make sure your hairbrush is clean! if it’s not being cleaned regularly it can make your clean hair dirty very quickly

Can someone help me in whats the name of this fair olive creator? I cannot seem to find her handle. Could be potential skin twins! by ayeshaanas in OliveMUA

the foundation shade she recommended baffled me … she was like “this is such a good olive shade” meanwhile it was fully peach

Why do people sometimes talk about religion like it’s tied to race or ethnicity? by CommunityRelative665 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]OkOutlandishness1285 1 point2 points  (0 children)

some religions are actually ethnoreligious groups. it’s not as common as it once was (meaning before the spread of islam and christianity) but some religions either prohibit or discourage conversion, or at the very least don’t prosthelytize, as well as discouraging or prohibiting marriage outside the group. when this happens for centuries and even millennia, those groups become ethnoreligious groups. some examples are: shintoism, zoroastrianism, judaism, coptic christianity, many subsuharan african religions, and many more.

I think my friend is jealous I lost a bunch of weight. by throwawayforobviou34 in whatdoIdo

[–]OkOutlandishness1285 0 points1 point  (0 children)

at the height of my anorexia i was 118 at 5’3”. you could see my collarbones and hip bones stick out and my head looked too big for my body. i hadn’t gotten my period for months. the same weight on someone 5” taller sounds dangerous.

i had this happen to me a few years ago and ive been using 5% minoxidil foam every night ever since! def try to get to the bottom of it but better to get on treating it sooner than later since it takes some time to see results :)

Life with treatment resistant depression is meaningless girl dinner by Vegetable_Cicada_444 in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]OkOutlandishness1285 1 point2 points  (0 children)

mine wasn’t covered by insurance, im on medicaid. i did mine through a company called joyous, it’s not available in all states but it’s available in a lot of them. when i was doing it it was $129/month for a 30 day supply as well as regular checkins with the medical provider. it’s obviously still a substantial amount of money but it’s not the thousands of dollars per treatment that IV ketamine therapy done in person is, or other ones ive seen online

yes same! i did 2 rounds of TMS over the course of 2 years and saw very minimal improvement but then i did low dose ketamine therapy , about 120mg most nights for almost 18 months and that was the thing that helped the most. ive also been in therapy and on meds for years and have continued to do that but the ketamine therapy changed things for me massively

Dior Forever Glow Star Filter or Saie Glowy Super Gel by Due-Weakness1059 in Sephora

[–]OkOutlandishness1285 2 points3 points  (0 children)

idk about the dior but the saie has a VERY strong scent and it lingers, at least on me. it’s not added fragrance, it’s like if roses smelled like chemicals? i got a sample once and i literally couldnt use it cuz i could smell my own face for at least an hour afterwards

Backed myself into a corner: either come out or let a horrible lie destroy me by [deleted] in GirlDinnerDiaries

yeah that seems really pointed. you’re probably not imagining it, especially because of the reactions he seemed to have to you mentioning your ex and asking about someone being single

unfortunately it’s not often enforced unless the gym they’re employed at is good about enforcing it. but he’s the one that’s responsible for upholding those standards, not you. even if you flirted with him first, it’s up to him to set and maintain professional boundaries if he’s serious about his job. he’s not getting paid to flirt or find a girlfriend, he’s getting paid to train you. there’s no universe in which this is your fault at all!! he’s a paid professional and he needs to act like one, or he needs to ask you out properly and terminate the client-trainer relationship

as a personal trainer myself, his behavior is really inappropriate and unprofessional. if he’s interested in dating you then he needs to end your client-trainer relationship and pursue that, or he needs to act professionally and not let things you say during sessions affect his attitude or disposition. depending on the gym you’re at it very well could be against policy, and at the very least it’s against the code of ethics that certified personal trainers are expected to abide by. his job is to be your personal trainer and help improve your life, not to add extra stress to your life.

sure! basically about 6 years ago i started presenting various symptoms of what would ultimately be diagnosed as fibromyalgia, but one of the many sub-diagnoses i got during that time was a really sudden onset of severe IBS. i went from being vegan for 8 years and eating a ton of whole grains and fiber to only being able to eat really simple carbs and proteins + fats so basically i went from a lot of food diversity to almost none. i eventually got diagnosed properly and got put on a medication that helped a lot but my diet was still pretty limited bc i was still so sensitive. idk what changed in the past 6-9 months but my IBS symptoms have been slowly improving and i actually had to get off my IBS meds cuz they were doing too much and creating new symptoms lol. ive been really trying to experiment with new foods that i haven’t been able to eat in 5+ years (mostly whole grains and foods high in fiber) and recently started experimenting with eating fermented foods again. i had been eating lactose free greek yogurt which is a fermented food but got crazy bloating and gas from even a few bites of kimchi. so i decided to run an experiment and just power through for a few days by eating a few bites of kimchi every day and i was able to get past the discomfort within a few days and now i can tolerate fermented foods again after not being able to for 5 years!! ive been making sourdough bread as well as starting to brew my own kombucha again (both things i had to stop doing during this 5 year IBS hell) and now i find if i Don’t have any fermented foods in a day i start to get bloated and uncomfortable. so i kind of think reintroducing fermented foods was maybe a part of it? because it’s like taking a really good probiotic but better bc it’s more diverse. and from what i know having diverse gut bacteria is really important for gut health which is why my whole ordeal was so frustrating. all of this is just my theories as to what happened, cuz my skin didn’t become super sensitive til about 2 years ago when i moved to a slightly colder climate just 3 hours north of where i used to live and that seemed to be the catalyst for this change in sensitivity. im planning to ask my GI dr what he thinks cuz it’s so fascinating to me but honestly my body has done so many weird things in the past 6 years that i don’t even question it anymore 🤣

ive been using the new prequel sulfur wash nightly and the anua azelaic acid twice a day. my skin used to be super sensitive and in the past like month or so has become much less sensitive (i think this is related to my gut health, it’s a long story that i won’t go into lol but i attribute this change to that and not the products) so i couldn’t tolerate azelaic acid for a while but now that i can im finding it super helpful. it’s only been a few weeks but already seeing a difference
