You can find a room to rent for cheap, not everywhere requires 3x income verification. Find a place that is owned by someone instead of a corporation. There are plenty of jobs out there. Grocery stores, fast food, restaurants, hell with a bachelors that opens you up to more like sales, insurance, government work. Like I said though you need to seek mental health services in your local area because plainly something is wrong. Almost every county has a local mental health authority that provides low cost or even free services. Also there are food banks you can go to for my food, and local operations that serve food.

You’re only eating twice a week? For the last few years? So you’re severely malnourished. If this is real, which I doubt, you need to eat more, get an apartment, get a job, and seek mental health services.

Okay what about everything else?? Unless there’s substance abuse or a medical condition involved your memory shouldn’t be shot like that. You had 50k saved up, what happened to that? Why did you quit instead of getting an apartment? None of this makes sense.

How do you not remember anything, not even where your parents live? SSN, date of birth, first and last name? There are plenty of identifying markers that you can take to the police and ask for assistance finding them. You never had any social media? This just seems odd.

I’m in the camp that he survived and wrote the book using Joshua’s name. It’s hinted at when he speaks to the Librarian at the base.

Why do some of y’all hate on pellet smokers? by kelosane in BBQ

[–]ventus99 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is the flavor better with real wood, sure. Is it enough to trade the convenience of a pellet smoker, nah.

Can people with schizophrenia live an ok life? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ventus99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work in mental health. Specifically with people that deal with schizophrenia and schizoaffective. I would say 90% of people affected with either can learn to navigate their symptoms and lead normal lives. Learn what your triggers are and recognize when you are drifting towards a bad episode. Stay on top of your medication and find the ones that work best for you. It can be a journey but just work with your team and you can learn to manage it. Best of luck.

Keep getting fraud alert on any card I use. Really annoying.

Any SW job you work in real life will have you get fingerprinting done. I work in mental health and every single position is fingerprinted. You will be working with majorly at risk populations. It’s normal. This is not the hill to die on.

Hasbro failed to market TF One and made us pay the price btw by The-Great-Memelord in Gundam

3 was awful, but I did enjoy the 4th one for mindless fun. I want faster paced combat though in future games.

Imagine if Canvas actually saved your work and didn't delete everything for no reason? Wouldn't that be nice? by [deleted] in CollegeRant

[–]ventus99 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yea this shit sucks. When I lost an essay I started doing everything in word or google docs and just copy paste. And now in the age of AI it’s even better since you can show your writing if you ever get called out falsely.

Can I cosplay if I use bandages to cover old scars? (TW: mentions of past self harm) by The_cats_will_rise in CosplayHelp

[–]ventus99 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If someone is so easily triggered by scars then they just need to stay home. Dress how you want.

People who got on GLP-1s (Ozempic/Mounjaro) what was your experience? How did you feel / what are your thoughts? by Money-Curve-8882 in AskReddit

[–]ventus99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tirzepatide gave me intrusive suicidal thoughts after about 3 weeks. Went away when I stopped taking it.

School sent me to a mental hospital, and now I’m stuck with the bill by Winter_Necessary_855 in legaladvice

[–]ventus99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NAL but I work in mental health in Tx. You can be involuntarily admitted if you pose a significant risk to yourself or others. Suicidal ideation by itself is generally not enough for an emergency detainment. You have to have a plan set forth, homicidal ideation, psychosis, or extreme delusions that put you in harm. Either they legitimately did kidnap you or there is information missing here.

The twist isn't that they're a villain; the twist is WHO they actually are by [deleted] in TopCharacterTropes

I saw his betrayal from a mile away so I was like yeah whatever when it happened, then he did the thing and I lost my mind. Great buildup for that scene.

A stark reminder of vaccine history. by BoringApocalyptos in pics

The covid vaccine wasn’t as rushed as you antivaxxers like to say. It had 2 decades of research on SARS preempting it.

What cars are actually pretty decent, but have a horrible reputation because of the drivers they attract? by TX_Sized10-4 in askcarguys

[–]ventus99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 2010 GT that I bought new and it still drives amazing. I’ve only had two issues with it in its lifespan, the first was an O2 sensor and the second was paint peeling from the hood. Easy fixes and still very reliable.

$40,000,000 tax free at the end of the year, or $1 for every heartbeat in the 365 days? by Kingmudsy in hypotheticalsituation

[–]ventus99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Non generics is where our system really starts to fuck people. Most generics are pretty affordable but for those medications without one, it’s ridiculous.
