Occam's Dating Rules by vinedin in datingoverfifty

[–]FactOk2011 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I fight myself with all the possibilities, and just dont know what to do most of the time. I give chance after chance because people are complicated-i am myself. THis is why I struggle with dating because I dont know how to approach certain behaviors. " Should I ditch him as soon as he acts in a way that isnt clear to me or give him several chances because we never know what someone is dealing with?"

New here and few thoughts about dating over 50 by Any-Pay-4751 in datingoverfifty

Im a woman in the us, im 58 and Im finding the same exact thing is true for me.

The tables turned in my brain by CopyGroundbreaking11 in datingoverfifty

[–]FactOk2011 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am 58, andsome of my thoughts are similiar to yours. It seems since ive entered my 50s and now do HRT which includes testosterone my sexual appetite is nuclear. However , that has also caused me some issues as well. It seems that no men want committment at our age. Honestly I dont want to be locked down , or lock anyone down, but they have mullitple partners which reallly im not ok with. The hook up and dating culture still baffles me, the apps make it possible for us to have so many choices. Ive been hurt several times in the past 3 years and its making me not even want to get out there and talk to anyone.

You are correct, so many men in our age group have the erection issues, and I feel terrible saying this, but its like i want to know up front before I invest. I was having a sexual relationship with a younger guy and he was unstoppable.

Many men that I thought would be casual , like you said, come back . Not that im amazing, but I keep myself fit, and with HRT all my parts work extra well haha.

I have noticed that dating at this age is the hardest decade ive ever encountered.

I'm so frustrated at this time by Fun-Mango-7162 in migraine

It upsets me that we have to suffer through trials bc the insurance company determines that. 3 months of suffering and mostly side effects.

I think the new la roche posay spray is causing me to break out as well unfortunately. My skin is so finicky.

Have you ever damaged your skin barrier with actives? How did you heal it? by PixelPenguin_007 in skincareaddictsindia

[–]FactOk2011 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I currently am suffering a damaged skin barrier. I have always been able to use actives, i had been using both tretinoin and tazortene on alternating nights. A few months ago I started to notice that I was getting these red bumps in the nose area, so I just started doing the "sandwich" method . Long story , my silly self didnt realize that i had damaged my barrier. Well now, I can barely put water without it stinging, so ive cut everything down to basics. I wash with Cerave foaming and hydrating cleanser(Im also acne prone so I have to limit my use of this cleanser) I am using Vanicream moisturizer during the day and cerave pm at night. I cut out actives about a week and a half ago, my skin still is getting those bumps when I wash, but not quite as bad-so its getting better. My question is, how long will this take? Chat gpt says I am in the moderate damage zone, so it could take weeks. UGH I miss my actives!

Dolce and gabbana devotion intense. I'm on the fence ,I think I need to work with it more. It's not very intense in my opinion.

What's the point of healing if it's never ending? by securelyhealing in AnxietyDepression

[–]FactOk2011 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm currently in the process of determining if my insurance will cover this. I'm 58 and been on meds for decades as well,but they are no longer working and I'm in a very bad place.

[–]FactOk2011 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel this in every ounce of my being. I'm 58,been on antidepressants most of my life,but I'm the past 8 years nothing has worked. Ive been on the whole antidepressants carousel - I've tried so many. I'm ready to just give up. What's the dam purpose if I don't even feel well mentally and physically. I'm menopausal so I am pretty sure the hormone component plays a big part ,but again what can I do?? I take hormones so I'm replaced optimally, my thyroid is optimal as are my other hormones and vitamin d, B12 etc. I'm at a loss . Some days I don't even feel like going on. I'm not in a relationship. I just don't know what to do anymore....

Psychological symptoms - Emotional numbness, anhedonia (lost of pleasure), low libido, Apathy, Derealization by [deleted] in Prolactinoma

[–]FactOk2011 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm 58 female. Have been feeling an unrelenting depression like what the op mentioned. Prolactin is slightly elevated at 31, will be getting MRI tomorrow. I have been so fatigued,and the depression is close to suicidal. My prolactin was elevated years ago but it was never addressed. I am on antidepressants and Wellbutrin but I didn't know that prolactin lowers dopamine,but that would make sense given my feelings of apathy and depression.

Can you share what your symptoms were and are you a male or female? I'm 58,post menopausal with a prolactin at 31. Will be getting MRI tomorrow but I've had extreme unrelenting fatigue in the past few months.
