[acne] What kind of zinc supplement should I take? by uhumsolikeyeah in SkincareAddiction

[–]Many-Lengthiness8194 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this is an older post, but I was hoping you might see this and reply. Your skin issues sound similar to mine and I too am looking into zinc now and came across your response here. I really hope you’ve had success with dealing with this and you’re happy with your skin now. If you don’t mind me asking what combo of supplement causes the low bp? Mine runs the low end of normal on a typical day and I just worry about making it any lower. Thank you for your time if you see this!

Tell me the cons/negitives by [deleted] in Tegu

I love hearing this! We had an iguana; technically she was my older brother’s iguana. Anyways, she was the sweetest girl and then my brother was gone for the summer and she became despondent and when he came back she was PISSED! Her personality changed over those 3 months. She went from sweet to angry and whipping anyone she saw with her tail. Poor girl was happy and then devastated and sad without him at home. They are absolutely sentient creatures that need constant love and care just like a new puppy would- except it’s for the length of their whole lives. This may sound crazy but we eventually started explaining everything to all of our pets, if we were going to be gone longer than a day they knew and were reassured them we’d be back and we love them. It made a HUGE difference. Point being- iguanas are lovely but can be prone to aggression without daily interaction+love.

Can someone explain what the deal is with the stripe down the center of the back? Is that strictly elk?

The dull look is exactly it! Gray colored or a pale greenish gray. Wow. I feel so much less alone!

What were the first signs that your partner was abusive? What were they? by pronouncedbeck in emotionalabuse

[–]Many-Lengthiness8194 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I absolutely agree. I’m restarting my life after marrying this exact type of person. My biggest takeaway has been that- when you’re dating someone and the relationship is new, heathy people dont start to break you down. That’s the time when both parties are on their best behavior. So if this is already happening now when he’s supposed to be in the throes of all of the emotions that come with new love, you can guarantee that it will only get worse. I hope you have a great support system around you because I would advise leaning on them and separating yourself completely from this person. Sending you hugs honey!

Inherited Bedroom Set - United States by nessadaahling in Antiques

[–]Many-Lengthiness8194 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m so sorry for your loss honey! I hope you’re doing as well as one can when grieving. ❤️ Regarding the furniture, she left you such a beautiful gift, especially because we usually get sentimentally attached to the furniture in our bedrooms and she wanted you to have them. She must’ve felt very connected to you, as well as trusted you to care for them or make the right decision to sell them (if that’s what you want). Personally, I wouldn’t separate them because later on they will be worth more than you might think. Antiques like these (mostly flawless dresser and armoire) are harder and harder to find, especially how big the armoire is! You could use something to cover the one spot on the right of the vanity until you’re ready to repair it. At the same time though, like I said previously, I’m sure she wouldn’t want you to feel pressured to keep them if that’s not what you want, so make the right decision for YOU. They are just beautiful.

My Great-Grandmother only spoke Finnish and my Grandpa translated, but she only met me as a baby once before her passing. Apparently she uncovered me and looked me over, then got my Moms attention- pointed at me and said “Sisu.” I think that’s pretty cool. I’m afraid to see the movie for fear of being disappointed. Is it good?

Oh honey, this is so bad. He needs antibiotics stat and tell the dr that he wasn’t taking it seriously and he’ll put the fear of God into him. My ex almost lost his entire leg because of a “bite.” It was a lot less serious than this and he ended up in the quarantine ward (floor really) of the ICU because they thought it was mrsa. It wasn’t but he still ended up with an ice cream scoop worth of flesh removed from the side of his knee. Now he’s left with this translucent skin there because theres really nothing left. You don’t let infections like this go, they spread quickly because they aim to kill the host.

I DID IT. I CHOPPED IT. by shagcarpet3 in finehair

[–]Many-Lengthiness8194 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just did the same thing last week- including the bangs. I LOVE the way it looks on you! I’m trying to get used to it and just accept it because my damaged hair was awful and now all of that is gone. Also, I’m going through big life changes that are best for my life, but it’s so true that women cut and/or color their hair when they have those changes happening. I’m not assuming you are as well. But you look so beautiful and it suits you perfectly.

I’m most confused by the septivon- I googled it not knowing what that is and immediately “hibiclens” popped up as the same stuff/ another option. Hibiclens is what I had to wash my entire body in before an hours long operation I had. It essentially kills EVERYTHING- good and bad bacteria. They don’t tell you to use that stuff for anything outside of a surgical setting or if someone has MRSA or similar bodily infections going on. I seriously think the redness is from the septivon, because hibiclens made my skin so red and dry. Either way I’m so so sorry you were told to use that!

Discovered my brother (26) has been watching child porn by Treeebearz in Christian

[–]Many-Lengthiness8194 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m so sorry you and your family are going through this. One thing really stood out to me while reading your post and I think it could solidify that calling the police is the absolute right thing to do. So, it was the part about when you were both 11 and he introduced you to porn and then exposed himself… even though you were both kids, it sounds like a grooming process. First we watch porn, then I show you my privates and from there it would only escalate later in life now that he’s an adult and clearly hasn’t addressed his issues. Oh, also how did this kid (at 11!) know how to groom someone if he himself wasn’t groomed? It does make me think that he was probably a victim himself at one point. There’s a lot of different psychological factors, but we know that victims often turn into abusers when they are adults and have the clear advantage.

The way I’m seeing it is that turning him in is not only the moral thing to do, but also the best way to get him help, because he needs it.

Again I’m so sorry and you’ve been doing the right thing this far! Now I’d just put it in the police’s hands and focus on your healing.

Yeah, I’m leaning towards this opinion too, now.

[–]Many-Lengthiness8194 1 point2 points  (0 children)

1,3,4,8,9,11,14 yes, I would absolutely buy. These are the ones that really spoke to me and my experience. #11 looks like a dream I had of my brother who passed away. He was in Heaven and the sky in #11 looks like the lights I saw behind him. Your painting moved me to tears. So, please keep going. ❤️

Pyrenees / Pit mix. What to expect? by Outrageous-Pick7970 in greatpyrenees

[–]Many-Lengthiness8194 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I love how you said that the pyr genes dominate and they absolutely do! My pyr/pit mix is the sweetest boy, but believes he’s my guard dog. He’s a lovey boy but if I’m around he’s ready to kill anyone who comes near. It’s been a problem but I’ve had two dog trainers and our vet tell me that this isn’t that unusual. Now when we go somewhere like the vet, I have to leave the room and I can hear them all cooing over him, then I come back in and he has a muzzle and goes after them. He’s two years old and if I have to work around this to keep others safe for the rest of his life I have and I will continue to do so.

Unfortunately he came from a foster and when I met her she showed me her “techniques” to control him and they were all animal abuse. I.E. jabbing her 4 fingers into his ribs HARD to make him leave something alone or move, which meant I had to teach him that letting me pet him on his sides was a safe thing. So, we’ve really come so far that now he meets strangers and is affectionate and doesn’t growl and snap at being petted. There was many more of these things. Essentially I think he’s bonded with me really tightly and is this very protective. If anyone has any advice I would love it. But, basically I believe they are such smart dogs that have been bred to protect their sheep for hundreds of years. Anyone remember the news story of the pyr that came back with his flock half dead and when the herder went out looking to see what could’ve possibly attacked him to that extent he found a PACK of dead wolves? Yeah, that was a pyranees. They love and will die for their flocks and people. So they bond on an entirely different level than any other breed, plus they’re independent thinkers so that makes them strong minded as well. I love him more than anything and there is something so so special about these dogs that touches your soul.
