2023.06.04 09:18 ConsiderationRude854 Covid causing medication resistance
I heard there are studies now proving my theory. Anyone heard of Covid Causing Medication Resistance ? Mine has been primarily antidepressant resistance . They say the covid shot or covid caused a genetic change which is making it difficult for mental health treatment. I was on anafranil for 3 years and it worked wonders , got my covid booster, and boom since then antidepressants aren’t working on my body ! They make me sick or worse mentally .

2023.06.04 09:14 Tazz104 60's Danelectro Baritone guitar to bass transformation
I recently got the body of an old dano baritone guitar and I want to turn it into a bass. I work at a guitar shop doing repairs and setups but this is way out of my league and I just want to try it. Ive been looking to find a neck online but none seem to have the base width I'm looking for (57mm). Should I route the neck pocket wider so I could fit a wider neck in? Any tips/advice would be greatly appreciated because I think it could turn out looking like an awesome bass

2023.06.04 09:13 FUJIMO1978 My explanation of PTSD and a Solid Solution
Been awhile since I have posted here. Cliff note version of my trauma(s). Dad killed mom when I was 1 year. 18 years of childhood hell. Fixed myself. Had a daughter with congenital heart condition and after massive effort to help her make it, I watched her die at age 3. Then 11 years of copious drinking to cope, only to die at the bottom of a pool drunk. 3 days my family was told I was brain dead, but I woke. Now, I'm here. 4 years sober and free from my past. I am "cured". Let me explain what cured means. I am not triggered my memories of my past. I just get triggered like everyone else does. Life triggers normies too. But, my past no longer comes flooding back. I continue to have a very sensitive limbic system. When life triggers me, my adrenaline response is much higher than a normie, but the difference between now and then, is my brain and body no longer fears it because my primitive brain doesn't believe that my trauma(s) are happening all over again.
How did I accomplish this?
For starters, I don't abuse substances. Period. Nothing will ever change is you are abusing drugs or alcohol. That must stop before the real work begins.
What do you mean by "real work"?
I mean, you gotta do the opposite of what you are doing now. Most of you when triggered do whatever you possibly can to shut that shit down. You bury it or you cover it up with substances. You don't let it wash over you and let it dissipate on its own accord. Why? Because who wants to feel those feelings or think those associated thoughts? Sorry to inform, but you must.
Why?
Simple. It's literally how your brain is wired. It's your primitive brain (amygdala) versus your thinking brain (prefrontal cortex). The pathways from the primitive brain to your thinking brain are super highways, but only back channels, side streets, and alley ways in reverse.
What does that mean?
When you are triggered, you cannot tell your primitive brain to chill out. You can't tell it that the trauma was actually 10 years ago and it's not happening right now. All it knows is it's triggered and freaks out in an effort to "save you".
How does this explain my intense reaction 10 years later?
Because you have a memory. You remember the trauma, your primitive brain freaks out because your adrenaline surges. But its One way communication. It's the same reason a herd of gazelle can watch one of their brothers be mauled by lion and 5 minutes later go back to munching grass like nothing ever happened. There is no thinking brain. Just a primitive brain. Gazelles don't get PTSD.
So what's the fix?
It begins Life Style Changes and pre-workout. It's is best to do all of the following under guidance of a licensed counselor especially trained in trauma informed care and CBT, but you can DIY. I did.
1.Stop drinking and using drugs. That's number 1. For obvious reasons, but you also can't be numbing yourself if you are going to train your primitive brain over time that the trauma is actually in the past. Think of it as downloading information. Those side street communication pathways are like 32k dial up internet speed. It'll take time.
It means you are #1. You come first and you carve out time each day engaging in things you enjoy, interest you and/ or pleasurable. You gotta develop these things. You also need to learn the 10 assertive rights of an individual as well as boundaries.
Now what? You do the work. This means dedicating whatever time you can handle each day processing your trauma. (Every single day). Maybe it's just 5 minutes maybe it's 30. The point being you try. The time will increase overtime. Thos could be a counseling session but doing this once a week in counsing is never enough and it will take you forever. You coudd spend time journaling your story. Coming to this site to read other peoples stories. Or maybe it's just think about the trauma. It's a conscience effort to do it but you are in control. Not your stupid primitive brain freaking out and forcing you to relive it.
For how long?
For just short of what you can handle. Could be 5 minute. Could be 1 hour, but no more than 1 hour. And while doing it, you engage in coping skills that you can also do at the same time: squeezing a stress ball, listening to relaxing music. Shit that helps you to stay grounded and present.
Then what?
This is the most important part. You have processed and now you are triggered. At the end of your time. 5 minutes to one hour sitting in the shit. You must immediately engage in a favorite assertive self care activity for a hour or at least until the adrenaline dissipates and you return to a baseline.
For me. And really anytime I feel really triggered.. because I still get adrenaline surges.. I kill shit on Xbox. So effective for me. You just have to find your things. Maybe it's crafting, waking and listening to music, watching a favorite show, cooking, video games, exercise etc.
What results can I expect?
Overtime you will increase the time you are able to spend time with your trauma and decrease the time it takes level off and return to baseline. You will slowly teach your primitive brain that the trauma is in the past and you no longer need to fear those feelings. You are safe.
You also you find yourself with a much more fulfilling life as you will constantly be assertively caring for yourself.
This IS NOT EZ. It is hard. You are literally doing what we should all have done when the trauma happened. But, you will see results faster than you think. If you are committed and do the work, you could see noticeable results in a few months or less. Probably less.
It's a new way of living. And it only continues to get better.
Lastly, I will repeat that although I DIYed this, I don't recommend. It is best to do this work under guidance of a therapist and especially to help you develop the skills necessary to do the real work.

