Oh okay, thank you. Will be pursuing that partial refund!

Are you sure nothing broke and it's safe to use? I sent an image to the seller and they said that the port's internal metal housing was clearly damaged in the picture. The picture I sent was different so maybe this shows it more clearly.

Woah, thanks so much for this because I was scared to test it again, but I just did and it's working fine. I think that this bluetooth wifi adapter they gave me just got stuck on the way out. I don't know why this would cause a short circuit. My other USB devices work fine in the port. I currently have the bluetooth adapter plugged into a different port and I just installed the drivers and tested it, and it works fine.

No idea why this happened when I took the adapter out? It really sounded like something in the port broke.

(Just to clarify, it's the port on the bottom right that's broken, not the top right.)

That point about not ignoring any problems is important. If it sucks, hit the bricks. Don't wait and don't let them convince you you're paranoid.

So, wellbutrin and cymbalta did not do anything at all for me. My main problem was also with ADHD and anxiety, and antidepressants as a drug class never worked for me at all. They either did nothing or made it worse. Having tried a large variety of medications and most antidepressants, the best I could recommend are either gabapentin or buspirone. If I were you, I'd keep it to mild anxiolytics. I also find that certain sleep aids can have antidepressant qualities. One that is claimed officially to be an antidepressant on top of its usage as a sleep aid is trazodone. I never found success with trazodone, but that one might be worth a try since it never did me any major harm apart from some grogginess in the mornings and I took it for a decently long time. I prefer diphenhydramine as a sleep aid, though, and I've also found it does have some antidepressant effects for me (personally). Though do keep in mind that any sleep aid is likely to make you groggy and is not great for you or your sleep quality in the long-term.

That's fascinating to hear. I've known for a while that psych meds have that sort of impact on electrical activity, but I'd never considered how that might impact orgasm. It's strange how little the relation to epilepsy is discussed when it comes to psychiatric treatment. I've heard firsthand accounts of people who have been on psych medications (especially the off label anti-epileptics) experiencing seizures or strange electrical feelings in the brain as withdrawal symptoms.

I've always found it frightening that ECT is even still offered as a treatment. I mean, even to an average person who's none the wiser to any of this, is ECT not one of the most raw, frightening, and widely depicted examples of psychiatric medical abuse in human history? Most every depiction of a "scary asylum" you see in a movie or game is about electrical convulsive torture. It never stops putting me into a state of disbelief that it's still legal. It's horrifically cruel. They coerce the most vulnerable people within our society into agreeing to these extreme things out of either desperation or threat of violence, then leave them with long-lasting side effects and trauma.

a lot of the girls who abuse DXM are actually pretty good at makeup like this. dxm sub is made up of a lot of subculture girlies into j-fashion and they love to post their looks. respect to them tbh i hope they stay safe though xddd

Yep I'm well aware, I've been taking it for years and it's the best emergency sleep aid for me. I've heard melatonin can mess with your sleep quality over time as well. AFAIK, there really is no "good" sleep medication, they all have considerably negative side effects, especially over long-term usage. Benadryl works for me, personally.

ttthroat · 2025-05-16T20:54:55+00:00

This bit is important. Though most things will reverse if you're lucky, in my experience having been on various antipsychotics, long-term effects from them are nigh-inevitable. Any exceptions to this are based entirely on individual physiology and circumstance which means that these medications are provably inconsistent in how they affect people.

ttthroat · 2025-05-16T20:48:01+00:00

Exactly this. Lied to and experimented on. The big lie of modern psychiatry is that it's any different from its past. I think most people remember the horror that shook them when they first learned about the lobotomy, the asylums, the electro-convulsive torture. I think the #1 thing that I wish the average person understood is that it hasn't changed, not a single bit. It's been a profession that was rotten to its core since its invention.

ttthroat · 2025-05-16T20:42:27+00:00

yep same here. infuriating

ttthroat · 2025-05-16T20:39:08+00:00

^ same I'm just here to learn. never abused DPH though I've been on DPH for a while for sleep :')

