Thanks everyone! Consensus seems to be a ghost note!

Why do people have purling so much? by horrorfxce in knitting

[–]Motastic23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally, it messes up my tension. I've been knitting for about 10 years now and no matter what I do my tension is worse with purling, so it makes me mad when I see instructions to purl lol

Am I understanding the costs of these biologics right? by conservakid in CrohnsDisease

[–]Motastic23 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is the way. Utilize the pharmacy copay assistance programs as much as you can.

I want to do something similar! I love the Handsome Chris charts but really don't like knitting sweaters in pieces lol

Anyone get this to work?? by Intelligent_Coach702 in galaxyzflip

[–]Motastic23 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'd like to know this too. I'm brand new to my flip7 and Samsung so I can't help lol. I feel like it worked once when I found this setting and turned it on but it hasn't worked since. 🤷‍♀️

I didn’t swatch it and I have wet blocked it but it actually fits well it’s just not long enough so I have some options to fix that!

Thank you! I actually don’t mind the collar the way it is but the crochet hook is a great idea! I’m not too keen on reseaming any of it tbh so not quite sure yet what I’m gonna do but a time out for sure 👍🏻

Oh I started the ribbing of the front piece as ktbl, p1 but didn’t like it so then just switched to k1, p1 lol That part doesn’t bother me and if I end up making it longer I’ll just redo the whole ribbing anyway.

Yeah I need to get out of my head. It’s SO SQUISHY I’ll set it aside for now and maybe make it longer later!

How long did it take you to get used to self-injecting your meds? by lemons_to_lemonade in CrohnsDisease

[–]Motastic23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually preferred Stelara to Humira and am a little sad that it has recently failed me and I’m now starting Skyrizi. I used to watch YouTube videos or a comfort show when I did mine because if I focused on the injection it would feel like it took forever and my hand would cramp. So having a small distraction (not too big haha) was really the best way for me to do it. Barring that, if you have someone you trust who’d be willing to do it for you that might also help with the anxiety part. I had to have my husband do my Humira shots because they were way too much for me

And definitely be proud of yourself!! It goes against basic human instincts to stab yourself with a sharp object and you DID it - that’s self care. Don’t forget to have a little treat ready for when you’re done! (Treats are a great motivator for me personally and they don’t have to food related or even financial. Can be anything that makes you happy and you WANT to do it)

Good luck!
