  • did you get the thing where you could hear your eyeballs moving?

    OMG yessss!! But it wasn't like I could literally hear my eyeballs moving. I wasn't a sound. It was like a feeling in my ears as if moving my eyeballs would tickle or vibrate my inner ear.

    I'm happy the stabbing didn't result in much worse. Glad you're still around 🙂

  • That sucksssss. I remember feeling the zaps for a few nights and feeling entirely disconnected from reality. I couldn't tell if I was awake or in a dream. I would close my eyes and fantasize about whatever I could to pretend I was somewhere else to ride it out. Then when at work during the day, I was pretending that I wasn't exhausted from severe lack of sleep. I would have to go to the bathroom to take breaks and recover a little and convince myself everything was okay. I even asked someone I got a long with to make sure I didn't look weird or did anything stupid.

    Seems like the withdrawal hit you a lot harder than me, so I can't even imagine how difficult that was to endure.

  • What's up with some people worried that others think they're gay? If anyone wants to think I'm gay, go for it. Think whatever you want. I don't get it.

  • I get that they work and are quite helpful to many people, but I will never take another SSRI in my life again. I hate them things. They make me feel dead. It's like tricking my mind into pretending everything is okay and jolly by becoming stupid and unaware to the reality of the overall situation. If I feel depressed, it's for a reason, and the solution is to address that reason, not pretend it doesn't exist or it's fine. It's like if you are in a situation where your leg is broken and can't heal, would you rather take an opiate to numb the pain or change the situation so your leg can heal? I guess my issue wasn't necessarily a serotonin imbalance 🤷

  • I've been having my morning coffee outside every morning, and that's been helpful. I take it as it telling my body it's day time.

    Waking up at the same time everyday even if i go to sleep late.

    I set an alarm for 1 hr before I wake up to take my meds. When I wake up, I'm ready to go rather than drag butt around the entire house until I feel awake.

    If you can find an avenue, check in with someone every morning to tell them how you feel. It can be as simple as a word or longer. This makes you notice so you can adjust as necessary. It also may help you feel bonded or at least less alone.

    Daily walks at night when the world has stopped, no one is outside, it's quiet and dark. I put on headphones and take my dog. I can walk and look as ridiculous as I want and be free from everyone's opinions and judgments.

    Make sure you do at least 1 productive thing towards a long-term goal per day, even if it's super simple. I have a few long-term goals broken down into lists, so I go through them and pick at least one thing to check off. I usually go with ones I feel like doing that day.

    Edit: Do something artistic/creative at least once/week. No boundaries, no goals, no intent. Just go with how you feel and see what comes out.

  • Why does that happen? Is the pipe to the bathroom wider than the kitchen sink?

  • Yep! When I want to shower, I run the hot water in the sink at the same time. It speeds it up by almost half.

  • Cool! I'm good with the way it is now since I'm used to it. It's not a big deal. I know it wasn't for me specifically, but I appreciate the recommendation.

  • Hi, Rudy! 👋😀

  • That I'm autistic and signs of psychological abuse.

  • Nice! Maybe the right one could be Anne Hathanear since the hat is near her.

    Another concept if you would like to actualize it:

    Anne Hathaway

    • Anne in a field on clear pathway

    Anne Hathnoway

    • Anne trapped in a cage or within 4 walls without a pathway
  • AuDHD here. I got put on Buspar for anxiety once. It worked amazingly well at getting rid of anxiety. Unfortunately, I learned that anxiety was the only way I accomplished anything meaningful. I would have to be anxious that I would disappoint someone or something would result in terrible outcomes if I didn't do it. When the Buspar got rid of anxiety, I lost my drive to accomplish anything. I remember telling the doc, "I don't feel like doing anything. I just sit there." So, I was taken off of it.

    My personal psychological intervention for ADHD was military training instilling discipline and increasing anxiety to illicit the military discipline to avoid doom. In other words, I accomplished everything meaningful by pretending I was in war. Accomplishments weren't accomplishments to celebrate. They were avoidance of harm to feel relieved by. A life full of fear rather than pleasure and pride.

    omg I can't believe I just figured that out rn lol 😆
