i’ve been having really bad anxiety since april 2023, di ako sure kung ano talaga specifically kasi i never consulted a professional. I’m 24(F). Since april last year, palagi ako inaattack, to the point na gusto ko na lang mamatay kasi nakakapagod, pagod na pagod na ako. last year june to july was my lowest of lowest point, di ko maenjoy ginagawa ko kasi feeling ko mamamatay na ako anytime and almost every night ako inaatake. my first episode was at random april 3am, mag papa ER na sana ako kasi akala ko mamamatay na ako. bigla ako nagising na mahihiarapamg huminga, parang nasusuffocate, parang nadadrown ako, may pulse oximeter sa dorm kaya inattach ko sa finger ko, my heart rate was slightly elevated 106(normal is from 60-100bpm), mga 30mins ata akong nakaupo lang kasi natatakot ako matulog baka di na ako abutan ng umaga. attempted to sleep pero nagigising ako bigla kasi di ako makahinga kaya hanggang umaga gising ako. takot na takot ako kasi kaka 23 ko pa lang that time and sabi ko ang bata ko pa para mamatay. after ng 1st episode, nagiging almost everyday, minsan at a random day or moment. pag tumatambay kami ng friends ko, pag nasa sasakyan ako, minsan pag nakakakita ako ng patay. the only thing that would help me during an episode is by reading disease related sa nafifeel ko, kaya rin ako nandito sa reddit. pumayat daw ako, sabi ng iba i didn’t look like my age. nag pa ECG naman ako and normal lang, even had thyroid work up kasi baka may hyperthyroid ako pero normal lahat. pagod na pagod na ako. akala ko nga di na ako aabot ng 2024. tonight, umaatake na naman while reviewing for NMAT, was palpitating and felt a little dumb sa left arm ko, wala akong magawa kundi umiyak na lang kasi nakakapagod. kahit anong remind ko sa sarili ko na anxiety lang to, can’t help na umiyak kasi 1 year na akong nagsusuffer. pag nakakakita ako ng namamatay with the same age as me, feeling ko okay lang na mamatay na lang din ako. pagod na pagod na pgod na ako.

For several years I've (32 male) been experiencing significant fatigue that's gradually gotten worse. I've worked with my gp and a variety of other health specialists to rule out/try various things with little to no improvement. These include sleep apnea testing, pulmonary function tests, allergy specialist, internal medicine specialist, various diets (keto, low fodmap, etc.), and medications like Vyvanse (currently on Concerta) along with different anti-depressants (currently on Trintillex). I don't smoke or drink and eat relatively healthy.
Most recently I've been diagnosed with CFS, as a diagnosis of exclusion. One of the things we haven't tried is any form of TRT. About a year ago my testosterone was 337 and since that was in the normal reference range TRT wasn't considered. Most recently with everything else ruled out my GP was open to trying it, however since he hasn't had any experience with it he sent a referral to an endocrinologist who rejected the request due to levels in the normal range. My most recent blood test had:

• Test - 352 ng/dL
• Free T - 6.1 ng/dL
• SHBG - 22 nmol/L

Even though I'm in the normal range could TRT help with my fatigue? I do have most, if not all, of the other hallmark symptoms of low testosterone but I'm not sure if those are just a result of having no energy. With nothing else to try could it be worth considering UGL? The healthcare system in my province is abysmal so looking for a second opinion is pretty well impossible.
Are there any resources for helping understand how the various hormones interact with each other, protocols and what to look for to be able to work with my doctor directly?
Thanks in advance!

