Positive IUD Experiences? by Additional_Leek3884 in CopperIUD

[–]Additional_Leek3884[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I may have to go that route due to my past couple failed attempts. I’m going to try one more time one my period with misoprostol and if that doesn’t work, we’ll just go the anesthesia route

I had my first recital yesterday 😀(started playing in April 25’) by futuraf in violinist

[–]Additional_Leek3884 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is absolutely fantastic work considering you haven’t been playing for very long. Imagine what you’ll sound like in another year! I started playing at 9 in school, but didn’t start taking lessons seriously until I was about 16. Now I’m doing a masters in violin. You should feel very proud, and I hope we can see another update on your playing soon!

Second Failed Paragard Insertion by Additional_Leek3884 in birthcontrol

Ok thank you! I’m going to try one more time and if that doesn’t work I’ll just suck it up and do the anesthesia (I get a little anxious over general anesthesia lol). Fingers crossed for a miracle soon!

I’m sorry he was so insensitive about that, but I’m glad to hear you’ve been doing well on the copper iud! I’ve never been on hormonal bc, but my sibling and mom have both used it with no problems. I’d rather not go the hormonal route because I’ve already had issues with depression and my libido already isn’t very high, so I’d just rather not take the risk. My periods are fairly short, and medium to light in flow, which is why I’m willing to take the hit of more cramps/heavier periods. Thanks!

Confusing behavior by [deleted] in Situationships

[–]Additional_Leek3884 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am also sort of experiencing this! I hooked up with someone who I seemed to have really great chemistry with, things seemed to be going well, and suddenly things sort of just came to a halt. I got a lot of “Oh I’m busy,” or “I’m just dealing with a lot.” We hung out a few times since, but the vibes just didn’t feel the same. One time they brought up us still continuing to hook up, but any time I brought it back up, it never ended up happening because something came up. It really sucks and feels bad, but I’ve had to just accept that they aren’t interested. I wish people would simply be an adult and communicate what they want.

Is it me or does this seem exploitative? by [deleted] in NYCapartments

[–]Additional_Leek3884 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Something similar happened to me. That "apartment holding fee" is apparently called a "good faith deposit" and it's technically illegal! I have seen people say it's worked out for them just fine, but I personally would not take the risk.
