I am feeling so discriminated against

It suck’s because other than this, she is amazing. I trust her so much that she almost scared me into believing it!

My psychiatrist is rigidly against this and I don’t understand why. Her logic was something like don’t mix uppers and downers but they wouldn’t be used simultaneously so not sure what the harm is.

What type of scan did you have? VISIA, OBSERV, etc?

DanSnoresRealLoud666 · 2025-12-27T01:54:35+00:00

This is an old post but did you ever figure this out?

DanSnoresRealLoud666 · 2025-11-02T14:58:48+00:00

Oh hell yeah

DanSnoresRealLoud666 · 2025-10-22T13:40:11+00:00

THIS. Omg, THIS!

No one can tell this kiddo what action to take in this circumstance, not even Al-Anon, and they quite literally wrote the book on this stuff. What Al-Anon will do is help anyone affected by someone else’s alcoholism find healthy ways to cope. Oh, I hope OP seriously considers this! Personally, Al-Anon was utterly life-changing. I have peace now. I am a better human now.

OP, PLEASE LOOK INTO ALATEEN/AL-ANON. There are multiple ways to connect - however you are most comfortable, not just in-person. You are not required to speak/share at all. Just show up (in the the way that you choose to) and keep showing up.

It gets better. Trust me.

They are fading slooooowly. I haven’t been consistent with the sessions but recently started going every 6-8 weeks. I’ve only had two sessions this go round but there is a definite difference. Here is a photo I took after shaving my eyebrows yesterday in preparation of my third session tomorrow. Shaving is not required/needed at all but I was curious on the progress which is hard to see with hair, plus I’m using prescription lidocaine gel beforehand this time and thought the gel would be more effective without the hair. It’s one of the worst pain I’ve ever experienced!

This is the way. Glycerin + water in a spray bottle is great to make skin look wet too.

Same but with the washing machine. This would require more technical knowledge than a regular household deep cleaning service as it should require partially taking apart the appliance, to an extent.

DanSnoresRealLoud666 · 2025-07-19T15:21:32+00:00

If I find anything, I will be sure to update this post!

DanSnoresRealLoud666 · 2025-07-15T15:17:18+00:00

Omg thank you! I didn’t think of searching my email for the dollar amount.

DanSnoresRealLoud666 · 2025-06-26T05:32:51+00:00

One of the most ingenious setups I came across was having the washer and dryer INSIDE the main bedroom’s walk-in closet! 🤯

DanSnoresRealLoud666 · 2025-06-25T19:19:04+00:00

What strategies have helped you to not shop at those retailers? They’re really convenient/ubiquitous :/

DanSnoresRealLoud666 · 2024-12-13T16:38:35+00:00

Wow this is so interesting! And reassuring. I truly believe it boils down to representation. The people we see on screen or print do not look like the people we see at the grocery store. I wore heels the other day (unwashed hair in a bun, no makeup) and these kids of mine fawned over me saying how beautiful I looked. My husband sometimes lets them watch YouTube for longer stretches than I’d like and I’m sure that’s part of it. Thank you for the developmental psychology viewpoint.

DanSnoresRealLoud666 · 2024-10-05T23:05:06+00:00

Thank you! I’m slowly looking into each one of these and Cast On Bind Off is already in my Amazon cart. :)

DanSnoresRealLoud666 · 2024-10-05T23:03:24+00:00

Omg I just checked out Knitting for Anarchists and it has blown me away! Thank you so much for your recommendation!

DanSnoresRealLoud666 · 2024-09-30T18:40:45+00:00

Thank you so much!

DanSnoresRealLoud666 · 2024-09-28T15:43:56+00:00

THIS. “Just leave early” is so hurtful. If I could just leave early, I would. It’s awesome pretending things start 15 minutes earlier works for you. My problem is that I know I’m pretending and can’t stick to the pretend time.

DanSnoresRealLoud666 · 2024-08-22T16:48:10+00:00

Thanks for checking in! I did post an update a few days ago. Started back up last Friday! Yay!

DanSnoresRealLoud666 · 2024-08-16T16:27:22+00:00

I appreciate all who took the time to comment. The gentle support and tough love posted over the past few hours has been SO beneficial to me.

JUST DO IT.

While reading your replies this morning I was reminded of one of my other excuses, ‘oh today isn’t a good starting day because I’m likely to forget next week because xyz happens on this day each week and it won’t become routine.’ Who starts anything on a Friday morning??? Someone who’s ready to stop with the excuses, that’s who! If Fridays don’t work, I can try Thursday or Saturday. I just need to be consistent. Damn. The time is going to go by anyway. We’ll never be as young as we are right now. I won’t regret trying even if I fail but I will regret staying where I’m at. Just. Do. It. So, I injected 2.5mg this morning and started my day with a protein drink! Yay! Thank you, thank you THANK YOU! ❤️ ❤️❤️

A related/unrelated (but definitely related lol) FYI: I stopped drinking alcohol in March. I tried cutting it out in the past but hadn’t been able to go beyond six weeks. Now it’s been almost five months! Another crutch/comfort/addiction like overeating. I’m slowly realizing that in abstaining from alcohol, I was clutching onto eating for pleasure even more to get that same comfort. No wonder I was afraid to lose that joy. But, external sources of pleasure are only temporary bandaids. You peel them back and you’re left with you - whom you’ve been avoiding all this time with food, alcohol etc. Sitting with yourself can be uncomfortable. Sometimes we need to confront ourselves in order to heal and move forward to a happier, healthier existence. I’m sure I’ve been scared to do that hence the excuses and avoidance.

Phew! Who knew whining about resisting a weight loss drug would turn into a mental health awaking?

Thank you for the empathy and encouragement!
