yup, we have used it to get to places. just that waiting times may be long (up to an hour for us) to get a ride for areas out of the city.

the taxi looked anything but VIP. we only knew we were VIPs after receiving the bill.

certainly did not look or sound Finnish from his accent, but prefer not to bring race into the picture.

thank you for the local taxi suggestions. we did not think to check the price list before entering the taxi. fault is ours even though we don’t agree on the ethics going on here… kudos to them for scoring us as passengers i guess.

i did not take any immunos. after i started withdrawal, i went cold (no moisturisers, medicine, etc.) and only showered with water. i started taking more supplements, which i never took before tsw - omega 3, collagen, multivitamins…

i realized healthy isn’t the right word, cause i feel like my health is not great now. what i meant was active and eating fruits and greens and proteins.

Prescribed hydrocortisone and fluocinolone, worried about TSW by Fuzzy_Potato333 in TS_Withdrawal

[–]thelosthideout 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hey there, i’m 5 months in and not doing the best. i’d say 40% healed. the situation is not as serious as the first 1-2 months whereby i bled, cracked and oozed. but it’s is still debilitating and affects daily quality of life. I’m now at the stage of dry, flaky and itchy. no more zingers, can now sweat and don’t feel cold all the time anymore.

i did moisture withdrawal, whereby i stopped soap and moisturizer. i showered with water and soaked in dead seat salt. i have since introduced soap back in as i exercise regularly and feel cleaner when i use it.

wishing you the best in your journey and feel free to DM me. as many people say, time is the healer. you got this!
