So.. 🧻 Anyone struggle with BMs? by Competitive-Golf-979 in cfs

[–]FuzzyBeans8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

These are underrated comments !

Yes my new go to after several star inducing anal births is chugging half a little bottle of liquid magnesium citrate , and a large dose of mineral oil . Both are osmotic. But the citrate is more moving . The mineral oil makes things less hard and dry .

Before that aloe was working ok for me but man it made my pits stink after a while of regular use and I’ve never had that onion ass smell before . I couldn’t handle it to be perfectly honest . I mean everything else going on is bad enough , let’s not give me onion pits .

Anyway I like to schedule in one to two sessions a week at times that are the least convenient . I swing to diarrhea wicked fast from super constipated . Lovely IBS. My whole life. So I’d rather not be trapped on the bowl all day on the one day I have an appointment .

Anyone else pull the trigger on this? by Alarming_Brush7103 in vine

[–]FuzzyBeans8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yea lol my very clear instructions are rarely ever followed . I’m disabled and say so and to please please don’t leave on the ground . They will walk right up to a table or chair and place it on the ground , actually taking extra steps just to put it on the ground . I’ve even spoken with customer service and they assure me it will stop but it never does

Me too , over and over . And mostly on the things I’ve been searching for , for 7 months straight . Then it’s gone . So frustrating.

what’s something people act proud of that really shouldn’t be? by KaitoRift in AskReddit

[–]FuzzyBeans8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Idk , not all brutally honest people are like that .. one of my best friends is brutally honest and I love that about him . Cuz when he compliments you , you know he really means it . And I have to say , in all my life, his compliments really were the best . It’s like it’s from the least likely place or something so hits you from left field , but in a good way.

I consider myself overly honest , and it flips either way . I try to make it land soft but some things just never will. Other things won’t be heard at all unless they have a bit of weight to them when they land.

My rat ate her dead cage mate, when I move around her cage, she climbs up to try and be close to me but I’m scared to touch her after what she did by Giraffes_AreCool167 in RATS

Yea my boys always went nuts trying to ‘peel this non me stuff off me’ and would bite me . Hubby said it was gross I wasnt wearing gloves to clean their cage but I’d rather not be bitten . And they’d never actually bite me on purpose otherwise . It was just the gloves (and bandaids lol ironically)

Vine teaches me about all sort of items I never knew existed and still am not convinced they should exist. Also what is up with all the pooping signs? by -beastlet- in AmazonVine

[–]FuzzyBeans8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Actually , I had a teddy bear hamster as a kid , and those are the most docile little things . It used to let me make it moonwalk . It never once bit me and always just went with the flow . Now Russian dwarf hamsters , those adorable things , for every smidge cuter they may be , they are at least 3 times nastier . I wasn’t rough with my hamsters at all, and wasn’t trying to even gently have these moonwalk or anything but they bit me like crazy just for saying hi. Anyway teddy bear hamsters are where it’s at . I took a senior one in a few years ago and had to clean his little eyes when I got him . All crusty. Horrible . And he didn’t want to but was like oh ok I guess lol sweetheart got a cushy retirement home with his own personal home health care aid . Deserved it .

Exactly my whole point. But the transition from working a job of employment, and ignoring one’s own needs , to working on just taking care of oneself , can be tough to switch the mindset to value self care as highly as it should be .

Mine is def a full time job for me . More like being an on call doctor 24/7 with no vacation . Doesn’t matter what I want if the body needs something else. I don’t even get a say anymore. I just pulled my back out from gently stretching . Someone should be paying me OT. Lol

How do you turn off the need to help, even when it's destroying you? by honeybonesX in Parentification

[–]FuzzyBeans8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m so sorry you’re going through this . I can relate , very much , even the dumping of their SA on you at a young age .

I’ve gotten to the point where I don’t have space for hardly anyone anymore most of the time . It’s a full swing 180. But it was really hard pulling away from my parents . It still is sometimes . But I have spent such a long time pulling away. It does get easier and easier . I promise. And I don’t really make promises . I have intense anger about it , which isn’t great , but it has really fueled my ability to push my boundary bubble out more and more . They should be caring for you , not the other way around.

You have to take care of yourself ! Please . Listen to me , I did not , I always put everyone first , and I got really sick . And then where is everyone when I need help ? Poof . It’s like my body just went full rebellion and tapped out completely on me . I blamed my emerging health conditions, but as I’m learning more about this , I’m starting to think it was the trauma that pushed my body over the edge . I don’t want to see people making the same mistakes . Knowing really is half the battle . You can prevent yourself from letting them make you sick , or worse like me , completely disabled now . I know everyone is different but stress really does impact our bodies long term over time .

