I buy fish amoxicillin to keep on hand in case I get a serious infection. It's the same as the human stuff, and comes in the same capsules. I haven't had to use it often, but it saved me when I caught lyme from a tick once. Way cheaper than going to a doctor, and I like being able to treat my own bacterial infections without needing someone else's permission first.

Atheistniggers literally incite violence on this board and they don't even get banned, mods just delete the thread to try to hide it. Meanwhile, mods will go through a rule-breaking thread to ban you for offending them, then leave the thread up.

Atheistniggers and loxist atheistic communist jews will spam the board with the same handful of extremely lazy, low effort, bait/troll threads and they won't ever be deleted. But if you criticize atheism or judaism or the jews, your thread is wiped and you're banned for "trolling".

I've stitched my own finger before (4 stitches) and butterflied a couple other wounds. I've done minor surgical stuff like cutting out an ingrown toenail before. I use anbesol as a local anesthetic. I've reset dislocated fingers and toes. Most of treating wounds is cleaning them and keeping them clean. Repack bandages with triple antibiotic often. Sterilize tools beforehand by boiling in water for five minutes then alcohol wiping. If something is too serious I don't fuck around I go to the hospital.

I had briefly considered this at one point, but I had just assumed any kit or machine capable of giving a usable prescription would be way out of my price range. ~$100 is barely more than a basic bitch eye exam at Walmart, WTF.

Wow cool resumè bro. All that education and you're patting yourself on the back for installing baby's first HVAC home play kit. It's the hvac version of assembling an Ikea dresser.
If you had gone out, bought the tools, got certified so you could buy refrigerant, and managed to install a regular split system by yourself and it ran great then I would be impressed. The cherry on top is letting yourself get assmad over a comment posted on a Khazakhstani basket weaving forum.

i used to go to the doctor and complain on vague cold symptoms so theyd give me a scrip for antibiotics but instead of taking them id stash them away. supposedly if you store them properly they retain 90% of their effectiveness for 5 years or more. i ended up tossing mine and i dont take them anymore because it seemed like they were wrecking my immune system and i was constantly getting sick. i started taking vitamins and eating better and it made a huge difference, i wasnt sick all the time anymore.

Years ago I went to a computer shop to buy a PCI slot fan for my computer because the video card didn't have a fan. A worker asked me about my system. Told him it was a Dell blah blah blah. Told him what I wanted. He told me since it was a Dell it shouldn't be having issues with cooling and that I should bring it in so they can check on it. Lol no. They wanted $80 to diagnose it. Told him it's summer and I don't run the A/C that much and just wanted extra cooling for my computer. They won't sell the fan to me.

I've done this too because I have one bad sinus infection per year and there's always a doctor or two that simply refuses to believe me and won't prescribe antibiotics within the timeframe where they will make the biggest difference and let me recover without things getting way more miserable.
Seriously fucking obnoxious when they can just see it as a prior issue on my medical records and that I'm just asking for the same thing that worked last time.

The most recent one 2 years ago it took so long to get the antibiotics that I had already addressed, corrected, and recovered from the infection by the time they gave me the prescription. So I ended up keeping it in reserve for future.

They're not outlawing it, they changed the regulations so vets can only sell them as prescription, especially any food related animals like cows and chickens.
The fish stuff is still available, and there seems to be a loophole around them, if they're intended for fish - the fish products aren't tracked or regulated by the FDA. The "good stuff" will be by prescription only.

Therapy

Never ever pay to go to therapy, I say this as someone that's been in therapy for the better part of 10 years. I understand that you're suffering but these people do not want to help you. I have helped myself more in the last year with reading and journaling and self reflection than any therapist could. Many therapists will purposefully obfuscate your concerns, distract you from making real change, and fill you up with medications that could have lifelong effects, all for a quick buck. All the resources are freely available online and you know yourself better than anyone else. You will be much more empowered to make the necessary changes in your life without a therapist.

You can buy all sorts of shit as long as it isn't strictly controlled like drugs/medication. Stuff normoids should have frankly have no business being able to buy, but I disfavor those regulations on principle. In most places you are absolutely not allowed to work on gas fittings without a license, but parts and supplies are available off the shelf at the hardware store. I plumbed and installed my own gas water heater in my RV, fuck the regulators.

I'm going to make a guess that you shared a bathroom and shower.

Pro tip for sharing washroom facilities: Get a disposable pair of those rubber sandals. Shower sandals aren't the most comfortable thing, but it's a lot easier/nicer to just run them through the washing machine as opposed to getting athlete's foot/warts/ringworm/whatever else.

Buy five gallons of purple power or other aggressive cleaner and a sprayer. Blast the shower floor and general area before showering and wear sandels.

It's so easy to sanitize shit there's really no excuse. I cleaned my share of barracks when I had bay orderly and the magic solution to everything is aggressive use of powerful soaps and surfactants. There's no excuse for getting athletes foot from a roomie.

I'm the same. At 8 they told me I needed braces. I went in again at 18 to get the braces and I didn't need them anymore. I've had a few fillings in my time but looking back I probably didn't need them cos I wasn't in any pain at the time. They had to drill a heap because the "cavity" wasn't big enough tk put a filling in. I brush only once a day before bed. Sometimes if I fancy doing a deep clean I'll scrub with bicarb soda. I'm 35 and people compliment my teeth all the time.

All kinds of stuff. I grow opium, I distill my own ethanol for fuel, cleaning, medical, getting wasted etc. Recently I started automating things around the farm using logic gates built out of handmade solenoid switches and rope core memory. Been building batteries and harnessing the power of streams on my property, been converting our fireplaces into steam engines. Down the line I intend to build a submerged arc furnace on the property for silicon purification from furnaced gravel. Phosphorus, I already extract from urine (shout outs to Piss Jug General) and boron should be readily available from seawater, so I should be able to produce n-type and p-type semiconductors from those.
