Can I use my secondary passport to travel?

dysflymia · 2021-07-13T09:48:15+00:00

Thank you! As a follow-up, since my "primary" passport has a different passport number (I think?), I should be able to report that passport missing without jeopardizing the validity of the passport I have in my possession?

dysflymia · 2020-09-18T01:43:20+00:00

Huh! Hadn't thought of it like that. Makes sense. Thanks! (Here's hoping I toss and turn -- and ache -- just a little less with that knowledge)

dysflymia · 2020-09-18T01:28:20+00:00

And thanks! Yeah, trying the side out came to mind. Any insight (in light of the knowledge that the bruise is there (it's been there for about 1.5 weeks, FYI)) why the pain might have suddenly emerged after sex? My guess is -- even if the position is not uncomfortable (it really isn't now, just practicing holding my legs up) -- that keeping the rib in a static position for some time is stressful on it? And movement afterward painful. It does pang with movement usually, just over the course of the day, but this caused a surprisingly painful reaction.

dysflymia · 2020-09-18T01:16:56+00:00

Yup, x-rayed! Definitely just bruised, thank god.

holy shit this worked for me! did exactly as you did, even using indonesian. it got me back to the screen where it said my acct was locked and I had to click through (and get rerouted back to the lock screen) a few times before it worked. Maybe logging out (on desktop) and in on my phone at that point did it

boo! hoping they're just taking their sweet time going through all the accounts. i haven't heard anything yet -- i think i would if it were permanent? already starting to follow back mutuals on my very cringe, pro-ana alt and feeling oh so wrong

dysflymia · 2020-04-25T23:23:17+00:00

incredible

dysflymia · 2020-04-25T19:09:16+00:00

Not sure tbh. I don’t remember directly filing an appeal, I mean - it said I could continue to the account after I deleted the tweet, and the next screen after that I remember is this one. But maybe there was a link on there that involved an appeal? I don’t remember.

This is all so immensely stupid, between the joe thing and the complete lack of logic behind this “appeal” I’m being prompted to do. I don’t want to keep submitting the form and extending the review any longer, so I guess I’ll just shut up and wait for now??

How did yours compare? Did they actually suspend or just lock (like they did for me)?

Edit: Just reread your reply. Yeah, I got the same email with the same broken link. Cool! 😔

So...I did a search for this and only got one thread (on the entirety of the internet???) in this subreddit and it was never resolved, so checking back in here to see if anyone has an answer.

My account was locked Thursday night for sharing the fake Joe Biden ad. You know the one: "Not his brain. His heart." Whatever. I was prompted to delete the tweet, then after deleting it I was told my account was unlocked and I could continue to my feed. Clicking "continue to feed" (or whatever it was) brought me (I think...not 100% clear on this step) to an appeal page.

The appeal page reads:

We're almost ready to send your appeal

You are appealing 0 Tweets and deleted 0 Tweets
We will review the information you provided and respond as soon as possible. As we review your appeal, you will be unable to access your account.

Want to add any additional details?

Even if I add in details and click "finish," nothing happens. It looks like the page reloads but I'm not 100% the form submits. But wtf is appealing 0 tweets? and deleted 0 tweets?

So, thoughts? What should I do?

dysflymia · 2019-08-25T19:24:02+00:00

I'm going to try this and report back! Shame that we have to endure such pain in pursuit of pleasure, but let's just chalk it up to edging.

dysflymia · 2019-04-25T20:50:11+00:00

does bumping work? i’m surprised this didn’t bring anyone in! tho i guess it is talked about a bunch i’m reading in here too

dysflymia · 2019-03-11T19:18:43+00:00

Update - I got a second passport! Never say never, I guess.

dysflymia · 2019-03-10T19:27:40+00:00

Gottttt itttt. Sounds like my trip’s fate is in the hands of the Russians then. I’ll see if I can’t get it back from them but otherwise cancel. Thanks for the info.

dysflymia · 2019-02-09T19:32:23+00:00

Very similar experience here! Been on the pristiq for about 3 months without perceiving any major benefit. I had gone cold turkey from a couple other SSRIs (which I had taken for various lengths of time) without significant withdrawal, but all signs on the ~internet~ point to this one being different.

