      The first is a standard warning symbol, telling you to read the warnings.

      The middle looks to imply that it’s harmful to aquatic life; so no flushing, (upside-down fish and a piece of coral)

      Third one seems to be dosage frequency, but saying a symbol isn’t available. (QHS = taken every night)

        At least make sure the thing you post is correct for something like this, as it can be important.

        The first one (exclamation mark) means it is a irritant and the second one means it is hazardous to the environment (not just aquatic)

        I think, that’s not a coral, but rather a dead tree next to a stream…

        The third one is “no GHS symbol”, GHS being the Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals.

        To translate the sibling, the third one is where it would tell you how dangerous the substance is for you. But it’s keeping its secrets.

        Steven Paul Jobs (February 24, 1955 – October 5, 2011) was an American businessman, inventor, and investor best known for co-founding the technology company Apple Inc. Jobs was also the founder of NeXT and chairman and majority shareholder of Pixar. He was a pioneer of the personal computer revolution of the 1970s and 1980s, along with his early business partner and fellow Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak.

        Jobs was born in San Francisco in 1955 and adopted shortly afterwards. He attended Reed College in 1972 before withdrawing that same year. In 1974, he traveled through India, seeking enlightenment before later studying Zen Buddhism. He and Wozniak co-founded Apple in 1976 to further develop and sell Wozniak’s Apple I personal computer. Together, the duo gained fame and wealth a year later with production and sale of the Apple II, one of the first highly successful mass-produced microcomputers.

        Jobs saw the commercial potential of the Xerox Alto in 1979, which was mouse-driven and had a graphical user interface (GUI). This led to the development of the largely unsuccessful Apple Lisa in 1983, followed by the breakthrough Macintosh in 1984, the first mass-produced computer with a GUI. The Macintosh launched the desktop publishing industry in 1985 (for example, the Aldus Pagemaker) with the addition of the Apple LaserWriter, the first laser printer to feature vector graphics and PostScript.

          If you have depression anxiety and find that Prozac (an ssri) doesnt work well, you might consider something that directly works on dopamine - like Buproprion (brand name = wellbutrin, a NDRI, norepinephrine dopamine reuptake inhibitor).

            This is obviously anecdotal, but fuck Wellbutrin. It didn’t help, and it triggered tinnitus, which didn’t go away after I stopped taking it. Still happening 2 years later. I’m one of the lucky 3-6% Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

              Sorry that happened. I get relatively minor tinnitus, but these exercises have helped. Dude’s a chiropractor, but this particular stuff is not chiropractic and is legit. The thing that helps me is the palms on ears and drumming with fingers on the back of your head (like 50% through the video or so)

                Thank you, I’ll give this a shot! I’ve tried the one you suggested in the past and unfortunately it didn’t help much, but I’ve seen it recommended often enough that I believe it’s legit. Some of the others in this video are new to me and I’ll definitely be trying them out.

                It goes up and down (louder and quieter?) for me, and it’s especially strong lately so I’m a little extra salty about it right now. 🫠

            I was a bit of not interested and not educated enough to know what a NDRI was while I was on it but it does make sense for ADHD and Depression symptoms.

            The withdrawal from Wellbutrin was bad. I got brain zaps if I was 1hr late taking it; tapering and cessation was miserable.

              I have gone off a few times over the years and didn’t experience many side effects/withdrawals, but that is definitely not always the case - I’ve heard that it reeeaaally does not work for some people. Ymmv

              Similar to your comment about ADHD, I feel like it helps me with some of my autism symptoms (“low support needs”/aspergers)

              I was on Effexor XR Max Dose, and one day when I realized that it had effectively killed all feelings I stopped cold turkey, zero side effects. My doctor thinks I have a very high drug tolerance, to the point that anything I’m put on nowadays is just started at close to the max dose. I’m on a drug right now that is prescribed at a level that would normally result in death for most people, and he thinks I can go higher if I need to.

              Downside is pain drugs don’t work, at all. He told me they’d need to give me IV pain meds if I really needed any pain suppression.

          I realize this isn’t serious but holy shit Prozac might have saved my life. Well, technically Prizma which is the same stuff. I went through so many unsuccessful depression treatments, Prizma is the only one that seems to be sticking. Sometimes the old stuff is just the best.

          Worth noting that all treatments were in conjunction with psychotherapy, I don’t think pills alone would have helped. And I also tried going without medication at all for a while, it wasn’t good either. Prizma really is the only thing that works for me.

          Edit: apparently the Prizma brand might only be sold in my country, but as I said it’s just a different brand of Prozac.

            You say the old stuff but fluoxetine was released in 1986 and citalopram in 1989 - before that you were boned. A few antidepressants existed and they were even worse than what we have today.

        Maybe they can offer a two for one deal with lobotomy?

        They remove the “problematic” part and install a new, dopamine rich part.

      From Wikipedia on dopamine:

      The brain includes several distinct dopamine pathways, one of which plays a major role in the motivational component of reward-motivated behavior.

      So it is a neurotransmitter but has many different functions as such. But also:

      Outside the central nervous system, dopamine functions primarily as a local paracrine messenger. In blood vessels, it inhibits norepinephrine release and acts as a vasodilator; in the kidneys, it increases sodium excretion and urine output; in the pancreas, it reduces insulin production; in the digestive system, it reduces gastrointestinal motility and protects intestinal mucosa; and in the immune system, it reduces the activity of lymphocytes. With the exception of the blood vessels, dopamine in each of these peripheral systems is synthesized locally and exerts its effects near the cells that release it.

      So dopamine is important for all kinds of cells to function correctly. So just chugging a bunch of dopamine would do all kinds of stuff to your body…

      I might be misremembering, but AFAIK, dopamine can’t cross the blood-brain-barrier, so even where you want to regulate dopamine (and not, e.g. serotonin like more commonly for depression) in the brain, you have to do so via different medication (e.g. amphetamine derivatives for ADHD or dopamine agonists for Parkinson’s).

    I have no idea what that middle warning symbol is trying to convey. Raises undead fish from their graves? Makes you throw fish at your neighbor’s driveway? Will cause flooding across the entire state of Virginia?
