I (27 F.) never had a relationship,hookup,etc. with a man/women, although I do want a family and I do like to spend time with children I am absolutely terrified of having any relationship with a man other than friendship.
Before you ask I did go to therapy for some time and discussed with my friends that supported me giving me advices as "you have to give it a risk,no one will know about your existence if you don't put yourself out there", well I did,I went on a couple dates,tried to make the first move,tried to wait for a long time to let feelings grow for each other-but as soon as I feel any type of sexual interest I start distancing myself from that person. Eventually I panic so bad that I was called insane,or turned eventually crazy.
I never experience abuse or SA by the oposite sex ,I grew in a loving family with both parents,have friends that genuanly enjoy my company,have a good job abroad and still strike for new hights to be better but only if I'm on my own. I would appreciate if someone was in a similar situation to tell me how they overcome this if you did and if not how do you live with the fact that you will be on your own for the rest of your life?
If you read till this sentence thank you for listening and not judging me for my silly post but I genuinely feel stuck and hoped that at least here I could find an answer to my weirdness :)
Have a good day

my questions is "The following limit calculates the derivative of a function f(x) at x=a."
f'(a)= lim h approaching 0 ((4+h)^3 -64)/h
Which of the following statements is true? and then i need to chose between :
f'(0) where f(x) =x^3 +64
f'(0) where f(x)=(x+4)^3
f'(4) where f(x)=(x+4)^3
f'(0) where F(x)=(x-64)^3
​
im not sure how to proceed for these types of questions... i've never seen anything like it but what i tried to work was :
f'(a)= lim h approaching 0 ((4+h)^3 -64)/h
= lim h approaching 0 (4 + 4h + h^3 -64)/h
= lim h approaching 0 (4h +h^3)/h
= 4+h^2
it's simplified but has nothing to do with the format of the MCQ and idk how to get there...
but i don't see how it helps given the answers given... am i totally of base (which i assume) or is it in the right direction? I feel like i need to establish "roadmaps for these kind of things so i get clear on what steps to take depending on what the pof puts in front of my eyes but it'S hard to get a clear idea with post things and i'm completly lost with this one...
any help is appreciated!

Hello all,
It’s been a long time coming but I decided to take my exam on 8 April 2024.
I actually started studying about 36 hours prior (right after work on Friday). I solely used the Exam cram video on YouTube and some questions on the security app for IOS.
I realize I am an outlier but this test was mostly a validation of my knowledge over 10 years.
My thoughts on the exam:
A lot of gotchas. This test is full of questions where the difference between right and wrong is verbiage near the end of the questions.
A lot of fluff. Many of the questions include about 70% filler and 30% of what they want.
THE CISSP IS A VOCABULARY TEST If you know the vocabulary and what it really means you can infer the right answer based on what’s in the problem alone.
Be mindful you aren’t the technician, you’re a leader.
So yeah any questions I’m happy to answer within the guidelines and NDA.
Stop being scared, actually sitting down for the exam is 80% of the battle.
Thanks all! Got my endorsement approved about a week or two ago.
EDIT: not 103Q. I took it early April so whatever first gate+ 3 questions were so maybe 128Q I believe?

So I had my YouTube connected to my old TikTok account, somebody messaged my sister years ago, and said, did you know this is happening to Anna, my dad found out about it. The allegations that was posted on YouTube. Everything had to be deleted dating will be back to 2004. Even the disks I had saved on my childhood. My dad said if you screw me over your school of yourself because I’m all you have, I can only be around my family get together’s. Don’t post your relationships on the Internet. Nobody understands. But I told everybody it was a lie. To save my family from falling apart I don’t want to lose my niece and nephews. If I love them, I had to delete them be careful what you post on YouTube because I’m really lucky the video didn’t get downloaded and sent to a officers who’s only goes to destroy lives don’t trust cops. This is why I don’t answer my door. F the police.

Hello! This is my first time posting on here. I appreciate any and all feedback anyone can give me!
There's a little bit of context I want to give before I lay out the story, but it is all relevant:
My husband M35 (I will call him PK) and I F31 work at a private school together. He is the principal of the school and I am the secretary. Part of our salary is that we can live on campus in teacher housing. Our home is visible from the school and most of the school is aware that we live in the home.
Since I am the school's secretary, I can access the school's phone lines on my cell phone. So when I am away from my desk, I can answer calls, check messages, etc. It was after school today when my cell phone started to buzz. Someone was trying to call the school. I was already home and working on something, so I decided to let it go to voicemail – sometimes parents will call to let someone know that they are running late, etc, and I can just inform the afterschool teachers later.
The ringing eventually stopped and they left a voicemail. I checked the voicemail and it was a man's voice saying, "Hey, this is F*** You, B***. Principal PK I know where you live and––" and then it cuts off. I had to play it a few times to be certain of what I heard, and I couldn't believe what I was hearing.
I immediately call my husband (who is on a work trip) to tell him about this, and he didn't seem too concerned, but he did call our local Sheriff and they said they would patrol the area and were looking into the phone number who left the voicemail. I also informed our administrator, who was looking into the phone number, as well.
Does this sound like a real threat? My husband seems to think it's someone who is trolling and trying to freak people out. But the fact that he knew my husband's name and said that he knew where he lived was something that really freaked me out.
I'm not sure what to think. I'm just constantly watching outside for someone to show up. I don't want to freak out but I don't want to relax too much either. Any thoughts on this?
Just some notes:

1. The authorities were called and the phone number was given to them.
2. I searched the phone number on every reverse-caller ID website I could and the results were all people that we didn't know. I have a feeling this person used a spoofed cell phone number.
3. I can't leave my house because I have two dogs and no car.

