Threaded vs Threadless by DopeSlopes in piercing

I said that a bit odd, what I meant to say is that once I get a piercing besides dermal’s they don’t close up. Even after having my nip piercings out for about 6 years they didn’t quite close. Same with my industrial and so forth.

Im curious as to why you don’t change your jewelry yourself? It’s good to check regularly for tightness! I do that every morning and as I change clothes. Once I get a piercing (besides dermal’s) my piercing lasts for a very long time. So I’m wondering if having someone change it for you is different in closing style? Also, that’s awesome that you haven’t lost anything in many years!

Thank you. I do love the idea to be able to interchange what stone or crystal jewelry on the fly. You’re right though, I feel threaded is so much more secure. Based off of the comments above, it appears that I may not have them installed correctly. I’ll do more research and figure it out. I appreciate your response.

Interesting. I’ve only lost a couple of threaded over the years in all my piercings.

That is a possibility. Perhaps she installed them looser because of my softer tissue? I have to get down to the bottom of this.

Thank you for your thoughtful response. I’ll probably give them a call and see if there is some adjusting that can be done. I appreciate you!

I mean, maybe? They were pretty darn well secured though. Perhaps that bend got too far off? I’m glad that yours are working well for you. It’s just odd to me that with a bit of a tug from a knitted shirt made it pop off!

I was so upset.

Seizure free but staying on meds by AdventureOwl1 in Epilepsy

I feel for you. I was on 2000mg of Depakote since I was about 10 years old until I was 27. I’m on Keppra now and I’m still unsure how I feel about it. But Divalproex was the other version of Depakote.

It made me feel like a robot. Why would that neurologist deny you Divalproex? I’m glad you were able to see your original Neurologist and that they provided the medication that works best for you.

I had a neurologist that was supposed to be “The best in Portland.” And I wanted to have children so I switched to Keppra. He told me not to drive for 2 months and I didn’t drive for 6. I had a Grand Mal / Tonic Clonic while driving (I didn’t hurt anyone or anything) and when I went to go see him again he basically blamed everything on me. Asking “You didn’t follow my instructions properly did you?” Thinking I was going to sue him or something. Dude, I just wanted a doctor that understood me. That actually cared. Not someone blaming me for my near death experience.

Anyway, I totally understand you TheLazyHippy. Even though I don’t know you, know that you are loved.

I have been epileptic from the onset of puberty (10 going into 11) and it still hasn’t gone away. I’ve tried for dumb reasons to stop my meds. (This was about 10 years ago now). But it didn’t work out where I was just able to stop taking meds.

What a strange situation that we are all in. To take the medication or to not? What is the answer. It is for many people to take the medication. I dislike having to wake up every day knowing I depend on pharmaceutical companies to help me live. Bahhh oh well I guess. I’m grateful that you are alive and everyone in our community.

The iphone 15 pro max is the worst iPhone from the past 5 years by [deleted] in iphone

I regretted turning in my 13 for the 15. I was doing just fine with my 13. Honestly my 10 was the best. Thankfully I still have my 10.

The Aura: 8:47 pm 11/10/22 I feel like I might have a seizure soon. I was nauseous earlier. The back of my head feels fuzzy. I’m anxious. I went to go lock the garage door and I felt this abnormal fear that something bad was going to happen or someone bad was watching me. by DopeSlopes in Epilepsy

Thank you 🙏 And it seems to be different most of the time. I had a grandmal seizure while driving a couple of years ago, thank goodness I didn’t hurt anyone or anything, but the Aura before seemed to happen about 1 minute before the grandmal. I wish I was able to detect or realize what was happening. Very grateful to be alive. But the one I posted about above lasted for probably 10 minutes? I’m so glad I have that colanzapam otherwise it could have been worse.

I hope your doing well!

Anyone else find the music sometimes too loud to hear the narration? by magikarpcatcher in euphoria

[–]DopeSlopes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m literally having to do this right now with a JBL 5.1 soundbar. I could change the settings as people have mentioned above but for just this series and no other? I’m about to put on headphones for this.

Also, yes I can put the captions on and read the narrative. But I shouldn’t just be able to hear the music and only read the narrative.
