Update and question

I posted before about my fears at the prodromal stage. I am still not 100% sure if I was at that stage, but I did catch the symptoms early. Experienced no vomiting episodes, but did have lasting nausea and stomach pains for the entire 2 weeks between noticing and stopping. Never felt the urge to have a hot shower, though I did notice myself turning the temperature up a few degrees higher (from 40c to 42-45c). Never helped with the symptoms. However I would like to continue thinking that I do have CHS.

ANYWAY… I am now 3 weeks clean today. My parents have started piss testing me and I’m now on a monthly schedule to go back home. I feel really good at the moment, cooking up a storm, laughing so much harder at everything than I ever did when I was getting high all the time.

I also have a question. Normally I can do long-ish stints lasting months at a time, with the mindset always that I’m stopping for good. However, the cravings ALWAYS return and I always manage to convince myself that I’m no longer habitual, and can pick up without smoking every day. Every single time I do that, I don’t even keep strong for the first 2 days. It’s always back to back.

Can anyone share what worked specifically in these situations for them? I usually fail sobriety after a few months and I really don’t want to fall back into that hole again :(

I just finished season 1 of Paradise after my dad recommended it.

I also watched the entirety of Silo S1 in one sitting.

I can’t decide which of the two is better. I mean Paradise has the Emmy nominations, but the two shows feel really similar at the same time.

In both shows, we find out that our sandbox world(s) was built by politicians and other elites who feared an upcoming nuclear extinction event.

They even have a largely similar season 1 finale, since both Juliette and Xavier find out through leaks from higher ups that the outside air is breathable. Eventually this leads them both to ‘stick it to the man (or woman in Paradise’s case)’ and ultimately leave in the hopes of returning back with important information. In the meantime, the allies they make stay behind to foster a revolution of some sort and face their own enemies through people they trust.

What do you guys think? These shows are both amazing and I love these sandbox types, but don’t they feel eerily similar to each other? And which do you guys prefer out of both? Please don’t drop any Paradise season 2 spoilers!!!!

Hey guys, I have an IS200 gxe10 but I guess it’s the same here as the 300.

Basically the A/C fans inside the car are stuck blowing permanently. The temperature control works but the thing on the right where you change from off, auto, low high etc does nothing. As soon as you turn the car on the fans start and won’t stop.

Any advice? I cannot find a solution to this anywhere online, it doesn’t even look like anyone has had/asked about this issue before.

So far all we have done is leave the battery disconnected for a few hours but that hasn’t worked.

Seen the Supra about 8 years ago on my way to school, twinned with another in grey. Always hoped to see it again but hadn’t until now.

Spotted in Nottingham.
