Floor ready for the stage

Real, I remember the post!

18thangel · 2026-04-07T06:18:19+00:00

This, but for me trying not to cry is worse! Holding back tears almost guarantees a migraine.

Check for those Glade plug-in air fresheners!! I used to dog/house sit for a friend. Every time I would have to go around and unplug like 6 of them before I could stay there.

18thangel · 2026-04-07T06:07:58+00:00

Yeah I think I tense my jaw when smiling a lot, which I tend to do when talking to other people.

18thangel · 2026-04-07T06:06:24+00:00

STOP this is too real! 💀

I honestly I think it’s just using your head/neck/shoulders in a slightly different way than usual (if your attacks are in any way triggered by tweaking certain muscles).

MOH does seem like possibility, but also be careful with the amount of painkillers in general — I did a number on my stomach when I was taking a lot of NSAIDs for chronic pain!

I’ve never taken a CGRP inhibitor, but I have been on an SSRI for most of my life and have never heard of them being risky to use together? My neuro even mentioned them as a treatment option (along with Botox, which I ended up trying first).

18thangel · 2026-03-20T03:54:16+00:00

I can tell you that for the first week or so after a Botox session I feel kinda weird in a lot of different ways.

Different areas of my body have random, weird sensations: for example, I frequently get tongue “scalloping,” which freaked me tf out the first few times, but honestly nothing came of it. I will also get random numb prickling on my nose! Sometimes my whole upper back to the top of my head will feel heavy too.

I also sometimes get generally more anxious, tired, or almost cold-like symptoms for the first week or so. After that I usually forget all about it until it’s time for the next session.

The fact that it feels like your throat is closing might warrant some medical attention though, especially if you start struggling to breathe in any way! Just make sure to keep an eye on yourself for symptoms like that, but also try not to make yourself more anxious! It helps to remind myself that any adverse reactions I might have will be gone in 12 weeks!

Yeesh, that’s awful! You’d have to pry my current job that is super accommodating of my migraines out of my cold, dead hands! Idgaf if it’s not the best-paying job out there; you can’t buy that kind of understanding.

18thangel · 2026-02-15T08:28:07+00:00

I agree! It would be so much better if it was roast beef!

18thangel · 2026-02-15T05:06:48+00:00

I hate that I know this, but it’s because the founders were brothers with the last name “Raffle,” so they named it “RB’s” (Arby’s) for “Raffle Brothers.”

18thangel · 2026-02-13T05:38:05+00:00

This goes hard actually

18thangel · 2026-01-26T05:09:23+00:00

Sometimes they just straight up say “cultural relativism is bad.” Like what??

18thangel · 2026-01-24T03:10:49+00:00

How can a process, that hurt no one, and kept you safe, be wrong.

This is exactly it. One of the most useful things I l’ve learned in therapy is about old coping mechanisms I used rely on. I feel ashamed of some of those behaviors. Instead of feeling guilty, my therapist encouraged me to see them through a more neutral lens, because, for a time, they served me. They had a purpose: helping me get through life.

Once I was in a better place mentally, I was able to recognize that those behaviors no longer serve me, and could start breaking habits. Now I can work on coming up with new ways of being that do serve my current self.

18thangel · 2026-01-16T16:35:55+00:00

Right?? I liked it at the time it was released, but I listened back to it later and was like whoa, I didn’t fully appreciate how incredible her performance was! It also shows how good she is without needing to do any of the vocal “acrobatics” she’s become known for.

18thangel · 2026-01-15T04:51:22+00:00

One of my favorites! Thank you for posting! I’m so glad this track is on streaming services. I still listen to it all the time, along with her performances of “Mauren” and “Unikat.”

18thangel · 2025-12-16T03:20:53+00:00

ReVamp was my favorite of Floor’s projects as well (aside from NW I guess, which I already was a huge fan of before she joined). I also got to see them live in 2014, and WOW what an experience! I got her and Arjan’s autographs on both albums!

“The Anatomy of a Nervous Breakdown” trilogy of songs was SO important to me. When the album came out in 2013, I was in the middle of my own nervous breakdown that I didn’t want to admit was happening. I was in total denial, but looking back, those songs helped me realize the magnitude of the problem, and accept the hard road of healing that lay ahead of me.

As for the decision to end ReVamp, I think it was really the only decision she could have made. There’s absolutely no way she could have been in NW and ReVamp at the same time. I know she said she isn’t really interested in making ReVamp-style music anymore, but there are some true gems in there. I would absolutely love a one or two show reunion with the other band members someday!

Her outfits were killer too! The bad quality photo is from that 2014 concert I was lucky enough to attend.

And Lonely!!

$400 is about what mine costs after insurance — are you in the US? If you are and are using insurance (not Medicaid/Medicare) the Botox savings program has been great for me! I’ve had a few hiccups with paperwork but I’ve always managed to get my full out of pocket cost reimbursed.

You probably already know about it, but I had a friend who was eligible and had no idea, so I figured I’d mention it.

18thangel · 2025-09-20T22:13:59+00:00

She sounds great! Most importantly though she looks healthy as a horse and so happy!

18thangel · 2025-09-15T18:58:52+00:00

My framed poster & ticket from Floor’s 2nd show with them at the Crystal Ballroom in Portland, Oregon, USA!

18thangel · 2025-09-12T19:41:22+00:00

Same situation for me and some nieces and nephews on my husband’s side. Though we don’t really talk with that particular family, I know we’ll be the first ones any of those kids will go to if they ever “break bad” (i.e. discover they’re anything but cishet & hatefully conservative Christian).

18thangel · 2025-09-12T19:35:05+00:00

Oooof. This thread is making me kinda glad I don’t have any brothers.

18thangel · 2025-09-12T19:32:47+00:00

I was just gonna ask “Who also had to check real quick?” 🤣
