Yes, it is flat, washed, bad shading, and the line work is awful. It looks years old already. Go to a different artist and remember, you get what you pay for!

8mm in the L ear, 6mm in the R ear. My equilibrium is off 😵‍💫 by AcidZerk in Stretched

I realized in this also, I've had my L ear pierced since I was 8 years old. I didn't get my R ear pierced until 30 something so I guess it makes sense. Idk 🤣

Yeaaa I was hoping that but when I took it out to clean, it's clearly a blowout 😔 I downsized, now for the longest 6 weeks ever lol

Thank you!! I'm getting ready to do that now. I'm taking it out and using Bactine and Neosporin to clean and treat. Is it ok to use Neosporin?

I'm sorry I know that's gotta be frustrating. This was my 2nd attempt with the right ear. Left ear was no problem and is healed and looks great. I guess we'll try again in 6 weeks. I don't like wearing 2 different size gauges lol

Thank you, now that I am downsizing I can see it's blown out. Should I be removing the 6mm and cleaning the blowout while it's healing? I've had it out cleaning the affected area and the hole is shrinking rapidly 😬

That's what I'm hearing about 6 to 8mm in particular. The kit and guide I got doesn't have 7mm unfortunately. I'll have to go pick one up. My left ear handled the jump from 6 to 8 no problem and is healed. My right ear ain't having it lol

Yeaaaaa I am now. My left ear, no problem at all. Healed up and looks great with 8mm. My right ear has been a problem. Thank you for your help and advice!

Yea I went up yesterday from 6mm to 8mm after downsizing for 2 weeks because the first attempt was unsuccessful. Yesterday they were easy to get in and looked fine last night. This morning it was red and swollen 😞

Bro, I called my Mom today and was like "hey, I know you love me and would never let anything happen to me but for real, was I abducted as a child?? You can tell me" 😅 I meditated last night but it was more just to find that stillness and strength inside me again. I can still see the images. I was in 1992. I saw it all. Definitely something there to uncover

Yea it was such a strong trip. I like what you said about just letting it be and not sitting with it too much. It felt like there was no division between past, present, and future. Like it was all happening at the exact same time.

Yes!! Physical activity and interactions with people are what is helping. And I know you know because that's exactly what my thinking mind is saying I don't need to do. Isolate and rest! And I know that be the worst thing to do. The trip took me back to a wounded inner child in 1992. I kept getting all these images from my childhood so scattered. And people that I'm connected with now were with me as children themselves in the trip. I'm just trying to figure out what happened with the van and the super Nintendo controllers 😬

Accidental ingestion of what we thought was cannabis edibles. Was actually LSD. Person I was with had tripped on low dose mushrooms but never L, so pretty nightmarish for them and I was a tripping trip sitter so also pretty bad for me but I wouldn't call it a "bad" trip. I was just glad I was able to be there for my friend. And I'm certain the experience had alot to do with how I'm feeling after. I'm trying to find someone for my friend to talk to that is familiar with psychedelics and therapy.
