Thanks. Well I go to a specialist tomorrow. The dentist thinks thatbthe tooth may be salvageable.

All good :)

“Hey, it’s alright. Sometimes we have to let some things go to survive whatever we’re dealing with. But you’re able to take care of it now and we’re gonna help with that.”

That hit a bit hard. I’m heading over to the dentist now, but I think this is what I needed to hear.

Okay. I tend to do this reverse procrastination thing where I just get it over with asap. I want it off my plate as soon as possible.

Much appreciated. What kind of cardio?

That’s the same as an implant right? I don’t know much about dentist work.

I take a low dose of Klonopin which works. I’m pretty afraid to take them; I had friends tell me they are addictive. So my prescription bottle I think is from January for a month’s worth. My doctor was actually happy to hear that I don’t take them often; so they kept me on them (they were for as needed). I’m willing to try better alternatives. I was on an antidepressant zoloft, but it made me not feel great. I felt kind of like a robot after a while. It’s what I meeded at the time, but I got off of them a year ago.

I have no shame in admitting this stuff. As a friend once said, talking about it takes it’s power away.

Both.

It’s definitely infected. I had perfect teeth before this. I brushed, flossed, went to regular check ups. The fact I am having these issues feel like my fault. During the pandemic I forgot to schedule an appointment. Then the anxiety issues made me just want to be reclusive.

I don’t feel shame in going to therapy. I used to go up until about a year ago where I was let go from my job. I probably should pick that up, but I want to go to a different therapist. The one I was going to was recommended by a coworker that I was friends with for 10 years, and all of a sudden ghosted by. So, I can’t not associate that therapist with that person.

I will be reaching out today. They open at noon.

Well, I have a supportive wife and two pets. I live in a house. Work a full time job and two for fun jobs. Everything is genuinely fine here. The anxiety issues were likely caused when I worked my old old job.

I don’t follow

I was thinking the implant route too

I think you wrote the perfect response. I wish you the best with your journey.

Man, I keep forgetting about this. I thought we were talking about the band.

SPLIT YOUR LUNGS WITH BLOOD AND THUNDER

I am so glad I don’t have a TV. It’s just the Internet with even more ads, minus the Internet.

I assume everyone is a megaturd until proven otherwise.

I was told by others that it was diet. But I never cared much to do research on that.

That’s pretty cool. I didn’t know that was a thing.

I’m not claiming I am better than anyone else. I have one perk to this lifestyle. I have many more downsides. I need to take supplements because I’ve been anemic. I fart constantly.

I’m allergic to eggs and lactose intolerant. I will eat dairy. I usually have to stick to yogurt. I don’t eat meat because as a child we had to push expiration dates and got sick a lot. Meat just grosses me out. My wife is not a vegetarian. I’m not in this for moral reasons. I don’t fault anyone for eating meat. I’m not pushing a lifestyle here. I’m just saying I don’t smell much.

And, I do throw up. I’m a lightweight when it comes down to drinking. I also generally don’t like other vegetarians because they do act superior. I like to point out random facts that are in opposition of their view, and call them out. Then when they play the moral high ground card; I can do the same.
