What... is that thing, mixed in with the no alcohol and no cigarettes?
Well, I suppose if I am asking that, then I am unlikely to be doing it, so I have that going for me I guess 😜

Daily iron supplementation not a great idea unless you are a non-menopausal adult woman
Antipsychotics can really help if you need them, but Jesus Christ no they do not make you feel good. Most of them make you feel dead inside, just completely fucking numb to life. That can be better than without, but they are not a cure. They're a treatment for a symptom, with serious side effects.
Sometimes those side effects can be permanent too, like eyes and tongue moving around without you wanting them to.
antipsychotics
Weed does improve life quality when everything else is in a good condition
antipsychotics do not feel good
whoever posted this has never been on those drugs
also, u shouldn't take iron if you don't have a deficiency. it's a pretty bad idea actually
Might be aimed at women. Most women who have periods are iron deficient due to blood loss during their periods, and most of the difference between mens and womens multivitamins is extra iron for this reason. But also, you can just eat some red meat or spinach
u shouldn't take iron if you don't have a deficiency. it's a pretty bad idea actually
is the source your arse?
it is fine to consume iron rich foods when you don't have an iron deficiency. iron supplements don't really work most of the time, except the iv one, that fucker works just fine.
you want to raise your hemoglobin? eat liver (cooked of course).
I used to take iron supplements because I was worried about not getting enough iron. I had routine blood work and the doctor said my iron was too high and to stop the supplements. This also happened to my sister and seems to be a fairly common issue.

More info here about high iron levels.
how much did you used to take in iron supplements? in mg/day.
several members of my family have a history of anemia, and supplements never worked that well for us (supplements are prescribed at 100mg pill once daily). the best thing we can do, is eat liver once a week or twice a month.
the page you linked to seems to be more about poisoning from supplements (it talks about consuming 4000+mg of iron supplements at once) and hereditary iron irregularity than it is about high iron level. also it states that excessive iron buildup from diet alone is not common.
of course don't take supplements unless prescribed, but don't shy away from iron rich food (unless told by you doctor).
Life flexing is for Facebook. We're all depressed here.
Nuh uh! I’m anxious too.
Anxious but not depressed gang here. Everything is awesome and I love where I am in life and everything around me… but also something is constantly wrong and makes me uncomfortable but it’s never evident what it actually is WOOOO!
Mirtazapine instead of the antipsychotic, it’s an anti depressant that’s helped my sex drive mentally and physically. So happy I have it a try.
Sorry, but you're looking for /lemmybejudgmentalandpessimistic. The is /lemmybewholesome.
You can grow vegetables. Most are pretty cheap if you go to stores like Aldi. They sell a 2 pack of zucchini for like $2. Zucchini my friend. One of the tastiest veggies there is.
And there are many ways to manage stress. You can choose healthy or unhealthy options.
I ain't saying that choice is easy or without work. I'm mearly pointing out that we all have agency.
heck im good with stable necessary income. discretionary is gravy although nice. next walkable city and then sleep. maybe switch tose in importance. friends sure and exersise should happen practically naturally if I can walk everywhere including the library. no need for the drugs or supplements as eating right will cover it for me.
Well low-dose antipsychotics are a thing, too. I'm on them and I don't feel "bad" or anything. I can never tell if they are helping me or not tho, same as any other psych med I've tried. Only difference is that I have not had any behavioral dyscontrol at work since taking them. May or may not be related. I never know. At least I'm no longer being threatened to be terminated.
