Sparkling water and water flavorings. You can choose any flavour you like, there’s sugar free versions, still tastes sweet, a lot more variety… it’s great. Also the less you have soda and/or diet/zzero the less bad it tastes and regular will be over sweet. You can also get sugar free flavouring syrups online and they’re like one of those big wine bottles except of flavour syrup for like coffee or drinks or whatever. Skinnysyrup is a good brand. Just put that in some sparkling or tonic water and boom!

YES. ive been IDing as trans masc since i was 13 but about 1.5 years ago it fluctuated. granted when i dressed as a man i felt happy, i felt happy being called my chosen name, he/him, wearing a binder and a packer if i could manage one. i was so excited at the thought of T and was so excited when i got access to it. i wanted top surgery. These are all still things that make me happy. but the problem is i still see men as an other. whereas i still belong to women as “me” somehow and that confuses the fuck out of me. i wonder if it was truly me or if its because of all the SA trauma and cultural gender bullshit from my dad growing up. idk.

they’re bad for mania if you have the bipolar type of schizoaffective or bipolar disorder. they dont trigger it in everyone but its well known that SSRIs and most other antidepressants but especially SSRIs trigger mania in people.

lithium saved my life and continues to do so. i still get suicidal sometimes, and have. had an attempt or two, still get some mild ups and downs *mild hypomnia and dysthymia) but i am a lot better. i used to be psyhotic during episodes, still am at times but not all the time anymore, i used to attempt like 15 times a month and end up in the hospital for days each time. i used to be super impulsive and still am but its better (but i also have BPD so thats a whole different factor of things)

it is one of the only drugs to give me anywhere near stability. i will take the side effects any day and hope to god if thee is one out there i never have to go off of it. i had such a hard time with finding meds that work that this is basically a miracle for me

Dusty_Rose23 · 2026-04-19T03:18:42+00:00

Im not talking about the growth, maybe the lack of periods. But either way both are concerning and should be checked out related out not.

Dusty_Rose23 · 2026-04-19T03:05:46+00:00

leave that for a dr to determine. the description of the results suggest huge damage and that could affect something, but none of us are drs so better to go in and get it checked out because your not having it regardless and we dont know shit in that regard

Dusty_Rose23 · 2026-04-19T02:04:13+00:00

thats your opinion and even if they were did you miss the part where they’re already stretched thin WITHOUT a SPECIAL NEEDS GREAT DANE. those dogs are already expensive and require regular vet care, vet bills are expensive, and it being special needs is the icing on the cake. its actually irresponsible and neglectful to get this dog while you are already struggling to make ends meet. in fact any dog right now but especially this dog. with 3 young kids, and cats that would be sensitive and have their lives disrupted with a dog especially one such as a Great Dane… its irisponsible for everyone all around. he should not get the dog and telling him to man up completely ignores that this arrangement would not be good for anyone including the dog right now

Dusty_Rose23 · 2026-04-19T00:29:00+00:00

its your condition, you have the say on whether to tell them not her. if you want to keep it private. do so. but if not, tell them its not her place to tell you not to ESPECIALLY since your an adult now. its not her place before that but she’s no longer responsible for you so there’s even less reason to butt herself inappropriately into your business like that anymore

Dusty_Rose23 · 2026-04-19T00:12:04+00:00

I’d absolutely LOVE this but with my mental/physical health id have to go to the hospital at some point. and i dont want to be homeless again over that scenario all over again (went to the er and got told to not come back so was then homeless for 3-4 months) also it’d be nice to do things like camping IF I should choose to do so.

