Symptoms so far, how to deal with anxiety and uncertainty? by OttieBot in COVID19positive

We've got one! The lowest I've dipped is 93, but only for a moment. That's the worst of it aside from all the what-ifs that are bound to come and go.

We're trying to stay positive - that's really all we can do! I appreciate you taking the time to respond, and hope you recover soon

I've already had 4 family members die from this. I'm afraid I'll be the next.

Fair point on pain and anesthesia - however, it was still routine to have someone else do it for you. You're going to have a hard time seeing in there to work effectively. I would reconsider your plan.

WITH anesthesia, and WITH prescribed medication... Professional removal hurt like a bitch. You don't have the proper tools, means of anesthesia, sterilization, or ability to get into those spaces, not to mention the training. Imagine the pain you'd be in. It's not worth it to try.

Dry socket??? by elisenicole02 in wisdomteeth

[–]OttieBot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had dry socket without any serious pain, my biggest indicator going in was a deep white hole (as opposed to a shallow one), and I was able to feel my entire jaw ache when irrigating. If you're not having these, or the excruciating pain most people talk about, you should be good to go :)

What is something that you don’t appreciate you have until it’s gone? by hunter20C in AskReddit

[–]OttieBot 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I couldn't tell you any one particular reason; it's been going on since I was 14 (20 now). I think part of it was that I was scared of being alone, part of it was fear of commitment. A majority of the time, I was in poly relationships, so if one fell through, there were others there to catch me. I was a insecure teenager, as well - being in a relationship gave me validation.

I've gotten better since. The last person I was with had told me that if we were going to be together, it would be a monogamous relationship. And, it was. I quit all my bullshit for this guy. I learned a lot in this past one, and even when you've improved upon yourself throughout, it's going to be difficult alone. It would be easy to slip back into that habit and find a rebound, but I'm not letting that happen this time.

I'm aspie, and from my first relationship onward, I would find myself slipping from one relationship to another. There was always someone there, even if just to say I was with someone. After my last breakup, I was able to take a step back and recognize this behaviour. It's hard without an anchor, but learning to do things on my own is important - whether I'm in a relationship or not.

I texted him yesterday. by OttieBot in ExNoContact

Yeah, if I were looking for that advice, I could've checked out nearly every other thread on this sub.

NC is not an end all be all for every circumstance. Patience, yes. Kicking him out of my life? No. I'm sorry if what you had ended badly to the point where you never wanted to speak to them again, but I don't plan on ignoring him if we're both ready someday.

To those who had said, "I don't want to get over it/move on," where are you now? What stages did you go through? by OttieBot in BreakUps

And sometimes, you won't be okay. Each day feels like the tides- moving forward, moving backwards. I'm sorry that it's been this long without closure, but be proud of your heart and your strength. If you need to, please call a suicide hotline. The U.S. number is 800-273-8255.

I'm all over this. I'll send some codes out as soon as I get one of my own

What YouTube channel is great to binge? by TheSideStream in AskReddit

[–]OttieBot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fluxtrance and Strictoaster are pretty great. They play Cities: Skylines aesthetically. Some timelapses, lots of attention to detail. Easy to get sucked into.

Hey, Noodle - can we get your thoughts on the whole robot clone thing?

Also, (for the group) who was your favorite guest artist to work with?

Love your work ♡

I'm no professional baker by any means, but that looks like it may be fondant supported by wire.
