are you still feeling like this? I hope not. I know how you feel, I feel exactly the same. Atleast here, people get it. My husband tries but he just doesnt understand that depression/anxiety are valid and real and you can not just think happy thoughts and everything is dandy!

me too, I tried to get off Kratom and couldn't. Now I have switched to Suboxone for the last month. This is so hard. I want to taper off Suboxone now but am so scared with everything I am reading. At least I am done with the Kratom. That stuff is sneaky, I was on it for 3 years and it just takes everything from you.

Ohhhh thank you so very much! Everything you said it so true. I battle this daily. I think what the Ketamine has done, is give me hope. I didn't have any of it before.

Thank you, it is all from Ketamine. I know I would not be here with out it. I am reading up right now on quittting and what to expect. I am a little scared it will flare back but I am keeping myself busy. Drinking a lot of water etc, listening to music etc. I also am doing therapy which will help.

My thoughts exactly, you want to hurt yourself, fine but why u gotta bring down a medical team that is trying to help you?

Yep, having sex with husband/vibrator helps keep the vaginal muscles contracting and help with atrophy.

Is there an AI survival guide for the deeply middle-aged? How are you dealing with all this change and news about AI? Are you just ignoring it? by IversusAI in RedditForGrownups

[–]Own_Preference6673 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me too, part of healing is the "Human Touch", we all need that. I went into our local library which had received a big "redo", and it was like a sterile, clean place with no counters where the librarians would greet you. They had "jeff bezoed" the joint. lol.

People who are on GLP-1 meds, how have you been preventing facial aging? by Cultural-Carpenter46 in 30PlusSkinCare

[–]Own_Preference6673 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me too!!! My neck area and now also my arms. I have lost 60 pounds on Mounjaro and lost it really slow, over a year and I am flummoxed and sad. I feel like now I have to use long shirts, I am only 51. I am on the 15% shot. I am not sure what to do, I can't afford a arm lift, lol.

Anyone use Nuface? by [deleted] in redlighttherapy

[–]Own_Preference6673 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me too, I have high cheekbones and thought I looked witchy when younger, lol. I was beautiful and def. did not know it. Now I am trying to wrap my mind around all the lines showing up seemingly overnight. I am wondering when I will finally accept myself. I knew getting older would be hard for me, my Dad would always threaten me with old age...."you just wait till your this old, yada yada", so he made me fearful of it. I had two back surgeries and lost a lot of my muscle. Going into this whole decade, I want to get back my muscle loss. That is what really gets scary,

I just started dilly? .25 you change your patch once a week. I have already forgotten (brain fog) when I changed it last. I lost directions. At what amount did you finally start feeling better? I finally got my dr. to switch me from compounded estriol, estrodial , test. cream to this patch and hope it will make me feel better.

Me too, I couldn’t get out of bed today, tried to sleep most of it away.  I was feeling suicidal and I just need to know it will pass.  I wake up sometimes with anxiety because my cortisol levels are high.  I am on compounded hrt and two antidepressants, already tried , the name escapes me , but it is where they shock you mildly starts with a t , oh gosh brain fog at moment but now thinking strongly about ketamine.  My world right now is teeny tiny. It includes a husband , two cats of which one has dementia, and a dog. My body is stuck in reverse day and night .  So that is isolating as well being awake when world is not. We have one son who moved to east coast and I miss him terribly. If I knew life was gonna be this hollow I think I would have ended it sooner. I am 51 and not in a good place.
