The amount of excitement I had when I discovered this is a thing was WICKED depressing

I explained to my 7 year old today that getting out of bed is a process in the morning that sometimes takes second and sometimes takes minutes. He was skeptical.

My back feels fine. My knees, however, feel like the eternal damnfires of hell. Ibuprofen and magnesium are my best friends.

Funny part is, I'm needing LESS Advil now as I've gotten older.

You feel even older when you realize you can't actually read the label.

Get diagnosed with high blood pressure, some kind of arthritis/inflammation and start walking funny due to your pain, and you'll really be in the old folks club.

The older I get, the more grateful I am that I've had a bad back since high school. I mean, my back does still hurt, but at least it doesn't make me feel older.

I had the same feeling when one of my meds went generic

Okay that's HYPE tho (no I'm not ready for this I'm still in my 20s I swear)
creddittor216@reddit
I was pretty damn excited. I mean, just think of the savings!

I'll never forget this one time I had insurance and albuterol went generic... again... with a family of asthmatics it was like winning the lotto

I prefer them separate, that way I can stagger the drugs. Take the ibuprofen, then the acetaminophen two hours later.

And see I know this logically, but for some reason the existence of this made me excited enough to buy it
Oh my god I'm old enough that low effort marketing works on me
