The thought of being high gives me anxiety.

You made zero mention of your diet. What are you eating?


I eat 2 meals a day. I’m currently adjusting my diet after reading a book about what to eat based on your blood type. So, eating more rice, more Mediterranean foods and veggies, more cucumber. I cut out all sodas about 3 months ago before I quit smoking (I would have a coke at lunch and a slice of pizza on my office days). Last night I ate chicken meatball gyros with cucumbers and tomatoes. I usually don’t have breakfast, haven’t had bacon in months. Lunch now is usually leftovers.

Quit those meds


I’d love to be off Prozac. And I feel great when I’m off it, but I’m a major depressive and prone to some deep drop offs when I’m off. Last time I stopped, I had to go and “depopulate” a flock of 200,000 organic broilers (meat chickens) and the whole scene took me to a bad place. I probably need a new job, which is why I started my masters in public health and I’m halfway done. Hoping to move over to public health and still respond to large scale emergencies. Working on my task book hoping to get credentialed for level 1 responses like Katrina. Right now I’m type 3 all hazards credentialed for Operations, Planning and Logistics Section Chief. Maybe one day I’ll have to leave the career entirely, but helping people is about the only thing that makes me happy.

That isn't referring to repressed memories. Intrusive memories are classic for ptsd.

Where do they come from if they weren’t there? A memory that is gone but then comes back? Sounds a lot like what people refer to as a repressed memory.

Also, the idea of a memory being repressed isn’t disproven, it’s just largely unsubstantiated at this point. However the idea of “forgetting” something and then remembering it again is widely accepted.

You’re arguing whether something prevents the memory from coming back rather than it being forgotten, to me, is largely one and the same.

Are you telling me I made it up?

Im not telling you anything except for repressed memories in the sense of what I linked are bogus. But, people can make things up without realizing it. Confabulated memories.

This is from your own article:

“But a new review, published by extraordinary and thoughtfully skeptical researchers, including the aforementioned Elizabeth Loftus, finds that widespread belief in repressed traumatic memories persists in the therapy industry. Between 60 and 89 percent of modern mental health clinicians believe that traumatic memories can be forgotten, repressed, or suppressed. A study of clinicians who utilize EMDR to treat trauma found that fully 93 percent of these clinicians believed that traumatic memories can be “blocked out.””

You should go 90 days without smoking and then post up on the couch with a gas mask or comically large bong. Film her reaction when she walks in

Or show her this pic and say "yes babe you're right, look at what Laremy Tunsil was able to do after giving up smoking. Got drafted by the Dolphins."

Then reveal to her that the gasmask video was posted 10 MIN BEFORE THE NFL DRAFT and that 1) he still got drafted and 2) he went on to be a 5x Pro Bowler

Myths persist among professionals. Not a surprise. Some still believe in "photograpic" memories too.

I’ll do it if someone offers me a couch to sleep on, just in case.

Myths persisting and something being accepted between the vast majority of professionals is quite a jump.

Not really. It takes awhile for some to let go of things there were taught incorrectly.

ssri's are going to end up making things way worse

that much weed is insane. 20 fricking years!!!???

seriously if you are that fricked up, dont have kids.

I think all I needed was someone as educated and well informed as you to tell me to not worry about.

So let me get this straight, my abuse as a child doesn’t allow me the grace to have any feelings about it, but a post on tigerdroppings grants you the license to have a melt down and come bitch in the thread?

Take your own advice and move on. You’re not needed here, and I doubt you are needed anywhere. No one will miss you when you’re gone and that should happen sooner than later for the betterment of everyone around you.