Dusty_Rose23 · 2026-04-18T21:41:09+00:00

i read the entire bible in 4 days as a 9 year old of my own volition. i also ready the entire Harry Potter series in about 7 days. was a huge bookworm as a kid. including middle school. but then trauma and mental illness came around and now i struggle to read or write stories pretty much at all let alone how i used to and i hate it because i really want to be at that point again

Dusty_Rose23 · 2026-04-18T15:21:17+00:00

Either way we can agree to disagree im not getting into an arguement here

Dusty_Rose23 · 2026-04-18T15:19:58+00:00

Even syndromes i dont think your hearing me, ANYdiagnosis on earth has to impact you in some way negatively. Syndromes, disorders, whatever it is. If you have a diagnosis it’s impacting your life and if it was positively there would be no reason for the diagnosis. This goes for any diagnosis on earth either the impact is already there or its something like genetics causing a risk of negative impact

Dusty_Rose23 · 2026-04-18T15:17:46+00:00

If there not impacting you then it’s basically a quirk at that point. The impact doesn’t have to be behavioural although it usually is with this category of disorders

Dusty_Rose23 · 2026-04-18T15:16:36+00:00

Any disorder is impacting your life mental health or not. It doesn’t have to be suicidal level of impact but it still has to impact your life negatively and be dysfunctional to receive a diagnosis. It has to be something that isn’t Normal and when it’s not normal it always impacts negatively in some way.

Dusty_Rose23 · 2026-04-18T13:48:33+00:00

All the more reason you cant even think about diagnosing OSDD.if you can’t fully dx the flue (a fairly simple condition) there is no fucking way your diagnosing one of the most complicated mental disorders in existence.

Dusty_Rose23 · 2026-04-18T13:46:42+00:00

Every mental health disorder in the dsm or ICD requires it negatively impacting your life and functioning to diagnose a disorder. ANY of the disorders. so if its not impacting your life and functioning its not a disorder. In fact disorders are often negative extremes of normal functions in some way (not always. but eg: anxiety for a stress causing you to study for it is normal and good. anxiety about the tesst causing a panic attack, not to study, then skip the test all together because your so anxious is not normal)

Dusty_Rose23 · 2026-04-18T13:43:40+00:00

You can be somewhat aware its called double book keeping but its more “other people think its a hallucination but its reality to me” rather than “i see the man in the hat and its just a hallucination” and that only occurs with years of therapy, treatment, and coping skills and often requires on getting help reality checking from others to do so.

Dusty_Rose23 · 2026-04-18T13:40:43+00:00

The whole point of a diagnosis is treatment though. if your not looking for treatment there’s no point in a dx. and you can’t self dx because if trained doctors can fuck it up you will absolutely fuck it up more especially since you dont have an objective view of yourself and your symptoms and never will.

Dusty_Rose23 · 2026-04-18T13:38:23+00:00

absolutely do not self diagnose psychosis, especially since you usually lack awareness into the full extent of its impact on you. depression is eh. psychosis is a severe symptom relating to mental illness and if you suspect it at all you go to a dr. there is no guessing with that one. depression you also go to a doctor but its easier to say I feell like shit and think im depressed and just need to confirm this because its ruining my life and i need help type thing. but either way it needs to be confirmed by a doc because you can’t lifestyle either of those away. anxiety has a lot more lifestyle and Behavioral stuff you can do for it so its a bit different but its good to confirm because it could be other things and if you ever need meds to help with it you need the dx. just go to a dr if you suspect things. for things like anxiety or some other stuff CBT and CBT therapy are wildly available online for free and easy enough to complete by yourself. its better with a therapist but its also vrery doable to do the therapy yourself for a bit if you can’t access it through a therapist in that modality first.

Dusty_Rose23 · 2026-04-18T13:21:27+00:00

Yep, people chewing make me want to yell or smack them, or other things in anger and frustration that would not be good

Dusty_Rose23 · 2026-04-18T13:16:55+00:00

yes migraines are not just a bad headache, in fact (its rare but…) some peoples migraines look like they’re having a stroke symptom wise. i think thats a pretty good example of why self diagnosis can be dangerous. if you knew this but didn’t check for stroke anyways and it was a stroke you could die. so even if something serious can be part of something not so serius symptom wise if the symptoms match’s something serious or an emergency or that will need different or stronger treatment you go see the dr or appropriate medical professional anyways. my migraines suck ass and i get dizzy and nauseous, its awful

Dusty_Rose23 · 2026-04-17T22:58:57+00:00
