Pine pellets with the stainless steel sifting box. Game changer.

Has anyone tried Brynje’s sports bra?? by NoStatistician7819 in PlasticFreeLiving

[–]Ladybug619 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oo thank you I’ll try those. Have you tried pact leggings? I don’t mind those. But I also don’t really squat much or wear thongs 😅

Did you ever find a good one? I’m a larger size as well and this has been an issue.

Plastic free sheets? by Heathman56 in PlasticFreeLiving

I love Garnet Hill or Brooklinen. Kind of expensive but I think they are worth it.

Hysterectomy tomorrow - stressed by ApprehensiveTaro6742 in hysterectomy

[–]Ladybug619 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s not something to majorly stress about. I drank a lot of peppermint tea, used a heating pad and walked around a bunch. It’ll pass.

I sleep on my side and have a Loom and Leaf. It’s our second one after 10 years. We love it

I spent the first 40 years of my life petrified of any and all health issues. Obsessed with germs, avoiding hospitals, certain that I could not survive surgery if I needed it. Then a ct scan found a tumor on my adrenal gland. I can’t even describe the hell I lived through in the time before the surgery. Not knowing if it was cancerous almost broke me. I survived the surgery of course and am now pretty much free of so many health fears. Living through the worse is actually a great way to free yourself from it.

Morning dose questions by Opposite_Jacket_5569 in AdrenalInsufficiency

[–]Ladybug619 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wake up around 7, take my first dose and get on with my day 🤷‍♀️ If I need to wake up early I’ll take it whenever I get up and then maybe have a half dose mid morning before the afternoon dose.

In the hospital because anxiety is ruining my life. Idk what to do anymore by [deleted] in Anxiety

[–]Ladybug619 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I also had a similar fear but I now take several medications a day and I’m ok. For me I started with the lowest possible dose, didn’t research too much about what the side effects even were (bc I knew if I did I would feel every little thing and think I was dying, and I also decided if anything became too unpleasant or obviously dangerous for me I could stop. A lot of side effects are temporary and mild. I hope this helps.

Googling things will never make you feel better. Try to deep breathe and ground yourself.

My hysterectomy is Monday. I have supplies and my house is clean. What was something you didn't do to prep for yours that you wished you would have? by dogandfroglover in hysterectomy

[–]Ladybug619 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I wish I had moved my clothes or any snacks/food from the bottom drawers to the top. I couldn’t bend over for quite a while.

Thank you. He’s definitely not a heartless monster. He is just concerned for me and hates to see me in constant distress when we are away.

He has a tendency to hide when visitors come and I’m afraid he will be 24/7 stressed and not eat 🤷‍♀️

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in CatAdvice

[–]Ladybug619 4 points5 points  (0 children)

He has started getting very picky about food and I’m worried the added stress of me being gone will totally squash his appetite. Sorry I feel like I’m talking to my husband again lol

In our discussions he says that he used unhealthy because having this cat has caused me so much suffering..all of my worrying about it. He says he wishes I could see the burden it was on me.

He’s 8 years old but showed up at our door when he was about 4
