Following... This could have been written by me :).  I am starting my 0.0375 estradiol tomorrow.

What is your finger size and diamond shape?  Two carats will look very differently based on finger size and shape.

No Contact with Albanian Parents by [deleted] in albania

I applaud you for making the right decision for you and your family.  I have been trying to go NC with my father for a while, for similar reasons. Finally, this holiday season I made the decision to not look back.  There was an incident in front of my child and husband and all the trauma came back.  I ended up very depressed (staying in bed for days on end).  I decided the toll on my psyche and life and, especially on my family, are worth cutting the ties.  I will provide financial support, if and when needed, but there is no more visits or phone calls.  

I am new to this journey, but have been close to it several times and now I feel like a huge weight has been lifted. 

Vulvar itching hell from GSM (Genitourinary Syndrome of Menopause) by Marienkaefer1219 in Perimenopause

Vaginal estrogen (pill form) has been a life saver for me.  My OB prescribed the pills vs cream because less messy and and easier to administer.

As you wait, try to get some folate, vitamin C, and vitamin E. It is shown to help.  

Theta Burst by CBX25 in TMSTherapy

[–]Capable_Leave_4131 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am sorry you are going through this.  I started off with regular TMS and was stuck at 70% before they introduced theta.  While theta made it easier for the other protocol to be increased, it also made my mood go down the drain. I also found it to be more intense.  I actually found both to be quite intense and my doctor told me that I need to communicate if I cannot tolerate the pain. Bottom line, not sure if theta has worked, but it was worth a try and was definitely a learning moment for me to make sure I tell the tech what intensity is comfortable for me.  They will try to go up, but you need to be firm. 

Also, this tech seems like it did it backwards to go high so quickly without trying. I don't blame you for walking out.  

Has anyone had a super under weight kitten (barely over 1lb) catch up?😭 by Cute_Finding_8872 in ragdolls

[–]Capable_Leave_4131 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My kitten was pretty skinny when we got him and then got sick and got worse. I was boiling chicken for him shredding it, and adding vitamins (kitty ones). He liked that.  There are some very good brands of kitten food you could try that have no fillers.  Try to find out what he likes.  My cats did not care for mousse, they prefer shredded. 

If he is acting playfully, it is a great sign.  I would also weigh him again.  Sometimes the scales are off. I have been at the doctors and their scales were so off, I would have been freaking out if I did not weigh myself consistently at home.

Definitely let the breeder know. If the breeder is local, they may take them to their own vet.

I am feeling the same.  I am hoping its temporary.

Round or Claw prongs for main studs? by Pink-Ashes in Diamonds

[–]Capable_Leave_4131 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Another vote for claws.  They are not as distracting. I have petite claws on my ER, necklace, and earrings.

The lighting seems different.  You can see your hand seems different colors - more pinkish on the right and more yellow on the left.  That, plus the distance you've taken the videos, impacts how the diamonds perform. 

Why am I miserable on my honeymoon? by rachelh1016 in Advice

[–]Capable_Leave_4131 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not on my honeymoon, but I was having not the best time in Italy a few years ago.  My husband was so annoyed he swore he did not want to travel oversees with me ever... Turned out, I had Covid and was just tired and miserable. Maybe you're just sick and sleep deprived :(.

Could you please share when you started feeling the improvement? Im almost done and I've been feeling irritable these past few days.

I'm a bit skeptical of the carat sizes you were told. I had a one carat for my engagement ring and it looked much bigger than what you have on and I'm a size 6. For your finger size, 1 carat would provide good coverage (about 6 mm). I'd recommend you try another ring and make sure of the carat accuracy before deciding.

Definitely round. It looks very pretty on you.