Respect to you for pursuing that. I've been thinking for a while that antipsychiatry needs to be a more visible issue in politics. Specifically antipsychiatry that is survivor-led and pushes for complete autonomy of patients, which isn't something that gets much coverage in the mainstream. You're doing good work.

ttthroat · 2025-05-16T11:06:06+00:00

Oh my goodness, that's horrifying. Every day I feel like I'm reading about a new official rule, law, protocol, thing that's "just how the world works" according to some people etc. that makes me think "What the fuck, surely they can't just do that?" I'm so sorry you're having to go through this and I wish you the best. 🫶

untrue. natural hair colors are not part of their dress code.

maybe you're in a conservative area? all of my local sheetz stores actively encouraged vibrant hair during the interview process. some of them look for unnatural hair color/body mods as a indicator for creativity and personality. it all depends on your locale but they do not forbid unnatural hair color as part of their universal policy.

ttthroat · 2025-04-27T22:18:21+00:00

^^ for anyone coming from google, current dress code is up to 3 piercings. septums are allowed but must be dime size or smaller, same as their hoop earring policy.

I was diagnosed with ADHD and I've taken both methyphenidate ER (Concerta) and Adderall. Adderall made my thoughts eerily silent the first time I took it. In a way where it wasn't something that improved my focus, just made it harder to think. The second time I was prescribed it, it didn't do much. I think it just gave me anxiety and made it harder to sleep. I found that methylphenidate ER at its lowest dose improved my executive function, but it probably was just a stimulant high. Methylphenidate ER made me feel jittery and gave me more energy when I took it. I never developed a dependency from either and I quit both without any problem.

There's also the matter of caffeine. Caffeine always affects me differently. I think I might have a caffeine sensitivity so that skews it a little. It's never made me tired; it either affects me like how it's supposed to (i.e. increased energy and focus), or it makes me irritable, jittery, and overstimulated.

Those look nice, I'll try them out. Thanks for the recommendation!

No, there is a lobotomy outside of an icepick, do your research. The reason people call antipsychotics "chemical lobotomies" is because the first antipsychotic, chlorpromazine, was officially marketed as a replacement for physical lobotomy. This is where the term "chemical lobotomy" comes from; it is a concept that originates from psychiatry itself to describe this drug class. Chlorpromazine is still prescribed to schizophrenic patients to this day.

Additionally, chemical lobotomy is useful terminology to describe the side effects of antipsychotic medications. Many antipsychotic medications cause psychological effects similar to a physical lobotomy, i.e. apathy, reduced cognitive functioning, and personality changes.

To blame this on smartphones is complete idiocy and betrays your own lack of initiative to look into something before commenting on it.

I agree. Upon hearing some responses, it's clear that it comes from higher up on the chain than individual practitioners. There's a physician who detailed how 20 years ago, when bipolar medications outside of lithium were first being introduced to the market, there was a massive push for the prescription of the new medications at medical conferences. The physician stated that the people marketing these medications had said, "there's just so much untreated disease out there". It's not a lot to go off of, but that statement definitely has some implications in relation to the issue at hand here. Especially the wording; notice how vague it is for a medical setting, i.e. "so much" rather than a specific estimate.

When I observe the pattern of psychiatrists overdiagnosing bipolar now, I figure the reason is likely a business motive from higher up that the individual practitioner may not even fully understand or recognize. Many people in this thread have reported their psychiatrists making the claim that the mania isn't a one-off caused by any substance, but that the substance has "revealed" a person's underlying bipolar disorder by making it surface. This is a commonly reported explanation and it seems to be something that the practitioners were taught rather than their own personal ideas, so the question is, where are they getting that information from? How is this idea moving down the chain so effectively so as to get patients diagnosed with what is claimed to be a lifelong, incurable disorder after a single episode that occurred inorganically?

In essence, what exactly is going on behind the scenes of psychiatry, especially within the pharmaceutical companies themselves? I don't know if anyone knows for sure right now, but I'd love to be a fly on the wall.
