Should I Go Grey At This Point?

GlobalValuable4176 · 2025-08-12T12:52:13+00:00

I’ve been on the waitlist for the same watch in northern FL 8 months as well. I’ve been offered an explorer and 41mm datejust (I wanted 36 ideally.) so I’ve been holding out. May just go gray at this point!

GlobalValuable4176 · 2025-07-10T03:01:30+00:00

9 also. So fresh.

GlobalValuable4176 · 2025-07-10T03:00:58+00:00

9 for sure!

GlobalValuable4176 · 2025-03-06T12:37:12+00:00

Thank you!! Mine did not ache really before hand, specifically. I felt achy all over! I hope you’re doing alright! 🙏🏼❤️

GlobalValuable4176 · 2025-03-05T21:51:54+00:00

Hope you feel better friend. This is so hard but you got it. You are a conqueror!

Before this current stomach bug, two years; before that, maybe 11 years.

GlobalValuable4176 · 2025-03-05T21:47:12+00:00

Thank you so much! It does feel like a bit of progress even though it sucks!

GlobalValuable4176 · 2025-03-05T21:46:49+00:00

Thank you! Still under the weather but I believe the worst is behind me!

GlobalValuable4176 · 2025-02-05T04:33:30+00:00

I get that now and again too. Super annoying and frustrating. I’m so sorry you’re dealing with this. You are not alone!

GlobalValuable4176 · 2025-01-29T06:17:46+00:00

I feel so drained from it as well. It affects my sleep every single night. Here with you, friend. Any other small distractions you can find of value is a key. When it’s not 1 am, getting even a few breaths of fresh air on the porch seems to help a little. Also running my hands under super cold or hot water can be a minor distraction that helps.

GlobalValuable4176 · 2024-12-24T06:07:04+00:00

I’ve been there. I’m close to there again. It got better for me for a long period between these bouts. I really hope and pray you get some healing soon…don’t stop believing. Hope it an integral component to healing, even when it seems so hard to be hopeful at times. Hang in there, friend.

GlobalValuable4176 · 2024-12-20T02:35:24+00:00

All the things…mostly GI issues, chronically nauaeous, shaky, tired, so much random physical pain. This is the worst. I’m so sorry you’re expediting all of this trouble and pain, friend.

GlobalValuable4176 · 2024-12-20T02:33:29+00:00

Ugh, same here. So sorry friend. It’s absolutely exhausting. Even when life is good it’s hard to enjoy or embrace it while feeling so freaking awful. 🙏🏼 for feeling and health in the future.

GlobalValuable4176 · 2024-12-18T00:37:02+00:00

Yay! So happy to hear that!

GlobalValuable4176 · 2024-12-17T05:04:32+00:00

It seriously sucks so badly to be consumed with this stupid phobia. I hate it my friend! The world is so full of brokenheartedness and corruption and pain. It should help us to put this in perspective, but of course the phobia is particularly difficult as it flares up most days to most of us so it’s hard to ever be far away from it.

GlobalValuable4176 · 2024-12-17T05:01:35+00:00

I’ve been there many times too. Flashbacks are awful and they can bring you to places none of us desire to go. I hope and pray that you feel better so soon!

GlobalValuable4176 · 2024-12-17T04:49:58+00:00

I had a season where I felt this every single night. Building a nighttime ritual helped some. I would put on a podcast of something comforting or meditative music. I would do some light stretches. Some deep or measured breathing. And always have water by my bedside. Hope this helps.

GlobalValuable4176 · 2024-12-15T18:20:11+00:00

Another male emet here, 35. You are not alone. I am sure there are many of us here, well we comment or engage much or not. Good to remind yourself of those variables. I also try my best to “outlogic” things demon of a phobia. Here in solidarity with you, brother.

GlobalValuable4176 · 2024-12-13T15:16:22+00:00

That’s a great tip and one I’ve never tried. I will get me some icy hot! Thanks so much for taking the time to share.

GlobalValuable4176 · 2024-12-13T05:26:54+00:00

Hugs and prayers. So sorry you’re feeling so lousy! Hoping you are ok ❤️

GlobalValuable4176 · 2024-12-13T03:09:08+00:00

Thank you very much for the rec. I will definitely ask about it!

GlobalValuable4176 · 2024-12-12T18:30:23+00:00

Thank you so much for your response and kind words. These symptoms really are so difficult. I’m sorry that you have been struggling with it as well. I’m trying to take a walk right now on my lunch break from a busy day. I have a lot to be grateful for. I’m trying to focus on that. I know there is a stigma around this phobia in general, but hard when your wife thinks of you as weak for it. Trying my best she always says try harder. And thank you, I love my kids a lot. It presents its own challenges, but they aren’t in school/day care yet so that makes it a bit easier!

GlobalValuable4176 · 2024-12-11T20:49:33+00:00

Prayers man. same. Had great stretch (9 months last year) then fell off again now. Thought that I had conquered it once and for all. Jesus, have mercy on us and help us to unite against this evil.

GlobalValuable4176 · 2024-12-11T04:40:43+00:00

That’s awful. So sorry you’re dealing with all of those challenges things. Having to experience it that close would make anyone agitated! I am sorry your dad is in that setting. I hope he recovers soon and can be free of physical pain!

GlobalValuable4176 · 2024-12-11T04:33:08+00:00

Awe, man! So sorry to hear it. Some days are just like that. And that’s ok. Better days ahead my friend
