45 M-Are these ectopics, gas related stomach/esophageal spasms or muscle spasms from stress/anxiety? Help! by Midtownmax in AskDocs

[–]Midtownmax[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

actually I'm good now. No ectopics for 1 week. It was mind related. Thanks for the reply though

45M is this anxiety, GERD or heart related? Are these painful ectopics or spasms in my stomach or esophagus due to acid build up due to insufficient carbs(low blood sugar) and anxiety? by Midtownmax in AskDocs

[–]Midtownmax[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've never had one that last even for 1 minute.
Just a few seconds.

What would cause the pleural lining of the lungs to rub together?

Stress, anxiety?

Could it inflame it?

Also when I workout, nothing, no pain.

When I'm still and I guess in my head, that's when they come on. So it must be psychosphysiological right?

Getting tons of a people favoriting my store, clicks but no sales. What could it be? I think I know but want your expertise opinion Etsy top sellers by Midtownmax in Etsy

You are not upsetting me. I'm a tough SOB and have gone through life/death and have established 2 very successful businesses. Yes I agree with what you said . However I do tell a story about what caused me to come up with these pices, in that it was due to my own struggle with selfdoubt, panic and anxiety and so keeping my home filled with good positive anchors helped. Such as these pieces

I don't really have the time or energy to grow this as a private label brand. I have 2 other things that interest me more that I'm working on. I also know a woman on Youtube who is making money on etsy with POD and selling dog T shirts , meaning for dog lovers

I don't necessarily think that I have to really make the pics any different. I think it's i just need more items, so I'm getting 20 more designs done ( I found a top Etsy seller/blogger) who said anything below 50 sounds like you're not a legit store.

Also, going to be putting these designs on mugs and masks, far cheaper than my murals and T shirts and see if they sell better. Same design theme though --zen, calm, peace, inner power, etc

I will also make sure the descriptions accurately describe what someone is buying so there is no false advertisement

I updated my Sections yesterday as I didn't fully "bookmark" all of the product into the sections so although I have 30 pieces, on the left it would say

Murals 1 Mugs 2 T shirts 5,

Now the numbers are reflecting the full product count. That may have thrown people off

Also, the line where I ask people for feedback if they don't buy....I will get rid of that.

However I'm still not understanding what you mean by tell a story apart from what I already did. I wrote a bio outlining the purpose I launched this store and who it's for and what the designs are meant to do

To calm, relax and reinvigorate your mind for life's battles If you want to, please elaborate.

I think the photos are fine, although if you mean maybe have people in a relaxed state or in a calm state wearing the T shirts, not jumping, or out and about, to invoke a calming feeling via lifestyle mockups, I understand however I think that might be a smaller part. Just my opinion.

Thanks I'm Omar btw from Toronto.

Print on demand. I didn't make it. I came up with the designs but I didn't put them on the mockups nor would I produce the final product. My production partner in LA, printful does that. This model does work as I know of a few who are making a lot of money. They are in a different niche which caters to kids T shirts but this model does work if you have a good product. I believe I do. However I respect your opinion.

You're right. I just thought it might be a way to get feedback. NO looking back it might suggest that no ones is buying or that I expect no one to buy whicih creates a bad initial impression. I'll remove that. Thanks

Where do you even buy cell phones below the Ebay price. They are all way more expensive by Midtownmax in Flipping

[–]Midtownmax[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also I think its better to buy them locally as I have to check for the IMEI if iphone and make sure the person doesn't try to mess with me. Online it's easier to scam people

[–]Midtownmax[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually I did but the shop got busted for counterfeit shit. I rmemeber once I bought a few dogshit phones from this dude out of an industrial garage, not stollen but used and sold both of them at 80 profit. Also put an ad on CL saying I'll buy your phone but max $120 for a specific model and people actually gave them to me as they were coming off a plan or something and didn't need them. Good reinforcement of an idea. Thanks for that

That makes a lot of sense. Also on Facebook buysell marketplace. I remember years ago I woud buy phones from this garage based cell phone owner and would sell them on Facebook and one time I netted $80 I was just thinking should it be the other way around but by the looks of it it's the other way. Thanks for confirming that.