Hii sorry share ko lang po feelings ko here TT hi so i’m from a PSHS campus and pakshet!! Napakatalino ng lahat nakakainggit imagine kakalabas ng results boom my day agad (naol) lahat ng nasa friend group ko UPM, UPD passers tapos ako lang hindi!! Ouchie!! Sabi raw ng many sa batch namin akala nila 100% passing rate nanaman si campus namin like sis pano yung mga not passers tangina parinig parinig pa sila edi naguilty mga non passers kasi akala nila nasira nila passing rate ng batch. Bc out na lahat ng results ng big 4 sarap ng my day nila ng “4/4!! All prio courses!!!!” Sana ol sana ol huhu pati parents ko kinakahiya ako imagine ayaw na nila mag post ng anything sa fb after lumabas ung UPCAT results kasi nahihiya raw sila sakin kasi DPWAS lang daw ako and ayaw nilang matanong ng co-parents nila kamusta ung admission kuno ko sa UP ughhhhhh nakapasa naman ako sa other schools na inapplyan ko ADMU and DLSU pero nakakawalang gana ishare sa anyone kasi nakakinvalidate ung achievement na yun kasi sabi ng parents ko na dapat pang daw na pumasa ako and nakakahiya raw na hindi ako pumasa sa UP or something even though I told them many times na DPWAS = pasado sa school just walang slots yet pero no every time na cinocongratulate ako for passing UP (they assumed bc I’m from pshs ugh) they side eye me and smirk like ?? I’m very scared for my future bc I know na DPWAS status is not guaranteed so I told them na I want to reserve a slot jic sa either DLSU or ADMU pero anong sabi nila, wag na raw bc they can’t pay the tf there kaya rn I’m so scared bc these schools’ reservation fee are gonna elapse probably before the DPWAS opens nakakastress putangina buti nalang may baby akong very supportive jusko siguro kung wala siya sira na lahat ng gamit ko saka deads n me rn 🤣🤣 I know naman na I has a major flaw and di ako ganon ka nag review very much kaya di ako napasa sa 1st choice k na UPM (wanted to meet those rats irl) I mean di naman ako to blame fully doon kasi imagine 3 days before the exam nasa ibang bansa ako kasi nagplan na ang whole family ng gala, I didn’t do everything I can kaya I feel so much regret I should’ve taken everything seriously, I shouldn’t have slept annd reviewed and reviewed God I should’ve done everything I could like every medicine known to mankind to keep me focus all day long, gyatt ayawq na sana talaga makuha aq sa UPD and maganda program q
Anw!! Very much good luck sa ating DPWAS ppl!!!!!! Wishing everyone a very sana makakuha tayo ng slot!!!!! Mwah mwah ily everyone
Special shout out po sa baby ko ily v much ilyilyily mwah mwah thank u for being the best person I have by my side hihi I know u’ll recognize me mwahhhh

Currently nasa Crim na ang sched sa review center pero ramdam ko na may dapat pa akong balikan sa Rem. Sobrang nag aalala ako given na 25% ang Rem sa bar.
Sa mga pumasa po, Attorneys, na-experience nyo po bang magka-backlogs during your review? If yes po, paano nyo po nagawan ng paraan na mabalikan? Salamat po sa tips 😖🙏

I'm new to skyrim and modding in general but I read on load order is important that the game runs properly but I have no idea what or how to exactly sort it properly. Could anybody give a general guideline to follow. Currently whenever i encounter any problems i either do: a) Skip the mod entirely after searching the mods and found it might be too complex to follow b) Reinstall Skyrim and hope for the best c) Enable and disable mods to find out which is working or not working
Here's my plugin modlist if it helps

I'm reviewing my current monitor set up and wondering if I could do a bit better. I've got a laptop and port replicator right now that can run 2 displays. This allows me to have 2 x 27 inch displays running at 1080p, the laptop monitor (which I don't really use because it's hard to read) and a 32 inch TV connected through the laptop HDMI port that I mostly use for training videos and teams calls.
I've stuck with 1080p so far as 4k makes the text hard to read. I typically have email, teams, onenote/notepad, 3x browsers and 1 RDP session open at a time. My current set up works well, but I"m just wondering if I can improve ti at all. I've also avoided the ultrawide screens as I'm not sure they would give me the same width as two 27s.
I figure people love to show off their set up... what are you running?