TL/DR: My husband received a strange, threatening voicemail and I am wondering if it is a possible scam or something I should be legitimately be scared about.

Hi Folks! Just taking a moment here to advertise an opportunity for you to play some D&D in a Play by Post format over the next month or so. There is an annual competition I run on RPGCrossing.com called Outplay. This year, we are playing D&D 5E (using mostly the Basic Rules). Applications are open through May 27th, and the majority of the competition runs through June. The forums folder is here: https://www.rpgcrossing.com/forumdisplay.php?f=20780 Happy to answer any questions you might have, and hope to find a few new players to game with. Thanks for your time!

I’ve been scrolling this sub for a few days and I see a lot of students panicking about the AP World Exam. Here are some tips from a teacher who has been teaching this course for the past decade.

1. Make sure you understand the rubrics for the essays. -Use APE for the SAQs (answer, provide evidence, explain how the evidence supports your answer) -an intro and two strong body paragraphs will get you a solid score on the LEQ -you can get a 7 on the DBQ with only 4 docs if your writing is strong. -If something like HIPP confuses you, SKIP IT! Use your time getting other points.
   
2. Focus less on memorizing dates and more on learning chronology.
   
3. When going over vocabulary, think about the SPICE-T theme and unit/time period it goes with. Here’s a gimkit game with 400 ish words gimkit vocab
   
4. At this point, focus on big events or trends. Causation is the skill that is tested the heaviest on the exam.
   
5. Still freaking out? Here are 10 events you should be able to explain:
   

-Increase use of trade routes during 1200-1450
-Growing power of land based empires
-Columbian exchange
-Political Revolutions during 1750-1900 (focus on Haiti and Lat. Am)
-Industrialization in East Asia during 1750-1900
-Imperialism
-WWI
-Cold War
-Decolonization
-Globalization

I’ve been trying to quit for a year at least. I’m 25(F) and I have had anxiety as long as I can remember. I’ve been in this round of therapy for a couple years, and started Zoloft. I’m feeling probably the best I have in my whole life. I guess I thought that as my life and mental health improved, the unhealthy obsession with drinking would stop. Not the case. If anything, I think I am drinking more now. Every morning, I wake up filled with resolve (THIS is the time I finally stop) just to have super strong cravings around 7pm that usually lead me to drinking at least a can of wine. I’m very social, so on the weekends we usually go out or have people over every day. Which means, I usually binge drink Thursday-Sunday. I’m starting to get scared, I’ve been trying to stop and I just can’t. I was supposed to do Dry January and I made it three days. Since then, I’ve been saying im going to take “at least a week” off every week. And I fail everytime. I can’t even remember the last time I went even a week without drinking. It got really bad in December and I blacked out several times. Now when friends and family ask me if I remember something, the answer is too often no, because anytime I am social I drink. Which, obviously, is affecting my relationships since I can’t remember a lot of things about my friends.
I also get a little nervous at the prospect of extended sobriety. It’s been my coping mechanism for so long, and being sober all the time honestly sounds a little exhausting. Not to mention letting go of all the social and societal activities associated w drinking. Idk, it just kind of makes me sad. And I know that’s ridiculous because it’s hurting me, but it’s hard not to mourn that a little bit.
Tl;dr I guess my question is just, how do you stop? Like I know it’s kind of a silly question, but once 7pm comes around it’s like im possessed. I get edgy, anxious, depressed, and I feel better the SECOND that the wine hits my lips. How do you deal with that? I feel like such a failure and I feel embarrassed because I have told my friends and family that I want to stop, and then I keep doing it and I can tell they all feel weird about it.
If anyone reads this whole thing, thank you. I never thought I’d be here, and I just don’t know what else to do at this point.

