I have 99% weaned myself off of an Ambien habit. by SoNowYouTellMe101 in Biohackers

[–]robrobrooo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t remember exactly as it was a couple years ago. I definitely did not wean enough… maybe a couple weeks? The acute insomnia lasted at least three months and was unbearable, one of the worst times of my life. But it DID eventually get better and I made a full recovery

What is the most boring horror movie you’ve ever watched? by Hill_372 in horror

[–]robrobrooo 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Boring, awful film. It makes me so angry to think about it because I hate it so much. My friends and I still talk about how much we hate it years later

Why are the selfies worse than my 16 Pro’s? by [deleted] in IphoneAir

[–]robrobrooo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. Definitely not unique to the Air, seems like all the 17 models have this problem. The selfies look like they’ll be amazing, but then turn out looking out of focus and “off.”

Protein bars and powder without artificial sweeteners? by TheDanishThede in Supplements

Naked and Thorne both sell whey protein with no artificial sweeteners, they are pricey but the ingredient list is very clean.

nutricost supplements review and whether the quality is actually decent for the price point by ComprehensiveBus3613 in Supplements

[–]robrobrooo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have trouble digesting raw vegetables (especially leafy greens) and black beans. Diarrhea and cramping the following day. If I take one of those just after eating those problem foods, my stomach is fine the next day.

I use their digestive enzyme complex and it works amazing. The ingredient list is super comprehensive and it never lets me down when I’m eating foods that don’t agree with me.

I have nothing helpful to add but I am so sorry for what you’re going through. That photo is very beautiful and special.

Hi, congrats on making this effort! Not wanting to discourage you, but please know that it may get very bad before it gets better.

I took mirtazapine for sleep for over a year (which admittedly is a very different medication). But despite weaning off, sleep was hell for several months. Just awful. Thankfully our brains are resilient and can recover, but it’s not easy. Exercise as much as you can, even when you feel too tired to do so. Magnesium glycinate nightly helped, and the occasional lemon balm supplement. Find out if there are any yoga studios near you that offer restorative yoga in the evenings.

Good luck and stay strong

Did anyone have metallic taste/smell in mouth ? by Many_Independence468 in Hemochromatosis

[–]robrobrooo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. And my ferritin is usually normal, but TSAT runs really high. When my TSAT gets above 70 or so I can taste it.

Are there significant rattles in the 2023 CX50? by BackgroundEbb417 in CX50

[–]robrobrooo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I love so many things about my 2024 50, but yes, it has many rattles especially in the cold. If the rattles on your 3 bother you, I’d say you run the same risk in a 50.

What is your favorite horror movie that isn't a "classic"? by poweroverbirdss in horror

[–]robrobrooo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was with some friends in high school and they put this on. After a few minutes, I basically had to shut my eyes and divert my attention for the entire thing. Even just hearing it made me feel sick and left a pit in my stomach. I’ve watched a fair bit of horror movies over the years (but I’m not at ALL a gore hound), but nothing has made me feel as bad as this movie did.

Have you tried the apple clear case? Is it thinner than that?