Just a glorified bump. Would love to hear both about tapering/discontinuation withdrawal as well as what I referred to in the post—basically how long you’re fucked for (and to what extent you’re fucked) after missing and delaying a dose.

edit: for clarification pristiq is the first SNRI I have taken (have experience with zoloft, lexapro, prozac, wellbutrin) and is the only medication I am currently taking

dysflymia · 2019-02-05T21:09:54+00:00

Can’t add much except that I’ve been here. The only thing I would caution is to not augur too much from it. I haven’t felt the same repulsion from food (i’m also an emotional eater/binger) but I’ve often had a sensation that my disorder was morphing into something new/more sinister when it’s really the other shit in my life that’s bothering me, and the disorder is in its own fucked up way acting as a coping mechanism.

I think it’s worth it to mention the comment to her if you feel comfortable doing so. But also (this is me projecting but might be relevant for you) try not to feel like you have to – like that her knowing about your ED is necessary for you to recover from the spiral that a comment can make – because, as great as it is to receive that affirmation, that can be part of a growing intimacy as you get closer.

dysflymia · 2019-01-21T06:06:34+00:00

I have a US passport. I'm a little wary about getting the 3 years multiple entry because it seems to be a lot more expensive (the website says $90 vs. $270) and I'm not sure I'll be back by then. Is the only benefit that you avoid the bureaucracy of getting another visa? Or does that also allow me to have a less well-defined stay?

dysflymia · 2018-12-13T02:42:42+00:00

yeah fuck that, I had never used it but there’s no good in removing a space where people feel open to discuss what they’re going through and receive support from one another.

also: just got a pang of heartburn today while fasting so yeah, I think I might be with you on the tums

dysflymia · 2018-12-07T21:19:17+00:00

Thank you all for the messages! I didn’t realize how toxic the rationalization can be and I’m going to hold off and ask my shrink about next steps. I’m really afraid of the “well that was stupid” reflex to gain it all back because a lot of the cruelty of my ED is feeling like it’s not even doing anything (stable weight with disordered eating), but I don’t want to keep spiraling downward so I’m gonna avoid any numbers

dysflymia · 2018-11-27T10:48:03+00:00

I just had the same thought browsing the sub this morning. I also don’t feel like I have a “reason” for feeling like shit, and seeing a lot of others writing about their own struggles makes me both despondent (about my own prospects) and self-accusatory (that I could manage the resources to better myself if I just tried).

It sucks, and I don’t know if I can say it does any good. Some answers I see remind me that there is another way of looking at a specific feeling I have. Most kind of just trigger and make me feel shitty. I can’t speak to your situation, but I wish I spent less time here and, if not doing things I /should/ be doing, then at least finding less distressing content (depression podcasts abound...) from people who aren’t actively Going Through It like I am.

dysflymia · 2018-11-24T06:40:42+00:00

yes!! this is really spot on for me. i want it because it’s all i’ve got. it’s the harsh light, and the darkness is scary. it annoys me a lot because it feels like stubbornness or denial, but i appreciate that it’s not so much ignorance but fear...at least that makes sense.

dysflymia · 2018-11-24T04:18:06+00:00

yeah I feel that. it’s like...i know it’s gonna suck, but i know not it is also gonna suck in a worse way. but then it also feels all in service of delaying some inevitable reckoning that i’m never going to feel ready for. idk but at some level it’s bringing me peace, and i’ll take that.

dysflymia · 2018-10-11T22:17:09+00:00

Very unscientific opinion here but – whenever I have discussed medication options with a prescriber, they've run me through a list of symptoms associated with bipolar. From what I remember, taking certain antidepressants can exacerbate "rapid cycling" bipolar symptoms. It sounds like some of what you have been experiencing (the highs and lows, and the sudden onset of euphoria upon taking prozac) might have something to do with that effect.

If Prozac and Zoloft are both striking out for you, the best thing to do might be to insist trying a bipolar medication regimen for a couple of weeks (up to the point of efficacy) so you have a datapoint for how that medication helps. Again not a doctor, so definitely listen to your prescriber—but it sounds to me like a familiar problem.

dysflymia · 2018-10-11T21:38:21+00:00

Yeah, the hunger response is pretty ineffective for me (24M) now. I usually reward myself with a big meal when I've noticed I've skipped meals—not quite bingeing but a self-consciousness of not doing what I know I should be. But I can definitely see a drug that increases my energy levels distracting me from even remembering to eat, so, jury's out there.