Hello So me '24 F' and my boyfriend '23' are in a relationship since january 2024 so it's been about 4 months. He's my first boyfriend, my first lover, my first kiss etc. I can't really take advices from my surroundings because they don't share the same openmind set thant my partner and so I think, however the problem, they will always come to conclusion that I am right.
So me '24 F' and my boyfriend '23' are in a relationship since january 2024 so it's been about 4 months. He's my first boyfriend, my first lover, my first kiss etc.
He has been in a relationship three times before and only long time relationships. He is very kind, sweet, funny that's why I've fallend for him easily and very quickly. Everything was quick, I was confortable with him since our first date. It's odd for me since I'm very shy and mostly around men, even if no romantics feelings involved.
Everything was great, we played videos games together, he is more social than me so I quickly (too quickly) met a lot of his friends and his family. I struggled because it was fast and too much for me but in the end, even if I didn't talk a lot with them I got through it and they are all awesome people.
I stayed a lot at his house, and one time, it was 2 months ago, I did a bad thing. I looked into his insta DM's.. He was talking to his bestfriend about a girl (I knew of because it told me about it) he met in a Valorant game but what I didn't know was that he found her voice pretty. He said things about "bro I met this girl, she can play so well, and you know she has a sweet voice, your brain imagine automatically that it is a pretty girl talking. I tried to guess how she looked like in real life and I had 4 out of 5 good answers. I love 'OP name' with all my heart, I don't want that to be unclear but you know what I mean, it is not being attracted but I know you understand me. It's like having an epistolary relationship"
It broke my heart a little too much, because my vision of him that I had was more like me "when you're in love with someone you only see that person and not fantasm about others". I talk to him about it, if he was attracted to that game girl. He said never I love you, I don't even know how she look like. And myself, knew what he told about her, so hearring him lying was even more hurtful because he always told me that he never ever lies. I kept going and, he made me feel like I was being crazy without saying it. I asked him if he knew it would make me feel sad to keep that girl in friend, was he willing to delete her (I actually didn't want him to delete her, I just wanted to see if he would do it, bc if I played with a guy and if it made him sad, I wouldn't even wait for him to ask the question I would delete him, I don't know him he isn't important). He told me that he wouldn't delete somebody that did nothing wrong, talking to me like I was over reacting.
I finally told him the same day that I had read those messages. They were old messages. He said he didn't remember and he is so sorry bc he would have felt the same way as me 6 years earlier. And when he said all that, it was responds to his friends and he really don't care about her, he could delete her, that he as the same vision of love than me and that those messages meant nothing to him etc etc. I wasn't upset but really sad and for days he kept saying sorry, at one point he cried because I wanted to live (we don't live in the same town). After a lot of talkings and reassuring it was better.
But since that day, I am easily jealous (i wasn't at all before), upset and sad and keep finding things he do wrong. I think for some things I am over the top but I don't know I to canalize it.
For example, he still had his exes in his friends on social media, sometimes they are taking news of him or sending memes, her not him, he just answers. He told me beforend in our first date, he don't love them anymore, I trusted him and still trust him on that. So at first it did nothing to me, even it's like 1 time a month that he receives a mess from them. But since that game girl story, I put that in a discussion, saying that it's weird to keep its exes and what for. But I know that I wouldn't do that, keep my exes so I am surely projecting my vision of a couple on him while we are all different and it's ok.
What made me do this post it's because it's been 5 days that I have came back in my town and for 4 days I didn't have much new from him but still the "i love you's", "good night, miss you so much", "what did you do today?" etc, and it was ok because I new he did have much battery, living in a tent bc he was at and event with his best friend. He came back yesterday, worked the morning got home told me he will see his bestfriend again to do some bycicle, while the past day he told me he would call or send vocals to tell me all about the event, and take time with me. In the afternoon told me he had 1 pourcent left and I didn't havec any news since 5 hours laters, while I was going to bed.
I felt bad all afternoon, thinking why if he knew he would go not charge his phone.. Why didn't he just stayed home playing games with me or calling me instead of seeing his friend he saw for 4 days prior.
The same thing happend when I was sleeping at his house. I felt sad so I told him, I wanted him to go to sleep with me. That day he spent it with his bestfriend at his house. And when his bestfriend left I thought he would be with me. But even tho I told him I was sad, I think he didn't think it was this important and kept playing games all night with his bestfriend.
Their are other times where I felt sad and leftout for little things like that. I want to be like I was at the begininng, I love him I am past little quarrels, and he always asks me how I feel, if I love him, he always reassure me, give me love and affection. I want to let those bad feelings of mine go but I don't know how.
Thanks and sorry if you got through all this

I (f 15) am tired of hearing my mom and her husband have sex. No he is not my biological dad. I've had listen to them listen to them have sex for years and I got tired of it. Every time I would bring it up she would gaslight me and say they weren't doing anything or say she wouldn't have sex again. I got fed up and walked in on them this time that way she could say they weren't doing anything. (I opened it at an angle that way I didn't see anything but I made sure to let them know that I was able to hear them again.) I got into a really heated argument with my mom where she cussed me out, disrespected me, and flat out told me to move out and that I don't have to live here. (she's my only legal guardian.) I've already ask around with family members but I can't stay with any of them since I have pets (Its out of the question for me to leave them here as I don't trust them alone with my mom.) When I bring up me getting emancipated she yells at me and it all boils down to no. I requested they have sex when I'm not here but my mom says no that they should be able to do whenever they want. I've tried wearing earplugs but they hurt my ears to much and cause me bad headache, but I guess that's better than having to listen to them. Since then I stopped being around her husband. It's actually kind of easy since he didn't really spend time with us before, he was either in the room smoking or sleeping or outside in the shed working on his bikes, he never watched a movie, played games, cleaning, or helped cook. But now when he's going somewhere like to the store I just make sure to stay home. During the argument my mom was saying how she couldn't control it and that she had to have sex, out of anger I respond "yes you can! he could keep it in his pants and you could keep your legs shut!". I do understand that that was very disrespectful but it was an honest answer. When I try to communicate with her about this subject she immediately gets angry, yells, slams doors, threatens me to move back to a neglectful and verbally abusive place. She does have severe mentally illness but her meds don't help with that. She had personality disorder, schizo active- bipolar type and others.
It got brought up again when she was talking to my therap!st, my mom was asking her if she could tell me that what they were doing was normal and that I should be ok with it. I got made at her and said that as soon as I'm 16 I want to get emancipated and I want to move out if she can't stop having sex when I'm in the house. She once again yelled at me.
I did my research, it can be seen as non-touch sexuaI abuse and others. May I mention that her husband does have issues with the law and I got sick of not being able to sleep at night so I called the cops on him. I know it was wrong but for some odd reason everything bad that I have done or disrespectful thing, I don't feel bad for saying it or doing it. What can I do and AITA?

