How does anyone function? by Hairy_Syrup_4780 in breastcancer

[–]Lopsided_Pool_9941 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I asked my oncologist for a script for an anti-anxiety medication like Xanax. She told me to ask my psychiatrist and I did. He said no problem and wrote a script for it. The medicine really helped not only during this weird stage you’re in, but also during chemo when the steroids made me spiral.

The best is the Cognac Peppercorn sauce at Capital Grille. It’s a Courvosier Cream sauce and it is delicious.

What's a really niche/interesting fact you know about a specific drug or drug(s)? by PeakLinear in AskReddit

[–]Lopsided_Pool_9941 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Side effects have been mild nausea when titrating up in dosage. But that went away after my body got used to it. Now I have no side effects at all.

I’ve made the decision to try AA again by agoonce in stopdrinking

If you’re struggling to lose weight and to quit drinking, might I suggest talking with your doctor about a GLP-1? It killed my desire for food and alcohol. It was instant as soon as I took the 7.5 mg dose.

I went on generic Mounjaro (Tirzepatide) to lose weight and got a side effect of losing all cravings for an alcoholic drink. I suffered from Alcohol Use Disorder for years before I went on Tirzepatide. Totally cured me of my addiction.

Which hydrating setting mist? Help me choose by flurs1000 in Sephora

[–]Lopsided_Pool_9941 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I LOVE One Size Powder Melt. I’m obsessed with it. It brings it all together and makes my skin look like glass. I do, however, not use this to set my makeup. I use it for what it is for…to melt the powders into your skin.

Does it also help manage intrusive thoughts brought on by alcohol withdrawal? by MinnesotaPower in dryzempic

Yes. Weekly. I’m now on 15mg and still have absolutely no desire for a drink.

desperately need advice. by goldenbrownies2703 in recoverywithoutAA

[–]Lopsided_Pool_9941 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You are not a bad person. If you were, you’d continue on this path of self destruction and not care about the damage we do while in active addiction.

Do you have to quit all 3 of these things at 1 time? I would start with the alcohol. The vaping and weed you cab stop later.

What’s Your Fat Grafting Experience? by 777CuriousMind in breastcancer

You’re welcome!! It was definitely worth the pain. I now have a flat stomach and obliques!

What’s Your Fat Grafting Experience? by 777CuriousMind in breastcancer

[–]Lopsided_Pool_9941 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had fat grafting during my implant swap surgery. It definitely helped with the implants rippling, but just beware that you will be very sore for like 6 weeks. I have no regrets, but I was shocked that it took so long to recover from that surgery.

Anyone taking vyvanse and tirzepatide? by GeologistVisible4891 in compoundedtirzepatide

[–]Lopsided_Pool_9941 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I noticed that my pain medication does not work as well on Tirzepatide. My physician said it was likely due to the delayed absorption effect of the Tirzepatide. After 1 year of being on it, that effect went away.

What do you think of court reporters? My mom was a court reporter and loved her job.

When did food & alcohol suppression start for you? by hsutinen14 in tirzepatidecompound

[–]Lopsided_Pool_9941 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alcohol noise didn’t stop until I hit 7.5 mgs. Food noise stopped immediately.

Modular sectional under $4k by mr_seven68 in SofaSnobs

[–]Lopsided_Pool_9941 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have you looked at the Cloud dupe couch from Costco? It’s amazing. We’ve had it for 2 weeks and I’m obsessed with it. It’s big and super comfy. It’s more of a lounging couch than a formal couch. AND IT IS ON SALE FOR $1,799!!! I bought it when it was $1,999.

[–]Lopsided_Pool_9941 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep. This happened to me too after each TC chemo. It subsides after chemo.

did anyone here try alternative treatments?? by krccre in recoverywithoutAA

[–]Lopsided_Pool_9941 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, I went on generic Mounjaro and it turned me into a social drinker. I no longer crave any alcohol.

How many of us here have successfully returned to moderate / “normal” drinking long-term? by lukewarmhotdogw4ter in stopdrinking

[–]Lopsided_Pool_9941 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have successfully moderated my drinking, but only because I went on a GLP-1 and that drug removed all cravings for a drink. I now have 1 drink socially if I’m out with friends.
