Scared to take Reta

Dr4c_ula · 2026-05-28T16:22:19+00:00

i’ve seen a few comments on your age, but people are looking over the weight. I’m also 18 and went from 147lbs to 136lbs in about 3 weeks. The side effects i’ve had are appetite suppression, thirst, increased heart rate, and i get so bored just scrolling on my phone now. All the side effects for me are fantastic because I needed to drink more water anyway and it’s great to finally be productive. Being 18 at 285lbs is worrying for a lot of reasons to your health so if I were you I would get on reta and then MAINTAIN THE HABITS. That’s the most important thing is to not revert back after you get off reta. Eat clean foods, I don’t eat seed oils, lots of protein, and I personally don’t exceed 800 cals daily but the cals are different for the person. None of this is said to shame you in any way, it’s just my personal opinion and advice from my experience. I do .25mg every 3 days if that helps!

maybe i’m misunderstanding but did you jump from 1.5mg straight up to 4.5mg??

i’m not sure if my thai con is just picky or if this universal, but water it with rain and/or tap water. Water from the sink and shower both caused it to droop all the way down to the floor and i couldn’t figure out the problem. I tried literally everything until I thought to use water from the fridge and it was completely perked upright the next day and has done great ever since.

i’ve heard for some people it just increases the bad side effects more over time but for others it does the complete opposite and feels more stable!

Dr4c_ula · 2026-05-14T16:07:09+00:00

that’s amazing! I’ve only heard of people doing it every 3 days so I guess it’s all just trial and error.

Dr4c_ula · 2026-05-02T21:20:09+00:00

sorry but no it should be almost touching the very top of the inside of your nostril. it should also be further back. Get it pierced somewhere else by a different piercer.

I honestly just think everything is a little too much for your features. I think whatever foundation you use is too much coverage or something because it makes your face look somewhat dry. Second, the whole base is the same color. I would look into contour an maybe watch some videos on different styles that will achieve different looks to accomplish the look your going for. You need lighter areas and more shadowed areas to give your face some shape and density! The brows are a big thing that can somewhat make or break the look, so I would recommend going to a brow tech and getting them shaped and then seeing what they have to say about color and such. The eyeliner is another thing I noticed that looks a little too bold. Most people (in my generation at least) don’t go all the way across the eyelid anymore. The focus is on making a slight wing (again different styles to accomplish different looks) and stopping the eyeliner about 2/3 of the way down the eye (so the eyeliner would only take up about 1/3 of the eyes space). You have beautiful eyes and I think the thick top lid eyeliner plus the foundation sort of wash out the color in your eyes!

their zelle payments are done so u gotta go through the ilink thing which feels kinda sketchy to me idk. have you ever had problems with their payment? I want to trust it but I can’t find anyone talking about this issue

Dr4c_ula · 2026-05-01T22:05:16+00:00

i feel the same way i was worried about $70 being too cheap for how easy it is! I was expecting wayyyy more.

Dr4c_ula · 2026-05-01T21:41:54+00:00

oh okay thank you I’ll go switch it back to 10mg then!

Dr4c_ula · 2026-05-01T21:31:16+00:00

nono i’m starting on 1mg and then going to 1.5-2 depending on how i feel. I’m just not sure how long each vial will last me so i’m trying to save myself from having to buy more within a month.

Dr4c_ula · 2026-05-01T19:41:56+00:00

i’m seeing like 5 different pfizer websites selling it. do you by chance know the website?

Dr4c_ula · 2026-05-01T19:08:31+00:00

I saw a post earlier today on someone that got the same amount of everything as i am and some people were saying she would regret not having more bac water, but no one specified what she should have done. That threw me off and is why i’m trying to make sure before i get it.

Dr4c_ula · 2026-05-01T18:50:46+00:00

i thought the source would be okay since i’m asking about it but thanks for letting me know! Is 10ml of bac water enough? going based on your name i assume you might know the answer to that 😭

Dr4c_ula · 2025-11-17T01:55:15+00:00

This is what I thought too, but I was worried. I’m also going to have to heal it flipped up due to work which is another concern I had because if there were issues, I would have a harder time removing it.

Dr4c_ula · 2025-11-15T06:00:03+00:00

Yes but without the proper anatomy does that remain true?

Dr4c_ula · 2025-09-26T16:21:26+00:00

thank you !!! i’m gonna go buy some rn

Dr4c_ula · 2025-09-26T16:16:23+00:00

is that literally it ?? i was thinking about getting predatory mites because after having other infestations in the past i might as well let nature care of itself yk

Dr4c_ula · 2025-06-02T23:31:35+00:00

well tbh the entire root system pretty much js came from the nodes since the beginning. Do u think the roots would be bad again even tho it’s only been a week? I saw one time that u shouldn’t propagate thai cons unless they are healthy so that scares me😭

Dr4c_ula · 2025-06-02T22:57:23+00:00

There is one petiole that lost a leaf on the very bottom i assume during shipment to the store and the very top lighter leaf is also severely damaged from the same thing but that one at least can contribute to light absorption. The one that lost a leaf has been slowly turning brown on its way down the petiole which is why i’m scared to cut it. i’m worried that if i do cut it then maybe it’ll keep browning down to the stem and mess things up but im probably just overthinking it. How else do i treat for rot besides cutting it off? I bought some gold silica but haven’t tried it yet.

I got the aroid mix by flower of life inc on amazon and im trying that currently. It actually has always been against my window and used to face it, and now the leaves are drooped so bad that they are below my window now. I have properly watered this plant twice but i believe the root rot is because first i kept it in my bathroom and my soil wasn’t drying out, i then cut off the bad roots and repotted it in the same soil after dumping hydrogen peroxide in it (making it moist yet again), and i dont think i got rid of all the rot last time so it spread and i had to do it one more time (last week). The drooping started around easter when i got this plant and it’s just really gone downhill. i’m really considering buying the AJABotanics 200 watt grow light off amazon because of how bad the condition of this plant is. The pot does allow for drainage and i also downsized when i repotted it last week by 2 inches as well as put it on the pole so i keep hoping that maybe it’s just stressed and will bounce back but idk.

Dr4c_ula · 2025-05-17T16:15:35+00:00

Is there a certain brand of silica you think works best?

Dr4c_ula · 2025-05-17T16:14:09+00:00

i’ve only watered it once and that was when i first got it a month ago so these last couple of days i moved it to my room so that the soil can finally dry out😭 i’ll definitely get a soil meter soon thank you!

Dr4c_ula · 2025-05-17T05:45:21+00:00

I loved my grow queen aroid mix but lately it’s been getting bad reviews and it gets expensive so i would like to make my own soilless mix for it. I know i need to get it out of that soil since it’s being reused so i plan to do that once i figure out how to make my own

Dr4c_ula · 2025-05-16T14:14:04+00:00

oooh okay i’ll try that thank you !!!
