I stream old games with my cool spouse, and I also stream multimedia + vhs ephemera on my personal twitch channel. Im dragon.
Just picked up some performance-enhancing drugs (gabapentin)
they put me on it last month, they seemed excited to and said it would help with both my nerve pain and anxiety. so far it seems good. taking it three times a day sucks tho
Yeah I only take it as needed, which is good cuz it does make my muscles a little weaker (which is fine when I'm sitting at a desk but not when I wanna hike haha) and it does a good job of making Various Things Works
My mom takes it for her nerve pain so that's all I ever knew it was for, turns out it's quite a versatile drug.
make a mental note of this for if and when you ever stop taking gabapentin: take magnesium supplements as you taper. that will decrease the withdrawal effects. (corollary: do not load up on huge amounts of magnesium while taking gabapentin)
my doctor didn’t tell me that! I’ve never had a doctor tell me jack about withdrawal, and they put me on an absolute carousel of medications with severe withdrawals for a few years
oof, yeah thank you for the heads up my doc didn't mention withdrawl stuff either
