I have triwest, which is the veteran version of tricare. I’m totally fucked trying to find care in an already sparse Healthcare provider state.
The government says well this service was only worth xxx in 2000 so that’s what we’ll pay. And then they act all shocked when none of us can find care
Wouldn’t kewpie mayo work? It’s less tangy than American mayo and a tad sweeter
Every body/brain is different. I tried three other meds for adhd before I landed on a combo that works for me. Strattera was extremely bad for me, but I know it’s amazing for other people. Sometimes you don’t really have a choice but to go through a few meds before you find one that works and is tolerable
Wellbutrin definitely helped me much more than any other medication classified as an antidepressant. I think if I had known it was helping my undiagnosed adhd at the time I would have stayed on it, but it didn’t do shit for my depression lol.
I have never had to wait for a dose of Adderall or Vyvanse since I got diagnosed 2 years ago, and i actually have an extra month of them at the moment. I’m not sure if this is location or pharmacy specific, all my meds come from the VA.
I have two perspectives to this. I once had several male Indian roommates and I honestly don’t remember them having a scent beyond “male”. I could pick up turmeric from one of them, but I think he used a turmeric toothpaste.
I’m white and afab (not on t at the time) and a decade after having those roomies, I had a half-Indian friend tell me I smell like her dad lol. I think curry odor might just stick to clothing, I make it a few times a week so I’m sure my whole house smells like curry to outsiders at this point
There have been many times that I justified gaining weight via alcoholism because I thought maybe if I was disgusting no one would assault me again. Turns that that’s not only not true, I’ve become disgusted with and hate my own body. So now I have a crippling alcohol addiction in addition to hating myself, and being afraid of interacting with certain people.
I’ve done a lot of therapy. And I will continue to do a lot of therapy. I almost graduated from therapy this spring, and had curbed my alcohol intake. But, then I had to get a restraining order and my brain fell right back into it’s old habits. It shouldn’t be this hard to feel safe as a middle aged adult lol
This is a weird way to find out Toby Keith died
When I was in high school red and blue bandanas were banned because of the links to bloods and crips. I grew up in an isolated agricultural town in Florida, completely on the opposite side of the country where those gangs were. (are? I feel like they could have spread a bit since then)
I’m a Navy vet, and the only anime I can remember watching was Inuyasha. I’m probably an outlier though, because the only thing I actually like to watch is Star Trek
Edit: I was aviation, so not your typical sailor
Is there a work around? I feel like every time I figure out how to keep it from uploading and just save locally, it resets the next time I boot up. I’ve been using word because the transcribe feature is very helpful for navigating uni with my disabilities
May as well pay for a legitimate match making service at that point
I had to take prednisone for twelve days. On the first day I took it with my Vyvanse and ended up struggling with really bad anxiety all day. I barely felt like I could breathe. So I spent the rest of the days off my Vyvanse and now I’m terribly far behind on everything xD
I just realized I haven’t listened to Linkin Park in at least a decade. Thanks for reminding me about them
I posted a picture of myself on reddit asking for hair advice. My head was turned somewhat to the side so my nose was in profile. Someone felt the need to tell me I had the ugliest nose they had ever seen. I never really noticed the shape before that, but now in my mind’s eye it’s huge, crooked and has a hook.
A decade later I was getting a septoplasty to repair damage from an assault, and I asked the surgeon if he could remove the hook in my nose. He looked at me with the most compassion anyone ever has, and asked me to point out the hook in the mirror. It was the first time in all those years I finally saw my real nose. It’s actually pretty cute, I don’t know what that commentor was smoking
Rushing to the boombox when you hear your new favorite song, to record it to cassette
I live in one of those sparsely populated states, I have to drive 5 hours one way to see a neurologist. Because the one that is two hours away only sees a small number of veterans due to the way the VA pays them.
Thank you for the offer of help, I now have 100% disability with the VA and I’m also on ssdi. Good luck helping your veteran, and please appeal when the VA gives them a rating. They like to lowball us, I was given 70% after my first c&p.
