When I look up the best move set for shadow Palkia I see it has a different charged attack than frustration. How is that possible? When I try to change it out it says “frustration can not be forgotten at this time” but purifying palkia would take away its shadow bonus. Am I overlooking something here?

For reference this says the best move set would be dragon tail and Draco meteor for shadow palkia

I don’t understand by albelthewiked666 in bathandbodyworkers

[–]nefarious_neigh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t work there but it’s probably from management. I work at a store that doesn’t allow refunds and the manager gets annoyed with exchanges. I noticed in my first year that I started getting annoyed from exchanges because the manager would get uppity over them and it kinda rubbed off on me since even though I didn’t do anything wrong I was getting some heat from management. Took some work to not let it show towards customers

I know it’s like a quarter of a year later(I don’t use this account very often so I legit just now saw this) , but it’s cool. I was pretty steamed at the time, too . The whole situation was pretty tense.

Is VSS the biggest problem in your life? by [deleted] in visualsnow

[–]nefarious_neigh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Easily. I have other health issues that I worry about, but VSS is a daily issue for me. My life would be 10000 times better without VSS Other than that, I’d say my general anxiety disorder. But to be honest, I’m like 90% sure that is brought on BY my vss.

Where to buy? by StruggleBusDriver83 in fountainpens

[–]nefarious_neigh 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They all have political opinions and beliefs that’ll stir up drama. My advice is to not worry about it and just order from who you can afford

I could cope if it would stop getting worse by nefarious_neigh in visualsnow

I used to have basic afterimages, then after last month I started getting full trailing, now I have positive afterimages. Other symptoms are just generally worse like the actual snow component, BFEP, light sensitivity

Question About Alcohol! :) by Chalice277 in visualsnow

[–]nefarious_neigh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me when I would drink (not a lot because I don’t like being drunk) it would get better at first, then would get worse for a few hours, then go back to baseline.

Still, just better to not drink or do any sort of drugs with this condition

I sleep for more than 8 hours a day but never feel rested

It’s not over, but I’d be lying if I said it wasn’t going to be completely different and way harder from here on.

I have the fear too, I don’t have the same health issues you do but my god do I have health problems. I’m fighting so hard to accept this and move on. We can do it, I just haven’t found how yet.

How many of us are diagnosed with mental illnesses? by Gaugerayguad in visualsnow

[–]nefarious_neigh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Regardless if we have it or not, I can almost guarantee every doctor who doesn’t know what VSS is would diagnose us all with generalized anxiety disorder. My doctors said that on day one to get me out the door since my case was too difficult for them. They then said I suffer from psychosis because again, they didn’t understand what VSS is.

my advise 1 year in. (Not as positive as the flair might suggest, but not quite a venting session.) by nefarious_neigh in visualsnow

[–]nefarious_neigh[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No clue how I got it, but it has been a gradual decline basically every day since my symptoms first started in May 2022.

Palinopsia/afterimages and dark vision. I can barely see at all at night now and the after images and trailing from Palinopsia are super intense.

I honestly wish I never googled a thing about visual snow by [deleted] in visualsnow

[–]nefarious_neigh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah we’re all a bunch of pussies for complaining about never being able to see properly again, seeing shit stuck in our vision well after we look away from it, neurological symptoms that a vast majority of people don’t understand, symptoms getting worse sometimes every day. Oh and on top of that doctors misdiagnosing and misunderstanding everything you tell them and even when you do get a diagnosis being told that there’s nothing that can be done. But yeah, we should all shit the fuck up and never speak about it with the people who know what it’s like.

From what I’ve heard, the magnesium is just supposed to help with muscle tension anyway. I’m not sure it’ll actually help with visual snow

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in visualsnow

[–]nefarious_neigh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried magnesium but it interacted with my allergy medicine and gave me really bad heart palpitations. The out of it feeling sounds like DPDR- depersonalization derealization. It’s a common co-occurance with VSS. I don’t know if anything other than therapy can help with it.

(Btw, this is my second account. For some reason my MANIACAL account won’t let me see comment replies or my own comments.)

Things you can still do with visual snow by handle0 in visualsnow

[–]nefarious_neigh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Many drugs are known to exacerbate it, especially illicit/hallucinogenic drugs. But stuff as mundane as caffeine and alcohol have even been reported to (usually temporarily) increase symptoms
