GBoard autocorrect consistently getting worse. Probably thanks to Google going for feature parity with iOS.

@phnt if I have a panic attack I have to take a lorazepam and if that doesn't help relieve it I have to take xanax as a last resort and trying to type on gboard with that is impossible. You can tell when I've had a panic attack because if you text me it's just random letters but in the length of the word im trying to type. I hate this life but my dr gave me a new med I'm hoping will stop the anxiety and panic attacks altogether

Sounds more like a faggot attack to me.
Stay safe, homie!
@Kirino @phnt It's been like this for like a decade. I didn't try fixing it until recently. I think it's related to heavy alcohol abuse for like 20 years. I think the panic attacks are actually "hangxiety" but this new dr I have is actually trying to find the cause and the solution so I appreciate her a lot
@Kirino @phnt this isn't fully true -- I have been trying to fix it for 6 years but my old doctor just consistently sent me for blood tests and then gave me nothing for it. just another blood text a couple weeks later. kinda glad he either died or had some medical issue because this new doctor actually cares and she's my age and made eye contact when she cupped my balls so
@BarelyEagle @graf @Kirino @phnt I do tanning bed in the winter. Way cheaper.
@captainslow @BarelyEagle @Kirino @phnt she gave me ...another SSRI. this one she told me will cause major panic attacks while I get used to it so I front loaded taking it with taking a small (1/4 xanax or a 0,5mg lorazepam which is like 1/4 what I was prescribed) and I haven't had any issues. felt great for 2-3 weeks. next week will be a month so I will stop taking the benzo the following week and see if I get anxiety or panic attack. if I don't, I will be elated. I'll keep the benzos around in case it doesnt actually work but 2-3 weeks without one when I'd get one at least once a week is a good sign. sorry for the novel
@graf @BarelyEagle @Kirino @phnt I hope you get squared away, fren. I started with a mental health thing in 2010 and it took eight years to find the right medication.
@captainslow @BarelyEagle @Kirino @phnt it's weird because I can just be hacking on pleroma or our front end beta and listening to music and it just comes on. sitting outside when it's cold helps but we're in 30+ (80-90 temps) daily here so I cant do that unfortunately.
I can go without drinking for an entire month, two months and it will still happen so I question if its related or just a side effect of the damage already done

@graf @BarelyEagle @Kirino @phnt I canโt say if thatโs alcohol related or not. I drank my share and just got fat.
@captainslow @BarelyEagle @Kirino @phnt i dont take any other drugs no thc or cbd even. I thought it was early onset hyperglycemia and it was a reaction to low/high blood sugar but nope I was always fine and eating did nothing. if I had 2 pints the anxiety would go away. I think that is just because its a depressant like xanax and lorazepam so it worked the same way. much faster. but I cant be drinking 2-3 pints a day because I have some life changes maybe coing up that I need to be sober for
@graf @BarelyEagle @Kirino @phnt full Xanax is like two beers and a joint
@captainslow @BarelyEagle @Kirino @phnt no weed for me, the thought of smoking weed gives me mild anxiety unironically. I used to smoke it all through high school now i couldn't. no drugs just prescription and alcohol
@graf @BarelyEagle @Kirino @phnt I drink one or two, but Iโm drying out to lose weight. I use a little RSO chocolate but very small doses. forties are where the invoices from the 20s and 30s come due.
@captainslow @BarelyEagle @Kirino @phnt I always have a single pint with dinner since I was young even. I mean can't be getting shitfaced
@graf @captainslow @BarelyEagle @Kirino @phnt Nigga youโre a White man in Canada stop telling the doctor youโre sad or theyโre going to kill you.
@captainslow @BarelyEagle @graf @Kirino @phnt Vitamin D
Brother, you're probably right about the alcohol but that's okay what's bad is those anxiety meds will make your anxiety worse. Barely Eagle is correct about sunshine
@phnt sorry for hijacking your thread brother I just think its funny. my friends in text and matrix call it xanax fingers now

