depending on what the meds are increasing your dose can be super bad and you shouldnt do it independently

yeah with like antidepressants (i’m not suggesting that’s what you’re taking this is just a psa) that mess with serotonin it’s really best to keep consistent unless scaling up/down. you get weird symptoms from too much/too little of those.

but like there are drugs the docs told me it doesn’t really matter and is pretty much as needed (but just don’t take too much)

My favourite version remains the Hindenburg.

i don't like edgy memes but god this creases me.

it felt like a flash of the internet I grew up with and for just a moment I felt young again

what is the hidenburg of computing (its probably twitter) and what makes you old farts feel young again?

edit: bruh messing with your meds is not a nice way to die i can promise you that and i am hella spooked out by how low the LD50 on ritalin and adderall actually is

economists (idiots) and many computer touchers (only the very dumbest) share the same brain disease where being good at their thing means they think they are good at other things. i don't know what this brain disease is (i used to think it was engineer's fallacy but that's a logic thing) called but

plz do not larp as a doctorperson kthnx

i don't *think* you have the other-things-brain-disease econocloids do but please don't let that be why you go full lowtax

this time we'd probably actually lose something of value instead of a washed up meat-tube inhaler with bad opinions and a heart full of cat turds

the only people who should be self-medding are sensible members of society who know what they're doing like transwomen and insulin hackers

Edit: Wait, lowtax committed suicide? jfc I feel awful now

i generally do not look into the how of someone's death (their life might be my business, but death should be a private thing) but dang

gonna talk w/ shameboy and get the deets

i appreciate a bunch of people going into Crisis Management Reflex Harm Reduction Mode wrt rotor's little med fiddling' but I promise you, it is absolutely not necessary in this case.

Also, don't get in a medication dosage argument with somebody who buys glucosamine by the barrel

e: also you should not feel bad about lowtax. he was a bad human that happened to stumble into one good thing (creating this forum) and destroyed himself because he couldn't be a real person and keep up with the times and take a W and then move on to actually taking care of his family. The world is a better place without him.

yeah just idk pointing out how someone who killed themselves was a super bad person anyway prolly doesn't do a great deal of good to someone depressed who might be reading this thread and thinking the same poo poo about themselves

and if that's you, hey, hi, you're valid and not lowtax, no matter what your sadbrains says.

i am not a big quotes guy, but i do remind myself now and then "to the living we owe respect, but to the dead we owe only the truth". here interpreted as not really needing to dwell too hard on a nuanced opinion of the dead. guy did some things, many bad, but now gone. plenty of alive monsters to have opinions on.

yeah like, the one thing lowtax never seemed willing to do (and now will never, ever be capable of doing for all eternity) is improving or growing as a person.

you, hypothetical sad person reading this, are still able to do that even a tiny bit so long as you're still a living breathing human, and that makes you infinitely better than lowtax.

tbf i bet carrying around narcan would be used as evidence of prostitutery and conspiracy to commit drug-doing or whatever

I mean, in my experience the people carrying Naloxone kits and/or hanging them up in visible places at parties are not the ones doing the opioids. Using opioids unfortunately doesn't tend to go hand in hand with being prepared for the consequences.

Getting better education and support to improve the safety of users is honestly a pretty strong argument for safe injection sites, or better still, legalization.

But for sure some hell-place cops/judges might turn the whole thing on its head like you say.

a coworker of mine killed herself early 2020. I saw her randomly downtown here a couple months before and thought that she didn't look like she was doing very well but I didn't say anything, just made smalltalk

she was a really cool and interesting person to work with and I think about her a lot. I wish I could tell her that
