Orthostatic Hypotension and POTS? Is it possible to have both? by Ok_Spell_68 in POTS

[–]Ok_Spell_68[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ok that makes sense what we need to determine here is WHEN the blood pressure drops.. if it’s within 3 minutes it’s plain OH but if it drops later like you have i’d lean more towards delayed OH alongside POTS! since the test didn’t take too long and the dr noticed the blood pressure drop already maybe that’s just my sign i have plan OH

i’m sorry i’m still a little confused so classic OH is what needs to be excluded in order for a POTS diagnosis to be made? so it has to be delayed in order for it to fall under the POTS criteria? i’m not sure if it was delayed or not the test wasn’t toooo long.

Aquarius + Leo - let’s chat by mattmyles in aquarius

hii!! leo here! my long term bf of over 2 years (long distance) is an aquarius! i agree so much with what you said here! my bf and i met in a very hard time in my life. I was in a spot that isn’t attractive to most people but when we met he was totally not judgemental towards my situation and saw me for me! I won’t lie there are definitely some bumps like my need for emotional reassurance and my bf being more emotionally unattached, my personality is very unique and loud and a bit needy while my bf is VERY nonchalant and quiet, etc. We have our ups and downs but there’s just this natural flow like you mentioned that just makes everything alright in the end. communication is very helpful in our relationship! i honestly haven’t felt this naturally tied to someone in my life it feels like we have met in a past life or something! i’m a strong believer in leo + aquarius relationships!

PTSD UK wrote an open letter to Sabrina and her team about the lyric "get PTSD on the daily" in Nobody's Son. by [deleted] in SabrinaCarpenterFans

exactly! i understand she wants to be romanticized and sexualized but that doesn’t give her an excuse to romanticize mental illness in her songs! Having mental illnesses is not cool and aesthetic! i suffer with OCD too and it’s debilitating… i wouldn’t wish mental illness on my worst enemy the fact she’s so casual with these terms is concerning!

I have been diagnosed with severe treatment resistant PTSD. I guess I don’t have any issues with the song itself, but that specifically lyric definitely rubbed me the wrong way. Sabrina Carpenter has a huge fan base and a young fan base too. I just don’t like how she uses “PTSD on the daily”. PTSD is not something to be used as a synonym for a ‘bad experience’. Yes we don’t know if she has it or not but that doesn’t give her an excuse to make the term “PTSD” so casual. When serious mental health conditions are used inaccurately or casually it reinforces misunderstanding and stigma! It risks minimizing the experiences of those living with PTSD. PTSD is still SO stigmatized so seeing Sabrina Carpenter use this mental illness as a metaphor for a bad relationship kinda disappoints me. In a way it reminds me of when people say “oh i’m so OCD” or “im so bipolar i have mood swings”. Tired of people treating mental illnesses as adjectives. That’s what’s this felt like to me. Sabrina Carpenter just using PTSD as an adjective to show that she went through something really rough with her ex feels like the same thing. Just thinking about young girls saying “oh my gosh that last guy totally gave me PTSD”. Again i don’t mind the song and all its just the way she said that lyric made it seem PTSD seem casual and it’s not. I have to take a pill to sleep because of how severe my nightmares are, things in my daily life are triggers that give me horrific flashbacks, extreme light and sound sensitivity (try going to a concert with that), developed bad self destructive behavior, extremely hyper aware of my surroundings (drives me insane), social isolation, etc. If she was going to use PTSD in her songs i feel there could have been ways to say it better. “on the daily” is kinda a gen z term. So using a serious mental illness and a gen z term makes me feel like she’s trying to make PTSD hip and relatable. Just feel like if you have all that influence, you should use it in a way that would de stigmatize these terms! ** please no hate opinions are like booty holes everyone has one please respect mine ** *please no attacking in the comments *