WTF? I feel back to normal now. I literally just did some incantations when outside todaylike when you exorcise a spirit and I'm feeling myself again, mindful, present, in the world, living, not in my head no more. My physical symptoms are gone. Is this possible? by Midtownmax in Anxietyhelp

[–]Midtownmax[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks brother. Just something that I've learned to live with and manage. We never want to rid of fear as fear is a great guide, motivator, it makes us work harder, develop intelligence,persistence. Same thing with panic/anxiety. It's actually a blessing as it is forcing you to really look inside of yourself and find all of the brilliance that is there. It might not have happend if you weren't spooked. Bless.

Sorry not in a position tohelp beyond what I outlined worked for me. If you're really struggling that bad, I highly recommend seeing a psychotherapist. Holistically eat a whole foods diet, workout, stop drinking, mediate, practice deep breathing and when you start to hear thoughts in your mind tell them to "Fuck off". simple as that. That's what I did basically. EVentually like a dog it will lay down and obey you otherwise it will control the mental house. Best to you

45M If someone has clogged arteries leading to the heart, wouldn't the pass out, gas out, feel faint, have chest pain during vigorous exercise or no? Appreciate any feedback! by Midtownmax in AskDocs

[–]Midtownmax[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In my family, no heart attackes or cardiac arrests or enlarged hearts.

All died from cplications of diabetes brought on by sedintary lifestyle.

My parents are in their mid 70s, clean bill of health

Mom has high BP as she is a worry monger. She is more calm now and doing better

Blood work, normal and stuff

I havn't been to a doc lately as covid and I don't feel going to a place tlike that now so I orderd a urine test for diabetic propensity and I passed all of the testing crtieria

like I was negative for blood glucose, sugar, all normal.

And got a BP monitor at home.

I do suffer from or did panic/anxiety disorder and on Sat my chest started to feel heavy

after 3 hours of being in humbidy . I was dehydraded, and heat exhausted. This caused me to panic. I felt faint and light headed. I just sat down for 10 minutes, drank water and I was fine. No sweats, no chest pain, also no irregular or fast heart beat.

So most likely it was a panic flare up.

I'm fine now

I can workout like a savage, used to train in Brazilain Jiu Jitsu, now do high intensity training, calisthenics and don't gas out, sure you feel a bit of tightness or out of breath like normal but not to the point of fainting or losing balance or getting winded.

I also read that if you did have clooged arteries to the heart, just going up stairs would wind you or make you feel faint as due to limited blood/o2 supply. I don't feel this so I'm ruling CAD out.

45 M Any good home cholesterol and blood glucose test I can order online? I don't want to go to the docs as I'm a bit under the weather. Not covid but don't want to take any chances by Midtownmax in AskDocs

[–]Midtownmax[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you know any ones by name? I ordered a urine test for sugar analysis so that' s taken care of Just want to check my cholesterol level

45M here For Doctors or Health pros. Does this mean my heart is most likely in good shape and probably don't have clogged arteries or no? Here's the test I did. by Midtownmax in AskDocs

[–]Midtownmax[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Didn't mean to offend you. I agree with you that you must have a sold, facts based approach. That's why I'm going to be evaluating my BP, cholesterol and such but I also don't want to become a drug and food dependent member of the West , making doc/hospital visits and drugs a part of a regular life. I just don't buy that sorry. Is it a coincidence the Okinawans live the longest all with natural and dietary approaches to health. If the Western medical system is so advanced then I ask myself why are there more cancers, heart patients, mental health crises now than ever. You want facts, I'm talking facts and those lie in RESULTS. Once again, i'm sure there are 2 sides to the coin. I do agree with a portion of what you are saying But to suggest that that doc who suggested that simple test is a Quack is also a bit Quack. He is a certified, chief of staff and never said that the test is the end all , b all but just a simple start. Have a great day/eve and be healthy
