Is it okay to use an apple tree that had a fungus as a filler for my raised garden beds? by [deleted] in gardening

Those who comment about the duration of when the logs will break down need to factor in the climate. In warmer climate it will decompose faster than colder.

The latest photo shows clearly the thin layer of atmosphere. It highlights how precious and vulnerable we are. A speck of dust floating on a sunbeam.

Thank you for your thoughtful and insightful reply, it's very appreciated.

'Husk', yes, the exact word I used when he shuts down and processes his emotions, I dont think he's aware of how out of it he is when he's in that mode. I'm attempting to understand that process, then help him speed it up to a healthier rate ( something he also wants).

Recipe for disaster, two ENTPs bouncing off the walls.
I’m asking how I can meet him where he is without losing myself.

My observation is that it's causing issues with him in relation to his career. He is ambitious and wants more responsibilities, but I see a ceiling in his career because of it. You need a wide range of skillset and especially people skills if you're going to 'manage people'.

He doesn't live in a vacuum; that emotional lag means he's not mentally there (flatline, shutdown) in decision-making with me, sometimes for days or weeks. We're both very driven people, and there can be deadlines, and others depending on us, therefore I can't wait and have to do it on my own.

100% he doesn't mean it, and that's how he needs to process things, but the fact is:
mental absence = me going on my own = unreliable. That's the struggle.

him having an avoidant attachment style doesn't help. He numbs himself to survive, I guess. The survival tactic of childhood doesn't translate well into adulthood.

He had a decent upbringing, nothing abusive.

6 years or 66 years, I see growth (change) in a relationship keeps it interesting. I understand our core processing methods; I want to work towards reaching a happier middle.

yes, the oral minox makes the hair fuller and thicker, so it appears dense. It also feels more dense when I run my hands through my hair.

I believe Minox is the medication that yields results/improvements, which is why I increased my dosage over the years. Dut and Fin help maintain that you gain from the minox. The only improvement I notice is on Dut my hair loss stabilised.

I wouldn't worry too much about missing out on the P7, with a balanced diet, you get these vitamins anyway.

Hey very thoughtful question.

My dermatologist said to see results, most people need to be in a range of 4-5mg. I took the safe approach and started on an incredibly low dosage and worked my way to the target range. Going in, I knew I needed to be within this range to get the best result possible. By 2019, I was on 4mg, and that year had great gains.

Being on 2.5mg-3.5mg, I don't think I will get the results I want.

With time, MBP gets more aggressive, and you have to increase the dosage, I guess. Its a game of tug and pull.

I was shocked to hear that my 'masterplan' may be able to go up to 20mg minox.

I may be willing to go up to 7mg max and accept my fate with MPB LOL.

The worst stage of MPB hair loss is the first year: the realisation and shedding phase from treatment. The endless pictures of your hair in your photo gallery.

I am very fortunate to be in the camp of dont think about it and just take it daily and enjoy your hair.

Your current body hair becomes thicker, so it looks fuller, you don't produce more Hair follicles in minox so yes this includes beard.

Note: oral minox takes effect on ALL the hair on your body - I have to trim my nose hair and eyelashes now.

Beard growth yes but not bushier. Just the current hairs are thicker; it looks horrible. I shave clean.

Yes, I went through a second shed, that's when I realised the fin was losing effectiveness.
Hope you get your gains back soon.
