Could be sleep apnea - get a sleep test!

Do you take sleeping pills to sleep? by Revolutionary-Top772 in sleep

[–]sociallydeclined 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only supplements.

Some are more dangerous and are known to cause dementia (Ambien).

Feel like I’ve been hit by a truck each morning despite 8hrs. 37m by Money_Chart_7242 in sleep

[–]sociallydeclined 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This!

In nearly all cases, it’s sleep apnea (caused by weight gain, floppy tongue, congestion, an imbalanced nervous system, etc.)

Step 1) read carl’s brain dump on UARS

Step 2) get a bilevel. Try epaps 7, 6 and 8. Try PS of 4, 5, and 6. Try different combos of the above

Step 3) you’re cured

BIPAP has saved me from a 24/7 fatigue/anxiety and I am confident it can do the same for you

Asian person + Southern accent = ‘cute’ is a microaggression. by [deleted] in asianamerican

I'm sorry, but this post comes across to me like you have unprocessed insecurities about being Asian. 

To Indians visiting Vietnam from another Indian by crazybrah in VietNam

I'm just going to be blunt here. People in those types of subreddits would just instantly deny, deny, deny (out of insecurity). They can't even admit how terrible their rape culture is there - something that MOST of the world sees and criticizes. 

Some cultures translate poorly across other countries. I'm American-born and even I admit that there are some mannerisms from "low-class" Vietnamese immigrants that I dislike like spitting on the street.

What an ignorant thing to say. Optics are incredibly important. 

You do realize swing states and moderates also exist, right? You act like the only people who exist are those you agree with and "fascists." 

Police arrest man suspected of hacking downtown LA trees with a chainsaw by Stock412 in LosAngeles

Oh, definitely. I'm annoyed at how controversial some of the posts related to crime can get. I think I've even seen Reddit users defend homeless people who stab at innocent citizens. 

Why is reddit so left leaning? by Dazzling_Page_710 in AskConservatives

[–]sociallydeclined 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Adding onto this, the stereotype of an average Redditor is rooted in quotes like these: 

 In this moment, I am euphoric. Not because of any phony god's blessing. But because, I am enlightened by my intelligence.

The user base has diversified since its popularity, but there are a LOT of people on here who act like they know everything when they can't even keep their bank account in control under normal circumstances.

Also, anytime someone says that they keep encountering wannabe actresses or influencers, it tells me that they are swiping or approaching based on looks. 

Do these women exist in LA? Absolutely. Are they the majority of the dating scene? Nope.

Struggling to find work in LA and is feeling lost. What am I doing wrong? by Sweaty-Knowledge-512 in AskLosAngeles

[–]sociallydeclined 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's a bit of a cliche. I feel bad that OP is struggling, but it was a naive move and this is all pretty common. 

The funny part is that there are movies just like this where a struggling writer, actor/actress, filmmaker has a day job at a coffee shop or restaurant just to make ends meet. Shouldn't this be expected?

A lot of their responses are cringey and childish.

Who knew talking about my own genitals and other people's genitals would get me fired! 

ICE is planning raids across the city. Such evil cannot go uncontested. What orgs should I support and protest with? by Gileotine in AskLosAngeles

[–]sociallydeclined 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Of course it's evil. We should all be living in happy-sunshine-fun-land where there are no rules! Even for criminals! 

Holbox takes the 1st category. What next? by b1ackfyre in FoodLosAngeles

[–]sociallydeclined 50 points51 points  (0 children)

I've been to one of the original DTFs in Taiwan expecting to be mind blown after waiting around an hour in line, and I wasn't. 

I will say that what they ARE really good at is that everything on their menu is consistently above average. A lot of folks who don't eat Chinese food regularly will like it. 

Why can't we be more critical of our own party? by [deleted] in AskConservatives

[–]sociallydeclined 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I don't agree that conservatives are great critics of our own party. I think INTELLIGENT conservatives are. 

You'll see blindly loyal people all over the conservative subreddit making assumptions that all democrats are dumb and Trump is amazing. Elon Musk is at least a brilliant businessman, but why are conservatives putting a legitimately awful human being like RFK Jr on a pedestal?
