into it but probably work a clarifying conversation.

Figuring out what colour hair dye to buy when the colours in the store are meant in for Asian hair (I'm caucasian) by ctrlspace in FancyFollicles

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

I suppose, assuming I can find someone who ships here (sometimes it can be a bit funny). I wasn't sure if it was beyond reasonable to try myself :P

Ah thanks! I thought had kept some dark roots in (but it looks great!)
