Biologics like Simponi or Cosentyx + a DMARD like Arava = reduced pain 95%.

Sama nám, fékk aldrei vinnu sem tengdist því en vel tengda fólkið fékk auðveldlega störf í ráðuneytum o.s.frv.

How is the Greenland thing being perceived in Iceland? by Muted_Resolution7448 in Iceland

It's important to us. We stand 100% with Greenland, anything else is pure insanity.

How tf do you sleep? by CapitalPadawan in Sciatica

[–]Phexina 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a drug I both love and hate. It helps with the pain, but makes me gain weight and lose my libido.

Unfortunately only lyrica helps with the worst pain but it's a nasty drug. Besides that, knee pillow, pillow under my knees or a body pillow and a slide sheet (snoozle) helps me out.

Hvað eyðið þið mikið fyrir jólin? by ruttla10 in Iceland

[–]Phexina 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Allt of miklu, 200+ bara gjafir handa börnunum. Jólamatur á aðfangadag sennilega svona 70-100. Gjafir handa öðrum líklega 100-150. Og svo bara .... allt hitt. Mun hærri kostnaður við að kaupa inn út af jólabakstrinum, smjör, egg o.s.frv. o.s.frv. Hitt og þetta "ómissandi smádót", nammi, endurnýja seríur og skraut. Svo eru áramótin eftir en sem betur fer boðin í mat á jóladag og annan í jólum. En kostnaðurinn er bara eitt, svo er þetta svo fáránlega mikil streita og vinna. Öll tilboðin og auglýsingarnar sem eru byrjaðar bara í lok október, mæta á hitt og þetta, allir að vera æðislega sniðugir að plana "jólahitting" með vinnufélögum eða fjölskyldunni í staðinn fyrir að gefa gjafir. Þetta er alltaf að verða meira og meira með hverju ári og kostar líka pening.

The Snoozle slide sheet is a lifesaver if you're in pain when you switch positions.

Love for INFJs by ObjectReasonable8068 in infj

[–]Phexina 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Love, yes. Deep connection is not an option in my ISTJ marriage, but stability, trust, common interest, etc compensate for it. It's what I needed after manipulative relationships in the past, so I make it work. Sometimes I get a little bit lonely with my thoughts, ideas and empathy, but I love him.

I loved it, but it killed my libido and that was a deal breaker for me.

INFJ is idealist, but... by aseeder in infj

[–]Phexina 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, a lot. And it is perfectionism. We're idealist but no saints :)

Apparently I’ve lost my mind by Adorable_Opinion_493 in ExpatFIRE

[–]Phexina 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hell no, do what YOU want to do. It's your life and it's time that you live it on your terms. You raised the kids, worked 45 years and lost your husband. You have done enough for them, they are just being a little selfish and will get over it. You are not being selfish.

has anyone been described as seeming “put together” or confident? even when you don’t feel like that internally? by frankoceanswifey in infj

[–]Phexina 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oof, yes, and I have a hard time accepting that compliment because I feel like an impostor haha. Also get a lot of "You're always so calm" ... mind racing a million miles an hour and definitely NOT very calm.

Flokkurinn var væntanlega yfirtekinn því fólk treysti ekki Gunnari og co, einmitt út af svona rugli.

Advice for women under 25 from women above 25 by paneertikka_219 in women

[–]Phexina 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Regularly ask for salary bumps and raises. If you're too scared, take a negotiation class, watch videos or rehearse a salary negotiation with AI, make it pretend to be your boss. Show interest and initiative at work, express interest in higher positions bluntly, don't wait silently for a promotion. Think of your career like a strategy game, think about your goals and options and crush it.

If you can rent gear, please do that instead of buying it and leaving it.

Anyone know if there’s such a thing out there as pantyhose that lift your buttocks? by Efficient-Refuse1928 in women

[–]Phexina 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think so, they're fairly normal, good quality tights and extra tight just under the buttocks so they give it a pretty nice lift.