Hi, I’m Maeve, 32/F share ko lang story ko. May nakilala kasi akong Guy sa IG 33/M nag pm siya sakin and sinabi na matagal na niya kong nakikita (February 14 siya nag message sakin 😊) Dumating sa point na curious ako kaya ni replyan ko siya and halos araw-araw na kami nag-uusap, sweet conversation, dirty talks at sometimes nag-a updates. May mga na-share siya sakin before na babae daw ang unang nag pplease, at naiinlove sa kanya. Everytime na mag start ang conversation namin siya lagi ang unang nag rreach out sakin. And i admit naman na gusto ko siya pero never akong unang nag reach out sa kanya dahil ayoko ipakita sa kanya na gusto ko siya. 1month kami nag uusap tapos bigla na lang nahinto ung pag uusap namin. Lagi ko nakikita post niya sa IG and never kong ni-like yung post niya. Ganun din naman siya sakin. Kahit gusto ko siya i-message hindi ko ginagawa dahil ayoko mag 1st move. After 2 months nakita ko na lang in-unfollow niya ko sa IG. Yun lang medyo na hurt ako kasi umasa ako na magkakausap pa kami. Hingi sana ako ng advice anong dahilan bakit ayaw na niya akong kausapin at in-unfollow. Wala naman akong masamang nasabi.

Hello po, newbie lang po and second year college student. Fairview po kase pinaka malapit na branch sa amen ng bpo and balak ko po mag apply for non voice and I have no experience po. Saan po kaya magandang alternative besides sa teleperformance Fairview? Nababasa ko po kasi lately sa mga ibat ibang social media panget review and issues doon especially the toxic environment. So may masusuggest po ba kayo bilang non voice na malapit sa amen na good for newbies and no bpo experience? Although pede naman kahit qc na malapit sa circle preffered or something. Thank you po in advance sa sasagot! 💖

Hello po mga katusok, ask ko lang po ng advice niyo kasi nasa list na po ako ng graduating sa university namin and this 3rd week of May na po yung tapos ng semester namin and sa July po yung graduation. I was just wondering lang po kasi gusto ko po sana na mag take ng boards this August po. Base sa scenario ko po worth it po ba na mag take ng risk for August MTLE? Kakayanin ko po ba yung 3 months na review po? Mediocre lang po ako kasi na student pag dating sa acads or should I wait nalang po sa March MTLE? Salamat po sa mga katusok 😊