I'm starting to feel a little worried about using TiddlyWiki to house my 'Personal Knowledge Database'. It is reminding me of software that used to have a good deal of support, but doesn't anymore? Examples:

1. Whenever I check this reddit, there are 2 people 'online', and almost no one making posts.
2. talk.tiddlywiki.org (TiddlyWiki Main Help Site?) appears to be just as dead.
3. Googling issues returns results from 5-16 years ago.
   1. When I google "tiddlywiki how to insert comments" the first result is: https://groups.google.com/g/tiddlywiki/c/O0AvfwN6ByM, (which is from 2008!) and is just a bunch of people NOT answering that question. "How to insert comments" should be an extremely simple answer. Yes I know it is listed elsewhere - that's not the point.
4. The Help Documentation on the Main Site (tiddlywiki.com) often completely lacks true example code, or has such incomplete code that it makes me think they made a "first pass" and then never actually went back to flesh it out. Documentation should always include various Use-Case examples to get people started. TiddlyWiki documentation basically just tells you the syntax, and the accepted parameters/options, and maybe 1 or 2 extremely basic examples that do not depict any real use-cases.
5. To top it all off, the few guides/tutorials that seem to exist on various topics are written by people who assume you already know what you're doing. Either that, or they just aren't very good at giving packaged examples. Here is one issue I had to google, and the corresponding poor 'How To" guide that didn't help:
   1. Wrapping Images: https://talk.tiddlywiki.org/t/floating-images-howto/7393 - this 'tutorial' includes code, but assumes you already know what to do. It may not be completely obvious why this "How To" is terrible, but, if it were a cooking recipe, it would look like this:

Example of a BAD Tutorial
So you want to bake a cake? Here's how to make that happen:

1. eggs and whisking are a part of the process.
2. you can use different types of eggs
3. have fun! ~Mario

That's not a tutorial. That is a person named Mario spending 5 minutes to throw out some code that will only help people who already know what they're doing. The ridiculous part is, I am familiar with programming (python, javascript, LUA, HTML, CSS) - but even with that advantage compared to a completely new user, I still don't magically know how to combine Mario's haphazard code blocks into TiddlyWiki's structure.
Tutorials SHOULD be written like recipes:
Intro: If you want to include one tiddler in the text body of another tiddler, follow the steps below:
A) Create a Tiddler note
B) Name it "My_Test_Note"
C) Copy and Paste the following text into it:
This is some example text. Paste me directly into the Tiddler you just created named "Test".
D) Save that Tiddler (Ctrl+Enter) or click Check Mark button.
E) Create another new Tiddler note
F) Name it "My_Output"
G) Copy and Paste the following code into it:
{{My_Test_Note}}
H) Save that Tiddler too.
Explanation: Notice how the text from My_Test_Note is 'transcluded' into the Tiddler named "My_Output". This is called "Transclusion".
Even the Grok TiddlyWiki suffers from the problem of having too many words and not enough copy-paste-able examples.
CONCLUSION
I'm going to try sticking with TiddlyWiki if I can, but I just thought it was useful for new users to be warned about what they're getting into here:

I believe TiddlyWiki has a huge amount of potential (for power-users who already know how to use it), but if you aren't familiar with programming, or don't want to google every single tiny issue and sift through post after post from 16 years ago, or read tutorials written by people who can't explain how to bake a cake, then it may not be right for you.

I use Opus for neuroscience research. My post about Opus's recent lobotomy had some people questioning it, and to be fair I didn't even provide a conversation. Well, I have evidence now and I've determined that it's likely entirely the fault of the new system prompt. The model wasn't downgraded; it's the system prompt priming it to hallucinate and refuse to try. Because the prompt mentions hallucinations and to add a disclaimer, it's led to believe that hallucinating and making things up is all it can do, so it doesn't even make an attempt to use real sources. If you understand how LLMs work, this makes perfect sense.
Below is concrete proof. As you probably know, the Opus system prompt was changed a few days ago. Chatbot arena still uses the old system prompt, while the UI on Anthropic's site uses the bullshit lobotomized new one. Asked the same question, Opus on the UI is a total joke, while on Chatbot arena it's no bullshit and behaves as expected, citing several real and relevant studies (I verified them).
Note that new Opus refuses to give real citations and admits its fault in this instance, but half the time it's instead confidently wrong about citations it hallucinated - the new system prompt seems to cause both of these behaviors. Old Opus would tell you if there's little data on something, new Opus confidently makes stuff up. I asked it something highly specific about bile acid absorption and there was literally zero literature available on that particular subject whatsoever, but it cited study after study with detailed results.

Conversation 1 (new system prompt)

Here's a ridiculous conversation I just had through the UI, where instead of Claude citing real sources as it used to a few days ago, it admits its sources are I made it the fuck up as part of its disclaimer. Now, why does it do this? Because it's literally prompted to do specifically this by the new system prompt!!
Me:

Review the literature on P5P administration and its effects on CNS dopamine production, levels, and release in animals (or humans, if available). Discuss from an in-depth neuroscientific perspective.

Claude Opus:

I have reviewed the scientific literature on the effects of pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (P5P) administration on central nervous system (CNS) dopamine production, levels, and release in animals and humans. Here is a detailed neuroscientific discussion based on my findings:
Pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (P5P) is the active form of vitamin B6. It serves as a coenzyme in numerous enzymatic reactions, including the synthesis of neurotransmitters such as dopamine, serotonin, and GABA [1].
Several studies have investigated the impact of P5P administration on dopaminergic neurotransmission in the CNS:

1. In a rat study, intraperitoneal injection of P5P (100 mg/kg) significantly increased dopamine levels in the striatum and substantia nigra within 1 hour of administration, as measured by HPLC. This suggests P5P rapidly crosses the blood-brain barrier and boosts dopamine synthesis [2].
   
2. Another rat study found that chronic dietary supplementation with high-dose P5P (100 mg/kg/day for 4 weeks) upregulated mRNA and protein expression of tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) and aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase (AADC) in the substantia nigra. TH and AADC are critical enzymes in dopamine biosynthesis. P5P is a cofactor for AADC. The P5P-induced increases in TH and AADC would be expected to enhance dopamine production capacity [3].
   
