i bought an orange juicer. been making orange juice every other day. it’s awesome

and i’m not even over my dishwasher high

cool story, but is there any data that corroborates that? i’m genuinely asking

it is really concerning to see most commenters taking the claim that autistic people are more likely to commit crime at face value, not only doing so without any data to back it up, but also unaware (or willfully ignorant) that the data says otherwise: autistic people are more likely to be victims of violent crime than allistic people. this is a dangerous narrative fueled by preexisting hatred of neurodivergent people that only serves to further marginalize us.

this kind of narrative is unfortunately the expected anywhere else, but seeing it play out in a forum specifically about autism is particularly upsetting. if you’re neurotypical and you’re spreading this here, kindly go fuck yourself (also go look for actual data, not biased anecdotes by sensationalist media); if you’re autistic, though, please please please do not believe this shit, you are the vulnerable side of autism, not the people around you.

I do believe that some traits of Autism could lead to a higher chance to commit some crimes

i’m not sure about that, though. iirc neurodivergent people (including autists) are more likely to be victims of violent crime than neurotypicals

i mean… no shit?

could you give more details (if it’s not a problem to you ofc)

i wish i was warned like that

it frustrates me so much. the doctor that introduced me to venlafaxin never warned me about the withdrawal symptoms, even though i showed concerns about that, and the current doctor never warned me that they would linger for so long

its hard to explain, but it’s this weird and really unpleasant “zapping” feeling in the head, which feels a bit like your brain is going static for a split second. sometimes i get 4, 5 “zaps” one after the other. it fucking sucks and it makes it really hard to do anything that takes even a little bit of mental effort

to make it clear, ive been taking bupropion for about two months now. what happened five days ago was increasing the dosage from 150mg to 300mg and taking off the venlafaxin, which had already been reduced to 37,5mg from 75mg last month

according to the leaflet, although it’s rare, having seizures is one of the known side-effects

my venlafaxin dose was originally 75mg, so he planned to reduce it to 37,5mg for a month then take if off completely. reducing to 37,5 was fine so i thought taking it off would be too ig

fwiw not feeling that annoying ritalin anxiety anymore last month did indeed feel pretty good. your comment gave me a little bit of hope, so ty

i knew venlafaxin withdrawals were nasty, but i didn’t know they could last so long. i thought id be fine after 2-3 days

also, 50 years from now, your kids will ask you about zio israel the same way people today ask about nazi germany and you’ll lie in shame

bye bye

it’s not offtopic. you defended the current-day equivalent of nazi germany and got rightfully banned for it. deal with it

how about not defending a terrorist state? maybe you should ask what israel could do to end the violence since it was the one to start it, not hamas

enjoy your ban

good luck outpacing the flagship instance

the software was created by marxist-leninists. maybe deal with it?
