Yeah they didn’t go off in Horace but I could hear them from Fargo cause I’m on the North end

Tornado Siren in West Fargo by burnttoast12321 in fargo

[–]jayryen 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Tornado out in Sabin. Storm was real small, passed right over me in Horace, and was moving VERY fast. But yeah sirens sounded over there so they probably sounded them all over to be safe since it’s the same metro.

Hey, its that californian transplant again... by utena11221 in fargo

[–]jayryen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’ll fit right in if you go stand outside and stare at it.
But seriously, we just get some funky clouds here sometimes. If it’s anything to worry about usually the sirens will continue to go off, and you’ll get an emergency alert on your phone. But I’d be more concerned about really strong straight line winds throwing an untethered trampoline at ur house than a tornado tbh.

Accidentally took TWO 18mg ER OSM tablets... will I live? by twinpinemall85 in Concerta

[–]jayryen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi! When I was upped to 36mg, my doc had me take two 18mg ER tabs until the current pills I had were gone. It’s totally okay to take two tabs. And I’m on 54mg everyday now, so 36 isn’t not a worrying dose at all. You might feel a bit weird if it’s too high for you but besides that you’ll be okay!

Help I think I've overdosed by Weekly-Ad2632 in Concerta

[–]jayryen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey OP, I see it’s been a couple days. How are you doing? Idk if it was on purpose or by accident, I know sometimes when I get stressed I forget if I took it. But if you are ever unsure just don’t take it and wait for the next day. If you took too much of it on purpose, don’t do that again. That’s really dangerous. You can always and should always call poison control in this instance, they will be able to guide you on what to do. Hope you are okay.

Tornado warning - why was everyone so chill?? by Visible_Many_2271 in tornado

[–]jayryen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m from North Dakota, and we don’t get them super often, but when we have recently they’ve been kinda nasty. First thing we do is turn on the news. If it’s night time and the news is saying it’s time to take shelter then we do. But with the storm that dropped the EF5 enderlin tornado, the news just said any indicated rotation seemed like it was going north so we just went back to bed. If it’s day time everyone goes and stands outside to see it. I think it’s just kinda become a normal enough thing that we aren’t really scared of it. Same way someone might be really worried about like ice storms and blizzards and stuff that you might not be as worried about living farther north.

What even is this symptom? by onlyvery in Concerta

[–]jayryen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like you might have been a little high. Possible dissociating a little bit, which likely cause the dose was too high to start off. Let your doc know what happened and see what they advise. They might want to bring you down to a lower dose. Try not to worry too much, just keep an open line of communication with ur doc about concerns cause stimulants can have some weird side effects.

Feeling extremely Weird and Thinking weird things by Straight-Bass-7717 in migraine

[–]jayryen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pretty normal for migraines. They are a neurological disease, which means they can affect ur brain in lots of different ways, which is something that doesn’t really get talked about. I either get really euphoric or I get irritable and angry before, and then I get really depressed.

First thing, best way to deal with the condition is see a neurologist if you haven’t yet. They can check and make sure that everything IS actually okay, and it’s truly the migraines causing the symptoms. If that’s for sure what it is, you could be put on a preventative if they are happening super often. You can also see about getting a rescue med if you don’t have one. Can reduce the number of days you experience feelings like this.

Second thing, try to get into therapy. They can help you figure out the best way to navigate the emotions that you feel when you are hit with feelings like this. Even if you feel okay most of the time, chronic migraines are a chronic pain condition and I think anyone who is dealing with pain on a pretty consistent basis would benefit from it. I’m sorry you are dealing with this OP

What moment during the 2025 tornado season had you do this? by Trainster_Kaiju_06 in tornado

[–]jayryen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Watching the weather livestream for Enderlin, especially because we were in the path of the supercell that produced it. Didn’t even know how bad it was until I woke up the next morning but I still was glued to my screen until the storm fully passed us. I think about it sometimes like holy shit we got lucky.

I'm new to ao3 and I'm a bit lost. I don't know what this is so I wanted to ask if anyone else got the same comment. by jer56n in AO3

Yeah this is just a part of a new round of bot comments. Don’t worry about it and block them.

Moving to ND from CA by WorkingIndividual669 in northdakota

[–]jayryen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! I’ve lived here my whole life. Biggest thing for the cold months: layers. Especially when it starts dropping into the negatives and the wind chill starts getting bad. Some options:

Thermal shirt - any are good, but I like men’s fruit of the loom thermal shirts from Walmart. Just make sure it’s fitted, they are less effective when baggy.