Hi Horror fans! I am back with a few more reviews. I normally try to mix up the new and the old the classic and the atypical when I can. My success varies depending on which books call to me. Let me know what you think!
Lowest reviewed to highest.
Survivor Song by Paul Tremblay
Premise- A new rabies virus is running rampant in Massachusetts and Nats is running out of time. Almost ready to give birth and exposed to the rapidly advancing virus she needs help before the baby arrives or she succumbs…
Thoughts- This book almost broke my DNF record. It has been a long time since I gave up on a book and this was close. If it wasn’t a relatively short book (around 300 pages) I don’t think I would have powered through. I disliked one of the main characters throughout (Nats) finding her grating and her attempts at humour embarrassing. It also employs just about every cliché ever put into the apocalyptic or outbreak genre and then makes it worse by being self referential about the cliches. Then towards the end the other main character who I didn’t mind as much becomes so selfish (I understand she’s trying to help her friend but come on) that she willingly endangers a busload of people just for her own ends. All of this is without delving into the awkward and awful kid “slang” Tremblay employs for about 50 pages in the middle of the book. My wife really enjoyed the audiobook for his A Head Full of Ghosts so I will probably try that before writing him off as an author who is not for me but he has a really difficult hill to climb after this. A final thing to note much of this book even when action was occurring felt plodding and slow somehow which I can’t even wrap my head around because rabies infected people chasing down our main characters should be exciting but I could barely keep my eyes open.
Rating- 2/5. Not a 1 because I finished it. Do not recommend. Read any other apocalyptic or outbreak book The Stand or Swan Song comes to mind.
Between Two Fires by Christopher Buehlman
Premise- The Black Death ravages the French countryside and evil lurks behind every corner. A former knight turned brigand encounters a young girl who is more than she seems. Can he find redemption? Does he deserve it?
Thoughts- This is another horrorlit darling. I actually picked up Buehlman’s fantasy novel The Blacktongue Thief first in anticipation of this this novel because it was the only novel of his available at my book store. I enjoyed that and appreciated the author’s humour and dark side. This novel came with a lot of hype as it has to be one of the most recommended books in this sub. The premise of a medieval horror which features demons and devils was incredibly appealing and my wife and I decided to read through it at the same time (her on audio). We both found it pretty underwhelming which I know might be controversial. It’s strange because its well written, I enjoy the characters and the setting but somehow it did not gel with me. The best way I can describe it is it felt almost like a horror show with say 22 episodes. Like most shows with 22 episodes a lot of them are filler or freak of the week episodes and that is how a lot of the middle of the book felt to me. We would travel along with Thomas and Delphine, they would encounter something strange and remarkable (occasionally horrifying) and move on to another area where another strange or remarkable thing would happen. It felt oddly disconnected. Now I need to talk about the ending which didn’t redeem my feelings about a large portion of the book but it was my favourite thing about this novel for sure. It ends in a fantastic way and encapsulates what I think the author was going for throughout the book but didn’t land for me until the end with themes concerning sin, redemption and second chances. This might be the definition of a book I appreciate and can see what others love about it but didn’t register with me for large portions. That ending though, so good.
Rating-3.5/5 stars. An interesting setting for a modern horror novel let down by some meandering adventures which caused it to lose me somewhat before ending on a high note.
Little Heaven by Nick Cutter
Premise- Three hardened mercenaries team up for what seems like an easy job, rescue a woman’s nephew from a cult down south. What it turns into is a fight for their lives which will haunt them down through the years and will make them wonder if they ever really escaped Little Heaven?
Thoughts- My second foray into the work of horrorlit darling Nick Cutter. I enjoyed The Troop and found it suitably disgusting and chilling to earn the reputation it has in the wider horror fan annals. I actually think I prefer Little Heaven overall. One of my biggest gripes with The Troop was its lack of meaningful characters and many of them felt like stereotypes and while some of the characters in Little Heaven fall a little into that category (the Reverand in particular is just a straight black heart) the main group were all well realized in my opinion and despite their obvious shortcomings I came to root for them. Cutter per usual is a master with description, creeping the reader out with every mention of things slimy, crawly or looming. In this book he has included some pages of art which further the atmosphere and really burn some of the images into your mind (one rather tall character in particular). I enjoyed the back and forth between the two timelines, one during the initial trip to Little Heaven in the 60’s and the ugly