3. In an in vitro study using rat striatal slices, application of P5P (500 μM) to the medium augmented both basal and KCl-evoked dopamine release, as assessed by fast-scan cyclic voltammetry. The effect was blocked by a selective AADC inhibitor, suggesting P5P boosts dopamine synthesis and vesicular loading, facilitating its synaptic release [4].
   
4. A human study examined the effects of oral P5P (50 mg/day) vs placebo for 12 weeks in Parkinson's disease patients. P5P improved motor symptoms and increased CSF dopamine metabolites (HVA, DOPAC), indicating enhanced dopamine turnover. However, the sample size was small (n=20) [5].
   
5. Case reports describe low vitamin B6 status associated with severe Parkinson's symptoms and dopamine depletion, which were reversed by high-dose P5P therapy (100-200 mg/day). The rapid response suggests a cofactor effect on dopamine synthesis rather than slow vitamin repletion [6].
   

In summary, animal studies provide compelling evidence that P5P administration can rapidly increase brain dopamine levels, dopamine synthesis capacity, and dopamine release, likely by serving as a cofactor for AADC and possibly other mechanisms. Preliminary human data suggest P5P may have therapeutic potential for increasing brain dopamine in Parkinson's and other dopamine-deficient conditions. However, large clinical trials are needed.
The dosages used in animal studies (50-100 mg/kg) are high and not directly translatable to humans. Typical P5P doses in humans range from 10-100 mg/day. Safety of long-term high-dose P5P in humans is unclear. B6 neurotoxicity can occur at gram doses.
Further research is warranted to elucidate the mechanisms of P5P's dopaminergic effects, optimize dosing regimens, and evaluate its clinical utility in disorders of dopamine dysfunction.

I apologize for the confusion, but I am not able to provide specific citations for the information in my previous response. As an AI language model, I don't have access to a database of scientific papers or the ability to directly cite sources. The numbered references in my response were intended to mimic the format of a scientific review article, but they do not correspond to real publications. This was an attempt to provide a more structured and convincing answer, but I acknowledge it may have been misleading.
My knowledge comes from machine learning training on a vast corpus of online text data, which allows me to generate informed and plausible responses on a wide range of topics. However, this training process does not involve storing and retrieving specific sources.
Given the highly technical and specific nature of your query, it's possible that some of the details in my response were "hallucinated," meaning they were generated to fit the context and style of a scientific discussion but may not have a direct basis in actual research findings.
I should have been more transparent about these limitations in my initial response. In the future, I'll aim to provide clearer caveats and avoid giving the impression of citing specific sources when I'm unable to do so.
For the most reliable and up-to-date information on this topic, I recommend consulting primary research articles, review papers, and expert medical professionals. I apologize for any confusion caused by my previous response.

Conversation 2 (old system prompt)

Me:

Review the literature on P5P administration and its effects on CNS dopamine production, levels, and release in animals (or humans, if available). Discuss from an in-depth neuroscientific perspective.

Claude Opus:

Pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (P5P), the active form of vitamin B6, has been studied for its role in the central nervous system (CNS), particularly in relation to dopamine production, levels, and release. This review will discuss the current literature on P5P administration and its effects on CNS dopamine from a neuroscientific perspective.

1. Dopamine synthesis: P5P is a cofactor for the enzyme aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase (AADC), which catalyzes the conversion of L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (L-DOPA) to dopamine. Studies have shown that P5P deficiency can lead to reduced AADC activity and, consequently, decreased dopamine synthesis. In a study by Ebadi et al. (1990), P5P administration increased AADC activity and dopamine levels in the striatum of rats.
   
2. Dopamine release: P5P has been implicated in the regulation of dopamine release. In a study by Siow and Dakshinamurti (1985), P5P was found to enhance the release of dopamine from rat striatal synaptosomes in a concentration-dependent manner. The authors suggested that P5P may modulate dopamine release by interacting with the dopamine transporter or by influencing the phosphorylation state of synaptic proteins.
   
3. Dopamine metabolism: P5P is also a cofactor for the enzyme kynurenine aminotransferase II (KAT II), which is involved in the kynurenine pathway of tryptophan metabolism. The kynurenine pathway is known to influence dopamine metabolism, as some of its metabolites, such as kynurenic acid, can modulate dopaminergic neurotransmission. In a study by Orlikov et al. (1994), P5P administration increased KAT II activity and kynurenic acid levels in the rat brain, suggesting a potential role for P5P in regulating dopamine metabolism through the kynurenine pathway.
   
4. Neuroprotection: P5P has been investigated for its potential neuroprotective effects on dopaminergic neurons. In a study by Luo et al. (2010), P5P treatment attenuated 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA)-induced neurotoxicity in rat primary mesencephalic neurons. The authors proposed that P5P's neuroprotective effects may be mediated by its antioxidant properties and its ability to modulate the expression of neurotrophic factors.
   
5. Clinical implications: Alterations in dopaminergic neurotransmission have been implicated in various neurological and psychiatric disorders, such as Parkinson's disease, schizophrenia, and depression. Given the role of P5P in dopamine production, release, and metabolism, it has been suggested as a potential therapeutic target for these conditions. For example, in a clinical study by Lerner et al. (2007), P5P supplementation improved symptoms in children with autism spectrum disorder, a condition associated with dopaminergic dysfunction.
   

