Thanks for sharing the process you went through.
I had/have the same problems with doctors here in the US. Even if they’re good, they just don’t have enough time to work with any individual patient.
The first personal trainer I went to wasn’t that good, but the second was great, and I got in a lot better shape and got comfortable working with machines.
The Peter Attia book and Joe Delaney channel sound interesting, I’ll check those out!
Xfinity is a curse from hell. Over the years I’ve had to help my elderly aunt with various problems with their account. A couple different things that worked:
-
went into an Xfinity store. This helped for simpler account things. People there were generally cool, it was just a job and I think they knew the whole company was a mess, they’d give me tips on how to get to the right place and solve the problem.
-
convinced the AI bot that it was a problem that it couldn’t solve. Then I got a human in the chat, who could actually help.
-
went to the web-based “help bulletin board” (I found this through the account’s panel) and posted the problem there. There were several unhelpful “community expert” responses but eventually someone who worked there guided me to a web-based chat with their first-line tech support, i.e. so I could give account information. It took them half an hour to reply to anything I said. I explained things VERY CAREFULLY repeating everything we’d established so far (I imagined I was talking to an evil genie) and they eventually gave me a phone number to call, and that person could indeed help me.

Really interesting info. I’m also getting older, and in the past couple years I started going to the gym too. How did you figure out all that? Did you talk to a doctor, or a personal trainer, or people at the gym, or what?

Eddie Valiant: Maybe you can go downtown and check the probate.
Roger Rabbit: Yeah, check the probate! Why, my Uncle Thumper had a problem with his probate, and he had to take these big pills and drink lots of water!
Eddie Valiant: Not prostate, you idiot. Probate!
Very interesting… in the early- to mid-90s I had some friends who were really into 2nd wave 2-tone (like Madness, Selecter, Specials, English Beat) and what they taught me involved more knee-kicks, like what this influencer’s doing here: https://youtu.be/IWpUHMow5LM?t=2
Personally I liked the first generation of ska the best, when it blended with rocksteady and early reggae, very soulful stuff.
I mostly stick to non-politics, non-tech communities:
There’s plenty to read each day.
Yes, if it fits your preconceptions.
I bet you have no fear of public speaking.
“We’re no strangers to love…”
I thought ska skins and sharps were overlapping Venn diagrams but not a perfect circle. My knowledge of such is limited to a few years in the 90s tho.
Woah towards the end the guy in red braces is actually doing the original “ska” dance. Compare to: https://youtu.be/j0ZrHMY5Cso?t=36

These are the two most important pieces of advice I’ve seen so far, @iamericandre@lemmy.world
Good luck. Make sure you reach out to irl friends to help you deal with the emotional stress.
