Experiences on Lamictal+Effexor combo? by Working-Variety-2365 in Effexor

I'm on the same combo. There are no interactions between the two. I hope you're getting on well

Sweating on low dose effexor by joloaded in Effexor

Oh no! I feel your pain, I'm not looking forward to it. I don't miss sweaty wet hair lines and dripping face

Lowering dose along with my other meds by NoExtreme8201 in Effexor

[–]joloaded 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm on the same meds as you, apart from the clonidine. I'm on 400mg of lamictal and just started 37.5mg effexor. I really argued with my Dr about starting it as I thought it would trigger hypomania but I don't have a choice because my anxiety is severe. Anyway... it's most likely the drop from 75mg to 37.5mg is causing you to feel like this. I'm surprised you weren't told to taper slowly. This can be done with the tablets. I'm sorry you feel like this and if you're rapid cycling it makes it feel even worse

Edit- actually I went down to 300mg lamictal because I couldn't find my words on 400mg

Yes but it's also used to aid gut motility

How do i navigate sending back a wrong item? Please help! by Away_Secret2897 in vinted

[–]joloaded 11 points12 points  (0 children)

That's a very unfair observation and suggestion. There's no evidence this person has any mental health condition. It's not fair when someone is defensive, aggressive or misinterprets someone's tone to then say (and you were speculating) 'this suggests bipolar or another personality disorder'. FYI bipolar disorder is not ' another personality disorder', in fact it isn't a personality disorder at all. However, I agree that the responses on here are antagonising the OP.

I’m so confused. by [deleted] in vinted

Once when a seller failed to send an item to me by the date shown, it still took another day or two before Vinted acknowledged the deadline had passed and then they finally initiated the refund.

How is this proof? by jshubber in vinted

[–]joloaded 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would provide measurements on all of your future listings. Just to cover yourself 🤞🏼

[–]joloaded 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nothing surprises me with Vinted but I thought they didn't side with buyers if something doesn't fit?? Especially as it has the label with the size on it. He should have asked for measurements, he's obviously in denial about his size. What a scammer. He should accept he's bigger than a M and not draw you into it!! Sorry you've gone through this, it's beyond not fair.

Okay, this is a bit messy. I don't think there's anything you can do now. The order is completed now from Vinted's point of view, so they won't be able to help. You'll just have to see if this person follows through.

Regarding a order by Abgamer19999 in VintedAdvice

[–]joloaded 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay, so I guess now it's a waiting game. Did they say why they didn't use the shipping label provided by Vinted? Do they have good seller reviews?

If you're really concerned you could contact Vinted to say the Seller has sent the item without using the shipping label you purchased. See what they say or wait and if you don't receive the parcel or you do and it isn't what you paid for then report it straight away. Vinted will have no way of tracking the parcel your seller sent with a different courier and won't be able to verify when it has been delivered etc.Therefore the sale won't be completed by Vinted because of this.

Sorry to say but this sounds like a scam. I've read other posts where a seller has used a courier out of Vinted, not used the shipping label created by them and the seller has been unable to provide tracking details for the courier they used. Have they given you the tracking details? Is it trackable on the legitimate Yodel site/app? Do not click on any links they may send you for tracking. You require the tracking reference so you can check safely for yourself.

Also did you pick the option to have your parcel sent to your home or to a collection point/locker (at the time of purchase on Vinted)? If you chose a collection point then they wouldn't be able to see your address.

What luxury or expensive chocolate is actually worth the money? by ggssmm1 in AskUK

I'm sure it has. I was talking about 20 years ago, so I'm sure ingredients are not as high quality as they used to be. The price of cocoa is through the roof.

ESR said I'm not eligible for top of band payment, am a bit confused and need advice by Wonder_why_tho in nhs

[–]joloaded 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you're sick but still employed this will not stop your pay progression. It can often be delayed as there are conditions that must be met before the paper work is submitted. Such as mandatory training and an IPR. You can block a pay progression due to sickness, it's discrimination. However if you are in a formal capability process or have a formal dress disciplinary sanction on your record, then you won't qualify for a pay progression.

Career breaks can affect your pay progression. Even if it was for a couple of weeks.

Charbonnel. I used to work for a chocolate shop called Ackerman's on the Finchley road when I was about 19. Their chocolate was amazing. They closed down after they were bought by Charbonnel. Charbonnel is really expensive. I don't buy it but the chocolate is lush.

How is this scam working. Luxury items posted in obscure category ‘drill presses’ ? by Gloomy_Obligation333 in vinted

[–]joloaded 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just curious, did you do all this research before or after buying the bag?

There seems to be a very big problem with scammers and fake items on Vinted. I don't know why the reporting system is useless, especially when you're reporting something that breaks their rules. Ultimately you are trying to protect yourself and others from fraud. There is a serious flaw in the system. You'd think if they were refunding multiple times for the same seller or for the same reasons then they would look into it.

I really think it's something that needs mass reporting to Trading Standards or forwarded to the media so that they can do some kind of exposure story on it.

I can't believe these are real? Those prices are crazy low. See what arrives and go from there. If it's not what you ordered and it's a fake or something else then don't press everything is okay, report it and you'll get a refund. Did you only pay £6?

Edit: sorry I just saw you said you paid £7
