A wild confession appears:

Quote :

"I have a female friend who is absolutely insufferable when it comes to planning. I mean....just....fucking awful. Every now and then she'll hit me up for lunch and invite a few other former mutual coworkers (who I don't even like that much). And its always one of those things that balloons into more people than I care to see, but I can't back out because I already said yes. Before I know it, it ends up just being me and a sewing circle of uninteresting and inane chatter. She's nice and all, but goddamn, getting a group lunch or meeting to catch up or just about anything that requires a schedule turns into a goddamn consensus building exercise that requires a feasibility and planning committee and a million fucking group text messages that always seem to end with a question mark. It's never, "hey, get lunch?" "Sure." "How about Wednesday at Shennanigans?" Nope. Never It devolves into, "who else should we invite?" "Should we try that new place that is the exact fucking same as every other place thats ever served food?" "OH YEAH! LETS! I heard they serve mushroom shit poppers now!" [insert random fucking smiley face emoji bullshit gif or something equally as stupid]. Then sprinkle in a few more response texts from mysterious phone numbers of whomever else got roped into this mess (numbers I never even bothered to save into my phone even though we worked together for YEARS). Honestly, halfway through the million texts, I question whether or not I even want any of these people in my life anymore. Then, when a time and place is finally settled (always far enough off into the future to allow for uncertainty), the random cancellation texts come streaming in and at least one day is spent deciding between rescheduling and or continuing as planned, and honestly, I have half a mind to just change professions so that I will quit running into these boring fucking people. And, I swear to god, if I have to hear about how hard it is for one of them to "find a good guy" during lunch or fucking Christine be all Christine and talk about her wedding plans, I'm going to slap all of them - one by one - with my ring hand."

If it were me I'd probably just say 'no thanks' and spare myself the hassle.

Accepting further confessions!

That confessor seems like a crazy lady

4/12/2016 9:47:33 AM

yah just make up some excuse.

i think our confessor actually likes going to these events. gives her stuff/people to gripe about + she gets to hear some gossip.

4/12/2016 9:49:24 AM

that's what I said

4/12/2016 10:05:19 AM

To the confessor: Next time she asks to do lunch say: "Okay I'm free next (insert day) and have been wanting some (insert restaurant name). Then if she changes it, say "Oh I can't make it that day. or "Oh I heard that restaurant is shitty." Problem solved.

"I knew I was going to get shit for it, but honestly I am working on it. I would never act on it, I just found it startling because I have never felt this way about a group of people (I guess there are teenagers that can evoke a similar annoyed reaction in myself), it's not violent it's more of a "ahh get me away from these annoying assholes". I am hoping admitting it to myself and seeing the words written out will change something in my thought process, or at least be a starting place?!"

I mean...I don't run into that many French to really have formed an opinion of them (other than a stereotype), much less a hatred.

"Earlier today, out of boredom, I popped one of my fish oil supplement capsules (like popping a pimple - not near as satisfying, but still kind of fun). And I think I was playing with balls or something at the time, I'm not sure, but for whatever reason, I almost immediately got the idea to use the fish oil as lube. So I popped a couple capsules and had a nice jerk with the oil, and it was pretty good, actually. However, now my whole room smells like fish "

I'm already a highly sensitive person, and I know this and I try to keep my emotions in check. I keep finding myself bursting out into tears over kids in Syria, and I think I am legitimately falling into a depression. I have mild depression, high anxiety and Im lucky enough that usually I can pep talk myself out of the funk (after some time talking in therapy about it)..... but I cannot talk myself out of this one."

Join one of these groups and get over there and help them. Syria is a true tragedy that we're only insulated from because of an ocean.

If we were in caveman times and the village next to you were burning, there would be nothing stopping you from running over there to help. No reason you can't do the modern equivalent.

10/21/2016 9:34:31 PM

I really respect you for empathizing with strangers whom you can't see. I'm sure it sucks, but it damned noble to care that much about your fellow humans.

10/22/2016 1:28:08 AM

Whatever it's aggravated by, kids in Syria, the election, etc., depression of any degree is not something you can pep-talk your way out of, no matter how much you or people around you try to convince you of that. Therapy will only help so much as well. Depression usually involves a chemical imbalance in the brain that is easily fixed with medication. There's no need for you to have to feel like that all the time.

" that is easily fixed with medication. "

I'm no depression expert, but what I do know is that shit isn't "easily fixed with medication."

[Edited on October 22, 2016 at 1:43 AM. Reason : But the first part of that was right on, the middle so-so, then it went off the tracks.]

10/22/2016 1:43:08 AM

It didn't go off the tracks. Maybe it's not always "easily," but medication is the most viable and successful treatment of depression. I understand that each person's situation is different, but it's a good option for lots of people.

Also, if you're "no expert," there's really no need to pick apart my post. It was just my opinion, offering another option.

10/22/2016 2:04:48 AM

synapse is just being a dick.

The spirit of your post is valuable.

