WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO im kinda in the mood for learning a card game. kinda wish mtg arena would come out public or artifact or something. my brain wants learning thats a little less crushing than dota. then again, i can just poor that into studying i guess! hard for me to play games lately XD | ||

It's not super popular, but is pretty good. i mean, i have no idea about mtg arena, but i know they were doing a new release with like, modern updates to the client so i was hoping that would turn out okay. I haven't tried spellweaver. I should look it up i suppose. | ||

this thread is a really great start though because of all the self-deprecating, not serious at all, humour the best kind there is also I'd be a bit wary of symptoms of psychosis and shit, so they can switch the meds quickly from the sidelines depersonalization looks really scary, if anything could scare me and I wasn't a manly man just oozing dat toxic masculinity | ||

SSRIs deal with too many serotonin receptors existing and having too much synaptic serotonin going into and being consumed by those receptors by antagonizing (blocking) the receptors psychedelics are just serotonin agonists (but with distinct affinity profiles for the 14 types of serotonin receptors and also other receptors) that flood the receptors and seem to induce downregulation of the receptor amount both actions indicating that one cause of these things is having too many serotonin receptors of certain types? but theres probably versions of depression that are associated with other neurological issues, and those are the kinds where neither SSRIs or psychedelics would help also yea psychosis and depersonalization/derealization r scary remember 2 drink ur coffee xd | ||

Occasionally drinking tea, but not daily. Actually only reason i drink tea is because I like working / studying at starbucks and you know gotta buy something. I might drink coffee in the future but not till i get a lot of stuff straightened out (when night classes I imagine it'll be required). | ||

When I can work on some methods on calming that down, I'll probably start drinking again. My anxiety isn't super bad but I wanna keep as many negative factors that are under my control down as possible | ||
