They delayed chrome too. At least for me.

It was free before and can be free now. What kind of mental gymnastics do you have to do to justify the greed? Ads are dangerous. You’re entitled to protect yourself.

I don’t understand. By 1:1 ratio you mean every single swipe is a match? How do you accomplish that in the first place? You would either need to have a ton of likes or know beforehand if you’ve been liked by that person, no?

This is the best take I’ve read about this topic and I don’t think that’s a pessimistic take of you.

What are you doing now, if I may ask?

This might be a shot in the dark, but I had this exact same problem a while ago. The cause for this was a running hyper-v vm I never turned off.

Yeah there must be a reason why „nobody“ is using Cutter, interested in that as well.

you sure there is no reason? MDD can be a subtype of PTSD.

I don’t know it might be. I went in with the mindset of wanting it to help me end my suffering, not change my perspective. I think that’s the case for most people.

That’s the thing. We don’t know a cure, but we know of people who were cured. We just don’t really know how or why, scientifically speaking. And as far as I know there was never someone getting cured from t1 diabetes. That’s what I meant by apples and oranges.

Ketamine or suffering & death? Ketamine no question. I agree, but it’s not so black and white how you may perceive it. It might be ketamine or death for you, I don’t know. For me it was certainly. So sorry, if it is for you now. I’m not telling you it’s bad or that you shouldn’t do it. Do whatever you think is the best for you. I went through all of that and found other methods of treatment actually effective of solving the root causes of my suffering and not just the symptoms. Meditation, somatic experiencing and mdma therapy[1] are the main methods I found the most effective, in no particular order.

I’m not looking to argue about your choice of treatment. If you want to share your experience or hear mine, give me a way to contact you. Have a good night/day. [1]https://www.nature.com/articles/s41591-021-01336-3

Yes I did have two treatments. After the first treatment I really liked it and I thought I had my life back. All my debilitating symptoms were gone. Weeks after the second treatment I noticed that my depression and trauma is not gone. It just made me not constantly aware of it, if that makes sense. I was not clinically dissociated as well, just dissociated from the things that caused my suffering. I didn’t think that was a healthy way of living, so I stopped getting treatments. Luckily I found forms of treatments to actually heal after that. I’m incredibly glad I did.

Ketamine didn’t heal me, my perspective just changed, which can be valuable though.

Yes the immediate effects last for a few hours. I didn’t say otherwise. The current scientific literature paints a mixed picture of ketamine. While it can stimulate neurogenesis, there is a definite potential for neurotoxicity. Not to mention that there are no long term studies out there. There are countless people reporting being anhedonic after treatments. Only a few people have been reported to not relapse before 24 weeks.

I’m not making unsubstantiated claims. Don’t accuse me of that, because you don’t like my answer.

Ketamine treatments help people, because ketamine is a dissociative drug. It makes you not feel your suffering, also makes you not feel the positive feelings. That’s why you’re not eg doomscrolling. It doesn’t feel good for you anymore. If you’re not getting treatments regularly, you will be back to suffering in a few months likely. In my opinion, there are better alternatives and more effective treatments than living a life of disassociation.

Let’s imagine you like to eat humans. You ask a guy if you can eat him. He agrees. You eat him.

Then you’re blaming the guy for getting eaten, because he wanted it? My man you just ate a man.

You can easily experience this yourself by doing grounding exercises in a lucid dream. “more real than real” is always the first thing that comes to mind.