I mean, "chemical imbalance that's easily treated with medicine" is more accurate and helpful than some long blah-blah-blah about depression.

10/22/2016 10:20:12 AM

I guess "managed" would have been a better word to use than "fixed."

10/22/2016 12:31:43 PM

To be clear, I don't actually agree with your post, and I would never recommend medication for these so-called "chemical imbalances." But I know it's what we're supposed to say to people who are ostensibly depressed.

10/22/2016 12:53:30 PM

What would you recommend?

10/22/2016 1:23:08 PM

CBT?

10/22/2016 1:26:01 PM

My experience and thought is that CBT is really helpful ALONG with medication.

Or fuck it, just self-medicate with alcohol.

[Edited on October 22, 2016 at 1:31 PM. Reason : sss]

10/22/2016 1:29:10 PM

Alcohol just makes it worse

10/22/2016 2:43:36 PM

I know.

10/22/2016 4:36:17 PM

anti-depressant meds, if mixed with even small amounts of alcohol, can make for some horrific hangovers. also, they can severely fuck with your ability to ejaculate, and (if you stop them) to get a boner.

still, they work pretty damn well, in my experience. I've turned my life more or less totally around largely by pouring happy chemicals into my brain.

however, your sorrow for the plight of Syrian strangers doesn't seem like the kind of thing you ought to treat with meds.

[Edited on October 23, 2016 at 1:22 AM. Reason : rgehw]

10/23/2016 1:17:29 AM

I was being very sarcastic when I brought up alcohol, hence the rolls eyes. It makes any mental issues much, much worse.

The reaction to the Syrian people's plight could be a sign of a deeper problem though, even anxiety disorder. Some issues cause reactions to sad situations or events to be magnified.

And yes, medication tends to work, but apparently in this thread, that is crazy talk.

Confession Update

Quote :

"update doing ok still, but I am considering dropping my prozac prescription for 2 reasons, first and foremost I have no insurance and I need to go see a doctor to get it refilled, and I don't have a Primary care doctor and I can't justify a doctors visit for that shit. and secondly I don't really want to be on it forever. I started it when I was in gad school, and it was really crucial for helping me deal with unresolved things in my past blah blah, helped with some trauma etc and I think I learned enough behavorial things to be better understanding my mental state and how to prevent anxietyish attacks ( I have only twice had a true anxiety attack, both were in public places, but I think I have that under control). And now I at least have a friend I can talk to about this stuff with, so that's cool. thank you guys for sincerely giving advice, honestly I was floored to read real advice. And especially thank you to moron and JeffreyBSG for sympathizing instead of belittling my concern for refugees. I am still closely following updates, mainly Aleppo, but it doesn't look good for them and it will continue to break my heart also thank you bottombaby for putting up with my self pity, lol"

"Have never taken Adderal in my life. I think I do have mild to moderate adult ADD, but my friend who has moderate to severe ADD (diagnosed) and has had it his whole life says I don't. Anyway, yesterday he picked up his prescription of Adderall -- he has been off it for several years now but wants to start again as he just enrolled in college -- and gave me one. He warned me and said that if I truly do not have ADD like he thinks, it will keep me up for a crazy amount of time, like 36 hours or something. He said I should take it Friday morning before work and I probably won't sleep till Saturday night. Is that how it will work? Any tips? I will take it tomorrow 8 am before I go to work. It is 25 mg. He said I could drink a lot and not get drunk, but I don't drink so I don't care about that. What else can I expect?! Hyper-focus on any and all tasks? Talkativeness? "

from my experience (maybe 4-5 times total in undergrad) I have not stayed up excessively if it were taken in the morning. I was the most social someone like me could ever hope to be and very focused when I made myself be. Very VERY easy to get sidetracked, but if you keep yourself on topic you can possibly expect a high productivity day. I would plan and make a very explicit list of shit you want accomplished in your day so that you will stay focused. And you must refocus yourself throughout the day and be mindful you are on topic. I accidentally went into a youtube binge for 5 hours when my friend handed me some. The other times, I was able to get papers written etc. but only with a list and a conscientious decision to stay on topic.

I also had very sizable pit stains, like massive actually (for me at least), and my mouth was super dry even though I was trying hard to stay hydrated.

I was also a tad paranoid, the littlest things made me concerned someone must know that I on drugs not prescribed to me or that they must hate me. Obviously you would want to keep yourself away from those thoughts and stay positive and focused.

Now I will go ahead and be grandma and say you really don't want to be putting your body through it just for a single day of productivity, but obviously I have been there. It is also addictive, very addictive!!!! If you end the day super pleased with all that you accomplished, it's easy to think that you want to keep doing this. Don't use this as an opening to start asking your friend every week for these pills, it will get out of control very quickly and the withdrawal is a bitch and you will ruin friendships that way.

anybody else here take it for a specific reason? results? side effects?

I know nothing of the medicine so pardon my ignorance, but if you are worried about staying up all night could you just take half a pill? Or would that just last just as long and have half the effect?
