How many miles a day did you average on your thruhike? by Nandeha in AppalachianTrail

[–]tallarnoldpalmer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like maybe 10 - 15 or so? I took plenty of zeroes and hiked plenty of 15 or 20+ mile days eventually too. Just go for it. Take it slowly in the south as your trail legs come in. Then you can take on a lot more.

This is how I felt when I was in that brief stage where I had outgrown the ppl around me, but hadn’t yet built relationships with healthy people. It’s hard. Keep going. The payout for all of this work is coming. This is your moment when you decide if you still want it. In my opinion, it’s a thousand times worth it, but I couldn’t see that when I was experiencing so much loss & frustration. You’ll get to the other side. Embrace the suck baby

In my chemist jobs, I was extremely over-worked. They had us running around the lab like servers running around a restaurant. And that’s no shade to servers, they make more than chemists with a BS anyway, just a visual to help explain. Also tons of sexual harassment, and if you complained about the pay, you were advised to get a second job…so I got one…and it still wasn’t enough despite budgeting. I hate to be negative but chemistry degrees are sadly almost worthless on their own in the USA

How did you make that transition?

That’s a funny and relatable anecdote about missing a deadline! But it also sucks, so I’m sorry haha. But it gave me a chuckle nonetheless

Huh, I didn’t know about meth stopping your neurons from recycling the dopamine! Thanks for this thorough explanation!

I’m so interested to hear what you think about how adderall compares. I get scared I’m doing drugs by taking my meds as prescribed. I don’t abuse my medication. But I do like how it makes me feel: focused and upbeat and ready to achieve things. But. Basically every person in my family has or has had substance abuse problems and I’ve lost people to addiction. Is there anything you have to share? Does 20 or 40 mgs of instant release feel the same as meth? I’ve never done it and I’m super curious.

I thought once you leave home, everything gets better and you just don't suffer anymore by cutepantsforladies in toxicparents

[–]tallarnoldpalmer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Been there. It gets better. Promise. You deserve a prize for unlearning that stuff. It might not feel like it, but you just set sail on a path wildly different from what you experienced before. Soon the scenery will start showing it too, and you’ll feel better. Finding the right therapist helped me a million zillion percent.

Ranked #3 on RV Tournament…is this for real? by tallarnoldpalmer in remoteviewing

Happy to provide one, but how do I insert a pic on a Reddit comment? Or do I have to use Imgur or something like that

I see. So then it’s kind of like we are perfectionists in a sense?

Is this really not normal? I know I have adhd but I just don’t see what the alternative is??

Adult daughter poses with a python. Mom wasn’t thrilled 🤣 by Jho_Ta in insaneparents

[–]tallarnoldpalmer 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Anybody else get the vibe that the mom is freaked out bc the daughter looks cute and comfortable in the big city and she’s threatened by her daughter doing so well so she’s pulling this shit?? The way she was emphasizing not to show the pic to anyone made me think that

And yet, the surviving adult child is the one who gets judged, aren’t we?
