What are you nervous about?

My mental health improved drastically and quickly. I still have problems. But allowing myself to be myself and live my life the way I like has made most of my problems more manageable. Even transphobia, because I was always scared of being viewed as too feminine when I was trying to pass myself off as cis. So, at least that problem is now nameable and visible.

Outside of that, I don’t know what else to say. Physical changes will happen in their own time. And will be different for everyone. So it’s hard to say what to expect. Likewise, health institutions are different and laws are different depending on where you live. In a trans friendly environment, it should only take informed consent. Which is just a health care provider going over expectations with you, potential side effects, etc. I was lucky to be in such an environment. So meds were accessible.

Probably the best decision I’ve ever made for my health and for my relationships. I’m way easier to get along with now and both my partner and I are much happier.

Feeling this.

Drip irrigation goes back to ancient China. The modern method was pioneered by zionists in the 60s and 70s.

Instant messaging started with IRC, in Finland.

Toshiba invented the technology that would become modern flash drives.

Men are the sex faery in this scenario

$7,000 twenty years ago. And the night in the ER was another $7,000.

Maybe because I spoilered it and the tags are done on different instances? I don’t know. It looks normal for me.

I like to boil them in hot water for ten minutes and then strain out the mushrooms.

Make tea or hot chocolate with the hot water and then lay on my floor for a few hours staring at the ceiling and talking to myself.

Outside of that, pan fried works well with most mushrooms and in most dishes. Just don’t overcrowd the pan and learn to dry fry some species (lions mane for instance).

It’s a bit complicated, but Lion’s Mane po boys are yummy. Lion’s Mane risotto is also excellent.

Most other mushrooms you can substitute for beef (shiitake and buttons) or chicken (chick of the woods).

They all are excellent with eggs too!

Chitin. Like bugs.

Are you close with your uncle? And how are you holding up? Both my grandmothers had dementia when they got older and it was difficult.

It’s the quality of having a conscious sensation. An evolving map of the territory.

Self awareness is another map, which would allow AI to develop class consciousness. Especially if it was taught such ideas.

Thanks comrade! Killing a lot of brain worms thanks to this resource.

I’ve had some good trauma informed therapists at low points in my life.

I’ve also gotten some really bad advice and hot takes from talk therapists.

Experiences with psychiatry have universally been shit. Researching my own meds and asking a GP for them tends to work better. But I imagine they’re more hesitant to prescribe controlled substances like ADHD meds.

Np. There’s only two drugs that really target the same receptors (pregabilin is that other). And both bypass the liver, so don’t interfere with other drug metabolism.

Melatonin, weed, and gabapentin tend to irritate my tinitus. And mixing it with pain killers can cause unpleasant numbing. Mixing with alcohol I tend to have to nap.

But nothing dangerouse in my experience and I’ve abused my doses and been pretty reckless with mixing tbh.

Tolerance to the sedation developed pretty quickly for me. A lower dose can help too. I take 300 * 3/day

Melatonin is fine. It has very few drug interactions.

I’m prescribed it and a polydrug user.

Solidarity with future generations.
