Beef, as someone with highly abusive (mentally and physically) psychotic parents, the best way to make them extremely angry is to refuse to let them control you in any aspect of your life. Go full no contact as soon as you move out, then sit back and watch the ever-increasing angry text messages, emails, and voicemails. It’s incredibly cathartic.

yep.

get the gently caress out. i thought your wife was back in the states? can't you move in with her? or both of you go back to korea. anything is better than these troglodytes

she's in seoul right now and i was giving some serious thought to just buying a ticket on a redeye, shoving eggy into his carrier and getting the gently caress out

but like i said i'm in the middle of withdrawing from a SSRI (which you basically can't get in korea, so next to nobody has experience treating the withdrawal symptoms) and TMS (also unavailable there, but i'm doing here so that the SSRI is unnecessary). just cutting and running from both of those would be... probably bad, i think, lol

the upshot is i only have to endure about 3.5 more weeks of the above (...if it works) and then i don't have anything more anchoring me here

i did that for quite a while (yes, they are lovely, abusive people) and had to come back after about 6 years, tail tucked and all. absolutely humiliating lol

but yeah i don't see myself talking to them often once i don't need to

lol speaking of lovely abusive parents, my grandmother texted me asking if I had wished my mother a happy Mother’s Day and she was a good mom. lmao. I love my grandmother very much and sent her cards, chocolates, and flowers for mother day; but she refuses to acknowledge my parents abuse.

oh and just color over the cameras with permanent markers or something. ddos would be fun but it isn't worth the effort.

lol i've been mulling this over

permanent marker is too obvious. they'd probably try to have me arrested for vandalism (no joke, they already threatened to when i just knocked over one of their nannycams)

i was thinking about setting up a VAP that clones their SSID/WPA key, overpowering the other signal and then once i get all of the cameras connected to the honeypot, just blackhole the MACs. that'd be less upfront and sustained effort than a continuous ddos and would probably be less obvious, but meh it also seems kinda pointless

like, they'd probably figure it out eventually, so to what end really? focusing on "revenge" seems like the wrong track, at the moment anyway

i feel you there, i got some after my last dose step-down. just mildly for me though, i’m sure they can be worse. i’m stepping down to zero in a week or so, i wonder if it’ll be worse then.

i feel bad enough about our son’s baby monitor, and it doesn’t record anything and transmits over radio instead of internet. but it feels really invasive and idk why people would have a bunch of them everywhere.

christ it's been terrible lol, sorry to hear you're going through it too. even mild symptoms are loving debilitating sometimes

i'm on duloxetine (not even for depression, sciatica) and it's apparently killing my liver. so i went from 60 mg two months ago, 30 mg last month (and got really horrible zaps for about 3 weeks), so when i told my psych about that last week, he put me on 20 mg — the lowest available dosage — and told me to titrate it down to 0 myself. but even stepping down by 10 mg gave me zaps, garbage sleep quality and apparently morning sickness

but it's a loving capsule without granules, it's just a powder. so how the gently caress am i supposed to do that?? lol

and now on top of all of that i gotta deal with the loving panopticon over here. at least from that i learned getting huge mad will trigger some real bad zaps, so i gotta try not to get too pissed off :sigh:

absolutely loving incredible i'm here "for [my] mental and physical health" (although to be fair the spinal guy i found this time around is batting .1000)

:actually: duloxetine is an snri. I'm on 90mg a day, 60 in the morning and 30 in the evening. I feel you on the brain zaps. really am sorry you're having to deal with all this poo poo

ah yes it is. i'm still pretty pissed off and on top of that, one withdrawal symptom is disordered thoughts :sigh:

so i'm sorry to hear you're on it too lol. it does wonders for sciatica but apparently the same mechanism that dulls nerve pain made me a weird husk of a person that was apathetic about literally everything. pretending to be my previous self was absolutely exhausting and probably led to my spectacular burn-out (and yes, i feel terrible for putting my wife through all this, she is a wonderful person who absolutely deserves better and i have no idea why she still wants to be with me)

anyway if you've been on it a while you might wanna get your liver enzyme levels checked out, specifically ALT and AST. i'd been on 60-120 mg since 2018 and, well, now i have to watch what i eat and drink because of it :argh:

good to know! i take it because i have terminal sadbrains, and it's helped me not make them fatal sadbrains. i'm very sorry to hear it has so negatively impacted your mood levels and such, i don't think i'd be able to stay on it if it made things worse for me. i mean, it's not making me super happy-go-lucky or anything, but i'm definitely not in the dark place i was several years ago when i'd been basically just raw dogging major depression episodes with alcohol and terrible mental coping mechanisms for a decade plus. i don't drink hardly at all anymore, maybe once or twice a year i have a glass of something, but i'll be sure to mention the liver enzymes next time i get a blood draw done

yeah, i feel you there. i feel like it definitely helped stave off fatal sadbrains at complete rock bottom, but looking back it was because i mostly didn't give a poo poo either way (which is definitely weird for me, but of course i didn't realize it). all of this apparently makes me a very interesting psych case so a couple people were consulting on it, and the consensus was that it was probably the duloxetine, which i have to stop now anyway because of the liver stuff

though yeah it just popped up on a routine blood test for my yearly physical. they were only slightly elevated so my primary doc didn't really care, but the spinal guy knew that elevated ALT and AST were a specific side effect of duloxetine, so he ordered another and they were getting further out of range. so he consulted a gastroenterologist, who ordered more tests and consulted someone else, they ordered more tests, blah blah and so over the past 2 months i've had 4 loving blood draws lol, 7 loving vials each

i'm on so many meds i don't drink anymore just because, but yeah if i still did at the level i was at a few years ago i'd probably be on a transplant list by now

but hey i guess there are some benefits to being so hosed up my days are mostly spent in doctors offices

there aren't any cameras in the bathroom but there's one that's mic'd up right across from it that i didn't know about

of course, the ones i didn't know about are all nannycam style, hidden in normal-ish looking objects. i only found out about those after eggy jumped up on my dad and because he's a cowardly little bitch that's deathly afraid of a 8 lb dog with like 5 teeth total, he showed me a recording from multiple angles

like yeah i knew about the obvious camera they had pointed at their living room couch "to catch intruders" (number of intruders caught in 8 years: zero), the amazon surveillance devices all over the place (number of alexa requests: a billion), the doorbell cam (number of packages stolen: zero) and the back and front house cameras (number of vandals: zero), but not loving hidden ones that also capture audio (number of houseguests: zero)

i was already Big Mad about the cameras and mics i knew about (number of people caught doing anything nefarious at all: zero). but this made me literally all red-faced and sweaty and poo poo, which is extremely out of character

and now i have SSRI brain zaps. goddamnit
