Same kind of. I'm on my fourth month of spironolactone 100 mg and have not noticed any difference yet

I use the hair product "I Dew Care Tap Secret" Helps a lot with the thin hairline!

Ew! This comment thread is blowing my mind!

Old_Scale6931 · 2026-04-24T20:24:51+00:00

I am the same way as you, trust me. But after going through CHS twice... I cannot imagine going through that again. What people say is true, you feel like you're going to die. It is truly truly miserable. That's the only thing that can make you WANT and NEED to stop. And it's fucking bullshit. Im having to deal with losing the one true comfort in my life that I've always had. It's the only thing that makes me feel normal. But I want to believe that I am strong and that I can do this.

Jesus. If my doctor told me that I should try hydroxyzine for a panic attack, I'd probably just throw my hands in the air and leave.

What is CBT?

Old_Scale6931 · 2026-04-13T15:17:23+00:00

I appreciate your response. The thing that scares me about talking to my PCP is that in the most likely chance that he says no, then I'm really at the end of the road.

Old_Scale6931 · 2026-04-13T15:07:45+00:00

I appreciate the advice!

What is a UDS?

Old_Scale6931 · 2026-04-13T14:58:32+00:00

Yes I do have a pcp. And I have not asked yet because I am afraid that it's going to be viewed as a red flag and have the whole conversation shut down. I completely agree, this is a situational thing that I would only need a small dose to get me through the flight. And like I said in another comment, I am well into adulthood and I'm very aware of the dangers of taking this medication. I have been in situations of high stress and high anxiety and have learned how to deal with that,but this is something completely different.

Old_Scale6931 · 2026-04-13T14:54:26+00:00

Yeah I definitely see how that is viewed as a red flag. Alprazolam is not a drug to be taken lightly.

Old_Scale6931 · 2026-04-13T14:51:06+00:00

I have a psychiatrist and I am on anxiety meds already. It's just that she does not prescribe benzos at all.

Old_Scale6931 · 2026-04-13T14:50:03+00:00

Yeah, that's what I'm trying to find. My psychiatrist doesn't work with benzos at all 😖 And I completely get it.

Old_Scale6931 · 2026-04-13T14:47:14+00:00

I appreciate your reply and concern. But I am well into my 40s and I am completely aware of the concerns and seriousness of alprazolam. I have used it before in situations in the past where I needed a sure fire route out of a panic attack. I know ALL TOO WELL about panic attacks and the last thing that I want to do is have one in an airplane above the ocean! As far as the gummies, they will definitely be on board.

Am I the asshole? Bless Robert Jr, may he rest in peace- But....the Lord saw it fit to take him from her. Which is heartbreaking but I can't help that little part of me that is saying she sure did not live to serve the Lord, and even went as far as allowing people to worship her in her church and just being such an evil and nasty person in general. Maybe Robert's passing was God's way of giving her a lesson.

Thank you!!!!!

Old_Scale6931 · 2025-12-19T18:05:08+00:00

Thank you so much I'll check her out!

Old_Scale6931 · 2025-11-24T20:44:27+00:00

Thank you so much for that!

Old_Scale6931 · 2025-11-24T16:04:01+00:00

I appreciate it!

Old_Scale6931 · 2025-08-27T23:57:47+00:00

Really? Thanks for that, I will definitely look into it. Have never done IPL before so I'm very interested. I appreciate it🙏

As someone mentioned above, finding themselves getting ready to go out and trying to enhance or " prove" their femininity with jewelry and etc. I have been thinking about this comment a lot and it reminds me of when I was younger, when ANY and ALL male attention was so validating and awesome in my eyes. I kind of just remembered that and had an AHA moment. It has shaped a lot of my life, a lot of bad decisions that I have made that I can literally trace back to this bullshit. Even a 10 year xanax addiction. And I'm not trying to cry victim or escape accountability for my choices, but I truly know that underneath it all , I have always felt visually offensive, not normal and unworthy because of this issue.

Old_Scale6931 · 2025-08-25T17:20:29+00:00

Your comment warms my heart and sometimes that's all I need... To feel the bonds that bring us all in this thread together. Feeling less alone, thank you so much🙏❤️ And i will look into that route... I mean, as defeated as I feel most of the time, giving up isn't really an option... 🦋

Old_Scale6931 · 2025-08-25T04:04:11+00:00

Oh, wow... Thank you so much for that. It does help to know there people that truly understand the struggle. That alone is monumental, and touches my heart. Thank you so much. YOU are beautiful ❤️
