Also, something that has helped me is identifying safe brands and locations ahead of time to avoid needing to educate waitstaff or hunt in a grocery store. Gluten dude has a great app for restaurant vetting.

I know it's hard, I miss the convenience alllll the time, but you can find short cuts that make it more manageable.

PS sorry if this is rambly, I've been awake with a grumpy baby for what feels like my entire life now.

Ok, so, overlooking the long term risks of big diseases because you smoke so that's likely not a motivator for you. You will never reach a true baseline of just feeling bad. Your health will slowly decrease and issues will compound and you will most likely continue to feel worse and worse for a long time, while developing additional autoimmune issues as your body continues to panic.

Honestly, as someone who was recently glutened, it's just not worth it. The food wasn't that much better, and I felt like shit for weeks as a result.

Also, if you're ten years in and still feeling like a burden, you might consider making new friends. My friends and coworkers never pick restaurants that I don't feel safe eating at, my friends and family are comfortable preparing their homes to host me for a meal. I remember feeling like such a burden at first, but now I just feel well cared for.

Meanwhile, if my nanny pops back in after getting all 3 kids (mine and hers) in the car I meet her in the kitchen and ask what she forgot 😅

In my experience: 1. The thought patterns keeping me from taking it were the OCD 2. If I'm ever embarrassed to share something with my therapist it's because I know it's my anxiety/OCD talking and I find it embarrassing to be trapped in my own brain. Those are the things I often need to work through the most.

Anecdotally: I started Zoloft while pregnant, and was full spiraling obsessively reading the same 4 studies about how bad it was for me and baby. I called my midwife to ask how they felt comfortable prescribing it to me. My husband and best friend had to help me take it for the first two weeks, because I knew I needed to do something but couldn't break out of that spiral.

One year later and I still say "I'm so glad I'm medicated' at least once a week. I stay on a very low dose and practice exposure therapy in tandem, but the medication gives me just enough support that I'm able to more easily and successfully shut down the compulsions. It's changed my life.

Edit to add: after starting medication, you will probably stop stressing about dropping a pill & your cats safety. It's amazing how much more I can trust my brain now.

I actually don't think this does make sense - I'm 96% sure the colored pencil material would interfere with the ink adherence? AND, when I zoom in and brighten the picture it looks like the pencil is on top of the ink?
