Starting duloxetine this week, what are some of people's experiences starting this med?

It's my first time taking an SSRI/SNRI ever. I've only ever been on propranolol for panic attacks. I have had anxiety my whole life, and it's never really ever gotten better, just standard bad or worse. They're starting me at 30mg. I've already planned to start it Wednesday when I have two days off of work.

I'm worried about loss of appetite since I already don't eat well, and very nervous about any nausea and possible vomiting because I have​ pretty severe emetophobia. Please no in depth descriptions about the latter if you can, but mentions are totally fine. The word doesn't scare me lol

Very nervous to start​​ (lol, of course), and I would just like to hear some other experiences! I know everyone's experience with medication will be different, so I'll be taking it all with a grain of salt :) ​​

Thank you all! 💜

What cord would I need to connect this Toshiba DVD Player to a TV?

Hello!

Title speaks for itself. This player is from 2007 so the original cord has been lost to time and a couple of moves. I bought what I (and my mom who had the DVD player) thought was the right cord​ (picture attached), but I put the disc in and nothing happened on the TV despite it being plugged in all the right places and everything on.

See pictures for the ports I have available on the DVD player, as well as a pic of the player itself! ​I am not the best with technology, so links to get the right cord would be totally appreciated 🙏 Or if I did the setup wrong in some way and this cord I have should work, let me know!

EDIT: got a cord that works!! thanks guys! or well. the cord WOULD work if the DVD player didn't read every single disc as "bad".... I think this thing is just doomed to never play a disc again lol​​​

edit two: I got this player for free from my parents basement and just wanted to see if I could get it to work for nostalgia's sake, and figured this would be a good place to ask some experts on what to do! I find it silly how many people want me to immediately throw it away for e-waste and thrift another instead of figuring out a way to make it work. I spent $6 total on the two new cords so it's not a total waste of my money, and I don't care if the quality is disgracing my DVDs ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ ​since it doesn't work, I will probably be looking out for another, but I like to see if I can make things work with what I have first instead of upgrading immediately​​​. turning off post reply notifs​​ since I've found my solutions! thanks to everyone who was helpful with cords :)

30 bus, Monroe & Broadway @ 5:07 pm canceled two weeks in a row. Anyone know why?

I needed to take the 30 from Monroe and Broadway at the 5:07pm scheduled time this and last Monday, but it was canceled both weeks. Said so when I texted the stop and when I looked on maps and the transit app. Anyone know why? Maybe not enough drivers? I took the 17 to the 3 instead to get over by Hennepin again, but the heat really got me waiting for those transfers (and the lack of a shelter or shade ​at Broadway and Monroe).
