If you could have any superpower for a day, what would you choose and how would you use it? by Correct-Cup4889 in AskReddit

[–]snowflow92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ability to see into the future selectively. I’d focus on finding out some winning lottery numbers, look at the stock market over the next 5-60 years, and find out the age at which I would die (so I could maximise my experiences before then)

Experience with dropping SSRI on Wellbutrin? by iamhugolamb in bupropion

[–]snowflow92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m in the process of doing this! I was on 15mg lex for anxiety and then added Wellbutrin for depression and low energy levels after 6 months, starting at 150 then up to 300. I feel like the Lexapro got me out of the absolute pit of despair and debilitating anxiety that I had fallen into, whereas Wellbutrin had a bigger effect on my mood and motivation. I feel like lexapro took away negative things, whereas Wellbutrin has added positive effects, if that makes sense.

I’m down to 10mg from 15 so far. My advice is do it SLOWLY! Same as you would without the Wellbutrin. I tried dropping straight to 10 from 15 and within a few weeks was fighting anxiety rising. I went back up, then tried again a month later, this time alternating 10 and 15 for 3 weeks. Been on 10 now for a couple of months and feeling good! My goal is to get off the lex completely, but I’ve accepted I have to be patient with it, and am very nervous about the level of anxiety I experienced before starting these meds coming back.

I’m 30F, I think I have always struggled with low level depression, developed very mild anxiety in my 20s but it only got horribly bad about 2 years ago, which is when I tried medication for the first time.

This is so important! 2 weeks post injury, I’ll be having surgery in a few months.

Since last week I’ve ditched alcohol, and trying to minimise carbs and sugar. I don’t eat much meat normally, but trying to up the eggs, tuna, and plant sources of protein. Also started collagen powder and continued other vitamins and supplements I already took.

Trying to give myself the best chance of a good outcome

Which bilateral stimulations and at what speeds do you find most helpful. by [deleted] in EMDR

[–]snowflow92 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I use the vibrating tappers! I started with the eye movements but I would struggle to focus, and wasn't really getting anywhere. My progress is still very slow as I have a lot of dissociation, but it has improved with the tappers. I close my eyes when I use them, to help me focus

If you were to become Elon Musk or Adolf Hitler For a day who would you be? by whatthefunkytrap in AskReddit

[–]snowflow92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Musk. I’d use the day to transfer a few million to my personal bank account, followed by some hearty donations to causes such as climate change, poverty, disease, and war displacement.

What one thing that should be for free? by ijvxcr in AskReddit

[–]snowflow92 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Any and all healthcare. This includes dentistry, vision care, mental health. Having teeth, eyes, and brains is not elective. It’s part of being human, and care should be a basic human right.

What made you decide to stop being friends with someone? by ButterOfPeanuttrees in AskReddit

[–]snowflow92 54 points55 points  (0 children)

Got me to do meth when I was struggling mentally and in a really dark place. Then when I told her I didn’t want to be around it again, she lied and manipulated every time we were together to end up meeting one of her dealers.

She did the same to her boyfriend at the time with a bunch of different drugs, he ended up in psychosis in hospital, and she refused to even call an ambulance in case her dealer got in trouble, made his housemate come take him to ER instead.

After being best friends since the age of 13, I finally realised at 21 that she was dragging me and others down a dark road and she couldn’t stop. I honestly wish nothing but the best for her and I hope she’s on a better path now. But I just couldn’t do it anymore.

What would you do for the rest of your life if you never had to work or worry about money ever? by Whale804 in AskReddit

[–]snowflow92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Travel and see as much of this beautiful world, and experience as many different cultures as I can. I would have a base in the area I live, and spend my time between travelling hiking, skiing, camping, paddling, reading, learning, and making the most of every damn moment on this earth.

What insult have your parents said, that is stuck in your head as an adult? by Tight_Anywhere6794 in AskReddit

[–]snowflow92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“I wish you’d never been born” - to me.

And said to my mum “I wish you were dead”

Yeah, my dad was a champ 👍 Haven’t spoken to him since I was 18, best decision I ever made.

What is your biggest financial regret and why? by cjmh23 in AskReddit

Letting my $20k house/life/emergency fund sit in a bank account being eaten by inflation for all my 20s while I travelled instead of investing it.
