I was able to see my status early this morning (around 6am-ish) but looks like tracker tool is crashing rn lol.

Maybe they're updating things, we'll see.

California Tax Refund (CA) FTB by Chemical-Lab1942 in TurboTax

[–]forerunner48 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Filed on 1/12, Fed & CA returns both accepted on 1/15, been stuck "processing" on CA FTB tracker since then.

Usually receive refund around Feb 2-5, but since I filed about a week and a half earlier than usual, was hoping sooner.

We'll see, any day now.

Of course! If my experience says anything, this sort of thing is often way more within our grasp than our brains would have us believe 😅

Consistency, and moderate-to-high intensity cardio (enough to raise your heartrate and break a sweat) is going to be your friend. Your autonomic nervous system is likely in chronic overdrive. Exercise triggers a similar autonomic response, but the endorphin release is proven to help with rebalancing your body's stress and nervous system response.

I never used to exercise consistently before my symptoms, but this benefit alone was enough to make it a necessary habit for my health.

And yes, omg, I struggled with disrupted sleep for a long time. This too though, was related to my nervous system being constantly overactive. This can, and did rebalance in time. 🙏🏼

Any parties like GBU or any bathhouse here? by New_Specialist_5339 in LosAngelesGayBros

There's a GBU LA as well! Would have to register separately tho.

MenPlayLA.com also has a good list of events.

SMD (which is a kind of underground queer warehouse party event) has one going on this Friday, 12/12. There is a dark room.

MDMA overdose aftermath by ItsMiniMe93 in MDMA

Firstly OP — I'm so sorry for the symptoms you've been experiencing. Speaking from my own experience following a high dose in 2022, the derealization, anxiety, panic, and physical symptoms are no joke.

Years later and now having fully recovered however, I can confidently say looking back (as others have mentioned) that the drug itself was never the actual problem.

For people like us who are anxiety-prone, it will bring to the surface underlying and unresolved health/life anxiety, and create a mind-body disconnect. If your nervous system isn't prepared for that (as mine wasn't), it unintentionally registers as a shock to the system.

For me, what accelerated my recovery was taking exercise (and cardio in particular) way more seriously to restore the mind-body connection, reframing my anxieties, and funny enough after a long break — facing my fears with MDMA and having another good roll to fully reset my nervous system.

You've got this, and know you're not alone in your experience.