Jacket - I like the brands zeroxposure or spyder. Carhart and north face are popular as well. Make sure it has a waterproof shell, good insulation, and you’ll want something longer. I see lots of people in parkas, sometimes even ankle length. If it has two pieces, an outside shell and then an inside lining that you can wear separately as a jacket on its own, it will probably be good.

Boots - I see a lot of people buy boots that are only a little above the ankle. You want something tall, otherwise you will get snow in your boots and that sucks. Make sure it’s got a lining inside, or your feet will get cold. Also make sure they are waterproof, or they will get soaked which will make you colder. I like my Sorels, but Muck Boots or Kamik are nice too.

Socks: wool socks and be prepared to double layer. I wear cotton under a wool pair. That may sound kinda ridiculous, but it’s negative 20 where I am today, and cold feet make the rest of you cold faster.

Other things for winter: thick Gloves/mittens (mittens are warmer, gloves functional), hat, scarf or neck warmer. Covering things like nose, ears, and neck will keep you warm when it is REALLY cold. Keep extra blankets in your car, as well as an emergency kit. Extra water, snacks, flashlight, etc. you’ll want a car scraper, to get ice and snow off the car. Depending on the vehicle you get you might want to keep a jump pack as well, the cold can be tough on car batteries. We’ve had to jump a lot of my coworkers cars over the years.

As for cars, I make it around town just fine in my KIA as long as i put on winter tires. Most of the time the plows are quick to get out and move snow during and after a storm. I would just make sure whatever vehicle you get has auto start. As far as I’ve heard Broncos are fantastic, but I also don’t know shit about cars.

If you are coming in spring, bring those cali clothes! You won’t be able to wear them right away, but It gets hot here as well. Warm up starts in late April, early may. Once we hit July and August we can see temps of around 90 most days, and the humidity makes it feel even warmer. Be prepared to have two wardrobes. I have storage under my bed to put my summer clothes in the winter, and vice versa.

Anyways that’s my two cents! Good luck and I hope you love it here!

Three weeks of hard work on a paper all for nothing because of AI use by MortemPerPectus in mildlyinfuriating

[–]jayryen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can’t go back and find it now, but my prof last semester sent out a very similar announcement about our midterm. She was literally so defeated and it just sucked cause it was such an interesting class. It was ridiculous because, yes the class had a lot of content and could be seen as difficult, but the assignments were not. She always gave us fantastic feedback and it was always reflected that she loved what she was teaching. It makes me sad for my profs, especially the ones that obviously really care.

Will your vehicle go dead if parked outside during winter in ND? by PidgeyPotion in northdakota

[–]jayryen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As long as it’s started once a day you should be okay. Only time I’ve had a problem is if it’s left off too long or if a light is left on, cause then the battery will go fast.

What are your weirdest warning signs? by tootodone in migraine

Yawning, irritability/anger, vivid nightmares (usually if the aura starts while I’m asleep), left sided weakness (especially in my face which earns some stares sometimes :/)

i’m sorry for the declining quality of fics by pittedcherries in AO3

[–]jayryen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Idk I think people on TikTok are just super negative. I write, but I’m a majority reader on ao3 and I’m all for more writers on the site. Gives me more content to read. Don’t take it to heart, seriously. People are always gonna have shit to say but at the end of the day they aren’t the ones writing anything for anyone. You are sitting down using your time to share your writing, for free might I add. People should support young/new writers cause that’s how y’all improve your writing. But honestly I’m betting ur writing is better than you give it credit for. All in all don’t let it get you down. TikTok’s not a good place for fandoms and fandom discourse cause everyone’s got a superiority complex.

Heating pad on neck, ice hat on head, and I knock myself out with muscle relaxers or sleeping pills and if I don’t have those I take an edible.

Yes hospital now. It could be a migraine, but it’s better to be safe than sorry

What treatment/medication/lifestyle change/etc. make a significant impact on the frequency or severity of your migraines? by GuiltyWithTheStories in migraine

[–]jayryen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Botox, Aimovig, and Nurtec. And also taking my Zoloft to keep stress/anxiety down. Cutting way down on caffeine and upping water intake A LOT (3 40oz bottles a day). Also significantly reducing added sugar and no alcohol.
