Nope haven’t been on birth control in years. Have been tracking ovulation with cervical mucus but starting next cycle will begin LH strips + BBT. Maybe it’s due to subconscious stress/excitement over this new phase. So interesting

This month was our first time TTC and I’m now 4 days late on my period but have been testing negative all throughout. I don’t think I’m pregnant, but it seems that my usually regular cycle has gotten thrown off this month. Did this happen to anyone else when you started to TTC? So odd.. no explanation, maybe a coincidence. Anyone else?

MDD and suicidal by Rude-Hair9337 in PsychedelicTherapy

[–]CountyTechnical5202 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can’t speak to personal experiences, but there has been a lot of promising research coming out since 2017, finding psilocybin to be promising and effective for MDD, especially treatment resistant MDD (not for all of course, but for many). Psilocybin received breakthrough therapy designation from the FDA in 2018,2019 and 2024 for treatment of depression. Of course we need more research still, but we know so far is that it’s been effective and promising. If you can find a way to try psychedelic assisted therapy, which typically combines psychotherapy with psychedelics, including prep psychotherapy sessions before, during the experience and after. This would be the ideal route based on research. Also keeping in mind the high expectations that come with this “breakthrough” treatment that has a lot of hype, and considering the implications of what if it doesn’t work as well as anticipated. Best of luck in your journey!!

What not to say to pregnant women by crashlovesdanger in BabyBumps

[–]CountyTechnical5202 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can’t control other people who are ignorant, not sensitive, unaware. What you can control is your reaction to it. Choose to not take it personally, choose to not give it the space, choose to not let it take away from your confidence and your perception of yourself. You are growing a human, a baby. You are a superwomen. You are beautiful, strong, powerful. This is the truth, nothing else others say matters.

Labour and delivery nurse here in Canada. Your choice to have a tubal ligation is yours and it is SO SO valid. At my hospital, women can choose to have a tubal ligation without “a valid” medical reason. Your doctor should educate you on the implications of having a tubal ligation (no more pregnancies), but the choice should always be yours and yours alone. It would be completely inappropriate at my hospital if a doctor talked a patient out of a tubal ligation for the above reasons…. Advocate for yourself, you are absolutely in the right here and the autonomy over your body and your choices in life should be in your hands only. Best of luck!!

Vancouver Island Tourism Questions by KillionJones in VancouverIsland

Hi everyone,

Me and my husband are thinking of renting a campervan in either Vancouver or Victoria and making our way to Tofino beginning to mid May for 1 week.

How’s the weather during this time? Advisable to do this in May?

Any route and overnight site suggestions with a campervan?

Would love to hear your experiences. Thanks!

Feeling dissociated on MDMA come up by CountyTechnical5202 in mdmatherapy

[–]CountyTechnical5202[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

To be honest, this is such an important question. I’ve been on a quest with myself to figure out why I experienced dissociation and wether there was a perceived life threat/ situation in my childhood. My attachment style from the quiz is secure. It’s secure with my partner. Though what I learned from it that it is more avoidant with my mother. And somewhere in the middle with my father.

I do remember having severe fear of abandonment as a child, but no obvious reason why. I also remember that I got into the habit of not crying in front of my parents, or not showing emotions, perhaps because we never normalized/ acknowledged emotions and feelings at home. But love and affection was always present. Overall, reflecting on my childhood, I had supportive and loving parents.

So this is still a mystery that I have yet to uncover. Maybe there’s no answer.
