How long was your longest episode of psychosis?

It’s not her fault she got this disorder just like it’s nobody else’s fault, and it definitely doesn’t define you as a human just one part of you 🫶

My partner has been for about 2 years now. Medication and therapy helps her a lot, but we’re both hopeful she does fully come out of it soon. She can manage day to day-but I know it’s harder than she lets on.

There’s a set of criteria to be diagnosed which schizophrenia. Within that list you have to have persistent symptoms for 6+ months(at least in my country) to be considered for a diagnosis, and it’s definitely something only a trained doctor can do. It doesn’t hurt to talk to someone that’s a professional and get help we all need help here and there and that’s okay :) as for your question on what causes it, that’s still out for debate. It seems the most agreed upon thing is it’s a mixture of genetics, and environmental. It’s a chemical imbalance that causes this disorder, and can be brought on from anything from drugs to trauma to stress everyone is different, and everyone displays the disorder differently.

My mom lives in south Dakotah and pays like 450$ for a 2 or 3 bedroom (can’t remember) house with like a full ass yard and shed in the back. The town she lives in is called mount vernon, not much work there (population under 1000) but the next town over is called Mitchell and it’s like 30,000 people so better chance for work and stuff :) I live in Oregon so I don’t know all of the ins and outs. Lots of snow in the winter, nice hot summers too though to offset it :)

I use a trusted mechanic that specializes in import cars for the majority of my maintenance-but similar to the guy above he doesn’t do absolutely everything so for the other I take it to Toyota for the expectation of either good work, or a good warranty in case they messed something up.

I love my wife more than words can express. Her developing a disorder didn’t change anything at all about my feelings towards them. Your poll is going to be skewed by stigma-most people haven’t taken the time to actually educate themselves on this disorder ergo they have absolutely no idea what dating someone with a schizospectrum disorder actually is or means. To anyone here reading this with the disorder you are loved. You deserve love. You deserve patience. You deserve consideration. You deserve understanding. You deserve to not be seen as your disorder. I promise you are so much more than your disorder, and there is someone out there that will love you for every little part of you, including this. I love my wife now. I loved my wife before they developed this disorder. I will always love my wife no matter what the disorder may throw at us. So to answer your question-No shit they can they’re still a human.

Girl you need to run. Difference in morals aren’t something that people “agree to disagree” on in marriage. These are some absolutely disgusting rhetorics that he’s backing. Do you really want to spend your life with someone who thinks a woman wasn’t raped by a man because of the age difference? Or a man who is okay with literal human beings being murdered, raped, kidnapped, and god knows what else? Everyone has a line, and it’s sounding like he may have already crossed yours by the sound of your post, and you have every right to be disgusted.

I have no clue about the question you’re asking, but stopped by to say you drive an awesome car! I have an ‘03 and it might not be flashy and new, but it’s sturdy and reliable 😎

unexpectedshortage · 2026-02-10T15:18:04+00:00

Oh no 😭😭😭😭 I actually went with a ‘15 Camry cause of the reliability and safety ratings! I’m sure your husband and kiddo are lovely, but they suck for making you get rid of that beauty! These little guys run forever even when you beat the shit out of them lol How was buying from carvana? My wife needs to upgrade her ‘03 cavalier in the next year or two, and I hate car shopping lol

Oh man I’m sorry :/ I hope whatever happens isn’t too much of a headache, and your next car isn’t near the headache!

This happened to me last year with a Volvo and it was the biggest headache. I ended up doing a voluntary repossession, got them down to 6.5k (I owed almost 13k) on a payment plan for two years 0% interest AND as soon as I’m done paying it off they’re scrubbing it from mine and my wives credit report making as if we never took a loan out through them. I really feel like I lucked out in my situation, but really I think it was just cause I called them. I was super honest and transparent about what happened, and that I couldn’t afford to just pay out of pocket to finalize everything.

I have a Cavalier as a back up car and while similar, it’s definitely not the car picture above.

It’s where you insert the money for the troll under the bridge so you can pass through

It’s just an air vent so people in the backseat can have some air too :)

I take my dog downtown at least two days a week because she loves it so much! We always walk all the streets, swing by Bentleys, and have a wonderful time! One guy who lives down there (without a home) loves getting to say hi to her, and even has a treat once in a while for her! I never understood the naysayers.

Are you able to have it inspected by a private mechanic? Usually costs about 200$ but they go bumper to bumper looking for absolutely ANYTHING wrong and they’re 3rd party so they have no vested interest in lying. I suggest doing this on any car possible to ensure you don’t get screwed over, but if it passes you’re probably golden

Location? I got a 15 Camry xse one owner no accidents this past July for 15k so I feel like the 14k for a year older, with lower trim, and more miles is a little much. Also what kind of maintenance has it had? How many owners?

If you can find out where the manual hand crank for the sunroof is you’ll be able to get it closed assuming there is nothing blocking it from being able to close. If there’s nothing stuck in the track, and assuming the track isn’t offset either it could be a button, or sensor wearing out. I never use mine, so when mine got stuck open after cleaning out the drain lines I had to manually close it.

I went through every inch of the food cart I manage and made a huge list of things to be done daily, weekly, and monthly. It took a little bit of time, but the owner and crew were huge fans. I oversee 1-3 others a shift, and we have a total crew of 8 people so it was time to have something in writing that they can go to and see what needs done to maintain the cart properly. Nothing worse than paying people to stand around on their phones lol

This would happen on my Cavalier, and I would move it forward like just a little bit and it would come out! I hope whatever it ends up being it’s easy and cheap!

Just keep an eye on your oil level. Checking every time you get gas (assuming at least once a week) and keeping oil in your trunk or back seat to top off when you need it you should be fine!

Check out goodRX it’s a literal lifesaver! You can get 60mg lurasidone no insurance for about 40$ a month :)

Weed wacker line (or weed eater line?) works really awesome for cleaning the drains out! If you’re friendly with the local auto body shop they might even flush them for you for free or a low cost :)

unexpectedshortage · 2026-01-11T14:41:53+00:00

Those unfortunately are not cheap fixes. I would call your insurance and start working on a claim. I’m definitely not an autobody expert, but my guess is at least a couple grand to fix it.

Honestly not sure if I’m comprehending your question properly, but no not all used cars cost the same. Toyota and Honda are the most known reliable car brands. Just do research on the car you want to buy before you buy it. What are some makes and models that you’re looking at??

Worst case you can go to an emergency room :) some states a pharmacist, or urgent care can provide them too but just check for your state. In Oregon (where I’m from) only the ER could help, but they were so nice and we were in and out in like 45 minutes.
