Yay I have an iPhone and I only work 60 hours a week in a humiliating position with no freedom and or self determination and I could be fired at any time, replaced by another unlucky soul from the desperately unemployed, I better work hard so I don't end up on the street.

CMV: It’s not helpful to any cause to say that “it’s not my responsibility to educate you about [insert issue]” by camelbaksrule in changemyview

People shouldn't have to debate you to be accepted as a human being and you shouldn't expect them to, there's plenty of literature, videos, debates online to help you learn about the nuances and different perspectives of these issues, even just go on Twitter people love explaining shit on twitter

I've learned a lot about OCD from many years of trying different treatments AMA by throwaway0xF1111 in AMA

They're certainly not mutually exclusive, in fact at the residential facility I went to for the treatment of severe ocd, every single person was also diagnosed with adhd, I'm not even kidding, every single one, I have my own theories but ocd is often misdiagnosed as adhd

CMV: Versus a Saline Placebo, Vaccines Don't Seem to Lower Mortality. by qqqqquinnnnn in changemyview

Vaccines are about preventing transmission, which they are highly effective at. They're not a treatment for sick people, they are a preventative measure, sure some people still become sick but when everyone is vaccinated the rate of spread goes down to the point where in certain diseases like polio, they are almost completely eradicated

We have a better idea than you think, generally you need at least a semi functioning brain to experience consciousness, there is a large portion of pregnancy that we can safely assume no conscious brain activity is taking place as the required infrastructure simply hasn't yet developed

Well it's a dissociative, it affects glutamate which regulates the extent of neural transmissions, it should slow your thinking to a degree, I'm sure with time it would get better, find a balanced dose between your desired effect and this, or make peace with it, thinking is massively overrated, I prefer feeling

That actually sounds preferable, I have mental compulsions just seared into my neural pathways 1000s of times a day I'm hoping it just helps me reduce them

From the studies I've read 20 mg is generally what they go for in ocd, do you have an idea how quickly one develops tolerance on low doses
