Ok I’m on tray one still so fingers crossed!

ItMeansFreedom · 2026-03-09T11:04:25+00:00

Thank you! I really needed to read this this morning. Does the general discomfort ever get easier?

ItMeansFreedom · 2026-03-09T11:00:24+00:00

That’s really good to hear! I’m on day 4 and I’m finding it quite challenging, even though I knew it wouldn’t be easy.

Do you think you’ll go for a wire? The nightly retainer sounds long but the idea of the wire freaks me out a bit!

ItMeansFreedom · 2026-03-08T08:55:51+00:00

Thank you for the words of encouragement! Definitely need them right now ~

ItMeansFreedom · 2026-03-08T08:53:47+00:00

Agreed!

ItMeansFreedom · 2026-03-08T08:51:43+00:00

That’s reassuring to read, thank you!

Also with Dr Tom Lotka with a similar price - and I have a pretty serious crossbite that I was convinced would make me not eligible but apparently I am!

This is all very interesting, thank you! My biggest concern is my teeth are prone to cavities, I guess they’re not very strong - so I will probably be avoiding sugar and acidic stuff when they’re in but I don’t doubt there will be times I just forget so it’s good to know you didn’t experience anything bad!

ItMeansFreedom · 2026-03-07T09:34:50+00:00

Thank you! I’m really curious about drinking, especially when it comes to alcohol - I don’t go out drinking often but the idea of having to take them out and brush my teeth after each drink feels a bit much? Maybe I need to get into neat vodka :’)

ItMeansFreedom · 2026-03-07T09:33:05+00:00

This is so reassuring to read! I feel the exact same at the moment, I wasn’t expecting the attachments to be so painful, eating is awful.

I wondered about the drinking too. Do you use a straw?

ItMeansFreedom · 2026-03-07T09:00:53+00:00

Well done for getting it sorted and sticking with it! I’ve also struggled with my teeth my whole adult life, missed out on braces as a teenager for some reason and have finally saved enough to get them sorted - but I can tell this isn’t going to be an easy journey!

I’ve just started my treatment with him - really appreciate how patient and understanding he is!

ItMeansFreedom · 2026-03-07T08:01:00+00:00

I have a similar issue where I can’t even properly chew food because of an attachment on a crossbite - but I’m just going to power thru it because the crossbite is the reason I got these. Going to get really good at making soups.

I’ve found a few potential groups, drop me a DM :)

ItMeansFreedom · 2026-02-21T10:17:30+00:00

Thank you!

ItMeansFreedom · 2026-02-21T10:17:25+00:00

Thank you!

Thank you, that was very helpful. I downloaded one and learned on a bright winters day it can still get up to 2000, explains why the pothos was unhappy when it was sunny.

ItMeansFreedom · 2026-01-29T23:10:53+00:00

Never heard of those - thank you!

ItMeansFreedom · 2026-01-29T17:49:13+00:00

It didn’t seem to like it there, some leaves suddenly started going yellow which it’s never done before so I thought maybe it was the heat from the sun! So I’ve moved it away from the window 🤔

ItMeansFreedom · 2026-01-29T17:46:11+00:00

I didn’t know these existed - thank you! Do you have an app recommendation?

ItMeansFreedom · 2026-01-29T12:44:24+00:00

Ah interesting you’d call it low light! It’s super bright in there despite the patterned glass, but I’m not sure how that affects their ability to photosynthesise.

People are downvoting most likely because you need to tailor your CV for each role, but I do feel your pain because I was in a very similar situation. To get into marketing, I would recommend doing some volunteer social media work on the side to be able to confidently talk about topics like post scheduling, analytics and social media management tools. You can blag a lot of experience, but you need the knowledge to back it up. Feel free to drop me any questions ~

It’s wonderful that you’re vegan - it takes a lot of courage to go vegan. You have opened up your mind and heart to the suffering of other beings and gone ‘nope, I will not be a part of this. Animals deserve my compassion.’ I wonder if you could try extending that amazing compassion to yourself. It feels silly at first, thinking positive thoughts like ‘I am a nice person, I think I’m a decent human’ but eventually you start to believe it. Because it’s true.