2023.06.04 09:13 jk54545 One of the best 24mm F1.8 lens from a 3rd party manufacturer!
 | If you are looking for a wide-angle lens for Nikon Z mount, Viltrox 24mm F1.8 Z mount lens is a Fantastic option at its price point. Here are the reasons why. submitted by jk54545 to glowingrectangles [link] [comments] The lens has an all-metal build right from mount to body to focus and aperture rings. Though the lens hood is plastic, it is compact and doesn’t feel cheap. 55mm Filter thread of the lens is not common and might add up to the expense for a new ND or CPL filters. The lens is compact and lightweight making it more balanced and practical to use. Although Viltrox 24mm F1.8 Z mount lens lack weather sealing, I was pleasantly surprised that it was able to protect the sensor of my Nikon Z6II from the dew formation during over-night filming of starts. Aperture ring makes some squeaky noise upon turning but it could be just from my copy. The grooves on the aperture ring makes it convenient to turn. Manual focus ring is just smooth and the it has relatively short focus throw which is convenient for photography. USB Type-C is available on the mount through which firmware updates can be made. This is neat! When mounted on my Nikon Z6ii camera, the autofocus performed adequately good. It is definitely not good enough to film fast moving subjects but it wasn’t hunting and was smooth enough not to cause any distraction. Autofocus motors are surprisingly quiet which is very good for videos. I use Wide Area AF face-tracking and Auto Area AF face-tracking modes depending on the situation. If the subject would move throughout the frame, then I would choose Auto Area AF mode and when filming interviews or making review videos, I would prefer Wide Area AF face-tracking mode. AF-F mode is my preferred AF mode for video to track the subject while in photos, I prefer AF-C mode. These are the AF settings that works best for Nikon Z6ii. Image quality from this lens is absolutely fantastic! Videos and photos are sharp and bokeh is smooth throughout the out of focus regions. There is a little vignetting around the corners that can be distracting at times, but if you are careful to embrace it, it could add character to your videos and photos. I am just amazed by the smoothness of the focus fall-off from the subject to the background. This is adorable. There is a tiny bit of chromatic aberration which can be cleaned up in post. Lens flaring is not much of an issue in regards to this lens. I purchased this lens mainly for the astrophotography and it did a good job! I started using this lens more often now for vlogging during lowlight. If I need a tighter short, I would just change the camera to DX-mode which would give me 36mm F2.7 Full Frame equivalent focal length. This is a very convenient combination. If you are in the market looking for a 24mm focal length prime lens, I would highly recommend you to check this out. This is a perfect lens for low light and street photography as well. You can find the latest firmware for Viltrox 24mm F1.8 Z mount here: https://viltrox.com/newsinfo/5907415.html |
2023.06.04 09:13 dabsvidsanya Anyone have Soy Food Allergy? HOW DO YOU DETOX FASTER?!
See TLDR on the bottom. Here's long story:
Hey guys. My soy allergy is pretty nasty. This last happened 3 years ago. I mean it's not as nasty as say, the poor folks out there who get the extreme life threatening reactions, but they suck. I know for a fact it's gonna be 2 weeks of basically never-ending adrenal state. Like panic attack. Hypersensitivity to pain and cold. Aggression, out of nowhere for no reason just, I am angry. I am irritable. I hate life.
So, this was snuck into cough drops by Kroger. Watch out, they did not list the soy oil ingridient which I then found on the government website. Anyway, I had four of those suckers before waking up with a panic attack, and a slew of other symptoms. Insomnia, indigestion, headaches, body aches, pain in left side under ribs, rash (only on right side of the body, like, deep cystic kind but it passed after 2 days yay), neck stiffness, and yes like I said 2 weeks of emotional misery to follow.
Now, the only things that alleviate these symptoms appear to be stimulants (My adhd medication), so basically either taking my daily dose and getting a little relief for a few hours (Oh yeah, this allergy makes all my meds work really badly), or being incredibly doped up on all my anti allergy meds. I'm talking claritin, benadryl (together), double dose Ketotifen for my MCAS. I'm taking pepsid for stomach pains with which I wake up and with which I go to bed. Yes I already have mast cell issues so, that's great! I found probiotics make this issue worse (CLogged ears, mind fog), but ease digestion and SIBO.
Anyway. I need to know, does anyone out there know how to get this horrible soy out of my system? I will do anything. I will take extra laxatives, I don't care if I lose weight/minerals/etc, this is hell.
I will drink enough water to be nearly dehydrated if I have to pee it out. WIll CREATINE help? Will anything help? Please. Please tell me. What supplements, minerals, workouts, saunas, soaks, anything just. I've already done the activated charcoal but since I caught it late, doing it 12 hours after the poisoning was unfortunately worthless.
TLDR: Undeclared allergen poisoning, but just GI and mental symptoms with some skin/rash. How do I get soy out of my system faster? What supplements or drugs can I take or ask the doctor for? I'm already on a mast cell stabilizer and several H1 and H2 antihistamines. Any advice helps. THank you!

