Windows bar, windows search bar, song playing -- all freezing up.

Windows bar, windows search bar, song playing -- all freezing up.

Hey, back with another issue. I'm not sure if my art program is causing everything to freeze up due to too many layers or what, but, I'm having an issue where the volume thing (I don't know what to call it, so I put in a picture [not my picture by the way, just needed it to explain what I'm talking about]) gets stuck on the screen. When I mouse over it, I get the blue loading cursor.

When this happens, I also can't use any functions on the task bar as well as most regular Windows functions. Such as the Windows button or the search bar, and the emoji thing that pops up when you use the Windows key + .

What could be the problem? Is my art program really doing this, or is it another issue? 😭

lamotrigine / lamictal causing raised body temp?

Heyyy, so. I kind of have hypochondria, so I must ask, is raised temperature normal & is it caused by the Lamictal? I've been having a good few other symptoms too, most notably upset stomach and such. I started around 4 going on 5 weeks ago. Started the first 2 weeks with 25 mg, then 50 mg, and just this week I started 100mg-- about 2-3 days ago.

Monitors -- one brighter than the other?

Hey there. I know this is probably a stupid question, but I don't know all that much about computers. One monitor seems to be brighter than the other, in the sense that on one, darker colors look more... dark, and high contrast? But on my second monitor, I can see darker colors much more clearly and they are a little lighter, allowing me to see the different shades of super dark greys and black. On my main monitor, all the super dark greys and black all generally just look black. Any easy way to fix this?

Scared. Possible withdrawal, scared of it happenjng

Hey there. So, recently I started some new antidepressants. However, I have to very slowly wean myself onto them. I had to stop taking my previous ones as I started the new ones. I’m wondering if I’m going through withdrawal because of it. I believe I’m having bad brain zaps, that’s the only reason I believe it could be that.

Ive been having some extreme fatigue and lethargy, diarrhea, upset stomach, nausea, lack of appetite, shakiness, heart pounding for 3 days, body can’t decide if it’s cold or hot, and stuff like that. I just ate but had no appetite. I can’t tell it that was because I hadn’t eaten in too long or something. I was wondering if its also stress because of how horrible things have been recently, especially seeing as I have no meds working right now.

I know the answer might seem obvious… but I just need some reassurance. I can’t sleep. I couldn’t sleep for 17 hours because of stress until I finally managed to. I’ve been so drowsy but unable to sleep. I’m just so scared I’m going to be sick.

Possible Noro in the house?

So... Everything was fine. Until I walked out of my room and smelled it. I asked my dad what that smell was. He laughed. Then said he got sick. I, horrified, go, "Why?" and he goes, "Been feeling like this for 3 days". Three days. Three. Not just one, not food poisoning. Three. Three days. I rushed to my sister's room to tell her as I began spiralling.

I called my mom. She said he might be drinking liquor, which caused him to get sick when they were together. (he's an alcoholic, for context) And he's been super lightly/not drinking for a while until just recently again, probably because he broke his ankle. So it might be the liquor hitting extra hard, which he already doesn't tolerate well.

I can't bring myself to believe it. It's late, so she was getting ready for bed. She probably was just telling me what I needed to hear so she could hurry and get to bed instead of dealing with this. That's like her. I can't ask my dad any questions because I know he's willing to lie to me since he's not a good person.

I asked him if it was a bug, and he said no. I asked him how he knew. He couldn't give me a straight answer.

Is this finally my run-in with it? Is this it?

This past month has been horrible. Everything is getting worse. I can't catch a break. I can't.

Hello... around 3-4 days ago, I had 5 teeth extracted. Is it normal for it to still bleed a little? I tasted blood and realized my saliva was tinted. I'm also experiencing some pain.

17F. I do not drink or smoke. This happened just after I woke up, so I'm not sure it'd be something caused by activity (eg, eating).

Hi, I just had a surgery… Got 5 teeth removed. They gave me Oxy-Ace, and I was scared it’ll cause me to V because of side effects I, of course, saw on the internet listed as common… So, how likely is it to happen? Is it just one of those situations where If I eat before I take it I won’t V?
