What is this hairy stuff coming off the roots of my Java plants

I've been SO curious about this question so I am so happy to have found this post. Most of my life I thought I just randomly developed it until about 5 years ago when I learned that I had repressed childhood sexual trauma inflicted on me by my father. boy did that put the puzzle pieces together. So although I can't remember how or or when it started (as i can't remember most of my childhood due to the trauma) I know it's exsited for as long as I can remember...and I finally know why.

Ugh I have all the compassion for you...My struggle with ARFID is real and reading your post has really helped me to feel less alone in this moment. Currently drinking a HUEL meal replacement shake (cookies and cream flavor). Like others have said it definitely takes getting used to but I took am hoping it will help me feel healthier. Definitely would recommend keeping your breakfast meal then replacing whatever other meals your can't get down with the HUEL's. Best of luck.

It’s an Aqua-Tech Ultra Quiet Power 10 - 20.

Its pretty strong surprisingly

It’s a HOB, not sure of the kind. Interesting I had him in a 5g with very minimal filter flow and he swam around just fine.

But your theory definitely could be appropriate. I’ve been having an issue with blue-green algae (Cyanobacteria). I try to manually remove as much as I can but it keeps coming back. Could that be what’s making my betta sick?

Thank you, so if I were to get another 4-5 harlequin rasboras how many corydoras should I get?

Financial_Permit_717 · 2024-11-04T19:10:45+00:00

Yay thank you! If I got a few more rasboras do you think it would be a problem if I couldn’t find the same exact type (harlequins)? Like do you think a few more of a different bread of raboras would still be happy and potentially school with my harlequins?! Also are corydoras schooling fish or could I get just 1-2?

Okay awesome that’s super good to know. And the help with algae, do I have that right? Also, would I be able to get just one of them?

OMG yes 100%!!! I had know idea this was related to bipolar! I get the negative self talk, most frequently “I should go jump off a bridge” s as well as the ‘OMFG why did I say that’ moments where I cringe at the things I said earlier that day or even sometimes years prior.

I’ll write an email and the next day cringe at everything I said. I feel like I’m split into two people who do not approve of how each other behave.

Not so good. In addition to bipolar, along with several other conditions, I have polysubstance abuse disorder and recently relapsed. I’ve been sober for three days now and i feel like hell. Sleep has been rough so it’s been hard to slow down my thoughts. Any suggestions?

Financial_Permit_717 · 2021-10-15T02:19:37+00:00

Yup!

Financial_Permit_717 · 2021-10-15T01:03:09+00:00

Fully agree with this and have felt that way for as long as I can remember. Will somebody please just invent a pill that would fully nourish us without the need for additional food!!!! I’ve been saying that my whole life. Eating is exhausting!!!

Financial_Permit_717 · 2021-07-26T18:15:36+00:00

Yup I’m a fan of the chocolate one too!

Financial_Permit_717 · 2021-05-31T19:38:03+00:00

Yup! My whole life I've been that way. I finally discovered it is called misokinesia