2023.06.04 09:02 LokitheGodofqueer My Best friend abused me
Hey im new, not so sure how these thing works but alright,okey some context.
So... not sure how to say it. My Best friend of 5 years Sexualy and Mentally abused me for 4 months...
She took advantage of me in the worst way, she trick me in to believing that she was my friend, she even help me pay for my ticket to the USA so I could go to work there and have a "better" life, of course I took the chance, I left everything behind me, I left my family and Fiance so I could pursue a better life for us, for all of us. She promised me she will help me with the transportation to places I needed to go (for example, Doctors, offices etc) she also promised me she will stay by my side ( She was the only person I knew in the usa) but as soon a weak passed by she literally started treating me like her fucking personal maid and I was fiscally punish for any mistake I will commit, I remember once I left a plate in the sink and she hit me in the Head with the same plate.
I ask my Fiance and other friends for help but they couldn't do anything to save me, I had to save myself from that monster, and it got worst and worst, her brother moved in to the house we were sharing, and her brother was worst, he Locked me up in the bathroom, he will call me gross, he will even choke me... Talking about all of these is very complicated and putting in simple texted words is also hard... I keep thinking what did I do to deserve such a punishment?
Months passed by were I will try to escape my abusers House, I even begged to one of my managers to let me sleep in there couch, My panic attacks were getting worst and worth evry day, my body was giving up on me, One day My "Friend " and her boyfriend, I don't even wanna say the word, is to painful for me... all I can say is that I was late in my rent and they were gonna kick me out if I dint pat them.. they gave the "choice"... I was forced to do it... I was force to do those things... I look at myself in the mirror and I feel disgusting, My fiance an my family can't know about any of these events... but I'm falling apart

2023.06.04 08:59 angelikeoctomber Some science
Can walkers exist
No.
A Harvard researcher actually wrote a scientific paper about what it would take for zombies to exist. It was both serious and humorous at the same time.
Because zombies don’t have circulating blood they have no oxygen transfer so there is no Krebs cycle, not removal of lactic acid… how do they move?
And they have great hearing and balance which can’t be explained. How do they maintain inner ear balance?
They seem impervious to heat or cold; they seem impervious to gunshot wounds and even amputations. They can’t “bleed out”.
The muscles in their jaws continue to work without any kind of motive force or fuel. There are no chemical reactions that allow muscular contraction and release and yet they can still chew flesh.
Their grab response is powerful. They can hang on to objects and grab victims despite no mechanism for the muscles in their hands to operate.
The most complex organ in the body is the human eye, and yet the zombie eyes work well despite no oxygen or blood pressure to speak of. Without these things the eye would normally fail immediately and the body would be blind.
There is no underlying possibility for zombies to exist because the mechanisms that make mobility, sight and hearing work are all compromised. There is no way zombies could actually move, see, or hear, let alone bite and swallow.
Except if there is something supernatural 🤣🤣🤣

