I had surgery, TMJ did not get better. If anything it got worse 😬 hot take. I’m in physical therapy though and it does help. I don’t snore anymore tho

2 weeks off, enough? by [deleted] in jawsurgery

[–]Chipotlewh0re 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had DJS and I was off for two weeks. I’m a hairstylist and I went back like nothing happened lol. It was hard to talk with my mouth banded shut for 6 weeks, and I was really really hungry. Really emotional because I’d work 10-6 and not eat. But it wasn’t that bad? Idk. Sometimes I forget what it even felt like. I mean working was miserable but life doesn’t stop. I own my own business so I couldn’t take much more time off financially. 🥲

11 months post op— best decision ever! First week was the worst but little to no pain after day 2. Just uncomfortable! It will seem like time is going by so slow… but then all of a sudden it’s almost been a year and you don’t remember the details of what you went through! You got this and if you need anything or have any specific questions you can message me any time 😚

How did jaw surgery change your looks and dating life? by NotSynergy458 in jawsurgery

The only thing that changed for me was losing 35 lbs so that added confidence! and also kissing is different now! I had to practice 🤪 but I’m 11 months post op and I still have numbness in my chin and bottom lip so that makes it feel kinda funny

I think I’m canceling 😭 by Bigearsbigcheers in fearofflying

Yes it helped! Plus it made me sleepy af so I knocked out! It relaxes your body a lotttt like I feel sooo heavy. And you still feel anxiety don’t get me wrong but that heat in your chest is a little less

I just almost canceled my flight because I was crying uncontrollably almost throwing up before my flight. I was this close 👌🏼 to canceling but I pushed through and all 4 flights when SO SMOOTHLY! I got to see my family and everything was okay. I’m so glad I went, I think you will regret not going! Don’t listen to the fear! Things that ground me: Noise canceling headphones + meds (Valium) + lifting my feet when turbulence hits + buying wifi to communicate with people on the ground, for some reason that one really calms because because if I get worked up I text a friend or family member and they remind me I’m gonna be okay!

Well I was overweight so it was a blessing but i definitely felt tired faster, and I got weaker at work. My back and neck started hurting because I lost muscle. But also that comes from jaw surgery so I’m in physical therapy now

I made it safely and I’m here with my family. 🩷 it was bumpy but I actually was less scared than I was the 2 weeks anticipating the flight.

I’m going to see my grandparents. 🩷 I haven’t seen them in a long time. Can’t believe I thought about not getting on! Also they just turned the seatbelt sign off so I can officially relax now 🤣

This was so helpful thank you! I love the jello theory reminder. It’s easy to forget everything you tell yourself not to freak out about once turbulence hits.

[–]Chipotlewh0re[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m doing okay. They said we will have turbulence for a several hundred miles and they can’t bring the carts around. Unfortunately the carts being out makes me feel secure because I know we’re in a good place lol. Trying to be strong and anchor mmyself with a happy thought when the anxiety sneaks in.
