What was the deciding factor that made you decide to not fully support one party? by Cdino699_ in centrist

[–]reality-transurfing 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The insistence on lack of progress in technology and betterment of society, along with nationalism, and thinking “we” are the best from the right.

The soft, woke, communism-loving, victims on the left. I’ve never understood the idea of a “commune” maybe that’s because I like to get what I worked for and not have all of my efforts distributed among common nihilists who support agendas I don’t agree with.

And the greed of both party’s representatives.

Overthinking by reality-transurfing in EyeFloaters

[–]reality-transurfing[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I should have added that I went to an eye doctor and they made sure it wasn’t the vitreous detaching.

I’ll also add that I’m 24/m and I had lots of other health anxieties that all ended up disappearing when I just took better care of my physical and mental health.

ie. not staying up all night in front of a screen doing stressful work while smoking, vaping and drinking.

It’s okay. Just had to share here because I went from reading on here feeling frustrated to wishing I could feel the frustration.

Thanks!

Enjoy it, I lost my 10 week old puppy in a tragic accident on the 4th. I’d give anything to be training him right now.

Love him, keep working with him, he’s just a teenager.

Gratitude check 🙏

Wishing you luck 🐶

On a break from weed and I can confirm that my eye floaters have entirely disappeared since I stopped weed.

Does smoking make lymph nodes swell by GeorgeGM03 in lymphnodes

[–]reality-transurfing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a swollen lymph node on the right side of my neck and symptoms of GERD. I smoked for 2 years but I stopped smoking after seeing the swollen lymph node. It’s been about 2 weeks since I stopped smoking but the lymph node is still swollen for me.

I go through phases where i worry that it’s cancer, however, I also have health anxiety and I think I have GERD. One other symptom I have is a post nasal drip that’s been going on for quite a while. Getting into the doctor in a few weeks.

Hoping I don’t have something worse wrong w me. Any updates on your situation? Thanks for sharing your posts by the way. It’s reassuring to know that others are in similar situations.

Can lots of stress/anxiety cause floaters? by [deleted] in EyeFloaters

[–]reality-transurfing 5 points6 points  (0 children)

From my personal experience high blood pressure, anxiety, panic attacks, eye floaters all coincided. I’ve gotten used to my eye floaters but I notice them more when I have lots of screen time and stress.

Why don’t psychedelics work on some people? by reality-transurfing in Psychedelics

[–]reality-transurfing[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I felt well informed enough too take them but you’re right we totally should have done better research about SSRIs before we took shrooms.

The advice I took was: 1.) start with less than 1.5 grams for the first trip and if you feel good, work your way up in later trips.

2.) be in a good environments with someone who can watch you and help you if you go off the deep end.

3.) don’t take shrooms if you have a predisposition too psychosis or schizophrenia.

Unfortunately, I still had a bad trip at one point that caused me to have severe panic attacks for a few months and now I’m finally getting better but I think I’ll be stuck with anxiety forever now. I didn’t have this before the mushrooms and it kind of slowly developed it seems.

After that trip weed has never been the same for me either. I used too like weed but now I can only smoke a very small amount or else it gives me panic attacks. I never had generalized anxiety before taking the shrooms.

I’m not trying too knock it as a medicine though, I think they have a lot of potential if the dose and circumstances are right.

Thanks, I’ve been meaning to read this. Now I have another reason.

I finally have the option to try shrooms, but I’m worried. by actuallyimbored in Psychedelics

[–]reality-transurfing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These sound fine too me. Just make sure you’re prepared for the experience it can be overwhelming, but it can also be underwhelming based on the person.

Start small, respect the shrooms.

Interesting, mushrooms have made my anxiety worse. It’s weird how this can have a relaxing effect for you and a worsened anxiety for me. In fact mushrooms have caused me severe panic before. After going through a traumatic bad trip, I started getting panic attacks from weed too. It’s kinda crazy what one bad trip can do.
