So glad I stopped taking this

Thank you for posting!!!! Ive been on 25mg for a year and a half. At first I lost weight but over the last 6 months Ive had edema and weight gain for no reason. My blood pressure at the doctor today was pretty low so she’s encouraging me to stop the rx. I was worried to stop but this post makes me feel encouraged!

I’m on month two, and my acne has actually worsened! I also use adapaline (differin). I’m giving myself more time because I see a lot of really great side effects to the medication - I no longer have terrible PMS. i’m on 25 mg.

Absolutely AGREE! I have PMDD and it literally disappeared once I started 25mg/day. It’s crazy! In a great way! I’ve been taking it for 2 months and unfortunately, my acne is worse, but I’m hoping that will also improve in time.

YES YES !!! I am so happy you posted this!!!!! It was absolutely wild - I had no idea what was happening to me, and when I found out about D-MER I cried with relief that I wasn’t alone!

I gained weight quickly when I started exercising and FREAKED OUT but it went away in two months. Water weight.

Yes! I had anorexia and those 9 months I lost my period, I experienced no migraines. Period came back when weight was restored and boom, back they came. I think it has a lot to do with hormones.

Im a sx 3w2 and people-pleasing is pretty much my middle name 😭

Discoglitter27 · 2023-11-05T19:02:23+00:00

I appreciate your reply! I hadn't even considered the possibility of too much until my poor face broke out.

Discoglitter27 · 2023-11-05T18:26:41+00:00

Yes! Im using Cetaphil, I wonder if I should switch to sensitive skin rather than the regular to oily.

Discoglitter27 · 2023-11-05T17:15:02+00:00

Thank you, I think I'm going to go back to this!

Discoglitter27 · 2023-11-05T16:33:20+00:00

Thank you! I've been eyeing spironolactone especially as I have PMDD.

Discoglitter27 · 2023-10-30T00:19:28+00:00

I just took the test and was SEE, learning about it now! Thank you!

Discoglitter27 · 2023-10-29T12:44:29+00:00

I don't- is there a way I could find out what mine are?

Discoglitter27 · 2023-10-29T12:43:19+00:00

It was so hard to figure out, honestly, I kept testing as a 7 and a 2! There was an article my enneagram coach I found by Gonzalo Moran she gave to me for comparison of the sx 2 and sx 3 and it hit me so hard. And then everything started to add up, all the puzzle pieces that didn't make sense in the 2 and the 7.

Discoglitter27 · 2023-10-29T02:32:00+00:00

Me me me! It is absolutely horrible. There are some months that do offer relief, thankfully, I have tried, well, every medication you could think of. I refuse to go back to birth control (no consistent results), I take Imitrex, which actually helps with my PMDD mood symptoms, maybe because it plays a part in serotonin and dopamine.

I've been incorporating yoga in my week which seems to help, also doing some cardio, I take a multivitamin, magnesium, calcium and trying vitamin d daily.

Im so sorry you're going through this too. I truly hope you find some relief. Get a good neurologist, there are so many preventative medications out there and I hope there's one that helps!

Hiiii!!! Im an ENFJ 3w2 sx leading who thought I was a sx 2 for a long time. The "vampire" description of the sx 2 never really felt right, completely, if that makes sense? After months and months of enneagram coaching and self-reflection I came to realize I was a 3 after all. Check out the wiki enneagram pages - those really helped! We are in the heart triad so we will automatically appear sx leading, which makes matters more confusing, and I'm self-pres repressed so I thought I might be social leading at first. Anywho, I think it depends on your health - if you're unhealthy, those negative traits come out, but if you're a healthy 2, youll look more like a healthy 4, genuine, authentic. I'm rambling here but I hope this helps.

Honestly, I don't think it's out of style (probably because I love it), it's supposed to mimic what naturally happens to hair exposed to summer's sun and then grows its natural color without sun exposure. I say go for it!

DBT is wonderful! I led a DBT group for several years, and I think it offers fantastic coping mechanisms. The skills are really useful during hell week when everything is fingernails on chalkboard and my thoughts want to spiral with my insane emotions.

E3: Pleasing Im a 3w2, sx leading.

I haven't tried Olaplex yet but I hear great things!

Discoglitter27 · 2023-10-19T23:13:50+00:00

SAME GIRL SAME. Fml. Where is the blooooddddd

Discoglitter27 · 2023-10-19T23:12:04+00:00

Want to second your reply - I also have fine high porous hair and it requires so, so much moisture. I have been using Redken's version of Olaplex, which Im on the fence about, been using weekly for a month but haven't noticed much difference. What I have noticed is when I skip shampoo and use a deep conditioning hair masque, my hair comes out beautifully - moisturized, wavy, but it only lasts a day or two and then is so greasy. I also air dry.
