  • My meds are actually working and it’s incredible how starting JUST HAPPENS NOW

    I’m told it doesn’t work for everyone, but my own personal biochemistry is responding beautifully to Strattera and a small dosage of Wellbutrin.

    My psychiatrist told me there’s some risk of harmful interaction so my Wellbutrin dosage had to be reduced when I started the Strattera, but it’s been amazing.

    I literally feel like I have more hours in every day because so much less time is lost struggling to get started, struggling to stay on task, struggling to STOP a repetitive habitual time wasting trap like doomscrolling or stupid short form videos.





  • Yeah, that’s where my mind is at too.

    AI in its present form does not act. It does not do things. All it does is generate text. If a human responds to this text in harmful ways, that is human action. I suppose you could make a robot whose input is somehow triggered by the text, but neither it nor the text generator know what’s happening or why.

    I’m so fucking tired of the way uninformed people keep anthropomorphizing this shit and projecting their own motives upon things that have no will or experiential qualia.

    What agony tastes like. Every nerve in my entire mouth, screaming. The room, spinning. The air, ringing. Can’t think. Can’t move. Every beat of my heart shooting pain as the nerves re-stimulate. Sometimes I still feel echoes of the pain. It has been twenty years. Just smelling the blend of other seasonings commonly used reawakens the flashbacks. Some part of me is still in that restaurant, still suffering, even now…

    I will never eat Thai food again.