return in the 80’s. It had almost an It like feeling of needing to overcome your fear when you know what is awaiting you but finding the courage decades later to face it regardless. Similarly to The Troop, Cutter doesn’t give us the Hollywood happy ending either which I enjoy, you get your elements and take what you can from such an evil place. Without going into spoilers there were things about the ultimate confrontation which I disliked (mostly the reveal of what is within the black rock itself) and things which I enjoyed a lot (the ultimate fate of one of the main characters). I think that I have now read what I would consider his two most applauded books I can move onto the one which splits horror audiences in half, The Deep. Overall though Cutter writes horror that really is a page turner and I will continue to read him until he proves otherwise.
Rating-4/5 stars. Another fast-paced creepy jaunt evoking elements of Heart of Darkness (and modern horror takes like Children of Chaos) and the two timeline split involving children obsessed evil like King’s It, Mr. Cutter continues to impress and make it his own.
Empire of the Vampire by Jay Kristoff
Premise- The sun has gone dark and the great empire of Elidaen is at war. Not with their neighbouring countries but the great unholy horde of undying monsters that make up the vampiric kingdoms. Gabriel De Leon will learn what it means to survive and battle against these creatures on his journey to becoming a member of the Silversaints, the great brotherhood of warriors who try to keep the darkness at bay.
Thoughts- Let me start by saying that putting this into my horror reviews is a little of a stretch. This is really more of a dark fantasy book with horror trappings. If you just want straight horror and are not into fantasy as a genre maybe give this one a pass, but if you do enjoy fantasy even a little please check this out. It is epic in scale with fantastic characters and really fun dialogue. If I am being reductive it is like 70% Witcher, 20% Blade and 10% Interview with a Vampire. I happen to enjoy all three of those things quite a bit so I loved this book. The story bounces between three time frames, the framing story in the “present” where Gabriel is imprisoned and telling his life story to his vampire jailor, his origin story taking place when he is around 16 telling of his upbringing and becoming a Silversaint and finally him as a 32 year old on a quest for the holy grail. Kristoff does a really good job at least early on keeping the reader engaged on each story as they bounce back and forth and I never felt too much like I needed to go back to the other time line even though I was always interested in what would happen next. There was one sequence which dragged a little for me (basically the sequence going to and time in Redwatch) but it is a minor gripe in a hell of a book. I am very excited for the sequel which should be out in first half of 2024. This book looks from the title and cover a little juvenile but it is very adult (many brutal murders, battles, amusing and creative cursing and a fair bit of the sexy stuff) so do not be scared off by appearance alone. A definite recommend from me. I could see some people finding the dynamics and themes well trodden from other recent media as mentioned Witcher and things like The Last of Us, but the world and characters Kristoff creates makes it work despite the familiarity.
Rating-4.5/5 stars. A brilliant start to what I hope will be the and amazing vampire series.
Perfume: The Story of a Murderer by Patick Suskind
Premise- Jean-Baptise Grenouille is born with a unique ability, the most extraordinary nose of all time. He can remember, store and create any scent he wishes. To that end he “collects” as many as possible and aims to create the greatest perfume known to mankind. Unfortunately, the best scents that he wishes to capture for his perfume comes from virginal teenage girls and he will take their odour no matter the cost….
Thoughts- I prepared myself for this book based on comments from fellow readers by expecting it to fall into the more distinguished “literature” side of the horror genre. It did but it still surprised me with the directions that it went in. I was expecting more focus lets say on the murders themselves and Suskind does such an amazing job detailing the inner workings of Grenouille’s mind that when we finally get to that part of the book we absolutely understand why they are not really the focus of the novel but merely a means to an end. The descriptions of odours are amazing and a few times I felt myself almost gagging at some of the images Suskind conjures with his prose. I am not a prose person but he does a wonderful job detailing scents in a way you would never think of. The journey Grenouille goes on is utterly unexpected and fascinating. You truly get a strange insight into this broken creature and why he is doing what he is doing and how ultimately the murders mean nothing to him but a way to capture or collect his perfume which is his ambition. The last few pages erupt into a madhouse of defied expectations just when I thought we would have a fairly basic ending Suskind pulls the rug out once again. It also really underlines how animal humanity can be and what we can be reduced to based on our senses.
Rating-5/5 stars. A truly unique novel which defied all expectations. Very different and easy to recommend to horror readers who want something out of the ordinary.

