I used saxenda, and now mounjaro - I've always struggled with food noise and I don't think many non obese people are aware of how life consuming this is. All I used to do was wake up and wonder what food I was going to have, when

I always thought it was because it's a ratio of how long we've been here, at 10 a year is an eternity, it's 10% of your life - you could do so much during the 6 weeks of summer holiday. At 48 a year is just over 2% of your li

I'm really bad with sound sensitivities, but magnesium helps make them less sharp and painful, great for helping me get to sleep also. It can give me erectile dysfunction though. Another autistic person put me on to magnesium, their re

I was hired as a co-researcher by a local autism research team, and the first thing we did was research what autistic adults would like to see researched, ie what problems have we come across that we feel need investigating. This was the fi

Yes, exactly my thoughts - and they seem to use lower spec hardware leading to a perceivable delay between scanning -> putting on to weighing station -> able to scan next product. Unless this is as designed too, for whatever reason, b

It's absolutely disgusting, and it may also allow a murder to go free (or someone incorrectly jailed for murder if you believe them). Also, strange seeing my hometown mentioned on here!

So I was actually healthier before I cut out peanut m&ms? (My diet is better than it was, but still garbage. I have a mix of fibres that I take daily with psyllium husk, chia seeds, and glucomannan)

Ex and I tried it until we were at a point we could sell, but then things got worse and I moved out after about 3 months. It's really tough when you add conflicting emotions and that feeling of limbo into day to day living - especially

I have quite vicious migraines, and have regular painless aura migraines that feels like I have a huge number of paparazzi behind me with random flashes, wonder if you're experiencing something similar?

I've had this a couple of times - first time was terrifying as I was a young teenager. Second time was quite recently, almost 35 years later. No idea what's caused it at all - sounds like someone has suddenly opened a pressurised

This is interesting, I have adhd and - other than the headache - I like the doziness that a hangover brings, now that I'm almost 50 though they do tend to be multi-day events so I don't drink as much. Some people with CFS/ME
