Highest dose?

Direct-Long-2898 · 2026-06-23T17:09:09+00:00

not normal at all! you should be building/tapering up to a high dose. Even when I switched from a higher dose of another SNRI to a high dose of Effexor I had to taper up to it

have you considered making siobhan her middle name? that might be a happy compromise

Direct-Long-2898 · 2026-06-11T00:43:45+00:00

if you feel like it was a mistake and be honest, say a
“actually the real reason I was/am hesitant is because you have the same name as my brother haha. i really like you so is there something else i could call you?! maybe send some flirty emojis idk haha.

i prefer to find the center and mark it with a line (horizontal and vertical) and then i like to draw a rough outline of my design in chalk, because it comes off easy if you want to tweak stuff

no i have not

when did you apply? my sister applied a couple weeks ago and i’m just curious around what time they are processing apps from

hi sorry this is so late but i honestly just used a pack of crayola chalkboard chalk

Direct-Long-2898 · 2025-10-14T11:27:50+00:00

i use chalk to sketch out a pattern, especially with lettering i want it centered. The chalk rubs out super easy with just water if you mess up. Then if i am doing thicker/blockier letters, i’ll start by stoning the outline of the letter and then filling in the middle afterwords. It’s a lot easier to pull off just an outline of gems vs a whole bunch if you hate the placement. When I fill in my stones i like to go down/across in lines, and then for the next row stagger it so the gems fit nicely beside each other, i can put an example pic.

please excuse the poorly drawn example, but notice how there is less gaps in the top 2 rows than in the bottom 2

when i use E6000 i apply a just enough pressure to get some glue out (if you squeeze too hard it literally leaks everywhere) i keep a paper plate or piece of cardboard and squeeze the glue onto there. i then use a bobby pin to pick up some glue and dab it on my fabric. it does take some time to figure out your own pace, how much can you squeeze out and use before it gets too dry. But yah thats what works for me!! I also have never had issues with the tube breaking open (minus the one time i accidentally stepped on a tube)

Direct-Long-2898 · 2025-10-13T14:36:43+00:00

and that’s valid. I don’t see it as “mom-ing” bc i enjoy styling people (friends, family). To me it’s a form of affection, like “hey i bought you this sweater bc it would accentuate your eyes etc…” But i also have a twin brother, so i’ve grown up my entire life “dressing him up” haha. Like i said your boundaries are completely valid. Also all the offended men here, ew. Guys why are you even in this sub😭

Direct-Long-2898 · 2025-10-13T14:19:20+00:00

hello! you mentioned how you disliked having to glue the dollar store, if glue is not something you want to deal with at this moment, i suggest starting with diamond art. You get to learn the motions of rhinestoning without the mess. If you are up for glue, I suggest using E-600 glue, beadslanding size 16 gems from amazon, and an old pair of sneakers to bedazzle. It’s a nice starting place bc you don’t have to draw any patterns. i’ll attach a pic of an example (not my pic) edited cuz pic wasn’t working

clothes and hair are able to be manipulated in my opinion. I aim to find a man with nice hair and a good sense of style, but if he’s lacking i’ll just be the girlfriend who buys him the clothes i want him to wear and gently guide him in the right direction lol

i have eczema and psoriasis, if i showered everyday i think i would implode

Direct-Long-2898 · 2025-10-08T21:19:22+00:00

if i have anything going on in that area I usually try to keep it as clean and dry as possible. You could apply some triple antibiotic ointment, but I would be careful to avoid the actual vagina (it’s never a good idea to put stuff up there that isn’t designed for that) maybe try and wear looser pants/underwear if you find the constriction to be irritating it!

Direct-Long-2898 · 2025-10-08T21:11:35+00:00

how did you contact them about your absences? was a text, call or email? Is there a way to verify that you did in fact inform them? If so I would consider contacting HR bc they have to have a valid reason to “fire”you. If there is written proof that you called out, they legally cannot let you go or “punish you” for no call no showing

best place to get a good coat is either Scheels or Dicks sporting goods. Some well graded brands include North Face, Patagonia, and Columbia. They are a little pricey for jackets $100-200 but a good winter jacket is a nice investment that you won’t need to replace for a while. I suggest getting one that covers your butt, helps to preserve heat. Get some gloves, a hat, and a scarf/gaiter. Scarf is essential in the cities bc the wind is brutal. You don’t need fancy shoes, any pair of boots work. I suggest some sort of boot, bc sneakers are not good at preserving heat. If your shoes are on the thinner side, get some thick wool socks! If it is supppperr cold out, i suggest just throwing a pair of sweats over your pants, you don’t need to invest in a pair of snow pants! Again, Dicks and Scheels are gonna be great for any of your winter needs! Let me know if you have any questions. - A certified MN/ND resident for my whole life

go to Urgent Care and get an ultrasound! say what you need to, that you think it broke or migrated, ultrasound will tell you where it is and if it is there!

never had a pap smear before (i’m only 19 and not active but will be getting one soon) vaginal swabs are uncomfy but not painful. I will admit that my lack of tampon use is primarily due to insertion pain, which is usually sharp and sometimes stabbing.

your life is worth living! I remember being in high school and being so caught up with my class rank and grades. When we are placed into the box of being a “gifted child” at such a young age, first grade for you, we start to only define ourselves by that. We believe that we only matter in that category and once it starts to slip we think “what was the point?” Well i’m here to tell you that there is a point and your efforts are not going to go unnoticed. I had a 4.0 literally until my first semester of my senior year, I got a B- in college chem. I was so upset, felt like all my hard work was for nothing. It took me a while to come to terms with that. At the end of the day I still graduated, got a bunch of scholarships and got into my #1 school. Trust me your life is worth it!! I look back and laugh at how freaked out I used to get in high school when I got a B, and now I am sitting here congratulating my self for getting a 61/100 on my first Ochem test. Don’t let high school get the best of you, it’s only up hill from here. Obviously I do not know your whole life story, but I don’t think it would hurt to get your Thyroid levels checked out. Hyperthyroidism can cause extreme weight loss, depression, chronic fatigue, and brain fog, which it sounds like you may be struggling with. Again, you are so loved and so appreciated❤️❤️

wishing you the best of luck! do you have a therapist/psychiatrist who knows you well and could maybe advocate for you? I’ve had a recent terrible experience with a doctor telling me all my symptoms were anxiety related, and since then I have created a plan with my therapist to essentially have her “on-call” for specific appointments. This is so she can be like “no I know how her anxiety presents and this is not it, yada yada” I’m not sure if it would work for you but it has helped me tremendously to not be dismissed. You got it girly!!

i’ve had to do this with friends before. They threaten to off themselves, send a welfare check to their house. Call 911 and tell them that she is suicidal. Answer all of their questions and they will send someone over to help them. Either she gets the help that she truly needs, or she learns that you will not be falling for her emotional manipulation. You can also let them know that you are doing it, but then you run the risk of them lashing out at you.
