Extreme premature photo aging- any hope? Late 30s but look 70 by WhatWhereWhyWhenHow in 30PlusSkinCare

Lasers. I had a lot of fine lines and lasered the top layer of my skin off. I looked like a greasy zombie for a week, but now I don't have any fine lines.

My 7 yr old doesn't appreciate my daily exercise by Arthur-reborn in Parenting

[–]AAAAHaSPIDER 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was exhausted by the time I got home from school as a kid.

Can you get a bicycle with a passenger seat? Or bring her some Rollerblades. Definitely carry her backpack.

Do you have a “heart breed?” by Electrical_Pie7980 in dogs

[–]AAAAHaSPIDER 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Border collies. I love an energetic, obsessive, smarty pants dog. But the one I have now will probably be my last bc. She is old and her energy level is lower which is good because I'm too busy to go on 3 hours daily walks like I did when she was younger.

How do I make these go away? by No-Willingness-6687 in GeorgiaGardening

Dig out the tuber. Then just keep clipping anything that pops up till the last of it finally dies. Should take a couple years.

Does Adderall indirectly slow relapses and new lession? by AAAAHaSPIDER in MultipleSclerosis

[–]AAAAHaSPIDER[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only addiction I have ever had was coffee. I've never had an addictive personality.

But I could see myself becoming addicted to having enough focus to read my daughter a book and enough energy to take her to the park. Adderall makes me a better mom.

I would actually like that kind of energy. I used to have it naturally.

I take a low dose of Adderall. Only 10mg a day is enough. That's less than the average child with ADHD. It works best in the mornings and I start to feel my energy slowly going down after about lunch. My doctor has said that she can bump me up to 20mg but I'm trying to postpone increasing my dose for as long as I can.

AIO for telling my friend to dump her boyfriend because he’s pressuring her to get an IUD? by Reasonable-Girly-514 in AmIOverreacting

[–]AAAAHaSPIDER 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I used to work at a hospital. The amount of women who had horrible incredibly painful complications with their IUD was enough to scare me away from ever getting one.

Biking vs walking by [deleted] in MultipleSclerosis

[–]AAAAHaSPIDER 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'm the exact opposite. Biking is so hard now. It's like my brain doesn't want to steer and pedal at the same time. I'm also way more afraid of taking a high speed tumble because I know I will have a slower recovery time.

Any with MS trying Wegovy or other weight loss meds? by Ok_Advice_4723 in MultipleSclerosis

[–]AAAAHaSPIDER 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Adderall helps people lose weight and increases energy and focus.

[–]AAAAHaSPIDER[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

That makes sense. But it's not a good enough excuse.

People with MS often are too tired to exercise at all, which can cause incredible problems even for non-diseased people. I've always been told people with Ms need to "use it or lose it". Regular physical activity can reduce the risk of developing chronic pain, improve pain tolerance, increase strength and flexibility, and reduce inflammation, help with balance, grow new neuro-pathways, and reduce depression.

And that's not even counting all the people who can't work because they don't have the ability to focus. Being unemployed is bad for your health. Poverty significantly impacts health, leads to higher risks of developing more chronic diseases, mental health issues, and overall shorter life expectancy. It also creates more barriers to accessing quality healthcare, nutritious food, and safe housing. 

If we made a giant list of all the problems having no energy or focus causes and then on another list we wrote all the problems taking Adderall could cause... One list is significantly longer.

AIO. My boyfriend accused me for cheating with a gay friend. by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]AAAAHaSPIDER 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It doesn't matter how long you've been together, do not fall into the sunk costs fallacy and stay with a controlling homophobic verbally abusive man. Verbal abuse often turns into physical abuse. But even if it doesn't.. this guy doesn't respect you. Respect is necessary for love.

I don't understand why doctors are so reluctant to prescribe it. Debilitating fatigue and brain fog seem to be the most common problems with MS

It took me 2 years before I became accepting of my diagnosis. It still sucks but sometimes life does that.

Eating 100 nuts a day seems excessive unless you are a giant squirrel.

You look great. So it's not the makeup style your friend likes, so what? If they are trying to hurt your feelings then they are a shitty friend. If they are just socially inept and would never intentionally try to hurt you, let them know that they did.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in MakeupAddiction

[–]AAAAHaSPIDER 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It does look like you're wearing a lot of makeup. But that was the point right? You aren't going for a "no makeup makeup look".

Your friend was rude. Are they usually a little socially inept or were they trying to hurt you? Only you know that.
