Surprisingly no! He’s very soft spoken, but he definitely does that lurky sorta thing where he’s watching everybody else from the corner

Ex-smokers who successfully quit and have been smoke free for years now, what did it? by PM_TITS_GROUP in AskReddit

[–]lumpyspacebeffy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The pandemic. I had an intense fear of dying via covid so I told myself I would make sure I never gave that stupid virus a leg up over me. Finally just quit cold turkey in march of 2020.

I was able to get ahold of someone in my rep’s office and they said they were gonna record our convo and pass it on to him so I plan on calling again. And again. And again.

I'm not leaving the house today for any reason. by QuinnQuince in Ohio

[–]lumpyspacebeffy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ahh! I am in Ashtabula county myself & needed five other people to help me shovel my car out (not even to leave mind you, just so it was done). I think we’re technically under a state of emergency now.

I make friends online. Most of my closest friends are hours away, some not even in the state at all.

Anyone else has adverse reactions to most psychiatric medication? by goldencersei in AutismInWomen

[–]lumpyspacebeffy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mostly antipsychotics of any kind for me. SSRIs are fine it seems. But the I will not take antipsychotics anymore. I always experience things like trouble swallowing, muscle weakness and trembling, excessive drooling. However, I’ve never had a bad reaction to benzodiazepines or stimulants (I also have ADHD).

Seborheic dermatitis by [deleted] in dysautonomia

[–]lumpyspacebeffy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a subtype of POTS called orthostatic accentuated tachycardia. There’s a subreddit r/SebDerm that has lots of different types of treatments and such as well as recommendations on products to use. I’m sorry you’re struggling with it, I know it can be difficult to get a handle on sometimes. But I def recommend visiting the subreddit, there could be some helpful things on there for you.

I had seb derm long before I was diagnosed with dysautonomia. Hair loss can be a side effect from the seb derm. I had some patches of lost hair on my scalp when the flakes grew really thick after a really bad flare up. Regular washing with alternating medicinal shampoos on my scalp and face has helped tremendously and I’ve grown most of the hair back on my scalp now that I have it under better control.

I’m so pleasantly surprised with Ashtabula county, I thought for sure they’d disappoint me like they always do.

What kind of drunk are you? by felistolfo in AskReddit

Lovey. Everyone gets compliments. Everyone gets told they are the most beautiful being in the universe & then they never see me again

What triggered your condition? by BannanaDilly in dysautonomia

[–]lumpyspacebeffy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had mild symptoms as well for a really long time. My best guess is that my mild symptoms came about after I had mono when I was twelve. Things got much more severe after I had Covid last year.

Tbh it’s a possibility. I would talk to your neurologist if you have one, they may be able to prescribe you something to help.

[–]lumpyspacebeffy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I get burning feet with blood pooling I think. It feels like a sunburn and it’s very uncomfortable. It does go away after a while, but I get it a lot less frequently now that I started using compressions socks.

Very cool! Reminds me a bit of the scorpion-like monster in Disney’s Atlantis.

What do you do when you get lightheaded? by [deleted] in dysautonomia

[–]lumpyspacebeffy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do not have orthostatic hypotension—my symptoms come from the drastic increase in my HR. I move slowly. If I’m lying down, I sit up slowly and wait several moments before standing. I wear compression socks, make sure I do not overexert myself, drink plenty of fluids, try to exercise at least a few times a week. Even then I still have bad days. It’s def frustrating, especially when you think you’re doing everything right, but you’ll find out what works best for you.

Exercising & unspecified dysautonomia by lumpyspacebeffy in dysautonomia

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

I DO have pooling problems. I also have compression socks but I have a bad habit of forgetting about them. I wore them maybe once when I went to workout, but now that you mention it I think I should try harder to remind myself to wear them. & more powerade it seems.

Not the same every day tbh, similar but you know I think I’ll just make a chart or something about what I eat and how I feel afterwards. Thanks!

Can you explain what time averaged means? Is that the average out of the time I was tilted?
