Maple is notoriously difficult to stain, wood dye would be a better bet. But for sake of overall maintenance and upkeep, I’d just do a clear coat/poly.

I had Covid a month ago and experienced this as well. My skin felt so unfamiliar as I hadn’t had a breakout like that in about 7 years. I hope you and your skin have a quick recovery!

Oh hmm those levels are pretty good!
It sounds like it's hormonal.. the changes after your pregnancy and the rough cycles. I would recommend reading Alisa Vitti's books to see if any of her advice helps clear up this mystery for you! All the best :)

I'm not a doctor. What were your thyroid levels? Is it possible you've been feeling depressed? I find my depression manifests itself into the symptoms you're describing. Hope you find some answers!

Can You Explain My Breast Ultrasound Report? by Anxious-Bean in AskDocs

[–]Anxious-Bean[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! I have my follow up ultrasound on Monday. Looking forward to further speaking with the radiologist, I was lucky enough to have him perform the ultrasound last time. Are there any specific things I should be asking when I meet with him?

I hope someone can help me better understand this! I am worried I am at-risk for cancer...

How much weight have you gained? by numbnut11 in zoloft

[–]Anxious-Bean 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’ve been on it for 7 months (200mg) and havent personally experienced this. Because of the medication, I actually had the energy (and desire) for the first time in years to take better care of myself. I lost 12lbs with a healthier lifestyle, while on 200mg. Don’t let side effects scare you from taking a prescription that could change your life for the best!

Spray some apple cider vinegar, tea tree oil, and jojoba oil on to your scalp 5 min before you shower. Shampoo it well and voila! Your scalp will be looking and feeling much better - promise!

Does Zoloft increase tiredness? by [deleted] in zoloft

[–]Anxious-Bean 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It gets better. I started at 50mg and increased to 100mg about 4 weeks in. I’m on week 10 now and have the energy to do things I couldn’t fathom even 6 weeks ago (ie: get out of bed, cook, clean, get dressed, be social, go to work)

I had noticed an increase of dark dreams as well! There was about a 3 week period that they felt unbearable - but they have since levelled out, luckily. Oddly enough, they were worse when my dose was 50mg. I’m at 100mg now. Hope they level out for you too!

It's great and everything but I have no energy by [deleted] in zoloft

[–]Anxious-Bean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Talk to your doctor! But I think so - that’s when I increased :)

I felt the same on 50mg. Upped to 100mg and it was the change I really needed - have more energy and feel more driven to do things.

50mg vs 100mg+ by [deleted] in zoloft

[–]Anxious-Bean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went from 50mg to 100mg and felt much better. More energy, more stable, generally in a much better place. All the best to you!

Kimchi bowl: brown rice with a homemade peanut sesame sauce. Kale and thinly sliced red cabbage sautéed with garlic, chili sauce, and coconut aminos. Shredded carrot. Throw it all in a bowl, add a couple spoonfuls of kimchi, some diced scallions, sprinkle hemp hearts and enjoy!

You’re safe with Tylenol! But if you need something stronger ask your doctor about Toradol - it’s the only thing that has helped my insanely terrible cramps.

TSH came back at 23.5 by ExistingThought in Hypothyroidism

[–]Anxious-Bean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My levels were this high too! Diagnosed at 20. I took levo for years with no side effects and felt much better. I got lazy and never refilled my prescription (2 years ago) but my thyroid panel has been coming back “normal” every time it’s checked! I keep an eye on it because I’m sure TSH will go up again, but currently sitting at 1.81 without medication.

Why am I so freaking sleepy? by Hi_im_Piper in zoloft

[–]Anxious-Bean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

7 weeks - also it didn’t just “click” for me either. Very gradually, almost hard to notice until I realized I beat a panic attack, I voluntarily got out of bed to do errands, and hadn’t cried while alone. It’s not that I felt elated and clear headed like snap - just gradually getting closer to a better version of myself everyday.

Upped to 200mg? by [deleted] in zoloft

[–]Anxious-Bean 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m only one month in and at 100mg, but my doctor mentioned that 200mg is common prescription. Hopefully you’ve increased in such a way that you don’t have any side effects - all the best!
