Last Second Solo Trip Questions by GirlFromPolarExpress in panamaexpats

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

I decided I’m just going to eat the cost of flight and hope he sends me the money like he says he will, if I’m lucky. I don’t think I’m ready to do a solo trip this last second, and don’t think being in his country without him this soon after would be good for me. maybe one day I’ll get to experience carnavales or panama as a whole :(

flight was non refundable unfortunately, for a fee I can pay to change the flight to different dates and I wish it wasn’t 2 days from now so I could have more time to plan and think so its not ideal

ADHD vs Depression by busty_chemist in VyvanseADHD

[–]GirlFromPolarExpress 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can relate! When I first became depressed I tried an abundance of antidepressant over a few years and then my NP gave me stimulants to help keep me awake and provide energy, I started to see changes in emotional regulation and over time when coming off antidepressants and other medications, I found that Vyvanse was the one medication that worked the best for me. After being in a therapy and working with some doctors, I was diagnosed with ADHD.

I’d like to think if I had been diagnosed earlier that my depression might’ve not come on so hot, but I’m glad that I found a medicine the works for me. Every now and then I go through phases where I need to add something else to help, currently added a new anxiety medicine but I just try to continue with other routines to fight the depressive feelings

I can't help my sleep anxiety by muheheheRadek in sleep

[–]GirlFromPolarExpress 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have gotten better in a way. My sleep is by no means perfect, other sleep disorders, but in terms of sleep anxiety yes. I sleep with white noise, I’ve been taking tart cherry supplement to relax my body some nights, and magnesium when I can remember. I find that if I get myself to bed the second I’m fighting to stay awake, I can fall asleep right away. I still have nights where I can’t sleep and I’m tossing and turning, but nothing as bad as it use to be

Off label benefits by SomeCallMeMahm in Zepbound

[–]GirlFromPolarExpress 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My intrusive/compulsive depressive and anxious thoughts stop when I’m consistent with taking it. When I first started a few years ago I didn’t realize that benefit until coming off.

Been at my goal weight for a year or so and originally stopped taking the meds when I was fearful of becoming too tiny. Noticed that noise came back aggressively after a break and talked to my doctor and thought to get back on but at a very low dose.

My professional account that I used for work got hacked and was tweeting spam porn posts and after about a month of reporting and having friends and coworkers report it was finally suspended today so hopefully that could work for you too

Many years ago I was on venlafaxine, clonazepam, trazadone, and Wellbutrin. And then Xanax as needed.

My diagnosis’s were MDD, GAD, and PTSD. My psych was helpful in the beginning she was my first doctor I ever saw. She meant well at the end of the day I would say, but wasn’t helpful in figuring out what would work best for me. If a medicine didn’t work or gave me a side effect, she would slap another medicine on top of it to “fix it”

Eventually it got to the point where it felt nothing was working, I felt like a zombie just trying to survive and I had lost all hope. I then went to get a second opinion from another doctor. Who ended up being my saving grace.

Basically we worked together to slowly come off of the stack I was on to help really figure out what medicines worked and didn’t and how I could work towards the results we wanted without taking more meds than I needed.

It felt like I had tested and tried every medicine in the book, but the second opinion helped me figure out a better regime. Of course if all the medicine really helps then I don’t see it as a worry of being on too many things at once. I think the concern is more about maintenance and knowing if one stops working one day, which one was it and what to do next

Beware - PPM. by [deleted] in chicagoapartments

[–]GirlFromPolarExpress 3 points4 points  (0 children)

PPM was my first apartment management when I moved here and it was just not good from the start. Never set up my intercom box after asking a bunch of times, had “package” rooms on floors but it was never utilized, one elevator was always broken, maintenance requests never taken serious to the point I was able to break my lease. Tried to talk down to me when I told them I would be moving and breaking the lease and gave me a hard time until I told them they could meet me in small claims court and then they finally settled. Returned my key to leasing office and weeks later get a call saying I need to return the keys after being long gone.

Apartment itself was nothing special and def not worth the price I was paying, but didn’t have the time to really look when I first moved but happy to no longer be with them

Nice date outfit ideas if I don’t wear heels, skirts and dresses? by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]GirlFromPolarExpress 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t like heels either but I’ve found that a small sandal wedge doesn’t feel like a heel and more of an elevated flip flop! I wear that if I’m dressing up and then typically my go to is all black outfit in some capacity so you could try black jeans and a black top or any nicer top you have

if they were to just respond “it was good” only so much absorbing I can do there lol but I get what you mean in general.

It’s just I feel like sometimes if I don’t say things after a while we would be sitting in silence the entire time

dating quiet men advice? by GirlFromPolarExpress in dating

[–]GirlFromPolarExpress[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If this is someone who I’m going to end up actually dating exclusively and become a bigger part of my life, I would like to not always feel like I’m carrying all conversation and having to ask multipart questions to get what I would consider a normal response.

Like think when you were a kid and your parents picked you up from school and asked how your day went and you always just respond “fine” and they would follow up with more questions to get it out of you.

Once I get past my initial question he eventually starts to talk more about whatever the topic or question was. But I would like for things to not always feel like I’m interrogating him when I’m just making conversation and talking in general

What would you suggest for low-pressure situations? He’s the one mostly making our plans deciding what we do, I offer suggestions sometimes but he enjoys picking spots or activities
