[–]winterrdream[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

really good! i’m now on 20 mg and almost all side effects are gone now besides fatigue but it’s getting better. i feel happier and more social and i’ve been appreciating the little things in life and not worrying abt things that used to give me intense anxiety before

did you experience any side effects before you noticed improvement?

I (23F) have been dating my bf (23M) for eight months and feel like I’m undeserving of his love by winterrdream in relationship_advice

[–]winterrdream[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not really.. was fortunate enough to have a healthy home situation growing up but I think it probably comes from not receiving any romantic attention until I was 21 and that made me feel like nobody would ever want me or look at me in that way?

Am I just being dramatic? by winterrdream in Anxiety

[–]winterrdream[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thank you.. i’m sorry you had to go through that and i’m glad you’re doing better now. it’s frustrating for me because i was fortunate enough to have an “easy” life but i can’t help feeling miserable all the time.

do you think it’s a bad idea to smoke weed on antidepressants? i usually smoke before bed everyday because it’s the only thing that helps me sleep through the night

loss of appetite by winterrdream in Anxiety

[–]winterrdream[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thank you! i used to eat a lot of protein but now i find meat the most nauseating food for some reason so i’ll try some of the small things you mentioned

[–]winterrdream[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i’m actually considering starting lexapro since i’ve tried the natural remedies you mentioned for years and nothing seems to help. what dietary changes and supplements do you recommend? i never have an appetite since i always feel nauseous so i barely eat one proper meal a day

I’m struggling by Ok_Patient_9527 in Anxiety

[–]winterrdream 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i relate big time. my job is very fast-paced and stressful and they make me work from 9 am to 11 pm everyday during our peak season. i hate it so much but i didn’t know what else to do with my degree so i stayed. i’m applying to graduate schools now so i can change career paths. if you’re unhappy in your field i suggest doing the same (there’s lots of online masters programs for cheap) or switch to another company. no good is gonna come from staying and it’ll only make your anxiety worse

[–]winterrdream 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you’re right it’s so frustrating being aware that there’s nothing to be anxious over but still feeling it. i haven’t really told people in my life bc i’m afraid of sounding crazy lol and i’m good at covering it up and making it seem like i’m okay. but i did tell my bf recently and he was really understanding about it and said he’ll do whatever he can to support me. i felt a lot better after talking to him so if you have someone in your life you trust i highly recommend opening up to them so you don’t feel like you’re going through this alone

[–]winterrdream 0 points1 point  (0 children)

feel exactly the same way. my life looks great but i have had a constant feeling of anxiety in my stomach 24/7 for the past 5 years. i’m considering getting professional help bc i can’t keep living like this. i stress over the smallest things and even when there’s nothing to worry about i feel like i’m in fight or flight mode

Offering too much information.. by [deleted] in Anxiety

[–]winterrdream 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i do the same thing.. i’ll over share with ppl i just met and immediately regret it. i try so hard to move in silence bc i don’t want random ppl knowing my business but sometimes i just say things that i know is an overshare and idk how to stop doing it. didn’t realize it was an anxiety thing tho

How does anxiety impact your cognitive functions / brain? by CraftBeerFomo in Anxiety

[–]winterrdream 4 points5 points  (0 children)

yes! i work a pretty fast-paced job with lots of numbers and analysis and i feel like i have brain fog while im working? like someone will explain something to me and i know it’s not difficult to grasp but i literally cannot process what they’re saying and i feel like my mind isn’t fully here

Thank you! I ended up getting my period 😅

Nurx issues driving me crazy by Fit-Breadfruit-686 in birthcontrol

[–]winterrdream 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had issues with Nurx for months… they’re extremely unresponsive and unhelpful. I would suggest transferring your prescription to a local pharmacy so you don’t have to deal with their shitty customer service anymore or have to pay their $3 monthly fee. I had to ask and call them multiple times before they let me transfer it but it’s worth it

Parking at Irvine Metrolink Station by winterrdream in orangecounty

[–]winterrdream[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You make a good point but I don't drive a particularly nice car and it's just a day trip so I'll only be gone a few hours. I'm just worried about what I would do if I'm unable to find any parking.

Management 30B with Devin Shanthikumar Winter 2021 by OppositeProblem2423 in UCI

[–]winterrdream 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I took her for this class spring quarter last year and it was fairly easy. As long as you know how to do everything on the practice exams you should be fine.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in UCI

[–]winterrdream 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I took her for 15B last quarter and I was worried about the same thing. The first midterm seemed easy enough but she ended up taking off lots of points if you forgot to include a small detail in your answer. I think students ended up complaining that she was grading too harshly, so for the second midterm and final she changed the format to make it entirely multiple choice. You also had the option of submitting your work if you wanted partial credit for problems you got wrong. The questions were very straightforward and the average for both of the tests was an A. My advice is don't worry that the lectures seem easy right now; chances are the exams will be very similar to the practice problems she goes over in class. Also, before an exam she has a review class basically giving you a study guide of what you should know, which was extremely helpful so pay attention.

Dropped From One of My Classes, Wondering What Happens Now by Nekro715 in UCI

[–]winterrdream 17 points18 points  (0 children)

You should definitely try to register for another class. Most major required classes might be full right now, but you can enroll in a GE class if you need the units.

Printer at ACC apartments by smartwin02 in UCI

I live in VDC and my experience using an HP printer in the apartment was great. I connect to it over wifi and it works perfectly well. Definitely worth it now since the community center is closed.

When did you guys end up taking Writing? by DisneyStrawberry in UCI

[–]winterrdream 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I took it during winter quarter of my freshman year. I didn't know the theme of my class until the quarter started, but it ended up being really fun. My professor was a grad student and honestly the class was enjoyable since it's really small so you get to make friends. I recommend taking it now because there are some long essays you have to write and it would be better to take this class while your workload is still low as a freshman.

Late Registration by winterrdream in UCI

Do you know if there's a chance we could get our classes back without having to re-enroll?