2023.06.04 08:56 Any-Development-3338 Extreme fatigue
Just using this as a space to essentially think out loud.
When I started Rybelsus I experienced quite a bit of fatigue. I think on day of 7mg 2 I spent most of the day sleeping. It got better but didn’t fully go away.
Since staring 14mg the fatigue has been getting so much worse. I find it near impossible to get out of bed. When I’m out with friends it feels almost like an outer body experience after a couple hours because I’m too tired to be present in conversations. I haven’t done a workout throughout this entire journey until two days ago. This had such intense consequences, I was so sick and tired the day after. Felt like I hadn’t slept in weeks. It has been a month on 14mg and it feels like I’m slipping away. I spent quite some time on 7mg because it was working and I didn’t want the side effects to get worse. There are a few other side effects that make me feel worse too but it’s really the fatigue that gets to me.
On one hand I’m telling myself that maybe I need more than a month to adjust to the higher dose but on the other I’m not sure I can even take another day of feeling like this. Easy solution is to just stop the meds of course but then it’s back to constant food noise and bad food decisions. For the first time in years I’ve managed to reduce my binging. It’s almost not a problem at all now.
Then there’s also the worry that it’s not the medicine and if I stop it will then just be binging on top of everything else.
I’m on Rybelsus.

2023.06.04 08:54 marjokeXD Here's a deal: You be my long term friend and I'll be yours.
Hey there, lovely people!
Who am I? I'm just a random person on the internet on a mission to find some really awesome people to join me in creating unforgettable memories.
I'll just clear out the thing I want from you the most at first. I'm expecting a little bit of commitment and effort from you. I've said this before and I'm saying this again, without those no relationship can continue for long and I'm strictly seeking long term friendship from you. If you're up for it, I'm sure we can become best friends in no time!
here's a bit about me:
I lovedd to be play outdoor games such as football, badminton and cricket but let's just say my skills have died along with my old boots. But recently I've decided that I'm gonna go to the gym to improve my physique. You'll find me working on my "gains" at the gym, trying to transform this body into something less stickman-like very soon (still thinking what to do suggestions are appreciated).
When I'm not at home procastinating and wrecking my life (literally and metaphorically), I'm either sleeping or out with my small squad, looking for the best restaurants in town. (There are a lot of them lmao) If you're up for some culinary adventures, let's set out to conquer every burger place, café or a dessert haven if we're in the same area!
Now let's discuss hobbies shall we? I'm a self-proclaimed gaming geek with a computer that could be older than some galaxies. But, hey, a little lag has never stopped me from becoming an online warrior, eager to conquer virtual kingdoms and fight pixelated people with style (and a little button-smashing). I bought a really good rig 3 years back but the PSU died and sadly I haven't fixed it yet because of my busy and shitty life. I'm thinking of upgrading my PC soon btw.
Oh, and I have a secret superpower—I can strum a few tunes on my rusty acoustic guitar. Don't worry, I won't annoy you with it unless you specifically request it. But hey, if we ever find ourselves around a campfire, I might bust out some questionable covers of your favorite songs (warning: this is not a joke).
As for movies and anime, I'm always down for a good binge-watching session - from action-packed blockbusters to mind-bending psychological thrillers, anything that will give me goosebumps, I will watch it a 100%> please recommend me some things to watch tho I'm very bored these days since my exams have ended and I have nothing to do rn.
Anyway here's another deal: I'm looking for people who know how to enjoy life's chaos, laugh till our stomachs hurt, and make memories to tell our grandchildren about. We're definitely on the same wavelength if you enjoy random trips, game nights packed with friendly (or not-so-friendly) competition, and..... - chats that make time fly. Please don't be dry.
Let's team up if you're a foodie, a gamer, a movie enthusiast, a car enthusiast or just someone who enjoys excellent company and ridiculous situations! Send me a message and let's embark on a friendship adventure that will go down in history.
Waiting eagerly for you <3

