What’s your favourite piece of cryptid media or evidence? Not the one you think is the most likely to be real, not the one you find genuinely unexplainable, but the one you love the most.

Maybe it’s what started your love of cryptids, maybe it’s connected to a good memory with a loved one, I just wanna hear your good cryptid memories!

For me, it’s the Bodette film. It may be incomprehensible quality, as well as an obvious scam attempt, but that choppy little few seconds of footage have such a huge place in my heart. I was probably about 7 when I saw it for the first time and through my young eyes it was just this amazing, irrefutable thing. It made me earnestly believe for a few years that we still shared this world with dinosaurs and ancient marine reptiles, straight from the Mesozoic.

The Bodette film infused my childhood with a sense of magic and whimsy that I’m honestly grateful for. As an adult I obviously wave it off as a nonsense hoax, but my heart still races when I look at that video, and after all is said and done, it’s a big reason why I will always love cryptozoology.

What about you guys? What’re some of your best cryptid related memories? What got you into it and what keeps you invested?

Hey guys. Gonna try and be pretty quick with my overview: I was on 30mg for about 4 years and it was working alright. Recently have been experiencing a pretty severe mental health episode that has lasted almost a year now.

About 4 months ago I went up to 60mg. The first month was alright, didn’t notice any significant changes, second month was a little rocky. And then the last two months have been some of the worst of my life. I’m experiencing awful physical side effects and my mental health has genuinely never been worse.

I have an appointment with a doctor soon to discuss going back down, but I’m really nervous. I know most doctors aren’t fully educated on this med and I have a feeling she’ll just send me on my way with a bottle of 30mg and call it a day.

Is it okay to go straight from 60mg to 30mg? I know it’s a fairly low dose and it’s not a gigantic gap between the two doses so I’m hoping it’ll be okay but I am nervous.

Like I said, I will 100% be discussing with a doctor and vow to check in with a medical professional before following any advice from internet strangers lol. I’m just hoping to hear some other people’s experiences!

hey all. just to keep this short and sweet, i’m in the midst of an extremely severe mental health episode that worsens weekly. i’ve been considering admitting myself to the hospital, but i’ve never done that before so it’s scary for a lot of reasons.

a main one is ARFID. i don’t have a diagnosis but have all the symptoms and have since i was a toddler. still, not being diagnosed concerns me. if i’m unable to eat what they serve, am i likely to be labelled with another eating disorder? will they try to treat me for that?

i‘m in a much better place with food than i used to be and i’m terrified that if i went to a hospital i would be force fed something that would make me sick and it would take me right back. also, i rely on at least one boost a day, i’m not sure if i could have those there.

all this to say, if you’ve been hospitalized for mental
health but not specifically ARFID, how was your ARFID handled?

In the midst of a severe mental health episode that has continued to steadily escalate. At this point, heavily considering admitting myself to the hospital, but I’ve never done that before so I’m really scared.

Do they take you off your meds or anything? What would I expect? Do you get consistent support and help while you’re in there?

I also have ARFID, would I be able to eat?

Just looking for other people’s experiences, what to expect, if this is actually a good idea or if it’s just going to be traumatizing. Anything helps. Thanks.

Hey there! Posting here cause I’m quite desperate and looking to hear other people’s experiences.

I’ve been looking for a job for a while and the situation is extremely dire. Very severe. I need to land something soon or I don’t know what’s going to happen to me, where I’m going to end up. Problem is, I feel like I’ve been applying to everything under the sun for months and I’m not even getting rejection emails. It’s just complete radio silence.

What do I do? I need something in retail, I don’t have any training in trades and am physically unable to do a lot of trades work. But I have over seven years of retail experience and a wide range of skills, at this point I don’t know how else I could be more qualified for a low level retail position.

Everywhere you go wants you to apply online and it’s so frustrating, because you do that and hear nothing and you just know that no human ever even looked at your resume. I don’t know what to do. It feels like screaming into a void.

I’m scared. Being alive is a genuine nightmare, I sob every day and pray that this will end. Is there a way out of this? Is it even possible for a person to land a retail job in Langley within a couple months of looking?

Hey guys! Never posted here before, but I’ve been on Cymbalta for about five years now. For the majority of the first five years I was at 30mg, but it was raised to 60mg a few months ago to address a severe mental health episode.

Has anyone else gone from 30-60mg? What was your experience like?

I don’t feel good but I can’t tell if it’s the meds. I’ve been on them for so long without issue now it feels like the raised dose should’ve been fine. But I’m dizzy, every single day all day. My work requires near constant movement up and down tall ladders, so the increase in dizziness has been really scary.

I’ve also been more confused, just feeling totally out of it, as well as no energy, borderline lethargic. My mood hasn’t increased, if anything over the last few weeks it’s gone down substantially. I feel worse than I did before, but that could just be a natural progression of my mental health?

On top of this, I feel physically weird. Weak and shaky, like the way your body feels when you’re really sick. Lifting heavy things has gotten considerably harder. I don’t drink at all and the only other med I’m on is a low dose of methylphenidate, which I’ve been on for a while and I’ve never had any bad interactions before.

I’m about 3 months into the new dose. Has anyone else had this experience? Does this sound like it could be Cymbalta?

Don’t worry, I will be talking to a doctor about it!

I’m just feeling kind of scared, especially since I know tapering back down might suck if I have to do that, So I’m just looking to hear other people’s experiences!

Thanks for reading!

I’ve time travelled a few times now with no consequences, though always only within a very short time, like 1-2 hours. I wake up at 3:30AM for work, so if I want to check my shops and market in the morning I need to set my switch a couple hours ahead, just to push the system into the next official day lol.

This has worked twice now! Wake up, log on, see there’s still an hour until it’s technically ‘morning’, set my switch a couple hours ahead and boom! New clothes, new market, new groceries!

This led me to foolishly assume time travelling in Tomodachi Life is totally okay. Living the Dream is my introduction to the series, so I’m unsure how time travelling has worked in past games. I’m versed in ACNH, so at this point I thought maybe the time travel mechanics are the same.

Until yesterday lol… Had a shitty day at work so I came home and said y’know what, fuck it, let’s go wild and jump a full 24 hours ahead and get myself an extra refresh! Only to discover that there is indeed no refresh and the market is closed entirely.

This would be fine but my boyfriend also has an island on my switch and he looked so sad when I told him I accidentally broke the markets and don’t know when they’ll refresh again! I should’ve thought about the fact that we both have islands before I started time jumping lol.

Anyone know how many days we gotta wait until the game sets itself back to normal lol? Should I expect a refresh at all today or are we out of luck until tomorrow?

Also, how far forward can you time travel without having this happen? Has anyone tested different times? I’m just curious now, since a couple hours seems okay… how far can we push it lmao?

Not a big deal at all, just a little silly of me and I’m curious to hear other’s experiences!
