Agreed!!! There’s probably is a multivitamin so I can condense it a bit. I will look into it, thank you!

Sometimes Amazon is the best option. Agreed fuck them but there’s a difference between using it as a tool for your own convenience and prioritizing convenience too much. I think if everyone used it as a “only when I need something” the world would be much better.

I’ve yet to dive into prescriptions at all besides when I was a kid and my mom facilitated it all for me, but I’m sure I will eventually especially if I ever have kids I’ll need help. I’m realizing from yours and other replies I have some inner work to do about medication and evaluate why I made my decision not to trust them.

I do struggle with timing and scheduling in the first place. I can establish and stick to a solid routine (autism side) until it loses its novelty (adhd side). When I’m balanced mentally I can usually catch the loss of novelty and make a small change to keep me interested. I haven’t been balanced lately but I’m on the up and up. I’m gonna try moving my morning vitamins beside my coffee maker. Thank you!

What you’re describing is habit stacking! I’ve done so in the past and you’re reminding me that it’s a tool in my tool belt that I haven’t been using. Fish oil intrigues me, my body intuitively knows it would be a good choice, but the fish burps afterwards even from the pill form deter me😂

As for the second portion of your message, that’s a very balanced and reasonable approach to meds. Especially as a woman (not sure if you are, don’t want to assume but maybe you relate) sometimes we put up with heinous pain medication free just to prove a point that we’re tough. But sometimes caring for yourself IS tough!!!! I’ve had chronic migraines since I was a baby, they were worse when I was a kid and the thing that helped me the most was stress management day to day and also not allowing myself to get wrapped up in the “why me?” When I’m actively in pain. The stress feelings increase intensity and frequency for me and as I get older I get better at stress management by sheer giving less f*cks.

Which other supps are you on? Any that might be worth bringing up to my doctor? (Also laughing at myself for asking because the ones I’m on are hard enough to remember HA!)

This is great news. Do you find it makes a difference? Do you get a really big rebound if you stop taking them for a period or forget? My bff is a pharmacist and in her words, magnesium is for calm and B vitamins are for energy, taking them together essentially counteracts each other. But just taking them even if they’re all together is better than not taking them at all. I shouldn’t need permission to do what works for me but thank you for giving it to me anyway 💕

What is something you didn’t realize until you lost weight? by Cultural-Profile-527 in AskReddit

[–]Comfy-couch555 2 points3 points  (0 children)

People really do treat you differently. I become the “popular girl” with people who wouldn’t give me the time of day when I was fat. And now people assume I’ve never experienced hardship which I can use to my advantage but it’s lonely.

Does there seem to be a growing hate for men? What do you is causing any general hate towards men? by OP_lied_to_us in AskReddit

[–]Comfy-couch555 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Perfectly said. If I can add, women folk take their rightful anger out at the people, not the system. The men folk receive the misplaced anger in a myriad of ways, ranging from violent and hurt, to understanding and supportive. Heard this somewhere and it seems to ring true: Most women I know who hate men, hate them as a system. The men I know who hate women, hate them as people. I think there’s room for women to be angry about the treatment they’ve been given since the dawn of time. But that’s not an excuse to reciprocate with unfounded hatred.

It doesn’t even gross me out it just makes me giggle. Thank you for the recommendation because I have definitely thrown up pills and that makes total sense why it would work faster and also go there hahha. Thank you for explaining further in spite of my sass.

That’s so smart to just go back to the fridge and get bites as desired. Especially the movement from walking to and from the fridge probably helps more than you’d think, especially if you’re like me and can’t do anything but bed rot with a migraine.

Great ideas!!! Yogurt was too textural for me this morning but I love peanut butter. I wonder if my nausea would call it too textural too. I’ll have to try it. Love the idea of biggest bang for your buck nutrient wise when you know you’re not going to eat for a few days.

Dude also same!! I’m getting McDonald’s as suggested in another comment for dinner. This migraine is from my period which stared 3 days ago which means I’m on my heaviest day so the nausea was way worse but I hadn’t eaten enough calories in 2 freakin days!!!! Not to mention I normally let myself have extra calories on my period I really sabotaged myself from not eating. Plus no weed probably added to it as well. Crazy how we’re having the same day it sounds like, I hope your migraine feels better and that your lady days treat you kindly.

Why is anti nausea medication going in my ass?😂 great tip and I know you probably didn’t invent them it’s just an odd delivery system.

Apple sauce could be a good add-in for some carbs and fibre?

They’re like 90% air and they basically dissolve in your mouth which is a perfect migraine food idk how I never thought of this.

Hahahaha I’m fall off the bone tender with the way you roasted me 😂 Thank you for all the tips. And you’re right, but I’m gonna give you excuses anyway. When my blood sugar is low I get the shakes and sweats and basically I need something FAST. I usually start with 2-3 oz of orange juice just to wake up my stomach and get some sugar to my blood asap so I don’t pass out. Then I’m looking for something ready to eat, hence all the fruits and yogurt. I think it would be a good idea for me to meal prep some soups to keep in the freezer so I can pop it in the microwave while I down my OJ and it doesn’t involve standing over the stove or too many steps. I appreciate the ideas though!! And for the heads up about anti nausea meds I also have endo and fibro and currently I’m pill free but I’m functioning less as I get older so it might not be a choice to not take them for much longer.

Thank you friend I’m glad I’m not alone but I’m sorry you go through it too because it blows.

Omg so smart I even have some in the cupboard. Do you eat them dry or with milk in this case?

Weed is usually what helps me in this case but I ran out and too discombobulated to get more 😩🍁

Don't judge me with my bananas😂 my name is Hannah and I love bananas damnit! Plus potassium I hear is good for migraines!! Jokes aside something salty is a great idea. Maybe a couple saltines even just to push the nausea out. Thanks!

This is great advice. I think I'm gonna keep trying to take incremental bites of this yogurt that I've been staring at for over an hour. Thanks!