2023.06.04 08:54 buddeman27 [M4A] Completely insane Gek from NMS, looking for someone to have some chaotic fun with (or, on the contrary, play with a version of him before he lost his marbles, though be warned, he's kinda a jerk)
Got a character I made a bit ago, named Xyggi Zdardhust (not my idea, but I liked the name before understanding the reference, and it stuck, lmao)
Anyway, there's a version of him that's cold, somewhat shallow, paranoid, and possibly even edgy, for lack of a better term, (I call him Prime) and there's a version who's completely mental, possibly unknowingly evil, naive, and too friendly for anyone's good (I call him Theta)
There are some realities in which both exist at once, sometimes in separate bodies, sometimes as a split personality, but either way, typically the former hates the latter, and the latter considers the former his best friend
Kinda wanna play as either of them, try and figure things out before I use them in d&d
Can be something casual, can be some betrayal, can be completely chaotic and nonsensical, I'm fine with whatever, just send a chat, write a comment, send a DM, whatever works, if you're interested
Gek has wares, if you have units... Or time...

2023.06.04 08:53 Tazz104 Danelectro Baritone bass transformation
I have a Dano baritone GUITAR body that I want to turn into a bass, Im having trouble finding a neck that would fit the pocket (57mm) because it is a guitar pocket. Should I route a bigger neck pocket? All of the electronics work but should I replace them with bass pickups or will the guitar ones work well enough? I would appreciate any help/advice for this project because I plan to put a lot of time and effort into it.

2023.06.04 08:52 Global-Preference-77 Am I being unreasonable for expecting my boyfriend to tell me the things I want to hear about my body?
My (24f) boyfriend (34m) and I have been together for a few months. We’re in a fairly new relationship. On our first date I expressed that I dislike when people stop caring for their appearance once they’re in a relationship and he strongly agreed with me. In my previous relationship I gained a ton of weight and stopped caring for my appearance because I was having issues with my now ex boyfriend. He was pretty abusive and would get mad when I got ready because “I was looking to get others’ attention”. I look back at those times with much regret in letting myself go.
Anyway, 5 years later, I’ve worked hard to lose all the weight I gained and more and now I’m the skinniest and fittest I’ve ever been but there are still some things I would like to improve. I find that my boyfriend is unwilling to tell me what I want to hear in the name of “honesty”. He’s told me before that I have no tits, which I thought was weird because no one has ever said that to me and I think they’re normal for my size (5’5, 145 lbs, 34B). On another occasion I was wearing a top that exposed my arms and he pointed out the stretch marks on the inside of my arms close to my arm pits. I’m very self conscious about my arms so I took this one heavily but he said it was a joke so I dropped it. He’s also made comments about my stomach when I was shopping for a dress to wear to his friend’s wedding and he told me I looked pregnant. We fought over that one for a few days. He apologized to me several times but I can’t get over it. Today, I was shopping for jeans and we were on the phone and we started talking about glute exercises and I asked him if I had a fat ass hoping that he’d say yes but he said I have a medium ass. I was extremely bothered by this and he responded by telling me he doesn’t lie to me. I brought up the times in the past when he’s told me he loves my ass and he reassured me that he loved my medium sized ass. I replied that he’s constantly humbling me and I didn’t expect my bf to be the one to humble me and he said maybe that’s why life brought us together. We ended the call because he said he didn’t want me to ruin his weekend.
Am I overreacting? Is it reasonable to expect my bf to tell me what I want to hear when it comes to my body? Thoughts?
TL;DR - my boyfriend won’t tell me what I want to hear about my body when I ask him about a specific feature. Am I being unreasonable by expecting him to tell me what I want to hear??

2023.06.04 08:49 ThrowRA4009771 Deep depression after abortion…
I think this is more of a rant. I know I need to seek therapy. I had an abortion 2 weeks ago. I was 5 weeks. I have a congenital anomaly and my pregnancy would have been extremely risky, and would have likely lost my baby between 8-10 weeks. I was told I can have a healthy pregnancy after I have a specific surgery…so I chose to terminate.
I’ve always been a person who excels in everything. School, work, tried to be the perfect kid, followed all the rules, etc. I’m so angry that my body failed my baby. I’m so angry and sad and depressed. Everyday I feel like a zombie just trying to get through the end of the day. I went to my doctors appointment today to verify I was no longer pregnant and I cried so much seeing that my HCG levels are almost back to normal.
I can’t help to think what their hair, or nails, or feet would look like… what their smile would have looked like. Part of me does not like myself anymore. I just feel so numb. I’m not sure if others have experienced depression after an abortion but this feels worse than when I lost a close family member.
