How many challenges is it possible to make progress towards in one run? I'm just curious.

Today I progressed toward 11 challenges with my run and I was really surprised as it's a lot more than I normally do in one day. Just wondering how many is possible or how many anyone else has managed to progress on?

How well do you know Ashnikko's lyrics?

I made a playlist of lyrics quizzes for every song by Ashnikko.
https://www.sporcle.com/playlists/pjcd/ashnikko-lyrics
I had a lot of fun making these and testing out how much I knew the lyrics so I thought I'd share it in case any body else wants to play any.

I did not create all of the quizzes, but many of them. Fair credit should go to the others who's work I collated together in the playlist.

Enjoy :)

Stopping sertraline against my will

I have had to stop taking Sertraline recently because NHS bureaucracy is getting in the way and not allowing me to renew my prescription.

I hadn't planned to cut it off so I had short notice on being able to stop. I was originally taking two pills a day (100mg). So once I realised I had about 14 or less pills remaining and I wasn't going to be able to get more for possibly months, I had to start weaning myself off. I switched to one pill a day and then when I had two left, started cutting those in half. Today is my third day without any.

The symptoms are not like I expected. It feels so weird and I really don't like it. I don't even know how to describe the weird feeling in my head as I've never felt anything like it. It comes in quick flashes of a few seconds and feels a bit like tiredness but also not like tiredness, a bit like dizziness or wooziness but also not like those and a bit like lightheadedness but also not like that. It's not like a shock or zap. It's just kinda bleh, weird ugh I don't like it. Has anyone else had this? Any idea how long it'll last? I have a job interview soon and I don't trust myself to drive when I'm having these unpredictable moments of whatever.

I'm so frustrated by this whole situation. It literally doesn't need to be like this. I have a repeat prescription but it's all because I tried to change GP (I live in the UK). I don't know how things work internally but I really don't see why it can't just take a single email between the two practices to move me over. And still neither of them can give me a prescription and it's supposedly gonna take months to transfer so I'm just stuck in this limbo state of basically not having a GP of my own who can give me my damn medication.

I finally felt fairly better. It took a long time to become convinced that the sertraline was doing me any good and now I have to stop for such stupid reasons even though no doctor has told me to. I'm really worried about the depression and anxiety coming back (or rather, going back to as bad as they used to be). Anyone experienced this? How long left do I have? I kinda feel like it's already creeping back a little.

Sorry, bit of a ramble. I just needed to get this off my chest. If anyone has any advice, I'd appreciate it.

EDIT TO ADD:
I've probably tagged the post wrong (Sorry!) I wasn't sure because sertraline wasn't an option.
Also, I was on sertraline for less than a year but not a lot less, I think.
