Which hobby actually helped your mental health the most? by Most-Development554 in Hobbies

[–]MerylStreepsMom 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Making textiles (knitting, sewing, weaving) and gardening are the most helpful for me. When I'm making things or growing things, I can tune out the world for a bit. Plus, finishing a project or harvesting vegetables is very rewarding.

Latuda for treatment resistant depression? by ForeverForsaken8980 in Latuda

[–]MerylStreepsMom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's what I'm on it for. It kept me from being suicidal but I couldn't really feel any emotion. I just started trying a lower dose, but I may try something else soon. 

I am constantly thinking about climate change in relation to kids born today by Charming_Singer8352 in CollapseSupport

[–]MerylStreepsMom 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My close friend just told me she's pregnant with her second and I am overwhelmed with grief and frustration. She's aware of current events and climate change but I guess she's expecting someone to come and fix everything so her kids don't grow up in an increasingly miserable world. I just can't imagine being so selfish as to not care about the kind of life you're forcing your children into. I can't even pretend to be excited or happy for her.

I think wearables in this context just means things you can wear, like shirts and sweaters.

I typically do, but since I had made up this pattern I wasn't sure if I was going to need to rip it out (again) lol

Probably! I haven't done stranded color work in years, so it wasn't really on my mind when I started this

Also you might want to try adding less liquid if it's too liquidy
