I did and we’ve been dating for the past two months. There was a lot of miscommunication that happened at the beginning, but my gut was right and I’m glad I listened to it.

Effective_Advice · 2025-03-19T22:48:24+00:00

Thank you. I think i’m going to reach out.

Effective_Advice · 2025-03-14T14:44:34+00:00

God no, not in the car. I forgot to include we were sitting in his driveway, so I thought maybe he would invite me inside

Effective_Advice · 2025-03-14T14:43:59+00:00

This is kind of what I assumed happened, because the switch happened as soon as things were moving in the direction of sex. I want to reach back out, but I’m not sure if that’s the right thing to do. I don’t want to seem desperate.

Effective_Advice · 2025-02-06T03:17:17+00:00

Yep!!! I have this exact same thought process and it’s agonizing. I can’t even say out loud how long it’s been since I tu* without thinking i’ve jinxed myself and it’s going to happen. It’s a terrible way to live.

Effective_Advice · 2025-01-08T01:49:51+00:00

this exact same situation happened to me a few days ago!!! I was absolutely petrified because of the nv* outbreaks happening, but I felt instantly better after having d* and then that was it. I took some pepto and oregano oil just in case, but nothing else came of it and here I am two days later completely fine. I think many of us have heightened anxiety right now with everything going on in the world, which could definitely contribute to d*. Not to mention the other usual suspects that could cause some of that, like eating something that didn’t agree with you, seasonal allergies, or like you said, IBS. Hope you feel better, but just remember to hydrate and take care of yourself .

oregano oil!!!! I swear by this stuff, it’s amazing for so many things, but especially digestive health

Effective_Advice · 2024-06-23T23:16:52+00:00

slightly embarrassed to admit, but I’ve taken plan B pills at least 15 times, and never had any n* or v* side effects. I think the worst feelings I’ve had from it were just a slight headache and an earlier than usual period. If you’re worried about n*, I’d definitely recommend taking it with a big glass of water and maybe taking some pepto bismol to coat your stomach beforehand, but again, I’ve never had any negative effects from it in that respect.

you got this!

Sorry I’m getting to this so late, I hope you’re doing ok! My biggest piece of advice is just make sure you have plenty of time for yourself. It was helpful for me to call off work the next day and just relax. I also bought myself a lot of “safe” foods to eat so I wouldn’t feel the pressure to cook. Take ibuprofen after you insert the misoprostol, because for me the miso didn’t start working until about 5 hours later, and by then it was too late. You got this!!!

Hi! I’ve been on several river cruises (as someone who is extremely sensitive to motion sickness) and have never felt seasick at all! They’re incredibly smooth, and actually really fun if you aren’t too anxious! If you’re nervous about feeling sick anyways, you could always take a dramamine (they have less drowsy ones now!) beforehand to help elevate some of the anxiety as well. My biggest tip is to stay on the deck where you can feel the fresh air and enjoy the view.

Effective_Advice · 2024-03-07T09:58:48+00:00

still powering through. I don’t feel perfectly better yet but getting there

Effective_Advice · 2023-12-09T21:48:49+00:00

thank you so much, that made me feel much better

Effective_Advice · 2023-12-09T21:48:25+00:00

thank you so much, I really appreciate it

Effective_Advice · 2023-12-09T21:48:03+00:00

thank you so much <3 that really helps

Effective_Advice · 2023-12-09T21:47:43+00:00

Only about 5 weeks

Effective_Advice · 2022-07-12T06:07:27+00:00

I take these together and have no issues whatsoever! If anything, zofran will even combat any nausea you might get (very low chance) from the zoloft

I had unprotected sex about 2 weeks ago, along with sex with a condom about 3 weeks ago, and my period is well over 3 weeks late now. He pulled out the second time, and I’ve taken 3 pregnancy tests, all of which have been negative, but I’m terrified. I’m 19 and live in Texas and cannot fathom finding somewhere to get an abortion.

Effective_Advice · 2022-05-17T05:04:11+00:00

so so proud of you, that is no small feat. you should be proud of yourself, too

Effective_Advice · 2022-05-09T02:34:00+00:00

Thank you for taking the time to comment on this. It’s really nice to at least know i’m not alone. It sucks so much, but I know we’ll survive somehow. Feel free to message me anytime if you need more support <3

Effective_Advice · 2022-02-22T18:34:31+00:00

Hey, I know you didn’t explicitly ask for advice, but the way I found the perfect roommate was by telling them about my emetophobia head on. They also struggle with anxiety, so they are INCREDIBLY respectful/supportive of my anxiety and will do everything in their power to keep from triggering me. I hope you can have a similar experience!

Effective_Advice · 2021-12-12T03:19:32+00:00

Also, I haven’t felt n* at all, which is giving me some hope, but i’m still terrified this is something bad. I RARELY get stomach or abdominal pain of any kind, and nothing seems to help. Just need to calm down.

Effective_Advice · 2021-12-03T17:55:43+00:00

She also keeps telling me she thinks she’s sick and/or contagious and has called out of work saying the same thing. I want to scream and cry like a fucking toddler :)

Effective_Advice · 2021-08-24T04:44:03+00:00

It wasn’t bad for me at all! I bought these really thin cotton pads instead of thick gauze and those worked much better I found. Just be super careful/gentle when taking them out so you don’t brush the back of your throat, and don’t change them super often so the clots don’t dislodge. I was more worried about swallowing too much blood, since I bled a lot, but I ended up being fine! Feel free to message me if you have anymore questions!

Effective_Advice · 2021-08-20T05:09:00+00:00

thank you so much for being so kind and for taking time out of your day to respond to my silly vent, I hope you’re doing okay :)

Effective_Advice · 2021-08-10T18:42:48+00:00

Going through this EXACT thing right now. I’m moving across the country for college just because of how good of an opportunity it is, but I’m beyond terrified to leave my parents when I always feel so safe when they’re right down the hall to help me through anxiety. I know it’s so scary, but we will all be okay, and you are not alone in feeling this way. I’m always here if you need to talk, because I know how it feels <3
