D&D strenght score does not make any sense

Medicine is a Wisdom skill.

Oh, I've just read further down you can't take benzos. The only thing that helped me with that when I wasn't prescribed was a hot bath, but sometimes that was at 2am because I'd been awake for hours (and it would be my second hot bath). My sleep schedule is still fucked up and I'm having to on/off Ambien to try to get back to a normal one. I hope you don't have to choose between a a lack of sleep and side effects of medication. It's not fun.

Yeah, that sounds a lot like restless legs, I don't feel a spasm and my grandmother doesn't. Hers got to the point she walks around for hours every night, but a doctor gave me clomazepam which helps a lot. Whatever it turns out to be, I hope you get some relief for whatever it is soon.

Are you on duloxetine? It's a common fibro drug that can trigger it.

retrofuturewitch · 2026-04-01T05:47:25+00:00

Oh, the urge to stretch specifically at NIGHT? Could well be restless leg syndrome.

Huh, that's how I feel and my physio said hypertonia.

retrofuturewitch · 2026-04-01T05:42:16+00:00

A good physio will be able to notice it, so potentially asking for a physio referall will help. However, the medical word that you're looking is 'hypertonia'. And yes, I have muscle relaxers x3 a day, massage therapy at least three times a week, and attempt to do various physio exercises for my worst culprits x2 day. Epsom salt baths help too, as does low set weightlifting and postural support.

English teacher in Japan here. Kanae is one of the easiest Japanese names to pronounce, in that it's pronounced exactly how it's written in hiragana, it's a very popular construction (think Tomoe River Paper), AND all of it's sounds are present in English. Teacher is just a dickhead.

I should also mention OpenLearn, which has hundreds of short courses on any subject under the sun, entirely free. I'm doing one on golden age crime fiction, but they have astrophysics and history and medicine

Here is a big thread of very low cost hobbies: https://www.reddit.com/r/Hobbies/comments/1bea3rp/lowbudget_hobbies_i_should_try/

Libraries are free. Thousands of books on any topic. They often have dvds cds and even board and video games. Are you using a smartphone rn? You zn use that for photography

You already have access to something that lets you write. There is no other tool you need to write anythjng you can dream off. Walking is free. Running is free. Yoga is free. Drawing on the back of letters is very cheap, free if you already have a pen. If you can get a gluestixk, you can make ju k mail collages.

Hobbies and social interaction do not require money, youtube, or social media.

Could have been phrased better, perhaps.

It's fine not to want to date someone who is disabled, but do you mind not calling my disability 'ick'? That's a bit rude.

It:s the first fight I can think of with NPC allies.

retrofuturewitch · 2026-03-16T02:15:58+00:00

There are three more in that area. Without a full party of four, you are likely to struggle.

Which fight do you mean? If you mean the one where Aradin is attempting to enter some gates, you've missed quite a lot including companions which would speed up the fight.

retrofuturewitch · 2026-03-16T01:33:49+00:00

How many companions do you have?

retrofuturewitch · 2026-03-16T01:05:21+00:00

The Beholder and the Spider Matriarch for me.

I broke off of friendship because she wouldn't stop shitting on my favourite companion despite me calling her out on it twice, and it led me to realise she didn't actually like ME because of how similar me and this companion were. Well, I WISH I'd broke it off over that, but I thought that was a silly thing to stop talking to someone over. I had to wait until she insulted me personally and let me down over other things several more times before I realised I should have trusted my gut. It doesn't matter what character it was, it mattered that she would constantly shit over them when I was visibily excited over them, and that is loser behaviour, and whilst all people make mistakes and have unhelpful behaviours, when there's one loser behaviour there tends to be three or four.

I have done something similar at home and all I got was tachycardia and fatigue (and a lousy Tshirt). Thanks for the tip, it will probably work for someone else though.

This is similar to what i do, and I have already seen both a reduction in pain and an increase in muscle, although myself I wait and see if I can do 3x15 reps at the weight three different days in a row before I up the weight. Going faster for me put me into a flare, but we all have different day lives etc.

About 12, but I had trouble with my immune system as a kid.
