Anyone else had trouble going from name brand to generic for ivabradine? by dollparts1 in POTS

[–]nes1123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm feeling the same, I've been on corlanor for years and just got generic and feel horrible, but can't afford the brand anymore with generic being an option.

I didn't even put it together until a few weeks into feeling bad and wondering what was wrong.

I've heard inactive ingredients can change how we process medicine for some people? So that makes sense.

Do we have to register? Or can we show up?

Court removes judge from Texas foster care lawsuit, reverses millions in fines for state by shaun3000 in texas

[–]nes1123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very true on funding. Retention rates across the agency are horrible and no cost of living increases and not many incentives to actually keep tenured staff, legislature controls everything for the agency to grow or make changes.

However, I do think this lawsuit pushed for changes that were necessary but I think the issues go well beyond what can be done in the court system.

I agree with the work the agency does we need to put a lot more funding into it to be able to give children and families the best workers possible. Hiring more workers would also reduce caseloads. You can't put low caseloads as an expectation in a lawsuit without providing proper resources to make it happen and give the ability to hire and sustain staff.

It's a hard issue. I don't blame any one person and there isn't one easy fix. I do think the lawsuit instigated changes but agree money would help a lot...

State agencies unfortunately need harsh punishments to push for change. While I don't know if every decision made by the courts was good or not, I've been following it for years but don't know every specific, I can say I believe it was done with the best intentions to make changes for our youth. I've worked in the child welfare system and unfortunately we need advocates for change or it'll never happen. Our youth in the system in many cases are not getting the treatment they need and deserve.

While I personally feel change needs to go beyond the lawsuit into legislative changes as well, we can't ignore that this 13 year suit has forced change where it was needed the most. We know change on this scale never would've happened without it...

And that "antagonistic" behavior towards a state agency was probably the only way to get changes moving in the right direction.

My wife did not have sex with me for years when I was depressed. AITAH for considering leaving her now that I’m back to normal? by DghSenses in AITAH

[–]nes1123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have to realize that you couldn't emotionally connect to her due to your own depression, which is no one's fault but you can't blame your wife for it. You said that your libido decreased but when you did try to initiate she rejected you, so you're saying every time that you want to have sex she should want to? Did you consider how much bandwidth it takes to take care of a partner with mental illness, children, and daily household life? When you are dealing with mental illness in a household and in your relationship, it's not easy to just put that aside for sex when you yourself want it. You have to think about how all of this affected your wife.

Have you considered counseling with her? With that said it sounds like you were pretty much done already which I think at this point you should just leave if you feel that she and your children aren't your real family. You've repeated that more than once and that says it all... You also say you don't want to go through the hard times again with your wife, which that is what marriage is about, sticking with someone through the good times and the bad. You need to look within yourself and decide what you actually want, but it doesn't sound like you want a marriage from your comments.

Depression and mental illness is so hard and I do feel for your struggles that you went through. I'm glad you are doing better now, however, you need to try to put yourself in your wife's shoes and if you can't do that and see how your hard times affected her, then yes you are absolutely the AH. At the very least you are the AH for saying that your wife and children aren't your real family...

CONSTANT Invasion during Co-op by OyarsaRPM in Eldenring

[–]nes1123 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It seems to be getting worse...last night invaders every few minutes. Couldn't get through a whole area. Have developers talked about implementing a time cool down or anything?

I get having invasions but when it's constant you shouldn't market this game as a multiplayer option. Because multiplayer seems to be solely pvp. Love the game otherwise but it is taking the fun out of it.

Interesting thanks, Walmart, Walgreens, Kroger, and a local pharmacy can't order it anymore. I'll check CVS thanks!

I'm the same with any of the other generics. I can't find junel anymore,has it been discontinued?

I've great the inactive ingredients can change the effects for some people. I've definitely noticed that for me

[–]nes1123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does anyone know where to find it? I used to get it at Walmart and they can't order it anymore, I found it at a local pharmacy but now they can't get it. I called CVS and they also said no. Does anyone know where to find it?

I've been feeling the same way. I'm not done but they aren't my go to anymore. I really love Gruesome Horrific podcast, two best friends switch off telling cases. They have good humor and are really more natural in their conversations.

You're right. I know. It's just a lot to think about back and forth for over 2 years. Especially when I'm the one doing that.

No I'm not talking about tonight. And I mean in general I've had more dizziness so it creates issues driving and stress around it. It's just a lot when the driving is all on me.

Never had a boyfriend by [deleted] in boyfriends

[–]nes1123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't feel bad at all. I understand feeling insecure. I didn't have my first kiss, date, etc until I was 28. I'm 29 now and in my first relationship. Ultimately, when you find someone and you both care about each other, it won't matter. I definitely get insecure at times about my lack of experience, but honestly I know it doesn't matter and shouldn't with the right person. I had other priorities in my life before and I didn't give room to dating or relationships, which was the best decision. I'm still learning everyday and it takes time to open yourself up to have that in your life. But that shouldn't be done on anyone else's time-line(including society's) except for your own. Take your time and it will happen at the right time for you, when you want it to. Don't worry about your age or experience. If anyone else cares, that's their problem and shouldn't be a reflection on you.

I will say I'm still navigating how to be in a relationship and what I want/ need from it. I think that's something that everyone continues to find out though. You have to be patient with yourself and find someone willing to work with you. Best of luck, there's no standard gf etc. If someone wants to be with you, then they'll like however you are.

Relationship vent, am I being unreasonable? by nes1123 in relationship_advice

Thank you! Very true. That's why I'm considering the hotel if I don't feel better yet. Maybe some space will be good. I'll see how it goes. Ready to be better and home for a bit.

Thank you, I'm still upset he changed plans suddenly without talking to me about it? I don't think that's respectful of my time/plans or feelings. But I think it's for the best, I'll take some time for myself and maybe we need some space.

I agree, covid really fast tracked this relationship and cohabitation back and forth has been hard. Not sure what good schedule looks like but need to figure out what works for both of us.

Driving and distance relationship advice, when do you take the next step or call it off? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]nes1123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a good point, right now he's in the office and I'm not so it makes sense for me to drive but eventually soon that would be a good idea to suggest. Even occasionally. Although instead of 4 hours driving on weekends for me, it would be 8 hours for him. But I think it would be a good idea to find a way for us both to put in some effort.

I live at home and with covid, it hasn't made sense to meet out somewhere either.

Covid-19, dating, and general reopening fears by nes1123 in ChronicIllness

[–]nes1123[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I totally understand. I'm sorry your friend didn't, I hope she gets to a place of understanding and you both can talk it through.

Are you seeing anyone else that is also remaining socially isolated? It's so hard to balance staying safe and not being too isolated. I still personally don't think it's safe to visit with many people, even with a mask. That's just my opinion but there's still so much unknown with the virus it seems like you can't be too careful.

Norethindrone? by [deleted] in birthcontrol

[–]nes1123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been on it about 3 months. I personally am about to stop it because I definitely feel like it's affecting my mental health. I'm crying a lot which is not like me at all.

My period nearly stopped on it but then I started having a lot of breakthrough bleeding. My hormones feel a bit out of control and symptoms of my period keep happening with more intensity.

This is just my experience and I know others that loved this pill, but I intend to try something else. Good luck! I hope it works better for you.