Hello!
Do any of you know of any transient apartments, dorms, or condos near UPM or PGH na nag-aaccept ng 1-month stay? for internship lang. Tas how much din po yung range. Preferably walkable distance of 5-10 mins. (Sana hindi yung Victoria de Manila kasi apparently maraming negative reviews nito)
TYIA 🤍

Feel ko ang desperado na ng tunog ko sa title hahaha. Wala lang. Ang lungkot ko lang talaga these past few months, stressed, at pressured dahil medyo malapit na ang board exam ko.
Pero wala akong malapitan. Wala akong mapagsabihan ng mga nararamdaman ko. Wala akong mapagkwentuhan na makaka-relate sakin. Ramdam kong nagi-isa lang talaga ako haha.
Sa family namin, hindi naman kami nasanay na openly ine-express yung feelings namin and mga problema namin. Madalas kinikimkim lang talaga, or if may rants yung parents ko sa isa't isa, sa akin nila lagi sinasabi. Although paminsan-minsan nangangamusta naman sila kung nakakasagot ako sa review and nagsasabi ng onting advice, never pa ata talaga ako nakapag-open sa mga magulang ko ng deep feelings ko. Dagdag pa na madalas silang stressed sa tindahan namin. Kapatid ko naman may sariling mundo and ganun din, hindi kami sanay na nago-open sa isa't isa.
Yung boyfriend ko naman, hindi ko rin mapag-openan dahil ilang months na siyang depressed. Aminado naman siya nawalan siya ng emotional capacity to talk about things and ramdam ko'ng hirap na hirap din siya i-handle yung mental health issues niya. Kaya ayun, ayoko na rin dumagdag kasi alam ko na hindi ako makakatulong. Pero dahil ang laki ng pinagbago ng dynamics namin, madalas na nahihirapan pa rin ako mag-adjust sa situation namin. Nasanay kasi ako na very open kami sa isa't isa pero ngayon madalas nang emotionally distant siya sakin. Gustong-gusto ko minsan mag-open sa kanya pero nagi-guilty ako kaya di ko na tinutuloy.
May friends naman ako pero may feelings kasi ako na nale-left out ako. Nung college ako, pare-pareho silang magkakasama sa isang univ at ako lang yung nahiwalay. Ramdam kong mas strong yung bond nila sa isa't isa pero hindi ko naman sila masisisi dahil sila-sila ang magkakalapit nun. Ngayon, from 7 people ay naging 4 people na lang kami sa circle namin dahil nagkaron ng issues sa tatlo. Pero kahit ganun, feeling ko saling-ketket pa rin ako. Mas lumala pa to nung February -- tinawagan nila ako na magkakasama sila dorm nung isa naming friend dahil nagbonding pala sila. Hindi ko ito alam dahil wala namang chat sa gc namin.
Medyo napapagod lang ako and makirot sa puso. Gantong-ganto rin yung situation ko nung high school ako na literal na wala akong makasama ... parang flashback lang. Hahaha. Ngayon sa sobrang desperada ko sa comfort or may makasama, kinuha ko sa cabinet yung childhood stuffed toy ko at siya na lang kinakausap at tinatabi-tabi ko sa sarili ko hahahaha.
Yun lang. Ang haba na pala hehe sorry na. If ever mabasa niyo to, kamustahin niyo na lang din mga taong importante sa inyo hehe. Baka nakakaramdam din sila nito and napakabigat niya sa pakiramdam. Ako siguro, ako na lang din muna kakamusta sa sarili ko.

I've seen multiple cases where RAM is a bottleneck when trying to game. Why don't manufacturers make faster RAM?
DDR5: max 8000MT/s typically 6000-6400 on higher end models, consumer mobos use dual channel (128-bit configuration). Only servers and workstations use 4 to 8 channels.
LPDDR5X: 9600MT/s max with 8533MT/s readily available in all high end phones. Phones also use quad-channel (256-bit) communication.
GDDR6X: uses 22400MT/s ram with up to 256 bits on the 4080s and 21200MT/s with 384 bits on the 4090. Now both DDR and LPDDR use double data rate while GDDR6X uses 16x data rate.
Why is GDDR5 slower than phone-memory and why does it use less channels? Integrated graphics could greatly benefit from extra speed and channels as well as scenarios where VRAM is overflowing which would mean older GPUs with less VRAM could perform better in modern games.
GDDR7 is right around the corner with the RTX 50 series offering 28000MT/s and even higher in the future. Why don't PCs use more channels and more speed? Like why not put in LPDDR RAM in PCs. Why can't I buy sticks of GDDR RAM? What's the reason behind all this if fundamentally both GDDR and DDR use similar, small memory modules (2 and 4 GB respectively)? Why is it that DDR5 sticks are connected by a 2×32-bit bus while GDDR6X modules each have their own 32-bit bus? Also, a lot of laptops use LPDDR5X. What's stopping manufacturers from making that replacable / upgradable?
EDIT: To anyone saying my RAM is not the bottleneck I've tested the same game, BeamNG drive with AI cars. First test: I set the cars so I'm just below the VRAM limit. Second test: I'm just above the VRAM limit and using system memory My average FPS halved and my 1% lows became absolutely horrific. Terrible 1% lows can only happen in case of VRAM overflow or CPU-bottleneck. Now I was at 20% CPU usage in the first test and had a CPU bottleneck in the 2nd test which means my CPU (13500HX) didn't like using my RAM either. Also I've seen countless benchmarks which showed faster RAM is incredibly helpful in CPU-bottlenecked scenarios.
EDIT 2: As someone already mentioned I'm getting downvoted into oblivion but that doesn't change the fact that benchmarks show faster ram = more fps
