I don't know what kind of drug gabapentin is, but it's good for panic attacks and you have to take a ton before you feel even a little high.


Edit: it makes you super talkative, though.

My [24M] wife [24F] has her heart set on a house and thinks my reason for not wanting it is "stupid."

quote:

Together for 5 years now, first year married. We bought our first house 2 years ago and are currently in the market for something larger. We're in no rush and are waiting for the perfect house. Yesterday our realtor showed us a listing for a house that my wife absolutely fell in love with. It's a house I've actually been in before and it is really nice. I work as a community nurse and one of my palliative patients from a few months ago lived in this house. While the house does check all of my boxes off too I fear that living in it will constantly remind me of my work in that house. Drawing up meds, doing assessments, rushing over to their house at midnight multiple times after they called my pager frantically, calling 911 during an emergency situation , and eventually returning to pronounce the patient's death all over the span of a couple months.

My wife thinks that I'm just being silly and once we move in, renovate, and make it our own I won't feel that way anymore. I strongly disagree. I've been doing my job for 4 years now and while you certainly become "desensitized" to the work there's still certain cases and patients who stand out.. and this was absolutely one of them. The house checks literally all of our boxes (under our price range, perfect size, large property, and ideal neighborhood) so she's really insistent. I don't even want to go for a viewing of the house.

TL;DR: Wife fell in love with a house. I'm not interested because I had a palliative patient who lived there. Am I being unreasonable?

EDIT: It wasn't a traumatic event for me. I specialize in palliative care and this was an expected death in the home. I've lost count on the number of patient's that I've pronounced or help stay comfortable during their last days and weeks - it's something I do at my job daily. That said - I still don't find it comfortable purchasing this house because of the history. I don't want to come home to somewhere that I used to work.

I looked up info on it on Wikipedia and found this gem

Wikipedia posted:

Gabapentin is used primarily to treat seizures and neuropathic pain.[17][18] It is primarily administered by mouth, with a study showing that "rectal administration is not satisfactory".[19]

Why don't we hear about this info about every drug? I demand we be told about this!

I use ethanol to deal with anxiety. The best part is that it's over the counter and dosage can be adjusted depending on the situation. I can deal with anything on enough ethanol. Not necessarily in a productive manner, but I can deal with it. Thank you, ethanol.

Ethanol may be right for you, but it can cause drowsiness so operating heavy machinery while taking ethanol isn't recommended.

Is someone debating calories in/out here or are you just misunderstanding that too?

Hey, did you know you can eat so few calories that your body starves itself, so that when you finally eat food, you'll have ruined your metabolism, and every loving grape, apple, and piece of bread will immediately glob onto your disgusting flesh heap? Idk, I've been eating about 200 calories a day for 6 months and guess what? I'm losing about 2 lbs a week, I'm passing out all the time, and my doctor put me on temporary disability, but I can't get myself to eat because every time I try too I'll see an ad on tv making fun of fat people, or something online, and I'm disgusted with myself.

Anyways, everytime goons start talking about just putting the fork down, I like to post my guide for how I did that!

I would recommend eating in front of a mirror. Just watch you force your disgusting mass to absorb. Look at the misshapen curves, the assymetry of your revolting fats, not every man has the much sought "side butt" but you do you disgusting sonuvabitch. First bite, look at how loving wide you have to open your mouth, maybe if you took smaller bites people would stop worrying about you stepping on there pets. Stuff like that, just insult yourself off of every single bite, and if you can't think of anything, just write down what goons say about fat epople and repeat them to yourself when you eat. Eventually you will become so disgusted by the thought of eating that consuming food will make you nauseous. People will call you retarded a lot, you're not eating enough to think but who cares!

Look at how good everyone says you are. Look at how big your cock is getting, look at your muscles, face starts to have a definition other than "breathy." The nurses who don't know about your eating disorder keep telling you to keep it up, everyone is telling you to keep it up. In society it's better to be sickly than fat. So honestly? Just don't loving eat, it's the only way, less calories in than out.

And I mean anything, because if you're like me, you're so pathetic and disgusting you won't be able to stop yourself, but eventually you can just make the cravings go away.

anyways, I've gone from 420lbs to 296, keep it up, im doing so good, yadda yadda.

Synopsis: the gods hired a dude to build a really big wall to protect them from trolls and ice giants, and if he can't do it by a certain day then they don't have to pay him. In order to get away with not paying the dude they wait for him to get 95% done and then Loki summons the world's sexiest horse to distract the builder's horse, so the dude no longer has a horse to haul around bricks with and fails the challenge

Well,Loki turned into a mare so he could distract the Jotnars super horse that did all the stone carrying. They had a bet as to him not getting paid at all if he takes too long.

He didn't choose to actually get caught by the horse. So he got raped and laughs were had.
Then Thor killed the Jotnar anyhow,and Loki was absent for a few months

It's an anti-convulsant. I am on a ton of it. The pharmacy takes a couple of days to fill the prescription, because they never have enough on hand. I have five giant, tall bottles of it in my house, right now. I get NONE of these crazy effects people talk about. I had literally no idea that it had any mood-altering effects until a few months ago when I saw someone mention it, probably on these forums. It doesn't make me talkative. It doesn't make me feel high. I had no idea it had any use at all for panic attacks. I take ridiculous amounts of the stuff, and it barely does what it's supposed to do, much less all this add-on stuff.

Loki gets real loving mad and vindictive when they take his monster children I think, but he's also just kind of an rear end in a top hat

He kills Baldr for laughs and never really feels bad about it, is the only reason Baldr can't come back to life, and then goes over to dinner at the house of Baldr's parents just to sit down, make himself a plate, then insult everyone for a few hours

They pretty much just take the insults while sitting there awkwardly until he basically says "hey remember your loving idiot dead son who I murdered? Ha, gently caress that guy" and they decide they've had enough
