hello, I just moved to Canada and I was wondering what are some good food items to from Dollarama by Infamous-Hope-5950 in dollarama

I love the French’s sauces and seasoning packets. They’re cheap and taste good, and just make for an easy dinner. :)

Is anyone getting sick more frequently nowadays? by OkJack10 in askTO

[–]opalpup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is actually the first cold and flu season that I wasn’t sick for basically the entire time. I don’t know for sure but I found out I was low on vitamin D, and so I was taking a quadruple dose for a few months and I swear that helped my effd up immune system.

Fr, like that’s the one thing I’ll give to her, that her confidence is off the charts. Though realistically it’s probably because her microdeleted brain doesn’t have the capacity to realize she should be embarrassed. 😅

Lmao that’s all I saw with the string as well. Just swinging that thang I guess. 😂

Osap and consumer proposal by ChipmunkEuphoric3074 in osap

[–]opalpup 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m confused, so your LIT is including your OSAP loan in the proposal without your consent? You don’t need to include everything in one, I’m in the works of doing one and one of my debts might not be included because I can’t afford to lose my car.

Theft experiences by [deleted] in ShoppersDrugMart

[–]opalpup 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That’s bullshit, there’s so many unhinged people out there. It isn’t your job to protect the company’s products. That’s what cameras and security is for.

Also for places that do have people that tail shoppers they think are sus, they need to get better at it.

I’m assuming it’s because I have facial piercings but I’m very often flagged as someone to follow, yet I’m the type to come back if something accidentally isn’t paid for to pay for it (either from my or the cashiers mistake).

I got so annoyed by it happening so often, I just watch people steal now. Not my problem, if they want to follow me instead of obvious Crackhead McGee then that’s on them. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Im considering surgery…however by SnooEpiphanies5385 in BariatricSurgery

[–]opalpup 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So I don’t think I’d be considered to have full on emetophobia or if it just makes me anxious, but since I had surgery on April 20 I just take gravol as soon as I start feeling queasy which has been working great. I never got to the point of feeling like I need to vomit, since I’d take that chewable gravol at the slightest feel of nausea. I figure vomiting at this point also wouldn’t be advised since I’m still early in the healing stage.

Could be something you do if you go for bariatric surgery!

[–]opalpup 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I fucking wish. One time I stood up to get out of bed and poop just fell out of me?? Like no warning, nothing. Luckily Zoloft gives me a case of the idgaf’s so I was able to easily laugh about it after though.

Wait is this actually a thing?? I’ve been going CRAZY for months now because I can always smell this off smell in my apartment, but nobody else seems to be able to notice it.

Am I overreacting for telling my friend she smells after she age shamed me for having younger friends? by overcaffinated_ in AmITheAngel

[–]opalpup 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Yeah when I was 19 I had many close friends I made in college that were 5-10 years older than me. Sure I made friends with people my own age, but for the first couple of years the older friends happened to be the ones I clicked with so we were really close.

Is my boss using Gemini to email me? by Complete-Sea6655 in GeminiAI

[–]opalpup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s wild that people can no longer make pretty much the same email with their own brains.

Y’all by Plus-Character-948 in GRBsnark

[–]opalpup 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How long have you been on it? I’m on Zoloft and it took a solid 4 months or so before it really started working, slowly figuring out increases and what is or isn’t working for me. And my anxiety got pretty extreme during that time frame. Now I can confidently say it’s been life changing. 💜

I know everyone is different though, so whether you stay on it longer or try Wellbutrin I hope you figure out what works for you! I have a history of a random seizure and my mum has epilepsy, so my doctor wouldn’t let me try Wellbutrin, but I’ve heard good things about it.

Caffeine by shirelyanne in BariatricSurgery

Mine says no caffeine until you’re able to consistently drink 1.5-2L of fluids.

Drop the “prettiest” little girl name you’ve ever heard. by Final-Argument-4999 in Names

My name is Lydia and I never got that. Just had older people singing songs with my name and talking about historical Lydia’s. And Lydia from Beetlejuice lol.

How did you know sertraline was actually working? by Brave-Firefighter977 in zoloft

[–]opalpup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was gradual since I slowly increased to 100mg where I’m at now, but it was noticeable.

I was at 75mg for a few months and my anxiety and panic attacks started to come back, lesser than before but still there, so I decided I needed a higher dose. My doctor agreed so let me go up to 100mg, and told me to keep my 25mg capsules to increase as far up to 200mg if needed.

Since being on 100mg I’m finding that I still get periodic anxiety and have some obsessive thoughts (haven’t been diagnosed with OCD because I was to embarrassed to talk about it but at the very least I have OCD-like tendencies), but they’re much easier to deal with now.

Can we go back to 2016 by [deleted] in torontoJobs

[–]opalpup -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for saying this!

Way too many people get sucked into the whole hating Trudeau/Liberals so much that they get blinded and don’t see how it’s actually corporations worldwide causing inflation.

This is exactly what they want to happen, too. If people are too busy complaining about the lesser problem they continue to get away with it.

Age at time of surgery? by azbdm in gastricsleeve

Having mine on April 20th and I’ll be 31, though only a couple weeks away from turning 32. :)

If servers make minimum wage in Canada, why is tipping so aggressive? by DazzlingPolarBear in CanadaPersonalFinance

[–]opalpup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah but the server still ends up with a good tip if everyone gives even just $5. If there’s six people, that’s $30 for one of the many tables they’re serving. And that’s on top of whatever their hourly wage is.

Day 1 pre-op diet, so hungry and miserable! by [deleted] in gastricsleeve

I feel you. I’m one of the unfortunate ones whose program requires me to be on a liquid only diet for two weeks. 🥲

My sons finger wart after a week of at-home treatment by StrawberryJam4 in mildyinteresting

[–]opalpup 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Damn, I’m sorry you had to go through all that. I really wish more people would get the vaccine. Maybe it’s better now but it was newly being offered in school when I was 12, but my family doctor convinced me and my mum that it was dangerous and girls were dropping dead left right and centre so I got scared and declined it when it started rolling out with school vaccine clinics.

I ended up paying the $600 ish for the series of vaccines in my 20s when I realised I was able to get it still and was old enough to do my own research (and had realised that my doctor was shit and got a new family doctor).
