Yeah, so you should ask your doctor instead of just doing it.

That's my point, ask your doctor. I'm not saying you can't skip, but you shouldn't just because some random person said so.

I wouldn't advise people to skip their medicine just because they don't feel there are negative effects, it's dangerous.

Is this young Trixie Mattel out of drag?

I wouldn't consider exclusively using Lemmy for social media "hardcore". Let's be real, people don't use social media because the content is important. I use Lemmy when I need a break and such, see some memes, read an interesting article someone posted. And Reddit sometimes turns up when I search for opinions on products, solutions for maintaining my home, stuff like that. Usually just useful, old posts. I keep in contact with people I actually know through private chats, mostly Signal. What else do you need?

In addition to what have been said in other comments, it's useful to track your period for any serious irregularities. Your period can tell a lot about the state of your body, and those can be a sign of illness and such. For example, missed periods are very common in eating disorders; it might be a wake up call in many cases.

Hey, that's the metaplot of the movie!

As the other commenter said, the bottles actually get recycled; if they weren't they wouldn't have a system where they pay for the return. And it doesn't make sense to count it as "pay", as in compare to a normal job pay, cause it's not. Dude is walking around and cleaning the environment, gets free PS5 out of it.

I use F-droid, it's FOSS apps only. It's great, but unfortunately I stil have to use play store for non-FOSS apps.

Just a simple example I googled:

  • Sit in a quiet, comfortable place.
  • Set a short time limit if you’re a beginner (e.g., 5–10 minutes).
  • Focus on your breath and notice bodily sensations.
  • Gently return your focus to your breath when distractions occur.

With body sensations, you can focus on the taste in your mouth for a minute, then switch to sounds you hear, how your fingertips feel etc. I usually close my eyes to better focus on each sensation. Just relax and gently observe what you experience right now.

I agree 100%. It's a shame, because pretty much everyone would benefit from just trying to meditate once in a while.

These are some of the most common problems people seek therapy for, and there are several methods therapists teach to address these, such as meditation and mindfulness. It takes practice, but they have a lot of potential to help with intrusive, snowballing thoughts. You can practice anytime and mostly anywhere, but doing it is the hard part.

 

I am looking for a reliable and preferably privacy oriented alternative to Skype credit - a service that allows me to call landlines and mobile phones via an app or website. I’ve heard of Yadaphone and Yolla, but I don’t know much about them or where they are based. Do you guys have any experience with these? Do you have other recommendations?

I want to stop using Google translate app to translate text in pictures I take, which is something I often need to do while traveling abroad. Do you guys have any foss app recommendations? Or maybe a website?

 
 

I need a Google account to sign up for a service I'm interested in, so I want to create a bogus account for that. Problem is I need a phone number to verify it. I obviously don't want to use my actual number, so I tried some of those online temporary number services, but none of them worked. I get different error messages when trying to use them: "Number has been used too many times", "Number can't be used for verification", stuff like that. Do you guys know of a way to get a working number?