@SilverDeth @WTFPurpleAlpaca @phnt my dread right now is dying alone ngl
@graf @SilverDeth @WTFPurpleAlpaca @phnt Thatโs what children are for.
@GenesRus @SilverDeth @WTFPurpleAlpaca @phnt yeah, let me find somebody trustworhy enough to not fuck off with the kids and take all my money
@graf @SilverDeth @WTFPurpleAlpaca @phnt Donโt get too caught up in the importance of a perfect relationship is all.
@graf @phnt @SilverDeth @WTFPurpleAlpaca I've accepted it. 
Statistically my sister will outlive me, so she'll probably arrange a funeral at least. (Open or closed casket will depend on how long it takes someone to discover me, and whether I have a cat that will start eating me.)

@echo @phnt @SilverDeth @WTFPurpleAlpaca I have a very convoluted final will and testiment involving 5 people who need to complete an objective to pass on to the next person and so on and so forth until the final location is revealed and that person is to hand the key and the address to the bank the will is stored to the executor and they must be alone when they read it
because my life has never been easy, why not make it fun when you go out

I won't lie, I look at the prospects for my boy, and it worries the shit outta me. Women are fucked up these days, and hold all the cards if things go south.
I am a younger Gen-X, and I don't even know what to say to young men these days. Nothing that worked for me is even remotely relevant. (Most of it would get you tossed in a cell). They built bitches different 25 years ago. (And even they are a fucking irritating handful unless properly managed).
Wanting something more meaningful in life eats at you, and given the absolute brain rot out there, I don't have an easy answer. Getting pussy is easier than ever. Getting one worth keeping... Christ, that's rough modern day.
If anyone knows where to find a ride-or-die chick that's not nuts, he's not me.

@SilverDeth @phnt @WTFPurpleAlpaca it's not just your boy you need to be worried about. it's all men. women think their shit dont stink and needs to be on a pedestal. no woman is worth the heartache. it's just a sad thing to think about. dying alone at home or in a hospital or hospice with nothing to show for your life. no family other than brothers or sisters. they don't really care like a child or a wife would
@graf @phnt @WTFPurpleAlpaca Correct. The only unconditional love in the world is your kids. Mine are the only reason I'm still breathing.
Women themselves are mercurial, and unlike your kids, there is ALWAYS a condition attached. At the wetware level, female affection is transactional. I have never seen an exception. If your "value" is greater than hers, that transaction fee is lower. Or at least, it was once upon a time. The cell-phone plague has convinced a whole lot of hard 5's and 6's they are 9's and 10's.
I got nuthin man, my own life experience from the 90's is worthless to young guys. I may as well have grown up on Luna.

I'm not trying to be a dick, because I deal with all that and have for 26 years.
Accept it. Accept that you will die alone. How many hundreds of millions of people have died alone throughout human history?
The funny thing is โ you still might not die alone, man. I'll remember you in my prayers.
Sidenote: Do you keep your electrolytes up? Dr. Berg's clears the brainfog for me sometimes. Neurtransmission requires electrolytes. Especially, if you've ever been a drinker, you might need some. You've probably already tried this though.

@Svantovit I've had all kidn of quack and seemingly quack but not thrown at me over the years brother. i dont drink I cant sleep, take lorazepam because its cheaper than dayvigo which only works if i double the dose making the 2x more expensive
Same. They don't know what they're fucking doing. I often kind of nigger-rig my sleeping when things get rough. One thing I've tried is Dramamine, and it usually (not every time) starts to knock me out in an hour. It only keeps me out for ~4 hours, but it helps when the dread begins creeping in...Kanna also helped, but you can't take it with anything modulating serotonin. Kanna actually really helped.
@Svantovit if I absolutely CANT sleep after trying for 7-8 hours I will take 2mg lorazepam because it has a shorter half life but is faster acting. then I don't wake up feeling groggy the next day. I have dayvigo but its soooooooooo expensive
