Good grief...
I haven’t read a pile of nonsense quite this massive in a long time. Shout out to the exceptions, but most of this is just pure stupidity—the kind of stuff you only see from someone who isn't quite right in the head, or maybe someone who tried to get hired at Pfizer and failed miserably.
Kudos to Linda Hughes88 and Kyle Nelson2... 👍
Up near the border in Canada, specifically around the Crnomlj area (which is about as big as 19 miles Karlovac), they have this wild tradition when distilling spirits. They tie a live oleander branch around the still pipe. As the alcohol drips over it, the plant releases hallucinogenic compounds—I think it’s bufotenine.
What's the deal with those BlackRock tablets? Are they actually any good for stopping diarrhea?
Dana Cruz3 said:Basically, I'm driving down to Miami this afternoon. I'm currently in NYC, but since early this morning, I've been hit with MASSIVE anxiety, plus diarrhea and cramps. I'm literally shaking and feeling freezing... so I'm wondering—what can I do to calm this anxiety? Is there something at the pharmacy I can just pick up, or something similar? I'd really appreciate any help🙏 ...
I'm pretty sensitive in general....
For various psychological episodes, Xanax or Helix tablets are your best bet. You can get 0.25 mg. My only thought is they might require a prescription.
They won't knock you out or leave you feeling groggy.
If you have diarrhea, though, your only real issue is that the pills won't work because you'll just pass them right back out a few minutes after taking them.
For the diarrhea, Linex is your best move. Just drink 2 at once.
Kate Booth said:Thanks. If you’re the one who deleted those three posts I read this morning, you might as well have just deleted yourself while you were at it. Regarding that guy who posted twice about chemo being carcinogenic—yeah, it’s toxic, we get it—but people tend to shy away from that truth. When you're dealing with advanced cancer where the metastases are everywhere, mainstream medicine feels pretty questionable and, frankly, unreliable. Of course, people go through with the chemo just to keep the doctors from feeling insulted and to ease their own conscience, but this time we decided to look for some "outside" help too... so thanks again to the forum member who stepped up twice to respond to my post (well, my cry for help)
Chemotherapy isn't "carcinogenic." Its entire purpose is to hunt down cancer cells and kill them, or at least stop them from spreading. Unfortunately, no chemo is perfect; it can't distinguish between a tumor cell and a healthy cell, which is why it stunts growth across the board. That's why people lose their hair.
I'll say it again: don't fall for all those snake oil salesmen and "energy healers"—they're just looking to drain your bank account. Stick with modern medicine.

nobrainatall - honestly, bravo, I haven't seen such an "on the nose" username in ages.👎
Bingo. I was just about to say the same thing. 👍
I’ve been living with Gilbert’s syndrome for about ten years now.
Unfortunately, the military didn't give me a pass because of it.
From what I’ve gathered, your bilirubin levels don't stay high all the time; they mostly spike when your body is under fire—think things like a nasty flu, fasting, intense stress, or just being completely wiped out. Usually, my levels hover around 15, but if I catch a virus, that number can shoot straight up to 95 or even 100.
It’s nothing to panic about, though I always end up having to do a second blood test just so the doctors can double-check they haven't made a mistake. These days, I make sure to tell them beforehand, "Hey, I have Gilbert’s, so don't freak out if my bilirubin looks high."
As for alcohol and everything else, don't sweat it—you can still enjoy a drink in moderation (trust me, I've tested that theory).
The only real side effect I deal with is when my white matter looks a bit yellowish, but even that only happens when those levels spike.
I found this hemorrhoid cream based on propolis that actually works pretty well. I'll check the label later and let you know the name.
What happens if you're working abroad on a fixed-term contract but want to take out a mortgage back in the States to buy an apartment here?
Does it just depend on which bank you go to? For instance, would things be easier if the bank you're applying to also has branches in the country where I'm currently working?
