Just got promoted..

[Finnydot]

Pretty good day today. Went to my counselor in preparation for seeing the psych down at the free Care clinic tomorrow. We talked about getting my record done and out of the way. Talked about seeing my kid for the first time in months this last weekend. Then game planned for my appointment tomorrow. I showed up to work 2 hours early because I was due the street and figured I'd get some extra hours. What do I find? They need help on a higher paid position in the kitchen. I'll be actually helping make pizzas instead of just cutting. Which, when I prove I'm capable, will get me a .50 cent raise.

Then I get to see infinity war tomorrow night!

Pretty sweet day today.

[ill nik-A]

U got a kid. Man up

[Destroyer]

So you’re being promoted from pizza cutter to pizza maker?
Props?

[Witty]

Props, for real. You have to start somewhere.

Keep going, for your son.

[~RustyGunZ~]

Sheesh what a life.

[dead man]

Props, for real. You have to start somewhere.

Keep going, for your son.

[uh-oh]

Good shit my dude. Life is like driving on ice. You gotta steer into the slide and the car will righ itself. It dont make sense instinctually but word

[Amen]

Wait, you work at a pizzaria?

I mean congrats on the promotion but you sound really content with JUST $0.50 increase to throw pizza dough in the air and place it in the oven man...

Why don't you invest you time in a field you can make a career out of? I mean you're a grown ass man working in a pizzaria. Typically kids work there or the owner and family members/children dude.

[Finnydot]

LMFAO

Netcees the last month: "quit rapping and improve your life."

This month: "oh you made a jump up? DIDN'T JUMP HIGH ENOUGH, BITCH!"

lol come on.

A raise is a raise. A promotion is a promotion. A small victory is still not an L.

[Destroyer]

That’s true, but you can’t post about a lifestyle update and not expect everyone to critique your life

[Amen]

In all honesty I feel everyone here that gives you a hard time but wants to see you succeed man.

Your just delusional dude. That is the problem.

[veritas]

Good. What is your next step?

[For Battling]

Good. What is your next step?

This.

Less hate, more love.

Congrats on the promotion big homie. If we don't make progress we only lose ground.

[The Dead Poet]

promotion is a promotion. You're moving forward. Good shit.

[Finnydot]

Appreciate it. Yeah veritas the KC Care clinic is tomorrow. Hopefully I can get something to level me out. Diode pegged the manic like crazy. I went straight down after the high of posting my record. This week is the climb back up.

[El Muffin]

I must say its endearing how honest you are

We have this In common

Doesn't quite yield good things tho 98% of the time

[Geno]

Sheeeeittttt. Props. Before you know it theyll be letting you put the pepperoni on.

Big tyme shit

[Finnydot]

Lol they call it "cheese side" but I'm essentially throwing the finishing touches on the pizza. Anything that goes under the cheese, one person does. Then I take over and finish it. It was actually pretty cake. I'm not saying I'm ready for Friday night, but it definitely went better than I thought.

And .50 raises don't happen all the time at most jobs. It's policy at my store. They have to, really. You hire someone on at shit wages, make them earn a two dollar raise by learning every position in the kitchen. I got an unfair advantage tho. I'm at an increased wage already from having been there a long time already. So once I get this, I night actually get more hours and more money.

[Amen]

SO if you are at the cap, what is next? Management position, I'm assuming?

[Ghost1]

Props, for real. You have to start somewhere.

Keep going, for your son.

[Diode]

these are good things to do.

[Exis]

Congrats
...?

[Flow]

1300 extra a year isnt a bad increase for such a small change in duties. Well done.

[veritas]

Ok....Fin:

you got this spot. Good. What else are you going to do to ride this momentum? Are you still smoking herb and drinking alot of energy drinks?

[sral]

Went to the Care clinic today. Got prescribed lexipro for depression, a sleep aid, and a quick release anxiety pill. I gotta call to get the scrip filled, but that's all tomorrow. Tonight I'm at work doing dough. So that means I can just listen to music all night while I'm working and that will be nice.

Later tonight I'm going to the midnight premiere of INFINITY WAR.

TODAY IS GOOD.

please don't abuse your meds.

[Amen]

There are better options then medications man... All those medications will do is suck the remaining life out of you till you eventually turn to heroin, OD and become a statistic man.

Eating better helps.
The gym helps.
Solid 8+ hours of sleep helps.

Idk man, I don't think medications always the answer. BIG PHARMA is killing us off and most don't realize it.

whatever this man tells you, always do the opposite.