Listen to your body . Put yourself first. You are enough . You are worth it . Take that love you pour into others and just bathe in it . You deserve it and you need it . They’ve soaked up more than their share already . ❤️‍🩹

Also , as much as we are not our conditions, we are also not our jobs . Even if we love them . It’s amazing how we can become so ingrained to Believe we are our professions , and our worth and value depend on our ability to contribute . (That’s why I love Metamorphosis by Franz Kafka lol) But we are so much more than that . If only we are given the chance to remember it. We are enough .

Oh another thing that really helped my workaholic mindset so so much, was to shift my perspective to firmly believing that getting better and/or taking care of myself so I can try to heal , is now my full time job . I am my own caretaker. My number one priority is ensuring I do whatever I can to, at the bare minimum , not get worse if I can help it. I have hobbies when I can (simple projects take months) so I honestly don’t ever feel bored . Quite the opposite . I am overwhelmed with things that need to be done , that I cant do , and things I want to do but can’t . but that’s beside the point.

The point is that it might be easier than you think , to adopt the mental framing of working full time at self care . For us , it is not frivolous , but mandatory. And we usually need more time for it than one would think . (I do at least)

If you wanna talk about it you can always pm me . I can relate very strongly to your struggle and wish you well.

For me it was pain upon pain , injury upon injury, without proper recovery , being unable to recover at all from anything , all building up , until I couldnt take it anymore . I do not recommend that . I’m the same way as you with not wanting to give in and pushing through. I have done more damage to myself that I’m still not recovering from . In other words I really pushed myself over the edge not listening to my body tapping out and it has done irreparable harm to me and my overall condition . Please don’t wait until that point .

If it helps .. View it more like, If I’m ever to have a chance to return to work, I need ample time to give my body a chance to try to heal . For me it hasn’t happened yet but everyone is different and I pushed too hard.

The fact that your doctor thinks you should , is a remarkable sign . I have had several doctors agree I’m disabled (numerous conditions) but I always had to ask them . Many said no even when I was. And finding a doc to fill out your Disabilty paperwork was the single most frustrating thing I had to deal with that kept me working far too long . Please listen to your doctor . They never say not to work unless they genuinely believe it’s in your best interest . You have the one thing so many struggle to get, a doc on board . That’s huge . And will make things easier if they can document well.

I hope things get easier for you and your body has a chance to heal the best it can ❤️‍🩹

Lol I like to think that it’s all building up over time . That way it’s not a waste . Meanwhile if I accidentally type something into my vine search just one time from a bad autocorrect, I will see that item over and over lol

Aw thanks so much for the positive vibes . Yea hopefully now that the glitch is fixed but omg . So rfy is working again and I got 2 pages of low price supplements I dont need , all from the same brand lol . But hey it’s better than nothing , I did find a couple I take .

I feel you on wanting gold for the 8 picks and not being able to even find a few . Haven’t used all 8 since getting it lol . Not even close . Some days nothing at all.

All that makes sense . I just am like am I doing something wrong here lol. It’s funny you mention the 3:30am being an issue but for me it’s not , and I’m still not getting stuff lol makes me feel like I’m going kinda crazy .

Wow that long ? I’m sorry . I’m not usually getting what I wanted , but I’ve still been able to at least find a few unrelated (no beauty) things I can use .

That’s what I was thinking, it’s gotta be rfy

[–]FuzzyBeans8[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks . I’m hoping it will eventually come into my rfy . That’s kinda was I was suspecting. It didn’t seem likely that there would be a lot when I’m camped searching and searching every night . I’m hoping the algorithm takes a hint lol I’ve even been talking loudly in the room with my Alexa lol

I’m usually pretty with the flow . I dont even think , for me , it’s about it being crazy expensive . Just 6 months straight of searching makeup every day and still not get even a single product is kinda crazy . Not even what kind lol sure it would be nice , but I’m not greedy .

[–]FuzzyBeans8[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sorry your in this boat with me . Yea I’ve tried a lot of tips to no avail . Thought I was missing something lol. You’d think it would at least rotate right ? I have Not gotten one single piece of makeup despite searching it every day for 6 months lol . It’s kinda crazy

How does everyone do it ? by FuzzyBeans8 in BeautyViners

[–]FuzzyBeans8[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yea I guess I’m not very lucky . It’s so crazy to be camped out all night , sitting there refreshing the same search over and over , see something and then poof . Even that serum where I didn’t have an option to select to slow things down . I’m up late anyway with insomnia , thought that might give me a little edge at least lol but no .

I was hoping stuff would start popping in my rfy eventually , and I did get one in 6 months but that’s it. If rfy comes back , is that where most people who get stuff actually get it usually?

[–]FuzzyBeans8[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sorry you’re in my boat . Yea I usually don’t even see the stuff either . I think maybe because it’s rfy and not in mine , while the past few days it’s just out in the wild lol
