As someone who recently had to quit cold turkey from being a heavy daily user due to job change and a drug test (I had 6 weeks to be clean), I can confirm that physical withdrawal symptoms exist and are not pleasant. Includes night sweats turning into nightmares, upset stomach with loose stools, and loss of appetite. Lots of warm baths to combat the fatigue of withdrawal. Heightened paranoia due to the situation.

Would not recommend. If you're a heavy user and need to stop/T-break, taper down first, or work with a mental health provider.

Nah, it's the "A1, See?" test. It helps prove that his eyes and tastebuds are functioning ~~as normal~~ above expectations.

That’s also my interpretation. Which tracks with Musk companies, which tend to cut corners by cutting out redundancies.

Don't let your diagnoses define you. You're no less of a person than you were the day before your diagnoses. See it as an opportunity to have better understanding of yourself and your inner workings.

That said, at least here in the US, if you find that you don't feel comfortable with your mental state, go to a hospital. They're equipped to deal with many kinds of crises, and can help you get through it.

If something like that worked, scientists would have done it by now.

Around 2008-2010, I previously had an HP Compaq Presario that was no longer cutting it, so it was time to upgrade! I ended up using the case itself for quite a while, but gutted the motherboard for some Gigabyte board of the time, a Pentium 4 (1.X Ghz), a whooping 4 GB of RAM (32-bit systems woohoo), ~100Gb HDD, and an nVidia 9600GT. Give it a few years, and I'd upgraded it to a GTX 560 and i5-2500k which ended up blowing in a power surge in college dorms around 2015.

It's been long enough that timelines are fuzzy, but the turn of specs have been wild. I was pretty shocked to learn that a lot of CPUs have turned from over-clocking to under-volting due to how generally powerful (and power consuming) they are nowadays!

I thought it'll pass on it's own but it hasn't.

I had an internal one (no pain, lots of bleeding) within the last 2 years, went to see the doc at the 2 month mark. Was informed it usually takes up to 6 months to resolve. There's a few more-drastic measures that can be performed to take care of it if it's a significant health risk or doesn't fade in that time period. Sorry for your pain and suffering, but other comments about Prep H, and your sitz baths, are good advice. Yes, they're not so uncommon.

The sooner they know, the less embarrassing it'll end up with frequent, painful trips to the bathroom. Just be up front.

It infringes on my constitutional freedom to be ripped off!
