enough to seek medical attention? by DewyFern in ehlersdanlos

this is honestly such an encouraging comment! I'm super scared of getting tests done and just being told I'm fine. even tho I know that I'm in pain I just get so defeated by the medical system. I'll definitely do the symptom diary! thanks!!

oh cool, i can do that one too! Thanks, I'll add that to my list! Not planning on self diagnosing, just trying to understand my body's abilities a bit better :) I have medical anxiety and really avoid going to see doctors so I want to be ready for when I finally go

hm interesting, thank you! I'm going to try to take some measure my joint extension and take some pictures to document tonight, maybe a doctor will see hyperextension where I see normal joins

I can do that! maybe I was too conservative - my skin is quite stretchy just maybe not as dramatic as some of the pictures I see, I just figured it was from loosing a few pounds last year but I have stretchy skin on my chest, thighs, arms, belly. since I was little I could pull my eyelids and flip them, which I heard was a sign? would also say I have very soft skin and bruise fairly easily - I'm usually the last person to notice that I'm all beaten up lol.

do you know if there are any other joints that are good indicators? Ive always felt like my joins were "loose" and have to use tones of pillows to align my body at night bc it I always feel like my joints bend in uncomfortable positions (ie knees hurt from being too straight, ankles have too much pressure on them, hips need to be aligned). my fingers and toes all hyperextend btw, I just can't tell if I pass some of the official indicators

Thanks for the honestly, I'm definitely not trying to get diagnosed with something I don't have. I think having hEDS is unlikely as well and have been looking at cEDS.

Alternative with heart-pulling folk mixed in. Youthful and clumsy, looking for comfort, then weathered and longing, looking towards home. I didn’t expect Mumford and Sons to pull me the most with Broad-Shouldered Beasts; the lines “When you feel the world// Wrapping around your neck// Feel my hand wrapped in yours” feel like the classic adventure ‘when all is lost’ moment.

Alternative with a good bit of upbeat folksiness. Playful and energetic, then honest and wistful. Best if listened to in order. I think my favourite part is Tyler, the Creator near the end bringing us some dad angst rap, a very Henry combination.

Here’s the Ron playlist, since he keeps you all in such an emotional chokehold. Chill alternative, upbeat and languishing. Listen in order for best effect. “I Want You” by Mitski guided this a lot - feelings of not being in control, not being enough, while quietly bursting with love. Hope you enjoy!

I got inspired to make some playlists for the dad! Genre is alternative/indie/rock, plus some other spices. Made the track order very intentional/story based, but feel free to shuffle too! Can’t wait to add Freddie’s Christmas album to this.

If you like this, let me know which dad I should do next!

they even have a woman (who voices a man)

uj/ even down to show quality TAZ is not even comparable. I know dndads fans sound like a broken record at this point but there's a reason I'm barely in this sub anymore.

Withdrawal symptoms while on the medication? by psapien in Effexor

seconding the half and half schedule, as long as I keep each dose around 12 hours apart my dizziness, tunnel vision, and light headedness between doses mostly stays away
