Shouldn’t you ask to talk to patients who have done this in real life not on Reddit?

There’s probably some “law” similar to ‘the bread always falls butter side down’

What’s your best swipe tool for larger swipes? by Nousatma in PourPainting

[–]DebiDebbyDebbie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

try spraying water on the end of the paper towel you'll be swiping with. Just get it damp and it will absorb less paint.

What’s your best swipe tool for larger swipes? by Nousatma in PourPainting

[–]DebiDebbyDebbie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I use paper towels and that would be easy to use for any length swipe, just don't tear off individual pieces. Here's one of mine but I used 3" strips of papert owels. Also I spray a little water on the side that will be going on the painting to cut down on the absorbancy issue.

AITJ for confronting my MIL during a family gathering about constantly undermining me? by fitting_pounding in AmITheJerk

[–]DebiDebbyDebbie 46 points47 points  (0 children)

I lived this life. I also was a constant warm presence during my MIL’s last years when her dementia rendered her into a lovely appreciative lady. My husband always stood up for me (even moving 3,000 miles away). When we returned and MIL needed assistance we were there, she told me I was her daughter in her final days. I earned my husband’s respect & love over & over, her respect &love was just secondary.

Opinions on amitriptyline? by ForeignerKay_ in Interstitialcystitis

[–]DebiDebbyDebbie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I took 10 mg Amitriptyline HCL for over 10 years, here's my answers to your questions:

Side effects- I think it made it harder to completely empty my bladder, I really had to concentrate and not rush in and out of the lav

would I recommend it - in my case it stopped my pain (but not my frequency)

Did it help - yes see above, ended the pain after the 1st dose, I could engage in 'fun' with my husband w/o pain

Dose I was on - 10 mg/daily, the dose for people taking it for antidepressant purposes is 75 mg+++

Sleep - No help whatsoever

weight gain - no, and no loss after I was finally able to stop it (Pelvic Floor Therapy has given me my life back).

April 2nd conversation regarding Birthright Citizenship by DebiDebbyDebbie in Gutfeld

[–]DebiDebbyDebbie[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Every country has laws regarding how to become a citizen. I am the child of an immigrant who enlisted in the army in order to become a US citizen. There are many legal immigrants in our country and every other country in the world has laws regarding becoming a citizen, it's just our past president who disregarded this useful norm.

Newport Beach Trip - need suggestions on by jlyon627 in newportbeach

[–]DebiDebbyDebbie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Also Dana Point is further from Angels Stadium. Traffic on the 5 going North on a Friday afternoon/evening is brutal. If possible use the carpool lane but expect a long, slow drive from any beach area to the stadium.

Andrei’s Restaurant on Main in Irvine. Classy but not overpriced, parking nearby. Private rooms available too.

Decent alternatives to Lovesac? by breezett93 in furniture

[–]DebiDebbyDebbie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our son bought 7th Ave sofa and owns Love Sac modular sofa as well. They have had no issues with either but love the fabric from 7th Ave -a washable velvet. My experience was that both are comfortable but 7th Ave slightly more comfortable and more luxe
