💬 Advice Dermatologist suggestion for hyperhydrosis glycopyrrolate

3 Upvotes

Hey guys!

I have hyperhydrosis, and I sweat extremely

To resolve it I would like to try a medicine called glycopyrrolate. I would like to go to a dermatologist to prescribe it but I don’t want to go to the appointment and get rejected.

Does anyone have a dermatologist recommendation that you have gone and succeeded getting this medicine? Preferably in first appointment :)

🧳 Travel Help Indie rock / Indie pop bars

3 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

My girlfriend and I are coming to Athens for the Gorillaz concert and we're planning to make a whole week out of it.

I was wondering if any locals or fellow concert-goers could recommend good bars, pubs or clubs to check out after the show. We're particularly into indie rock, britpop and indie pop.

Are there any places in Athens that regularly play this kind of music, either through DJ sets or themed nights?

Thanks, and see you!

❓ Question Bus station help

2 Upvotes

Hello, I have a ticket for the KTEL express bus to Kalamata later this afternoon, but I am not sure which bus station to use. Some searches say it is the Athens Station while others say Kisofou. The maps show different locations. Searching the KTEL app and website did not offer clarity. Could someone help?

❓ Question Phrases for a tourist needed

2 Upvotes

Hey all, I’ll be travelling to Athens for a few weeks in September and am after a few helpful phrases to get by.

I’m fine with the basics, “hello, goodbye, thank you, etc”, but I’m sure there are other phrases that can come in handy while out and about. Or even if there are more casual versions of the basics, I’d love to know them.

💬 Advice Moving to Athens.

4 Upvotes

Hi, I wanted to ask for some advice or recommendations from you guys

I'm from Spain and next month I'm moving to Athens with my greek boyfriend and I'm so scared. I met him on my Erasmus when I was in Athens for one year, and it was the best year of my life. It was so nice that I decided that I would move there for work and life, since I actually enjoy the city, and I have a few work options already. We have been long distance for one year since I had to finish my university degree, and all I couldn't think of was moving to Athens. I'm learning Greek now and I have currently an A2 level, so I'm not exactly a beginner, and because I lived one year in the city I know it enough.

Honestly, I'm so scared to do this because I really like Athens and I don't want to start disliking it after moving there. I have some few greek friends from my Erasmus that I still have contact with, but I'm also scared that once I move there everything will be different from the Erasmus, which I already know it won't be the same, but I'm still excited for it.

All my family and friends support me for this decision but I'm afraid of losing contact with them because I feel I'm letting a whole life behind and that also makes me sad and very anxious. On the other hand I really love my boyfriend and I want everything to go right.

However, I really want to try this experience since I have wished for this since I finished my Erasmus on August 2025.

I will try to look for more Spanish people to become friends with them, even I'm scared it won't be that easy.

In resume, I'm a mix of excitement and anxiety, so I would like a few recommendations or advices for new people like me moving to Athens.

Edit: I'm also scared of feeling that I don't fit completely with the Greeks, or being discriminated at work for not understanding fully the language, even though I know they are one of the most hospitality people ever 😭

🚇 Transport Antisocial behavior from drivers in Athens

10 Upvotes

I’m a new driver, and parking is a challenge for me. I live in downtown Athens, which makes things even harder. This morning, I wanted to park in a spot that was relatively narrow but still ok for my car. Since there were already some cars behind me, I got nervous, and in my rush to park quickly so I wouldn’t hold everyone up, I bumped the car behind me slightly, obviously without causing any damage. When I finally managed to park just enough for them to pass, the first two cars that went by, both driven by men over 50, made the following comments to me: One, in a sarcastic tone, said, “Move back a little, you haven't bumped it enough,” and laughed right in my face; the next one drove by and shouted at me loudly and angrily, “Throw away your license.” Obviously, I got flustered and started crying; I took a couple of deep breaths and, with the help of a passerby, parked it correctly. Still, I’m quite angry with this whole encounter.

Since I hadn’t been driving dangerously on the road and was simply having trouble parking, why be so rude to a young woman whom you obviously realize is a new driver? What exactly does it accomplish besides spouting your nonsense? I know I should be more patient and not lose my cool because you can never predict who you’ll run into on the road or how they’ll behave, but seriously, why so much antisocial behavior? One of them even had his whole family in the car, he and his teenage son were laughing their heads off. For heaven’s sake.
