    no, we arent talking about dictionary definitions

    private insurers are part of the state for the purpose of how it is presented in the comment i replied to. very much so. irrevocably so. in no sense are they NOT part of the state in that context. they are entwined in the legislative process. they own and operate the capital that makes an entire industry operate in our system, the state we live in. they rule, in a very real sense.

    this is the pretty much the most base level of theory here so it doesnt surprise me that a lemmy user doesnt get it and is trying to "by your logic" me on this. ya'll stay ignorant


  • no problem. with all the adderall shortages ive unfortunately gone through that withdrawal a few times. it blows because you really feel like a massive cold is about to hit you. sharts like 2-3 days after last dose and last 4-7 days.

    concerta is not quite the same type of stimulant as adderall and vyvanse but im sure it has its own withdrawal period.

    i wish there was more readily available information about this stuff for medication takers, because its important. but if you search for "stimulant withdrawals" and stuff like that its very broad and mostly geared towards people with hardcore addiction to illicit drugs, which isn't quite the same for us who take this shit because we have to

    no, its part of the state.

    see, the state IS NOT the government. those words are not equivalent. the government is part of the state. so are many many private industries and companies under capitalism. this is basic theory


  • i take adderall and it is my understanding that vyvanse is closest to that. i know adderall withdrawals suck like a mild cold and irritability. lasts a few days to about a week. so ide give it at least two weeks before you fully decide unless its absolutely miserable and the new medicine doesnt seem to work













  • She'll have an arrest record now for that. That will stick with her. My wife was wrongfully arrested here in Florida and it sucks. The process to get it expunged is a pain in the ass. It costs you money. It takes FOREVER. You can only do it one time in your entire life here, no exceptions. She'll have to explain every single time she gets an apartment, a new job, the whole deal. It will suck.


  • one thing you can do in life is whenever you dont know what a person thinks about you you can think to yourself, "this person likes me and thinks well of me" and just try and live your life in that mode

    if it sounds strange then realize that is already what you are doing except you are imagining them thinking ill of you

    why do that to yourself?

    you can start now. actively tell yourself, "you know, i bet our lives got busy and we all lost touch and i bet they are happy to hear from me. they are still busy with live of course but when they see my message they'll remember me fondly and want to touch base with an old friend"


  • no shame. it has happened to all of us. one night you will look in the sky, see a light and be like "WTF IS THAT?" and it will be something obvious that was just obscured or something like the moon

    i bet it even seemed to move a little strangely and stuff. wild how such a vast space can fuck with your perception, huh?