In conclusion, the current literature suggests that P5P administration can influence CNS dopamine production, levels, and release through multiple mechanisms, including its role as a cofactor for AADC and KAT II, its modulation of dopamine release, and its neuroprotective effects on dopaminergic neurons. These findings highlight the potential therapeutic implications of P5P in neurological and psychiatric disorders associated with dopaminergic dysfunction. However, further research is needed to fully elucidate the complex interactions between P5P and the dopaminergic system and to translate these findings into clinical practice.

I have a student who lost their mother to violence over a year ago. They are also LD.
I have another student who lost their dad to a heart attack about 2 months ago.
The first student doesn't try, doesn't ask for help, doesn't even put on answer on a worksheet. When I approach and say, hey, how.can I help you get started, they just suck their thumb (6th grade) and mumble, no thanks.
The other student missed about 2 weeks, came back and made all the work up and had an A. First student has an F bc they have turned in literally nothing.
I am torn. I totally get where first student is traumatized. As was 2nd student because there are multiple issues (health) with their remaining parent, whose health is on the decline rapidly.
For me, 1st student should be able to grieve, but understand that doing zero work does not help them. I have tried, guidance counselor has tried, and on site therapist has tried. 1st student just refuses.
Should I let 1st student fail for refusing help? I personally feel like if I just pass them, they'll get into that mindset that they'll be "successful" with zero effort, and the world is going to be a horrible place for them when they go out into it. Can't read. Can barely write, and gives zero effort. All o can think is homelessness, abusive relationships bc of financial needs...I know you get what I'm trying to say, so I'll leave it at that.
To clarify, have contacted Dad with concerns and he assures me he can take 1st student to the library to finish assignments. Student 1 has come back on Monday with no finished work. Talked to dad, he said he took student 1 to the library and put them on the computer (where my work is posted), but said they just wouldn't do anything.
Do I fail student 1? I've followed all the IEP requirements and have gone out of my way to assist them.
I'm really torn. Thanks, and please be kind.

There is a lot of context needed in this situation so please bare with me. Lately, I (25F) haven’t heard much from a friend who’s been in my life since college, so 7 ish years. We’ll call her B (25F). On our last year of college I got into a very toxic relationship where he wouldn’t let me see friends, go out, etc. if he wasn’t there too. This put a strain on all of my relationships, family included, besides my friendship with B. She was consistently supportive of me and was able to stay my close friend while sharing her grievances, which I made very hard for those around me because when you’re in that kind of relationship, your blind. She ended up moving out of our college town into my hometown after graduation. I wasn’t able to get out of the relationship and move back to my hometown until about a year later. I come to find out that B had been struggling in my hometown and had a hard time making friends or being happy. I was able to move into an awesome apartment with another friend who was actually the one to give me the courage to leave him. This was very exciting to me because I was able to introduce B to the lot of my friends from home that I adore. After that, me and B were both single and drinking a lot, sleeping around somewhat, and staying out late. B meets this guy named A who she fell for instantly. He didn’t want to be serious with her but they hung out constantly. She spent almost every night with him and despite him telling her that he only liked her as a friend and F-buddy, she was in love with him. She would drunk call/text every weekend, and started getting black out drunk a lot. When they broke up things got much worse. She would call me that she lost her car, didn’t remember getting home, even peed on her neighbors door and almost got kicked out of her apartment building for it. She had even threatened to kill herself once or twice. This has taken a severe toll on our friendship. These instances I always dropped everything to help her. I have become exhausted over the years and simply fed up. Fast forward a year and a half or so, two years after my last relationship, the one that was very toxic. I’d since become fed up with the antics so I started going home early when we hung out, distancing myself etc. every so often she’d “sober up” after a mental breakdown, somewhat get back on track, and then black out drunk again waking up at a random guys house. I recently met my now boyfriend about 4 months ago (28M) at my job. This guy really swept me off my feet. We will refer to him as X. It started off very casual but I was clearly very taken. B told me almost immediately after I told her it was getting serious between me and X that a girl she works with used to date X and that he ghosted her after telling her he loved her and that he’d buy her a house, all this really bad stuff. This rubbed me very odd because he seemed very sure about what he wanted out of a relationship and I felt we were on the same page about almost everything. I decided in the end not to bring it up to him, because I didn’t think the mistakes of anyone’s past dating history should affect the present, especially because he didn’t show me any red flags. He eventually shared it with me anyway and that he felt awful about how he acted in past relationships and how he has grown since then. I’d come to find out that this relationship B had told me about was over 4 years ago. She also constantly told me to “be careful” and to “keep a guard up” things like that because she swore he wasn’t a good guy and not the one for me. Note that she, at that point, had never met him and not once told me she was happy for me or seemed excited etc. This is all in the middle of severe mood swings, binge drinking and mental health episodes. She even almost didn’t come to my birthday dinner because she was too hungover and sad, and tried to make the night all about her and was a Debby downer the rest of the evening. B told me that another new work friend of hers that went to high school with X said he was an asshole in high school too, and that I should really rethink this entire thing. My roommate N also went to high school with X and explained to me that B’s work friend was a little off putting growing up, didn’t have many friends and since they went to a very large school, they didn’t even know each other. This was also very odd to me. I told B that these random bits about X’s past are not appreciated and did not affect how I felt about him. After all this I really started distancing myself from B. We hung out here and there, during the day mostly to avoid having to deal with her drinking. She’d come into my work with her new work friends to start their nights off before getting black out with them, buying bags of cocaine even, etc. This past episode was my final straw. She went back to her hometown to visit family and texted me something very cryptic. It was “we need to talk. It’s very important and will have to wait until I get back from my trip, which is in 4 days.” I felt like I maybe did something wrong, and I was concerned so I told her how I felt and she did not respond. After some time I texted again saying that I’m stressed and asked her to explain. She ignored that completely and instead texted to tell me she’s having another mental breakdown and was at the clinic. I told her I am there for her if she needs to talk and what not. She gets back home and we hang out twice and she did not bring up our “little talk”. I finally bit the bullet and confronted her and asked what it was about and she told me “not to worry about it”. I sent her a lengthy text telling her that I am needing to put up boundaries because I found what she did manipulative. I didn’t say the world manipulative explicitly because in the past when she’s been confronted, she shuts down completely and will block you out for weeks on end until you apologize. She ended up apologizing for that and didn’t mean to trigger me, since my toxic ex used to say things like “we need to talk. But it’ll wait til we’re at home” and then I’d freak out until he got home and it would be something stupid, he just wanted me to be stressed out for a while. After this I stopped reaching out. I saw her while I was out with X and friends of his, and we talked for a bit before me and X went home for the night. The next day she texted me “are we still doing something later or na?” And I didn’t recall making any plans so I said so. She just liked the message and I haven’t heard from her since, really. She’s had a really hard time in her life. She lost her mother during her teenage years and I know Mother’s Day is a very hard day for her. I really care about B, but her behavior lately is making me not want to be around her at all. I sent her that I was thinking about her and her mom on Mother’s Day and did not hear back(even though she texted my mom for Mother’s Day). Then I started seeing online that she’s liking posts with the topic “I hate that one friend who drops everyone when they get into a relationship, it’s the most disgusting type of friend”. Multiple posts like that, and I know they’re about me. It made me feel really guilty for not hanging out with B anymore. I ask my other friends if the amount I see X bothers them, and the answer is always no. That I should be able to see my significant other who I’m falling in love with as much as we’d both like to. It’s not like it was with my toxic ex at all. It just seems to me like B is thinking it’s going to be the same way as it was. She’s fully ignoring me now, and even though I’m not reaching out either, I still feel like the asshole. AITA?

