Have you ever tried putting vanilla creamer into milk to make vanilla milk tho? Chocolate milk can gently caress right off. I suggest the Nestle French Vanilla creamer as the best one to use.

My wife made a smoothie and wanted me to taste it, forgetting she had put whey protein powder into it. Immediately I noticed swelling in my throat and got horrible stomach cramps, resulting in me vomiting.

I didn't use to be like this, I used to be able to enjoy milk and cheese :cry:

Is lactose tolerance something that goes away as you get older? Didn't know that was possible

Yep it absolutely sucks. Happened to me after I turned 30. Butter is literally the only thing I can somewhat stand. Saddest part was that it took me years to find an ice cream alternative that actually tasted like ice cream and not coconut.

ECT-brother goon: you might have him look into transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS or rTMS). It’s increasingly being used as an alternative to ECT because it’s much less invasive (no sedation, no medication holiday, outpatient) and doesn’t have the memory loss side-effects. I’ve done it twice at top hospitals in the US and Canada, and it was pretty effective. I wouldn’t say that it totally resolved things, but it definitely got me back to functional as a human and parent. Insurance may or may not cover it, but there are also commonly trials that people can join that are evaluating some tweak on the basic model. Lots of research out there if he’s into that, and I think most psychiatrists will have at least passing familiarity.

Worst case, dxm the cough syrup stuff is about as fast and effective as ketamine but you can get it at the drugstore and pretty few side effects. Take like 5x the coughing dosage, don't buy the stuff with aspirin in it

I’m surprised that oral administration of dxm is as fast as ketamine infusion, but also I thought that dosage control is important for effectiveness of the best-studied DM/Q treatment (plus avoiding brain lesions, though you need a relatively high dose to be at high risk there I think). do you have an article with a reference to dosing relative to cough syrup concentrations?

however, making hot chocolate with cold milk instead of hot is really delicious. try it sometime. (you have to put it in a jar and shake it hard to get it all to dissolve at the lower temperature but man it's good)

Ket infusion faster but its seconds vs minutes as opposed to weeks for the ssri

No evidence of brain legions in not mice. Equivalent in humans is like multiple grams, hundreds of doses

My wife has zero hobbies and it drives me insane. When we both get home from work, I cook dinner, and then we sit on our asses and watch a movie or tv or occasionally play a video game together. If, say, I want to work on a project, or play single player games, or read a book, it feels like I'm abandoning her and she'll either watch tv on her own or clean, and then go to bed super early. Under the guise of "we need to get off our asses," I declared Tuesdays and Thursdays to be "no sitting on the couch together" nights. One of us can watch/play something, or we both can in different rooms, but just not together. I've been enjoying it because it lets me read, edit videos, try to learn coding, or whatever else I want to get done; she just watches tv.

I have no idea what she did with her time before she met me. I guess the difference is I have always been a pretty solitary person and she has always been around friends, and now we live pretty far from anyone we know so she just doesn't know what to do with herself. She isn't lazy, she just has zero hobbies or interests and I have no idea how to encourage her to find something, because every attempt has failed. Learn to knit, volunteer at a soup kitchen, join a roller derby team, I don't care what it is, just do something!

I'd say try to help her meet new people. Most of the time this is easier with a hobby, but there are definitely social-media-oriented methods for young people to meet each other and try to make friends.

I got someone fired. Well, "laid off" (because in America you don't need a reason to be fired and everyone wants to sue so why admit you're letting them go for shitposting when you can give no reason at all)

They flamed me one too many times, so I took a collection of their posts and forwarded them to their employer. Well, I called from a payphone and asked their HR for an email saying I was being cyberbullied by one of their employees (LOL), then sent a guerillamail with my dox. Even if most of what they said wasn't *super* offensive, the fact it was copious during work hours did them in.

I wonder how long married goon has been with his wife. if they got together young its possible she never had time to make other friends outside of their relationship before things got serious and they got married, and it can hard to learn a bunch of social cues if you've just been taking cues from one guy you've been smashing since you were 18 or whatever and now your 30.

Ive been through it a couple times. you have to establish your boundaries and be prepared for some weird insecurities to come out.

LoL you absolutely should, but a weird thing about marriage in America is that it (and to a lesser extent kids) are seen as the platinum success story, and its GROSS how many people internalize it to such a degree that they get home from their honeymoons and literally begin psychological decay because they don't have anything left to strive for.

This is pretty much exactly what happened to my wife's parents

They got married insanely quickly because that's what they were supposed to do at their age, and then immediately fell into a "well, we're married now, the story of our relationship is over" rut

Dude no one cares that you got someone banned 15 years ago

Ketamine talk: My old weed guy was going through a bad time a couple years ago. Doing lots of RCs, especially meth analogues. Severe depression, paranoia, etc. Had terrible friends who mostly just wanted free drugs. Me and my fiance checked up on him more than any of them, I'm pretty sure. Everytime he didn't respond I was afraid he'd finally killed himself. He ended up getting into ketamine. Not long after he started, he finally tried to kill himself by injecting a ton of K intramuscularly. Lived through it (I don't think he'd done enough to do more than go into a k-hole), and said it was an amazing experience. He started getting through his depression. Got a girlfriend who wasn't a piece of poo poo, dropped his poo poo friends. He moved to a new town for a fresh start. Still dealing, but from what I've heard he's doing tons better.
About a year later, I read about ketamine and suicide, and was like, "Oh, that makes sense." I would never, ever suggest just buying some off the street and pounding it into your thigh, obviously. But I'm p. sure he'd be dead right now if he hadn't chosen that drug to try to kill himself. One of the biggest examples of irony and sheer luck I've ever seen.

My wife is sort of like this. She's got a good career and we're raising a kiddo, but she doesn't really have any hobbies outside of playing with her phone while watching TV in the evenings.

I'd probably be net happier if I spent some of my spare time playing music or writing or doing home coding projects, but a lot of the time it's really hard to get home from work and do anything other than watch TV and play DQXI :shrug:

My wife and I cook awesome homemade meals together at least, which is a fun group activity I'd recommend but gets a lot harder if you have young kids

Yeah, I misread the dosing protocol there, that would be an awful lot. You’d probably puke it up from the other cough syrup ingredients long before that point.

She's could be depressed at all the changes in life and being far from friends, and feeling guilty about it because she's supposed to be "happily married" now. Learning to talk to each other about these types of things takes time, but you should start soon.
