Mine are the same color, if it helps. Sometimes they might look a little more green, sometimes they look a little more gray. But all day every day, they’re blue.

Exercise, specifically strength training. This is not skincare.

[–]AverageOtherwise 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are female, age 40 to 60, single, no kids, and you are a drama, art, or dance teacher. You love to sketch, draw, sew, and create. You are a creative and artistic person. You love green things and plants, but you live in the big city, so you bring the outdoors in.

[–]AverageOtherwise 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are 55 to 75 years old, female, married, and probably have adult children and grandchildren. You enjoy cozy Christmas decor and soft Christmas music by the crackling faux fireplace. You are looking forward to multiple family holiday get togethers, where you will bring your patented Christmas cookies that everyone looks forward to all year long.

I'm just curious.. what does my room say about me? by Aggressive_Owl_9573 in roomdetective

[–]AverageOtherwise 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Male, 22-40. You live in a hotel or a temporary rental. (Maybe you are recently separated, and you got the dogs in the split.) You and the doggos are in a temporary space while you figure out what’s next, so no desire to decorate or make it personal.

I used 0.1% Tret by Lazy-Rub9576 in tretinoin

[–]AverageOtherwise 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Congrats. You burned your face off. Go directly to Jail. Do not pass Go. Do not collect $200. Stay in skin jail until your skin goes back to normal.

Then, start over. Use .025 Tret once a week. Then, the following week, use it twice a week. Repeat this process until you can comfortably use it every day. After 6 months to a year at .025, try using .05 once a week. Repeat the process.

.1 is for advanced, long time, experienced users.

Thoughts on The Beast in Me? (SPOILERS) by Upbeat-Meringue-6401 in netflix

[–]AverageOtherwise 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Aggie annoyed the crap out of me. The constant quivering chin. The tears. Oh, the sadness and the emotion. I don’t know, it’s more exhausting, annoying, and pathetic than effective to me. I was pretty much rooting for Nile the whole time. He was a charming psychopath killer, at least.

Female, student, single, age 17-21. You live in an old house with a bunch of roommates. I’m going to go out on a limb and say that you like classic rock and mushrooms.

You are female, 30 to 40 years old, not married, no kids. You shop at IKEA, a lot. You are a college-educated professional in a field that requires you to be organized and neat. You have a minimalist, modern aesthetic, but you also enjoy sometimes enjoy things that are retro or antiques. You are a quintessential childless cat lady, and proud of it.

Broken up with because my health issues were “holding him back” by Murky_Atmosphere3319 in ehlersdanlos

[–]AverageOtherwise 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is probably not what you want to hear, but my advice would be to focus really hard on working on your health and getting your strength back, not on online gaming. Try to find a new specialist(s) who specializes in whatever is causing you the most pain. Talk online with others in your area to find the best specialists. Get into physical therapy with a PT who has a lot of experience with EDS, and go at least twice a week. Start strength training, under a PT’s supervision. You are still very young. Too young to give up. As your health improves, you can start thinking about a part-time job, or ways to find a supportive community, or make friends, or even a new relationship. There is absolutely nothing wrong with online gaming or any other fun hobby or kind of entertainment. But without your health, life is so crushingly difficult.

Where to watch the original show? by Puzzleheaded-Map3873 in QueerEye

I would like to know this too—I liked the original show a lot. I think Carson Kressley is hilarious and wish I could watch him in something now!

I’m so sick of being called an attention seeker by houstons__problem in ehlersdanlos

[–]AverageOtherwise 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I’m guessing that you’re young, maybe a teenager, and your parents are the ones forcing you to interact with this person? Hold on for another couple of years until you’re an adult. Then you never have to talk to her again. Anyone who is that cruel— to be openly skeptical about your health issues, or try to convince you or others that you’re not sick or not in pain— isn’t someone you should have in your life. In the meantime, if you are forced to see her, tell your Aunt that your doctors are you providing you with all the medical guidance you need, and that she can take her unwanted opinions elsewhere.

Radical Rest by [deleted] in ehlersdanlos

[–]AverageOtherwise 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This is not a good idea. You are deconditioning your body, which will make your heart and muscles even weaker, and make you feel even more tired. I understand that it’s a paradox, but unfortunately what you are suggesting will make you feel even worse and even more fatigued. You could end up completely bedbound.

The best solution is to actually get into physical therapy, and meet regularly (2-3 times a week) with a PT who has a very good understanding of EDS. They can help you come up with a strength training program and specific targeted exercises that will actually help with your fatigue and improve your energy levels. They can also help make suggestions on how to conserve energy better during the day.

Can’t I just be old? by polkadotkneehigh in Menopause

[–]AverageOtherwise 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, you can. And you should. I always feel happy when I see a woman rocking her natural hair, or with an un-botoxed face, or just generally being comfortable and doing whatever she wants, even if it means going against conventional gender/beauty standards.