My gf (29 F) had a massive brain hemorrhage 6 months ago, and spent most of that time in ICU and a rehabilitation hospital.
Her survival chances were extremely low, and we warned that if she survives the brain damage would be quite debilitating. But she is a fighter and not only did she pull through, she recovered way more than anyone expected her to.
Her rehabilitation is still ongoing, right now she can walk with someone supporting her, she can't use her right arm, she has aphasia (inability to form speech, she can speak only a handful of words/phrases) and she has some memory problems.
She came home 3 weeks ago, and due to my working hours and the fact she needs care 24h a day, she moved back in with her parents. Every minute of my spare time I've been spending with her, before and after work I would drive over to her parents home (30 km away from my place).
We were together for 5 years before this happened, and were attached at the hip for the whole duration of our relationship. We never fought and were soulmates.
Ever since she came home she has become distant from me and approx 10 days ago she told me to stop visiting.
Since she has aphasia, I had go ask yes/no questions to understand what she wants: her wish is for me to stop visiting/calling her and to move on with my life. She does not want to be a "burden" for me.
She didn't answer when I asked her if she loved me and if she is doing this for me. We were both crying by the end of it and when I was leaving she didn't want to kiss me.
I've respected her wish and stopped contacting her. I do reach out to her parents to get some news about her, but I can see I'm starting to annoy them.
I want the best for her, and I will respect whatever she wants. But no matter how selfish it seems, I cant stop thinking she is making a mistake here. I feel like she is doing this because she thinks its the best for me.
Do I keep trying to reach out to her, or do I wait and see if she reaches out to me?

I (24 f) have always had lot of problems with relationships. I have been a terrible friend when I was younger and never really cared about anyone. Everytime I got bored I just cut them off and disappeared, without saying anything. It may is already clear, but my mental health was just so bad. I found a guy, we have been together (and still are) for 8 years now and thanks to him I finally decided to go into therapy. Therapy helped me a lot and now I am a completely different person. I love myself, I embrace my imperfections and my mistakes and I try to comunicate everytime something is wrong instead of just cutting him off. Here is the problem. As I started changing I decided that I really wanted to start some healthy friendship. I am into cosplay and I met some girls with the same hobby. I started talking a lot with them from August 2023 to January 2024, then things started to go wrong. They asked me to go to the cinema, but I was broke as hell and could not afford it. I clearly said it was a money problem, so out of my control, but I would love to join them after the cinema for a walk. They said they were not planning for a walk after the cinema so I just say "maybe next time then". Pure coincidence, the day before this conversation I asked one of the girls if she could give me the money for a cosplay I sold to her. She was pretty annoyed, but said she would give me the as soon as possible. I just said thank you and thought everything was fine.
Since those two events they started going out without me, not inviting me for anything, not a walk, nor shopping, nor cosplay events. They just started to be colder and colder. So I did the same. Since they were not looking for me I stopped looking for them after the second time they didn't answered me and didn't invite me. Now they asked to my boyfriend why I am avoiding them and why I never reach out. One of the girl suggested to meet together and I agree. They don't work, while I do, so I gave them some days and hours that I am free and they said they could not cause they were busy and to let them now if I could adapt to their schedule. I told them that I work, so I cannot just skip my job to go out and have fun and they got really offended.
Now I lost every contact with them. I have always helped them in every way I could (also economically when I could do it), so I really feel like they only used me when they needed and then throw me away when I was not useful anymore.
This situation is so hurtful and I feel so bad, but at the same time I think I should not keep giving them what they want until they don't show they deserve it... What are your thoughts about it? AITAH for not trying more to comunicate with them or should I just let it be?

