    talk to your GP or fnp and get a referral. Some will just prescribe you but I’d suggest finding someone to talk to as well. They can help you with aspects the medicine can’t. I was prescribed and never had any real treatment unless I got in trouble at school. This led to me ditching it every few months thinking I was fine when I wasn’t. Obviously this is more expensive and everyone is different so ymmv.




  • Huh? Have you been recently? There is no algorithm. You get gambling ads and bot bullshit no matter what subject you post about. It’s completely flatlined. The brain drain is palpable.

    YouTube will at least find somewhat related videos based on what you view. Instagram/Meta will go so far as to slamming ads in your face trying to guess your mental illnesses with ad displays and getting spookily close simply by the memes and posts you gawk at by how long you hover over them. They completely embarrass Twitter in that area now.

    And Twitter definitely wasn’t always this way. Creating a burner used to be a pain in the ass because it would usually somehow figure out who you were rapidly even on a fresh or sandboxed OS, and start slyly suggesting your old followers and similar. It was downright spooky at times. All of that is gone.



  • I made a burner to see for myself after using it for work a few years ago. It’s a complete dumpster fire now, way worse than before. Bots and shitty animated gambling ads everywhere. Porn bots and scammers are trying to follow you every 2 seconds. Elon’s dipshit musings/ragebait are forced into your feed even when you block him. Any tweets you make get zero engagement. remaining accounts are either bots, racists, fascists, or creators and celebrities moaning and/or hemming and hawing about leaving all the time because muh ego. It’s not even worth witnessing the spectacle.

    It’s also fucking straight up broken half the time. Mastodon is a breath of fresh air in comparison even pre-Elon. Wish more would use it.

    One of the few things I use Siri for is set timers when cooking. I have a very basic iWatch and it’s just a fumble fest for my clumsy ass trying to do anything with my giant hands. So I yell at it instead. Works oddly well. But yeah, would be nice if it wasn’t so clunky and obviously this isn’t always feasible in a loud kitchen.
