Interestingly the reasoning from my doctor for me taking Escitalopram was that it was good for anxiety, so I guess there's at least some anecdotal evidence from doctors about its efficacy...

Well, the app might be currently available in the AppStore but would now be able to move to an AltStore. Plenty of apps I bought in the past have been pulled from macOS AppStore but are available on websites. In the past I even had banks an

I'm pretty sure the author will stop helping BMW if they become too annoying. Bitcoin users can still open issues, as long as they're not bitcoin-specific.

There's several more, which is certainly much more than the author wants. Most of them seem to be trivial coding mistakes unrelated to the library, and contributors even helped on some before closing due to the rule. The users should p

For me it was around the same time Mo3 mentioned they took, maybe a bit more than one year and a half. It's been long, so I don't remember precisely. However I was in a quite sorry state before... I was having several panic attack

Also a happy customer of that one. It worked great for me even with a low dosage and didn’t otherwise negatively impact anything else.

Agree. I think it's kinda easy to find common ground, but everyone should be allowed a voice. With the "shut up, let Brazil destroy forests, we did it too", the only people that seem to be getting a voice are politically-co

Exactly. This is a very weak argument for something that is so damaging as letting the forest be destroyed for what is virtually zero economical gain to the population.

It's considered "3rd world" actually, as much as the term is a bit useless. The term "2nd world" is reserved to former Soviet-aligned countries.

Nah. It’s gonna be either both together or none at all. Like another poster mentioned, when Brazil was growing, deforestation was shrinking. The meme that the Amazon has to be destroyed for the country to grow is quite new. Please stop spre

Brazil is a "grown up" country. We can handle criticism. We don't need people being condescending to us about what others can or can't say to us. Let us brazilians defend ourselves, please? Another reason I'm fine w

Yep. But one way of distributing this across the population is by favouring other sectors rather than strangling them to favour the primary. The number of people working in the agricultural sector has only shrunk and will keep shrinking due

What does it have to do with anything? Import oriented agriculture/livestock is not really serving the local economy or making the country grow. Like other poster said, "Brazil had no trouble to grow in 90s and 2000s while reduci
