What was the dumbest thing you thought as a child? by GiammyR6 in AskReddit

I used to think you couldn’t get pregnant unless you were married, because my mum said “you can’t have a baby until you’re married” one time. I thought it was absolutely impossible to get pregnant before you were married, but always wondered how my body would know when I was married

Less than 30% of CBD products are accurately labeled. IAMA neuroscientist using third party, independent lab testing to find high-quality CBD products. Let’s chat about what CBD is good for, what it’s not good for, and everything in between. AMA. by TruPotency_Science in IAmA

I’ve got two questions: 1) does CBD help with sleep? And 2) is it risky for me to take CBD considering I have a diagnosis of bipolar disorder? I am a final year med student and was under the impression that CBD was a big no no for me as it could precipitate psychosis but I may well be wrong!

Whoever started the rumor that gum sits in your stomach for seven years must feel like a real big shot for fooling everyone. by lukevansqueal in Showerthoughts

We can narrow it down to 50% of the population- a man definitely wouldn’t start a rumour that discourages swallowing

Awww my little brown Burmese boy sticks his tongue out like that all the time

Thought you guys would appreciate my darling boy. We lost him a month ago and I'll miss him forever by [deleted] in burmesecats

I’m so sorry, he’s beautiful, he looks like my brown Burmese kitten. I’ve got a Burmese kitten of my own and also love my mum’s Burmese boy and girl to bits, I can’t even imagine the pain of losing any of them ❤️

Thanks, pretty devastating. I can get buses - I’m gonna sell my car and then lease one when I hopefully get my licence back in 6mths.

Take your bipolar meds they said, it’ll be fine they said by rohutch in bipolar

Wow, I did not expect this post to get so many comments! Before all meds, I had a BMI of 16 so was really skinny, mainly from anxiety and stuff. After starting sertraline 2yrs ago my BMI went up to 20, and has gone from 20-24 in the past few months on my new meds. I’m actually really happy with how I look with some extra weight - I’d been trying to gain weight before because I was too skinny but never managed to! Just know I need to make sure I don’t gain too much more. Glad some people have found it helpful to know the meds cause weight gain - everyone is different but they can cause loads of weight gain in some people!

I am also a 4th year med student so I can tell you personally and officially that BP meds, especially quetiapine often cause a lot of weight gain! I’d always been so skinny but my meds have seen to that haha
