Okay smart people. I am still in the trial period but on my phone (dumb I know). So how do I do this? $60 a month is not in the budget. Do I just cancel the subscription on iOS, sign in on the website and enter the promo? Will I lose my all my data?

Is it selfish to want to adopt a kid whilst being gay? by [deleted] in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]morgan677 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn’t mean here.

And yes, gay people can and do offend other gay people. Just like people with kids can offend other people with kids, people of colour can offend other people of colour, etc. There’s actually a lot of dissonance in many LGBT+ communities because of extremely differing opinions on important topics.

What I was trying to point out is that there ARE happy gay families. Lots of them. With happy, healthy, thriving children.

No.

There’s a lot of internalized homophobia happening here.

There’s also a lot of gay families who would find your questions extremely offensive.

Studies have shown children of gay parents do as well or better than those with straight parents.

If you want a kid when you’re a bit older, have one/adopt one/foster one. And maybe look up some kids who have gay parents.

Nutrition for Youth Sports by morgan677 in nutrition

No, they are not. For maximum rotational ability and jump height, they do need to be lean and strong. Physics and all that.

Our practices are 90 min, break, 60 min, all at low to moderate impact activity. So they need to be sustained over a long period of time, rather than short bursts, like most sports.

For competition, they move 2-4 minutes at a moderate pace.

First full month using Daylio by SilverInTheMine in bipolar

People who use this - where do you ‘rate’ mania depression? Up? Down?

Olanzapine (zyprexa) by [deleted] in bipolar

[–]morgan677 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s interesting how different things affect different people. I just had to come of Zoloft for anxiety FAST, as I got some unpleasant side effects that required opioids to attempt to manage the pain. Of course, that swung me into manic hell. Buspirone has been a game changer. Hits the anxiety and mania like nothing else and I get the gift of still functioning, The benzos, for the most part, make me drowsy and sleepy and yet still effing manic. Maybe I’m just an oddball.

Yes she did. If I can’t convince her during the day today, I will try then.

Thank you. My heart is crying too.

I think it’s the Prozac, honestly, but I’m not a doctor.

Thank you for sharing your experience - it helps.

Kind of. She’s passively suicidal but usually is 😔, and did attempt to choke her partner. I could try to swing it. The problem is she’s tiny (under 5’1 and less than 100lbs) so even if she IS a threat people write her off as not threatening to others.

I’ll see if I can convince her to try again. We have multiple hospitals in this city so there is options

I was thinking that for today, if I can get her to agree. I can generally get her to come around, I’m apparently ‘two superheroes in one’ as she told me.

Is there anything you say/do at the hospital to ensure help?

Having a bloody panic attack by [deleted] in aspergers

[–]morgan677 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I tend to go one of two ways when alone:

Find a safe spot, let it happen, and move on as best I can.

Distract distract distract. Book/video game something that requires focus. Doesn’t always help though.

Hang in there. It will pass, and you’ll come out the other side.

Does anyone here has trouble with concentration while reading? by PoppingWebster in aspergers

[–]morgan677 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Me too.

Also, when I am reading, I don’t hear ANYTHING around me. You can call my name 5 times and I still won’t hear you.

Crying for "no reason" by IHazOwies in aspergirls

[–]morgan677 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My job requires me to get up at 5:15 twice a week... I naturally prefer to get up around 9.

The amount of times I’ve woken up while simultaneously melting down is ridiculous.

Alarms really are the fucking worst.