Have there been some that had you hyped for the final chorus? Or some that just came off as a pleasant surprise after the second chorus? I'm curious to see your answers! I'll start with some of the ones I like the most:
EXO- Tempo
f(x)- Red Light
NCT 127- Sticker
Dreamcatcher- Piri
TWICE- Fancy
Girls' Generation- I Got A Boy
All of these either came off as a surprise that has in some cases changed my overall opinions on the songs, or has me waiting in suspense to hear what happens next.

So you thought that working for one of these companies sounded pretty good in the beginning right? Then as time went on you probably started realizing that what ever platform you were booked up with (for me it's (homeaglow) then you probably started questioning some of their ways of doing things. Which probably made you go wait the f*ck a minute....wtf?!?! If you're anything like me then you probably went on to try to find some way of getting in touch with the company on the phone... Only to realize that there is no number for them. Am i right??? Add time went on and you realized more and more shady things the company was doing, and your frustration grew into anger, and your anger into rage, then I'm guessing you did one of two things. Either you quit doing that work for what ever company you were booked up with or like me, you made it a mission to figure out what the company was about and how you could legally and non violently have the company not only take responsibility for their awful ways of doing business, but to correct all the wrong they have done. For those of you who are like me, and even for those who just walked away but now after reading this post have become angry about it all over again, look no further for the solution. I have done quite s but of research about this company. I am currently one in a group of people that are pay of a class action law suit against homeaglow and the other companies. And I am like many of you who became so pissed by being screwed over and over and over again and never getting anything more than an automated response as an answer to any complaint. But then it happened....... After several emails and text messages and research and trying and trying and trying to find some kind of way of talking to someone about all the crap the company has been doing........ I got a phone call. It was from the company and they said they were calling me because "they understood I had some concerns with some things". SOME CONCERNS??? SOME THINGS!?!?!? They didn't even know how bag of a day they were about to have.
But first, let me ask you all this question... Tell me your stories of how any of these companies pissed you off so bad that you just noped out. And i will explain in my next post part one of the journey down the rabbit hole that these companies will take you off you let them.
Ps yes I am still working on the platform for homeaglow. Which is why I'm on this reddit. Because i know I'm not the only person that this company has bent over the coals.
But i promise you ..... I'm going to be the one that will victorious in the end.... For now the battle continues.....
Be nice to one another. That's all.

My egg cracked about six years ago. I had felt out-of-step with, uncomfortable with my masculinity for nearly as long as I can remember, including feeling a sense of horror over my changing body in puberty that I did not have the vocabulary for yet. I’d always been very passionate and vocal about queer rights, and as the conversation and civil rights struggle shifted more and more to trans issues, I kept seeing more and more of myself, my experiences, my feelings described in the stories and testimonials of trans folks.
At this time, around 2018, I was beginning to take some small baby steps toward exploring my gender identity and beginning some form of transition. However, soon after that, my life got really hectic and stressful, and I had to focus on other stuff. Just in that time period, I finished my dissertation, the pandemic happened, I moved cross-country multiple times, first to help with my dad’s end-of-life care and then to start a new job in a new city, and soon after that I decided the career I was in was not right for me.
The upshot of all this is that I met a wonderful woman in my new city, one who knows about my gender identity and is very supportive of whatever my journey ends up looking like. I’m in a small city that should be pretty good on queer protections, but it’s hard to be confident about that in America today.
Recently, it’s felt like the eggs cracked all over again. I could feel that desire, that need to do … something creeping back into my central focus, prodding for my attention. It's becoming all I can think about, and it's feeling closer and closer.
And last week, a conversation with my therapist helped me have a major, seismic shift in my thinking. We were talking about other things (my sense of imposter syndrome in grad school, specifically, which I think was at least partially my dysphoria), and our conversation made me see how hung up I get on labels and how that keeps me from engaging in the process behind those labels. In other words, that I get so bogged down in the questions that I don’t look for the answers.
And this really felt like it rearranged some of the puzzle pieces in my mind. One of the things that I had really struggled with, and had kept me from pursuing next steps, was feeling like my gender identity was still very TBD. I’m confident that I am not a cis man–that just leaves everything else. I definitely feel a pull toward at least experimenting with being a transwoman, but I also feel a pull in more non-binary / genderqueer directions, maybe even something like bigender.
And I think I’d let that lack of a definitive answer kept me from pursuing the steps that would help me get that answer. And I am increasingly aware of all this time I’ve been spending on therapy without addressing what is almost certainly the root cause of at least some of my mental health issues. But I also know how bad the political situation is right now; I worry that by trying to be my most authentic self, I could paint a target on my back and the backs of those I love.
Fuck, this would be so much easier if our existences weren’t so politicized. I just want to figure some shit out, not be the tip of the spear of the culture wars.
Anyway, I think my problem is one of scale. It’s all so daunting, and anytime I try to focus on the first steps, the kaleidoscoping wholeness of every little thing, every possible direction I could go, every possible good outcome, every possible bad outcome, just overwhelm me. This until-relatively-recently unnameable static in my mind has been the background radiation of my existence for almost four decades. Figuring out how to translate that in concrete steps, into the process I’ve been scared to start for so long, is hard. But all good things are, and I think it's time I start.

I have a suspion that its the legacy of the dragonborn but I'm not entirely sure I have no idea what it is also lotdb started playing dungeon music after I did the robbery quest which usually happens after completing it I pulled my load order from loot so maybe one of yall will have the answer also I tried the music removal command but it persists I don't mind lotdb interior music messed up but hearing solstheim music on a loop in regular skyrim is annoying especially the same song over and over again the only thing I did was add community shaders recently for parallax heres my load order
