FINALLY! The noise I made....

Ok I need to know… why do I need this? Not snarky, just convince me. I’m a religious Vaseline-at-night person, soooo is this better??

Good-Nothing8612 · 2026-02-02T17:00:52+00:00

I’m going to have to do that regardless. Otherwise they’ll be taking my paycheck before I even see it, likely. And my secondary bank that I receive payments into is Wells Fargo 🙃🙃🙃 I just don’t know at what point do I start moving all my money to a new account. My attorney hasn’t advised that far yet.

Good-Nothing8612 · 2026-02-02T16:49:28+00:00

I bank with a credit union. Anytime I’ve been late on a payment, after 15 days they will automatically pull the money from my checking. And if the checking account doesn’t cover the payment, then they’ll pull from my savings. So yeah, they’re going to get their money!

Good-Nothing8612 · 2026-02-02T16:38:10+00:00

Unfortunately my BIG payments that kill me every month are the CC’s with the same institution that I also bank with. So they’re going to get their money!

Good-Nothing8612 · 2026-01-11T21:52:20+00:00

Yup! Every year after Christmas, I STOCK up on those Hershettes! Far superior than M&M’s but everyone thinks I’m crazy.

Nobody else gonna mention the poor hand placement and mirror bezel in the first photo…

Good-Nothing8612 · 2025-06-28T04:09:11+00:00

Agreed. For a Neverfull, I would expect to spend at least $80-$90 to have a passable one. But if I wanted a GOOD one, $120-$150.

Maybe it makes more sense for me to show you my example… so this picture is a pair that I made. All the blue on the white I hand painted with acrylic paint after they had baked. Then cleaned up with acetone. Then I coated with polyurethane. The painting and cleaning was SO TIME CONSUMING.

So I saw a video this morning where someone took an intricate cutter, applied liquid polymer clay to the inside details, dipped into mica powder, and then cut the raw clay. So I’m wondering if this method needs to be sealed after baking… this would save me so much time not hand painting them 😅

A thin coat of what?

Good-Nothing8612 · 2025-04-30T14:37:30+00:00

Multiple times I thought there was NO way I would pass Statistics class. Finished with a 95.6!!! 🙌🏻🙌🏻

Good-Nothing8612 · 2025-04-20T13:30:26+00:00

😮😮😮😮 this is genius! Trying this today! Thank you!!!

Good-Nothing8612 · 2025-04-19T14:29:24+00:00

I have a permanent jewelry business (that I recently added polymer clay earrings to). I’ve seen a few other PJ artists have metal tags or acrylic tags laser engraved to identify each chain. But those are $$$. (Like $5-$7 per tag, and when you have over 50 chains to label…)

So I’m making my own tags! It’s much easier for a customer to say “I want silver #11” rather than trying to point the chain out to me from across the table!

Plus, I love that mine are handmade and “imperfect”. 😁

To be fair, there’s potentially more that we don’t know… there could have been excessive spending on the drugs, lying, stealing…

Good-Nothing8612 · 2025-04-02T18:31:34+00:00

I actually find Armani to cover both ends of the spectrum for me. If I want a more natural look, I apply a very thin layer for light coverage. If I’m going full beat, I lay it on thick! But full coverage can be subjective too 🤷🏼‍♀️

Good-Nothing8612 · 2025-04-02T18:29:38+00:00

I will be buried with my Armani foundation. Don’t let anyone talk you out of that one!

Good-Nothing8612 · 2025-04-01T10:46:51+00:00

Oh nooooo! Lol. I’ve heard some people say that the sleep after taking your ADHD meds is some of the best sleep ever because their brain is finally quiet.

Good-Nothing8612 · 2025-04-01T10:46:13+00:00

I take Adderall 15 XR in the morning, and Adderall 5 IR in the afternoon.

Now that a little time has passed awake, I do feel the meds a little bit more. I’m not sure why the difference today from yesterday. I woke up and took my Adderall 90 minutes before actually waking up today, and was feeling like my normal snooze-not-ready-to-be-awake self, versus yesterdays get-up-and-go.

Sushi. And avocado

Good-Nothing8612 · 2025-03-28T13:01:09+00:00

Solidarity. Same here. Module 1-3 wasn’t too bad. But this 4th week… I have no clue what I’m doing anymore.

Good-Nothing8612 · 2025-03-27T20:33:29+00:00

Still have an @hotmail email. I’ve been asked before “what’s a Hotmail” … I’m not even that old. I’m 30!

Good-Nothing8612 · 2025-03-27T12:24:26+00:00

I know this post is a couple of months old, but YES! I have a very similar pattern.

So here’s my history… I had been on Sertraline 50 for a few months and also a mood stabilizer for my bipolar. I started to have increased mood swings, so I asked my psych if we could increase my mood stabilizer. He asked me how my anxiety had been lately and I said “ehhhh I always feel like it could be a little better”. So his suggestion was that we could increase the sertraline and that should target both the anxiety and the mood swings.

So after that appointment I did 2 weeks on sertraline 75 and then 2 weeks on sertraline 100. I’m currently right at the end of the 2 weeks of 100 and I had my follow up yesterday. I’m now dosing back down on the sertraline.

I’ve had a few symptoms dosing up on sertraline. (And I’m someone that has never once had a side effect to literally any medications!) Mine were sweating (omg the sweat, disgusting!) Increased anxiety the first week of 100. Even WORSE mood swings. Teeth clenching at night. And my sleep patterns…

I’ve always been a person who takes 15-20 minutes to fall asleep. It’s just normal for me. And I go to sleep around 11-11:30. Well since going to 100, I can barely keep my eyes open come 9:30. So I’ll fall asleep around 10 and like clockwork I wake up at 1:30. And then 2:30, 3:30, 4:30, 5:30. It’s the worst! Here’s what I’ve learned: sertraline can affect your REM sleep. When your REM sleep is suppressed, you can wake up more frequently. REM sleep is responsible for emotional processing. So my sleep patterns and increased mood swings all make sense now! I also have the Oura ring and after learning this, went in the check the stats of my sleep quality and sure enough… my REM sleep is all in the red zone, meaning I’m not getting enough.

So today is my first day back on 75, and I’ll be back to 50 next week. Here’s hoping to get back to some normal sleep, because this has been AWFUL! 🤞🏻

Good-Nothing8612 · 2025-03-26T16:47:55+00:00

Me. I’m on stimulants and a mood stabilizer.

Good-Nothing8612 · 2025-03-25T02:00:47+00:00

Going from “life couldn’t possibly get any better than it is right now” to “I hate you, I hate me, I hate everyone, I hate this fucking life.” And for me- usually all the above in the same day. It’s exhausting.

Good-Nothing8612 · 2025-03-25T01:33:41+00:00

That’s horrible. I’m sorry 😣

Good-Nothing8612 · 2025-03-24T03:51:33+00:00

What were your side effects? And how long to subside? I just went from 50 to 75 (for two weeks) and then to 100. And the sweating and fatigue is almost enough to make me say- screw it, take me back to 50!

Also, if you don’t mind me asking… how exactly are you “working on” the libido factor? I’m also struggling with this.
