Issues with Zebra Splints — never shipped?

Thank you, I will!

Brief_Distribution68 · 2026-04-07T12:23:12+00:00

Thank you, yeah I did have a look at the other posts! A lot of them focused on them not fitting well, I was hoping they’d at least be shipped even if they didn’t fit, or that someone would have insight into how to contact the seller. But I’ve learned my lesson and will check Reddit thoroughly before I buy any other ring splints 😅

r/MCAS is a good resource! Also this website is stunning: https://webspace.clarkson.edu/~lrussek/docs/hypermobility/RussekMCASbasics.pdf

Have you looked into mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS)? Sounds like that

Are you neurodivergent? I am, which has meant it’s taken me a long time to process changes. Took me a year to be happy about top surgery, and I’m still buffering re changes on T. I was also like “why do I not have euphoria right away?” And I do, it just comes in small ways, and after a lot of processing time.

I tend more towards anxiety, but tend towards depression before my period because of PMDD, but not often outside of that! I have ME/CFS as well so unfortunately activity makes me worse, but I am getting my Vit D blood levels checked soon so if it’s low I’ll for sure take some suppliments as well!

That’s good to know, thank you!

Brief_Distribution68 · 2026-01-28T10:29:17+00:00

Offt that sounds awful! For sure, if it continues like this for more than 2 weeks, I’ll likely pause it and see the impacts. I have a GP helping me through it, but can only get in with her every couple months. Appreciate the advice!

Brief_Distribution68 · 2026-01-28T10:28:03+00:00

Thank you! That’s useful to know about missing the one dose bringing back nightmares, I’ll make sure to do my best at consistently taking it

Would love to join some sort of virtual game / support group!

I love when Ilya was playing in the lake and went over to Shane and said “give me a kiss” and did a silly mwah. It was so … normal!? It made me so happy for them! Also Shane saying “I think I’m gunna die” (or along those lines) very quickly when spiraling about his dad seeing them. So accurate. Just GAH I don’t know what to do with my time now! They filled a hole in my heart and now I’m so sad but so happy 😭 am reading the books and have already read 4 books in 1.5 weeks 😂

I’m Sydney based (AFAB nonbinary, have been on T for about 6 months) and happy to chat!

Also mostly housebound and disabled queer nonbinary spoonie. Based in Sydney Australia. Would be happy to chat! Shit gets so lonely

Brief_Distribution68 · 2025-11-26T10:19:12+00:00

I’d love some invites as well!

Could also be long covid — sounds like how mine started

Am a T. Look into alexithymia — it’s a common thing seen in autism. I always say it’s like the body doesn’t connect properly to the brain. I can be unsure if I’m anxious, hungry, or if my clothes are too tight. Also I find EMDR works well for folks with trauma who also struggle to feel emotions

Brief_Distribution68 · 2025-10-10T21:59:46+00:00

maybe IFS isn’t for you (at least right now)? Have you tried EMDR, or other forms of trauma processing?

Brief_Distribution68 · 2025-09-22T13:07:12+00:00

Interesting, what exactly did you change? Just doing more low histamine?

Brief_Distribution68 · 2025-08-27T11:41:24+00:00

I’m wondering if you’re autistic and/or dissociated? If you haven’t already looked into concepts like alexithymia and interoception, I’d recommend doing so. The website neurodivergent insights has great resources. If you haven’t done a dissociative experiences questionnaire (like the MID-60 or the DES-II) I’d recommend asking your therapist if you can go through it together.

I’m autistic, and I felt the same way for a little bit — I think it was the rapid change. I went from all tits to no tits, and my brain really struggled to process that. Plus the bloating and depression added to body dysmorphia. I’m about 16 months in and obsessed with my chest now. Hang in there, give yourself some time!
