- Comment on I threw up when I took Trintellix at 4:00 AM EST this morning. I'm off the Vyvanse and Abilify. Oh, and my psychiatrist sucks. A little help here? 2 weeks ago:
you’re NOT supposed to take both Vyvanse and Abilify together
“It depends”. You have to monitor your blood work, heart rate, blood pressure, watch for arrhythmia etc. However your post implies Abilify was prescribed for autism alone. If this is the only reason, then you might as well discontinue as it’s only indicated for irritability and the costs almost certainly outweigh the benefits in that case. If it was prescribed for something else that may be another matter.
When you were put on these drugs were they prescribed at the same time? Did you start at low doses and titrate up to try to find a sweet spot for symptom reduction without significant side effects? You have a pretty long list of conditions. Were you experiencing all of this before you went on medication or is it increasing?
Was the Trintellix prescribed to replace this or were you on all 3 of these at once? All of these drugs inhibit the reuptake of serotonin (and Vyvanse increases it’s production). Dosages and individual body responses differ but it’s not usually advisable to stack lots of these drugs due to the risk of serotonin syndrome.
For SAD you should get a light box if you haven’t already. It’s mostly a one off cost + electricity. Also where possible getting outside in the fresh air for a walk (weather permitting) will do wonders beyond the effect of getting more light. www.mayoclinic.org/…/art-20048298
- Comment on Suicide deaths in Korea exceed 7,000 in first half of the year 4 months ago:
Infamously grindy schooling in EA is even worse in Korea than it is in Japan or was in China before they clamped down. If students don’t make it into one of the top uni’s that’s it for their career.
Once people are in their 40’s it becomes extremely difficult to get hired and after 55 employers are legally allowed to being reducing peoples wages. Many seniors don’t qualify for pensions and live in poverty.
Hyper shallow K-Pop and extreme rates of plastic surgery suggest a vapid culture. A large portion of the population calls it ‘Hell Joseon’

The more I read about South Korea, the less surprising this is

It’s probably not tbh. I came to the realisation that nostr is exactly what it’s supposed to be, so it likely won’t change.

Is this move affecting the ok0.org domain as well or has that been taken down permanently?

- Comment on Yale scientists link Covid vaccines to alarming new syndrome 11 months ago:
The condition also appears to reawaken a dormant virus in the body called Epstein-Barr which can cause flu-like symptoms, swollen lymph nodes and nerve issues.
Interesting. There is some evidence that Epstein-Barr is a necessary precondition for developing MS. I wonder if this further increases the odds.
