Not really sure where to go from here. Newly diagnosed. I would love to stop drinking but I just can’t.

I’m on methimazole 5mg x2 daily.

I guess I’m looking at hepatitis c? What’s my prognosis? I’m gonna die huh.

Just wondering how long I have, from others experience

Please comment experiences if so, thank you.

I don’t know much about the music industry and labels but I feel like it would become a workaround for her label not letting her make an album, if she just remixed her old songs? I absolutely love love love the new Rocksey versions and I NEED a studio version of Lie. I just really hope this can be a thing. That’s all. 🤞

I actually went to the doctor because I had concerns of hypothyroidism or insulin resistance. My blood tests came back low tsh and required an ultrasound and more blood tests. A month had gone by and the ultrasound and blood tests came back, I have a mass that needs to be monitored, thyroid inferno, and now my free t4 and free t3 are incredibly high (triple normal range) my TSH was now less than 0.1. I was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism, waiting to see an endocrinologist for more tests (graves , cancer, etc).

What is leaving me most confused is that other than heavy sweating and palpitations (which I was diagnosed with atrial arrhythmia three years ago, before all this) all of my symptoms match hypo. I cannot lose weight for the life of me, I have been trying for 4 years even going as far as developing mild anorexia and still cannot lose weight. I also have severe fatigue where I cannot get out of bed for a full day or more. I don’t understand any of this. How is it possible if my metabolism and thyroid are in overdrive, that I have not lost a single pound? I am also not eating more, eating less if anything. I’m starting to think my tests were wrong? Blood swap at the clinic? I don’t get it.

I stumbled upon a song called “Tarantula Girl” by Violent Vira. The instrumentals use sound soo familiar like another song or songs. Specifically the first 13 seconds. I think it’s the guitar that really sounds familiar. Does anyone know of any similar songs?? I plunked it into Google and all the songs it recommended to me were not similar AT ALL.

My sibling has been an alcoholic his whole life, is in his 40s now. He does not seem to want help or even talk about it. I have also struggled with alcohol abuse in my life and I know the childhood trauma we both endured which led to it. For these reasons I have always maintained a relationship with him and have tried to help him.

Recently, he crossed a line with someone close to me that I do not think I can tolerate. I pondered it for a while but when I went to go respond to his messages I realized I really just don’t want to. I’ve left him on read for a week and I just don’t want to talk to him at all anymore about anything. I have tolerated so much over the years but I just don’t think I can anymore.

It was brought up in what’s left of our family a few years ago to “cut him off” and I said no, give him more time.

I think I am ready now, but I know that if I do this, there will be no going back, so I want to make sure I am making the right decision.

Can anyone share with me their experiences of this? When did you know it was the right time? How do you do it? Do you tell them why? Do you go into detail? Do you keep it short? Do I give him a timeline? Ie, be sober for six months, a year, and then come back? Or do I just let him drown for the rest of his life?

I’ve been an alcoholic most of my life, and I’d really like to quit. I use alcohol mostly out of habit now but it helps me cope with anxiety and PTSD associated symptoms like hypervigilance and chronic fatigue. I’ve tried copious pharmaceuticals and multiple types of therapy in my life. Are there any herbal drinks anyone could recommend that could replace the relief alcohol gives me?

Edit to add: I just want to say thank you so much for all the kind replies and informative responses. I’ve received so many recommendations so far that give me a lot of hope ♥️

I keep checking her YouTube expecting it to be uploaded there but no bueno

Roommate brought home some clearance plants the other day and I noticed one of them is Bacopa. I’ve been interested in taking it as a supplement but now that it’s been plopped onto my lap I might as well use what we have. Does anyone make tea with it? Extracts? Capsules? Not sure what my game plan is as I wanna get the most benefit that I can!

Title.

I reported the supervisor, and they said they talked to him and “he said he would stop”. I work alone with this man on nightshift and he has mental health issues. What are my employers responsibilities in protecting me? What can I do now?

It’s getting really annoying, constantly getting DMs from people shilling their crap MLM and trading and cryptocurrency or magic mushrooms. Like, we are already sleep deprived, stop trying to scam us???

I couldn’t remember why I started taking it, so I decided to look up the actual benefits of it, and it seems to be mostly beneficial for age related issues. I’m in my early 30s, do I even need to be taking it? Does anyone else under 40 take it? What does it do for you?
