That is actually very funny.A few Jewish students at Columbia sprayed fart spray at one of the pro Palestinian encampments after the pro Palestinians harassed them

Places like Flint, MI, aside, the tap water is generally fine to drink, although some people still filter it to remove any lingering metallic or chlorine taste. If anything, I'd imagine metals leaching into the water from pipes in old buildings is probably more of a concern in NYC than any problem with the municipal water supply itself. I could see Victoria refusing to drink it becauseDo yanks not drink council pop? Aka, fill a botttle of ur own tap water up before you go out? Or is it full of shite in general like the on fire water place but not as bad.
Also, what would happen if she just stone cold stopped the steroids. Would she have crazy withdrawals of some kind?
You'd think that would really, really sting a narcissist? Which is what a lot of being a certain type of munchy, the type she fits, is all about?She's so fat and steroid swollen she can barely open her eyes.
Quite the departure from the "cute twink" she felt she once was. That's gotta hurt.
I guess that's why she won't change her ancient profile pic to one of her with #moonface.
Absolutely. Taking high doses of prednisone and the like causes your body to stop naturally producing those substances, and when you go off the drugs that natural production doesn't come back right away. If you go cold turkey you risk what they call an Addisonian crisis, which you can google if you want, but the short version is it's very bad. In the best case scenario you will still feel like hammered shit.Also, what would happen if she just stone cold stopped the steroids. Would she have crazy withdrawals of some kind?
I know that trying to understand this kind of crazy is like trying to measure weight in miles but I just cannot conceive why if you're going to munch yourself you do it with corticosteroids of all things. Why turn yourself into a Cushing's disease nightmare with a drug that doesn't even give you a nice high?
Like, if I was a munchie autoandrophile, I'd try to give myself tuberculosis or something so I could try to live out a fantasy of being Val Kilmer in Tombstone. Who the fuck thinks "oh yes, I want to be fat and irritable and feel panicky all the time, and then I want my spine to rot."
It will also make you feel fucking great when you first start taking it. For a week or two you'll be all kinds of euphoric and energetic. It's a wonder drug until the water retention, teenager zits, violent mood swings et cetera kick in. I can see why it has an addictive appeal to the incredibly stupid.Prednisone is a great drug for munchies. Because not only will it give you loads of fun symptoms for pity points, but you'll get rebound effects if you suddenly stop it after long courses so they can say LOOK HOW SICK I GET WITHOUT MY MEDICINE! ITS ALL SO REAL
That’s a real hassle for people with true and honest bipolar disorder. A condition like giant cell arteritis will render you blind if you don’t treat it with massive doses of cortisone, and it’s almost a given that a manic episode will follow for the poor souls with bipolar 1. So after a while they’re not only physically ill, they’re also looking like a bloated hamster, and that hamster invests all its money in crypto coins and jumps into bed with its best friend’s grandpa.It will also make you feel fucking great when you first start taking it.
What's she even on it for initially?It will also make you feel fucking great when you first start taking it. For a week or two you'll be all kinds of euphoric and energetic.

If you have a history of asthma, or go to an urgent care or ED and say you do while you have a convincing cough or wheeze, you can get your hands on prednisone pretty much no questions asked. This is as it should be- for T&H asthmatics, a dose of roids will pretty much make you instantly start feeling better, prevent pneumonia and possibly vent time, ICU, and death. It costs two bucks and the risks from a short taper are minimal. Some will also give it out for sinusitis, which is on less unshakable evidence. If you have a history of nerve problems like sciatica, trigeminal neuralgia, or chronic severe headache disorders, most neuros will have a standing order for Medrol for when you have a flare because again- minimal risks with a short taper, and a lot of pain, disability, and complications dodged.But yeah, why are the Drs handing out this shit for anything other than definite need?
Also, a short course after strong allergic reactions or hives are common, and definitely after anaphylaxis.If you have a history of asthma, or go to an urgent care or ED and say you do while you have a convincing cough or wheeze, you can get your hands on prednisone pretty much no questions asked.
Hmm. I might ask for some.

Someone who is gaming the system could stack a few of these, hopping between health systems that don't record share, conceivably.
She could also just be buying them in bulk from India. Legal and cheap.
Oh yeah they can induce full on psychosis. Notorious for causing irritability, insomnia, and jitters in general.The part that I wonder about is how the steroids affect her mental health. Took some for terrible allergic dermatitis one time and I felt emotionally like absolute shit. Like, not even being on them long enough to get zits or noticable water retention, I DID have insomnia, anxiety, intense frustration over small shit. Couldn't sit still without feeling overwhelmingly antsy.
Gotta wonder if she could maybe slightly less bitchy without the 'roids or if she's just at her normal baseline with this level of anxiety and paranoia.
You can, but you don't want to be regularly doing that for chronic back pain. A steroid burst is great for a known problem with a specific inflamed nerve pathway that has been properly diagnosed and identified. You take it for like a week so you can get back to doing your exercise program properly or start a targeted medication regime (ie carbamazepine for trigeminal neuralgia.) You wouldn't want to take it every day, and it wouldn't keep working wonders for weeks on end the same way. And if the pain is due to overuse or misuse or misalignment or something other than a very specific thing that is very inflamed and needs to be beaten back to a manageable level without blowing out a kidney with megadoses of NSAIDs, it probably won't help much at all.Hmm.

It's a fucking nightmare trying to get treatment for something as nebulous and mysterious as chronic back pain, when you don't want to dedicate your entire life to chasing dept after dept investigating never ending dead leads.
Aye for sure, I reckon just take it once as a boost when things are really bad, when it's at the point where it's a loop of being too fucked to go to the gym and do the hard, constant things that actually help. Once it gets to a certian level of fucked it's kinda locked in .You can, but you don't want to be regularly doing that for chronic back pain.

This xeet should be added to the top of this thread. It pretty much explains everything.Victoria writes the most honest thing she's ever written, the underlying truth behind all her behavior. She doesn't feel like she's loved by someone unless they're wiping her ass and tucking her into bed.

I think the answer is in her twitter handle. She sees other people (be it munchies or someone with an actual illness) talk about how much they hate prednisone, but they have to take it. It’s very tragic but they’re just so sick the consequences are worth it. How the side effects are all sorts of terrible (yet if you think about it, quite convenient for munchies: they’re not fat, it’s the prednisone! They’re not out of shape, it’s the prednisone!) Plus since it’s a drug that’s dangerous to take for long periods of time, it must mean they’re SUPER DUPER sick.I know that trying to understand this kind of crazy is like trying to measure weight in miles but I just cannot conceive why if you're going to munch yourself you do it with corticosteroids of all things.

Oh my God. These insufferable twits. As it happens, due to the nature of my work, I spoke to several of each category just yesterday, and they're fucking annoying. Genuine, dyed-in-the-wool street drug users are manipulative and whiny as fuck. Genuinely suicidal people are mopey, maladjusted, and often kind of pathetic (the one I did a check on was upset that his girlfriend didn't want to work things out after he got arrested for armed robbery).