[For Battling]

Yea uh finny I’m not one to agree with diode but true stuff never listen to amen

[Finnydot]

LMAO... Nah, I keep having to explain this to people anyways. I hear horror stories all the time about medications. I have no idea how I'd feel with them completed to how I feel now. If I can at least get a base of comparison then I can make an educated opinion. Until then, the way I feel is just the way I've always felt. Let me get a good solid 2 months of feeling "regulated" and I'll go from there.


And Chris, I've stayed away from hard drugs my whole life. Only ever smoked weed, drank, and did shrooms. I have no desire to be "pilled out". I've seen what that does to people. I don't want to have dead eyes like those people.

[boof]

its true tho changing my diet killed off my anxiety and helped my mood a lot

or maybe that was just moving to somewhere dope and away from the black hole i was born in

[~RustyGunZ~]

Either works as well as a ton of other stuff

Don’t take the pills finny

[Witty]

Changing my diet changed my life, but I am also going to be on medication for the rest of my life.

Some people genuinely need it. Others just need to change how they live. I need both.

[big baby]

lmao

[uh-oh]

i don't want to be the don't take the meds guy but i think its PHOOEY pseudo science

like you i went to a government run type center back when i was at rock bottom, basically within talking with a therapist/psychologist whatever for an introductory session they threw me on lexapro and some blood pressure shit. i don't think they wanted to give me anxiety meds because i was honest and said i smoke weed and drink to get fucked up? but the blood pressure pills were supposed to curb the anxiety, but yea they hit me with the diagnosis of severe depression and social anxiety

i was like ok whatever, and tried their regimen for awhile. it did literally nothing. they doubled my dosage of lexapro and it still did nothing, i went in again and they were going to double it again and put me on something else. i stopped going.

then i came to the realization i was depressed because i was a bum with no job who did fuck all. my social anxiety is just me not fucking with people. this contributed to my depression because i was trying to pretend like i enjoyed others company

it is literally all in your head. anyone who has benefitted from psych meds or whatever you call this stuff, mental health pills whatever, bought in. i didn't buy in. they did nothing. im placebo proof. there is no way for them to gauge if you have a chemical imbalance, it is literal malarkey. you feel better by feeling better.

i did everything they didn't want me to, but i wanted to. isolated. got FOLDED on the reg. played video games, disassociated women from being people to being objects that extort cum from my genitals and sociopathically only treat them like people to meet that end.

but the main thing was securing employment that is somewhat meaningful and having people rely on me. a man needs purpose. not only taking care of my pops but having a job where if im not there everything goes to shit. but word

i basically willed myself into happiness in the bleak hell hole that boof escaped from.

if you ruminate in thoughts of misery you will be miserable. be happy

if medication can do that for you godspeed. im not trying to deter you if you think it will help

for all i know they didn't do shit because i wasn't actually depressed?

[Inno]

Everyone is different I guess


I’m skeptical that depression is even real, don’t mean to offend anyone

[Witty]

Clinical depression is absolutely real. It's a physiological condition not a psychological one. By which I mean, if you are clinically depressed, no amount of happy thinking is going to help, you have an imbalance of chemicals in your brain, that's what the medication is for.

Trust me, I have tried many times to come off my medication, and I just end up slowly descending in to hell...every time. My medication is also for OCD tho.

[veritas]

Fin what is the anxiety med?

[Saint]

Ive been doing ok w/o bp meds
I do think its shitty ya need a pill to function in life & we havent cured mental illness yet.

[Amen]

...

whatever this man tells you, always do the opposite.

So you condone prescription drugs?

[Amen]

It can be cured from with in. No medications going to cure mental illness. It treats the symptoms.

[PancakeBrah]

Yo it's crazy how Amen can't make a single good post.

[Finnydot]

Fin what is the anxiety med?

Not sure, gonna call tomorrow to get the scrips filled.

[Diode]

So you condone prescription drugs?

an hero.

[Geno]

Take the pills finn
Then make a video for ncs and tell us all how much better you feel

i hear what you are saying, there is just literally 0 science to support this. it is complete guess work. they assume you lack the "normal" amount of serotonin or whatever happy jizz chemical so they put these pills out that "regulate" it.

you got the blood of the irish doggie. i 23andme'd myself and have more than i'd like to admit. we need to work like dogs in the field. you are unhappy because you aren't physically taxing your body and taking heads.

but yea i think its one of the few things you can cure without meds. i willed myself out of depression. i can't will myself out of aids. which i will eventually get probably. i'll give it a shot though

[Amen]

Forgot, we live in an opiate and benzo epidemic era.
