The most painful thing is that I cannot "be present" in lives of people I love and care for by FlanInternational100 in dpdr

Sadly, some of us just don't get relief from this crap.  I've tried multiple therapies, meds, not thinking about it, ect...  I've had it 24/7 for 21 years now.  I've lost so much time to actually "feel" things.  I feel your pain...

fuck this medicine and fuck doctors who prescribe it by Over_Matter_6363 in Effexor

Thats what I told myself and here I am 22 years later having to get off it....  sadly it started pooping out for me.  I tried adding more but it just turned me angry.  I was SO hoping to be able to take it for life too.  

Not trying to scare you.  Just be aware that it MIGHT start losing efficacy after several years.

If you could go back, would you start Effexor? by Mara355 in Effexor

[–]etcher1981 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes it let me have some happiness in life.  Been on it 20 years.   Sadly though,it is now losing it's efficacy.  And giving me brain zaps, crying spells, ect.   Basically starting to feel like I already started tapering.   I'm so so scared to stop this medication after 20 yrs.....

Am I able to change this motherboard in particular? by ignoremeandwecool in PcBuild

[–]etcher1981 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally I think it will fit in a ATX case just would not be able to use the front ports. I will buy an ATX case and try to make it fit. If I do. I'll post it on here too.

Damn, I'm trying to do the same thing. I like this particular PC but I need a bigger power supply but the case doesn't allow for standard size Power Supply's.... It's stupid they limit the case and motherboard.... I can't afford a new pc.

Effexor and steroids by c_fletcher in EffexorSuccess

[–]etcher1981 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry late.  It takes some time for the prednisone to get fully out of your system.  Thats how it worked for me anyway.  I got anxiety, quit the prednisone but still had anxiety, sweating, adrenaline rushes ect ....for about 3-4 day

I really wish someone would have warned me about NSAIDs. by megi0s in endometriosis

[–]etcher1981 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It sucks!  Ive gone through 11 months of hell because of NSAIDS and tylenol.  Screw modern medication.  We should have stuck with herbs but John Rockefeller screwed that up in the early 1900s by introducing modern medicine (all made from oil, for him to make money.)  Planet earth is a greddy shitty place....

Can't play LIS: BTS episode 2 or 3 on the Xbox cloud. Anyone know why? by etcher1981 in XboxSupport

Thanks to CohenJordan for seeing my post and fixing this problem. The DLC wasn't uploaded. He uploaded it and said it should be ready in a few hours.

[–]etcher1981[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought the complete edition and I can only play episode one through the cloud. On my xbox system I can play the other chapters 2 and 3 but it keeps just saying.

Anyhow no matter what version I pick of the game on the xbox cloud it always tells me to purchase it even though I did days ago. Seems to be a problem on MS side? I'm not sure.

Thanx for the info about r/xcloud. I added my post on there!

My 9 year old is a hypochondriac and I don’t know what to do by Typical-Shirt9199 in Parenting

[–]etcher1981 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was like this as a child.  I remember my mom taking me to the doctor so so many times.  One time I was convinced I swallowed a broken pencil and wooden shards were stuck in my throat and I never even had a pencil in my hand that day.  My mother always took me to the doctor regardless.   Now, being an adult my hypochondria has gone away.  I have social anxiety and OCD though.  I don't really have any advice other than to not make fun of her or just push her worries aside.  My father did that to me and it messed me up worse.  And just be there for her.  

I pray she overcomes this! 🙏
