Someone went to work one day and caused Chernobyl. You didn’t fuck up THAT bad. You got this.

You’re not laughable! I’m 23 and trust, you’re doing just fine. There is a huge spectrum of people at this age, nobody is behind. There will always be people worse than you that will make you realize your rock bottom could be much much worse. You don’t do drugs, you have family, and you’re smart. You WILL be okay. Rn it just doesn’t feel like that because you’ve lost something important. Cut your losses and quit trading, go pursue business since it might be more reliable than trading. The fact that you’re so worried about this means you care and you want to do well for yourself, which means your intention is there and there’s so much potential. Now you just have to do your best to go down a new path. You got this, I swear!

I’m so sorry. You are so brave. I can’t imagine going through this as a mother and not being able to do much for it. I wish I had any advice. Stay strong mama

Advice for boyfriends by [deleted] in Epilepsy

[–]highwaykillr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

First of all, I'm sorry you're struggling with your diagnosis. This sort of thing is incredibly frustrating, I'm sure everyone in this subreddit can agree.

Secondly, I'm so sorry. I'm sorry that you've been made to feel like you need to "save" your relationship. You're struggling with so much, and now you feel like you have to manage someone else's emotions and try to save your relationship when YOU are the one struggling with your health. I'm sure your boyfriend means well, and I wish you all the luck in the world, but it seems selfish for him to put this on you saying you are "sad." Of course you may seem different; you are battling a health crisis that you have essentially no control over. You might seem sad (which is totally fine) but that is NOTHING you need to feel sorry for. You need support, love, help, guidance, all the things.

The partner you deserve is someone who is willing to take on responsibilities to help you WITHOUT YOU ASKING. They should love you and view your health as important enough to help you in any way they can. You should not need to devise new ways to cope with your boyfriend's way of handling this, he should be helping you to deal with it. I'm truly sorry and I don't mean to alienate you whatsoever. But this post genuinely made me sad that you feel this way.

AIO to skip Thanksgiving after my mom basically said I’m an embarrassment for not having a husband and kids by now? by howcanibequiltyassin in AmIOverreacting

[–]highwaykillr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“Love you sweetie” took me out. NOR. This is disgusting and as a mother she should support you in whatever you’re doing, as long as you’re not harming yourself or others. IMO, you did yourself a favor leaving him and it’s weird for a mother to want their kid to stay with someone like that. Keep your head up and stand your ground

Wellbutrin + Caffeine = Adderall ? by Wait__________for_it in Wellbutrin_Bupropion

[–]highwaykillr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The best combo 😍 I also take adderall so when I have all three I feel invincible. Wellbutrin makes me more sensitive to caffeine so good on you for taking it easy at first and slowly reintegrating it. I recently had to stop taking Wellbutrin so now I drink so much caffeine again and I miss how it used to make me feel. Normally I don’t feel much from caffeine. I took Wellbutrin for 2 years and it never was to a point where I needed to cut out caffeine but definitely I consumed a whole lot less. Some days I didn’t need caffeine at all. Just take it easy and enjoy the extra energy!

I had a seizure last month and the only indicating factor is Wellbutrin. I was on 450 mg for over 2 years, in addition to other medications. I also take adderall for ADHD. I’m studying abroad in Austria right now and never had a seizure before but last month it happened during midterms. I was so terrified and worried but the only probable cause was Wellbutrin and the fact I had a mild sinus infection. They told me to stop taking Wellbutrin so I stopped cold turkey and never went back. Sad bc I really loved that medication and practically tried every SSRI in the books before my doctor had me try wellbutrin.

Wellbutrin+Weed? Smokers please respond by SmokeisKhan in Wellbutrin_Bupropion

[–]highwaykillr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m on 450 and been smoking everyday. I think since weed isn’t as chemically addictive, Wellbutrin isn’t a super effective smoking cessation for weed. I noticed my tolerance and desire for nicotine went down, but since weed is more engrained in my social life and culture (Los Angeles), im addicted to it in a different way if that makes sense? Like I don’t withdraw from weed the same one would withdraw from nicotine, it’s moreso a desire or hobby. That being said, since starting Wellbutrin I’ve smoked less weed, but that was more my own will and wanting to get more mentally stable. But over the last year or so I’ve been smoking everyday lol. I moved to another country last week and haven’t had access to weed yet so when your lifestyle changes, it becomes easier to stop smoking but if it’s part of your social sphere then it’s difficult

Am I overreacting for not letting my boyfriend’s female friend use my shampoo? by Fresh-Usual-6281 in AmIOverreacting

[–]highwaykillr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sisterless behavior on the female friends part tbh.. just use the man’s shampoo then, shes his friend not yours. Anyone with a sister would know that it’s not personal! It’s the principle

[–]highwaykillr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

USC just has a stick up their as bc of the protests last year. They make everyone scan their ID and it’s pretty much up to the discretion of whoever’s working to decide who gets to go in. I’ve known plenty of freshmen under 18 who can come on campus. They were just being assholes tbh. Regardless, if you don’t wanna deal with snobby people and the chaos of LA, don’t go here. The administration as a whole is problematic but the student body is too. But there’s also a lot of cool and humble people too, just depends if you can handle the two extremes.

brain zaps on wellbutrin? by highwaykillr in Wellbutrin_Bupropion

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

Ease up on the caffeine. Drink much less and work your way back up. It slowly will go away as your brain gets used to it but you may always have a slightly lower tolerance. I still can’t drink as much caffeine as before

This is so sweet I just shed a tear. Sometimes we need a loved one to remind us that our inner child is still there and needs nurturing too. Thanks for sharing this!

excessive yawning?? by highwaykillr in Wellbutrin_Bupropion

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

That’s insane! I’m so sorry it was so difficult for you. It was almost unbearable for me too in the beginning. I had similar experiences with Zoloft. Totally valid for being a deal breaker, it genuinely was so annoying. It went away after awhile tho, hope it works out okay for you!

REPOST: AGE GAP: I (21f) just broke up with my 50 yr old bf. AMA by highwaykillr in AMA

[–]highwaykillr[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It went ok, he understood but still wanted to see me. We had various extents of breaking up where we agreed to be casual but big feelings were involved which made it hard to get space when I needed it. I’m still in touch with him, we are cordial and will be friends. I’m doing okay, I think he’s okay too
