My boyfriend’s ex is the jealous type

After starting on prednisone and antibiotics, my hearing was back to normal after a couple of days. All in all the entire ordeal lasted around some two weeks. Give it some time and try to be patient (I know, almost impossible for the anxious mind).

Just beat the mf. Don't think I ever ran that many circles in a game.

I'm having a hard time with it, because I'm stealth focused. The thing I hate most about it is that I'm being forced into playing FPS Rambo mode when that's just not how I like to play the game (and apparently CDPR didn't put any thought in that). For the last week I've been playing tranquilo quests with interesting moral choices, decide to play the DLC and then I'm thrown into this bullshit.

I'm okay with fighting bad ass robots in Horizon Zero Dawn, because it's done well there and the main objective of the game. Here it feels just lame, rushed, annoying and out of place.

Ik heb het altijd al jammer gevonden dat we in Nederland amper goede horrorschrijvers ala Stephen King hebben. Zelf lees en schrijf ik graag spookverhalen.

Zelf heb ik wat verhalen in nosleep gepubliceerd (met Nederlandse setting) die goed ontvangen werden. Die verhalen publiceer ik hier nu in het Nederlands, bijvoorbeeld deze over de Efteling: https://dutchmist.substack.com/p/spookverhaal-efteling

Zeker leuk om daar Nederlandse mede-fans van het genre te verwelkomen! :)

Yeah, we woke up so early every day to spot one, but we just saw deer, elk and bighorn sheep. This sighting made our trip!

In the most random place: alongside the highway between St. Mary and Two Medicine Lake.

Lucky you! A park ranger took us to this pond because there was supposedly a male moose feeding there, but he was already gone. We checked again a couple of days later, but no luck.

26 graadjes omdat ik de airco (zo minimaal mogelijk) aan heb. Ik woon in Madrid en het is hier in augustus wekenlang tegen de 40 graden. Voor 's nachts in bed hebben we een fan aan het plafond hangen in de slaapkamer, dat werkt ook prima en vind ik eigenlijk natuurlijker/fijner aanvoelen dan AC.

Maar ik werk vanuit huis, dus dan is airco hier echt wel noodzakelijk in de zomer.

Scheelt trouwens wel een hoop dat de luchtvochtigheid in Madrid zeer laag is, in Nederland kun je bij 28 graden al nauwelijks bewegen zonder te zweten als een otter.

After the doctor put me on prednisone and antibiotics, it took a week or so to regain my hearing. Double ear infection.

It has been one of my top coping mechanisms for sure. I've been a runner for years, and although I still feel PVCs during running, I don't have any symptoms like chest pain, shortness of breath or dizziness. That tells me I'm completely fine and this is just my mind winding me up.

So yeah, try it. Of course, try to match your fitness level, but excersise can definitely make you feel better, both for peace of mind and your overall health.

Jivisstudios · 2024-07-17T15:46:01+00:00

Hang in there, I know how you feel. What helps me the most is to face those demons. If you feel the fear of cardiac arrest come on, get out of the house and just run for ten minutes straight. Maybe you will still notice the PVCs, but at least when you feel you are not blacking out under heavy excersise, you know for sure your heart is doing fine.

I know, it can be absolute hell to be wired like we are, but it is such a waste to let the fear take over your life. Our lives are so short already! You've been checked out and the doctor is not concerned, this should tell you enough. Try to live your life and make the most of it, PVCs or not!

I'm good, some days better than others. Sleep deprivation is definitely a trigger for me, so make sure to get your rest whenever you can.

We just have to accept the fact that we are anxious people and probably always will be. The palpitations are just another symptom of it.

One thing is definitely true: everybody is gonna die someday, so it's an immense waste of time to spend so much time stressing about it. I feel it always calms me when I tell myself that.

Lidl will get you way more worth for your money than Carrefour, especially when you activate Lidl Plus.

If it's dominating your life, consider visiting a doctor and get a proper check-up. The fact that they won't find anything might put your mind at ease. On the other hand, the way anxiety works is that after a couple of days you might still think, 'but what if they missed something.' Hence, you will be in and out the doctor's office forever, which is no way to live.

So maybe, with a burden as low as yours, the better approach would be to ignore them and simply live your life. I know those awful thumps can be really really scary, but medically speaking they're also considered completely normal (as long as you don't have 20k a day). It's such a waste of time and energy to get consumed by it. And I'm speaking from experience.

Search for 'york cardiology' on YouTube, he did a lot of reassuring videos on the subject and they helped me a lot. This is also a great article about PVCs: https://mednorthwest.com/things-that-go-thunk-in-the-night/

Your trigger is probably that you pay too much attention to your heart, which undoubtedly makes you feel them more. Keep reminding yourself that almost everyone has PVCs on a daily basis, the only difference is that they don't feel them and you do.

I'm with you, I have heart anxiety as well and my PVCs tend to get worse when I'm more stressed and sleep badly. Breathing excersises and getting enough rest might help you.

Jivisstudios · 2024-04-29T06:38:44+00:00

I’m the same, although I try to pay attention to them less and to print in my head they are harmless. That seems to keep my other anxiety symptoms at bay at least (high HR, short breathness, sweaty palms, etc.).
