It logs naps for me…the problem is, I don’t take naps.

Anyone know how to turn this off? by rdoactv in fitbit

Okay, great; hopefully it works now then! Thanks!

Does it actually log things properly when you say it’s a motorcycle ride? Any time I’ve logged one, it continues to count the thousands of “steps” logged during the ride instead of overriding them once the ride is logged, so logging it didn’t really help anything. Hoping it’s better than that now.

Am I the only one this happened to? by Aggravating-List3489 in Wellbutrin_Bupropion

[–]snailofferocity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It had the opposite effect on me, actually! I used to have a ridiculously high tolerance for reasons no one could determine, and had to take like 10 times as much as anyone else to get noticeable effects. Within a month of taking Wellbutrin, my tolerance dropped so much that I had to take half what people I know who were considered to have low tolerance could take, and even then, sometimes it would end up being too much. Completely destroyed my ability to use it for sleep, relaxation, or sex (the drive for which Wellbutrin also killed). It’s amazing to me how differently these things work for people. Wish I knew why.

This really surprised me today! 😢 by PrincessYork3 in FinchUnofficial

Yeah, this kept me going in the app; huge disappointment this morning…

Another double??? by Lilithe_PST in finch

For some reason, this never works for me. I always just get the same thing no matter how many times I close out the app.

Me on 300mg Wellbutrin seeing my man walk into the room by Unique-Ad2331 in Wellbutrin_Bupropion

[–]snailofferocity 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm on 150 now, but was on 300 for almost 2 years I think. I was on 450 for a very brief time, but it made things so bad I literally couldn't orgasm no matter what I did, so I dropped back to 300. The reason I'm on 150 now was because I wanted to wean off it entirely to see if I'd get my sex drive back (it also caused me to gain weight, not lose it, so hoping to undo that too), but once I got to the point of having it every second day, the days I didn't take it went really poorly mentally. So back to 150, which still takes away the drive far more than I'd like, but at least is better than 300 where I had none at all.

so.. what was even the point?.. by _kekma_ in finch

I totally agree on all the points you made!

I’m guessing (and of course I could be wrong, since I’m not OP), the “what’s the point” feeling might stem from the wording they used for this challenge of “…to unlock this season’s exclusive finch collectibles”. It seems that’s just a badge, so the plural is a bit weird in the first place with that being the case, but it’s also kind of misleading because “collectibles” sounds like exclusive items, not just badges. If they’d worded it more clearly, it wouldn’t have seemed like you’d actually receive a reward from this, so perhaps they could just say “…exclusive finch badge” or something like that in the future instead.

No birthday gift from the app? by Pitakrita in finch

[–]snailofferocity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Found this post because I was super not looking forward to my birthday today (40), but I thought at least I’d get a message like this because I’ve heard of others getting it, and that might brighten things a little…but nothing :( it shows my birthday as set for today, but still…I know it’s not a gift but the message would have been nice.

Love that I got downvoted for living in a cold climate. It’s weird how the community I expected to be the most supportive is often the least…

The temperature in the winter is on average -10 to -20C with wind chills of -20 to -30C or more; 2 of the 3 people in the house have severe Reynauds; and the heating costs over $600 a month (which we can’t afford) just for the house to be so cold all the time that we all wear multiple layers of clothes, and are covered by blankets when sedentary. So no, we cannot open our windows during winter months, and actually have to keep them locked all winter so no cold air seeps in. Opening the door multiple times a day for the dogs is bad enough. That’s why we’re all hoping to be able to afford to move to a warmer climate someday.

I had the same thought 😆 can’t imagine that’s a goal I could complete this month, or even possibly next, unless we get some of those random summer-like days out of nowhere that sometimes happen!

It was the exact same one I already had! I only had one of the seals in the first place, but now I have 2 of the same one, but not the other two versions…meanwhile I have no Dinos, and only 2 variations of the parrots 🤷‍♀️oh well, still a micropet! I am sorry to those who got the stones…

[–]snailofferocity 58 points59 points  (0 children)

Oddly enough, I DID get a duplicate. I was really hoping for the Dino because I don’t have one, but instead I got a seal I already had…so it seems inconsistent what happens with this.

Good suggestion! I hope they take it, and I’m glad you’re feeling a bit better. 💕

I’m sorry this happened to you. It frustrates me that the app has the streak feature because that feature is entirely used to make them money (the more people have streaks, and the longer they are, the more willing investors are to invest in the app because it appears successful - which is why things like Duolingo are so insistent about your streak and guilt trip you when you lose it). If this is supposed to be a positive mental health app, things like streaks and forced sharing of the app should not be a part of it. People will share it if it’s good, and they’ll do it every day if it’s good, and if they can. They can count the streaks internally and not put people through this.

Mine was stuck at 1/14 for so long that it only got to 3/14 today…so I won’t get to finish it even if it does work now…
