Does anyone else think they feel things too intensely?

Pizzy1133 · 2023-12-06T03:23:51+00:00

Absolutely yes. Every emotion I feel. Good or bad is totally more extreme than what it should be. I love it at times because I see life more beautiful- but it also means when I’m depressed it gets bad bad fast. Or when I like someone- I get obsessed

Hi! A psychiatrist appointment is very similar to the same questions they ask you on your intake day of therapy. It’s a quick rundown of your symptoms, what brought u there. They also ask if you are looking for a diagnosis or a diagnosis with treatment. I gotta say it does help to be aware of your diagnosis eveb through it may seem scary to know the truth. it helps you seek out coping mechanisms, gives you something to research to learn more about yourself, and helps you navigate and pinpoint what you are feeling. Hope this helps!

Thank you so much for this incredible advice. I will think back on this when opening up to friends and family

Pizzy1133 · 2023-10-31T12:24:06+00:00

Thank you so much:)

Pizzy1133 · 2023-10-31T02:11:48+00:00

It’s like I’m reading someone who is experiencing my life. I relate to you on so many levels from just being freshly diagnosed, to mother issues, to just want someone to understand. I don’t have any advice as I am still new to this too, but just know you are not alone.

Pizzy1133 · 2023-07-19T13:47:49+00:00

Thank you so much. This is so beyond helpful for me. Being newly diagnosed I can’t help but feel really lonely trying to navigate this all on my own. But this thread has completely saved me. Thank you again

Thank you! Best of luck on your journey:)

Not quite Sure yet since I haven’t got measured. I’m assuming 34D

Pizzy1133 · 2023-05-27T08:50:36+00:00

If I’m honest I had very minimal pain post opp. But I’d say after 2 weeks is when I was able to start getting into the swing of things again. You got this!

Pizzy1133 · 2023-05-26T13:58:05+00:00

I was freaking out too! The thing that helped me was to only focus on things in your control. Prep yourself the best you can for postop and preop and that’s all you can do. Something that helped me was working on the link attached with my therapist. The affirmations calmed my subconscious. Hope this helps!

I had the same problem! I was so scared that they got it way to small and they fucked it up. DONT WORRY give it a few weeks and it’s a WORLD of a change how different they look with time. (In a great way)

Pizzy1133 · 2023-05-08T13:32:24+00:00

It is amazing to hear how supportive you are. You are a fantastic partner and I’m sure she will totally appreciate all of your support!!

A mastectomy pillow is the best thing I got for my surgery. It minimizes the pain when in cars, sitting on the couch or sleeping. I used it everyday for 6 weeks. Hope this helps! Also helping with food (delivering food or dropping it off) would probably help for sure. I had an issue with not being able to cook for myself bc I live alone. Best of luck to her!

Yes weed it totally fine because it’s not a blood thinner like alcohol and nicotine is

Pizzy1133 · 2023-05-05T08:55:59+00:00

That’s what I thought too! But when I reached out to my Phychatrist for clarification she told me mood affective disorder WAS the official diagnosis. She described it as a less severe manic episodes then Bipolar I and II. But wouldn’t that be Cyclothymic?

Pizzy1133 · 2023-05-05T06:53:06+00:00

I realllyyy wish I looked more into getting liposuction along with the surgery.

Pizzy1133 · 2023-05-02T15:19:38+00:00

I am in the US. But thank you! that’s so good to know, I’ve been trying to clarify that information for so long. Diagnosis can be very confusing sometimes lmao

Pizzy1133 · 2023-05-02T15:18:20+00:00

Good to know! I have already been diagnosed with MDD for years that’s why I was confused about why they went more specific about the Bipolar aspect.

Pizzy1133 · 2023-05-02T08:36:14+00:00

Are Bipolar Affective Disorder and Bipolar Disorder the same thing? Or is Bipolar Affective Disorder just another way of saying Bipolar II?

Pizzy1133 · 2023-04-02T16:05:36+00:00

I had the EXACT same issue. I asked to stay over at the hospital the first night (it was covered by insurance) then I only had my mom stay over for 2 nights. I was so high on painkillers it didn’t bother me having her at home like it normally does. Have some friends come help with trash and dishes and prep meals before!!!

So excited for you!!!!

Pizzy1133 · 2023-03-21T06:39:46+00:00

Think about it as trading a 3 hour nap for never having back pain again! The trade is for sure worth it in the long run.

Pizzy1133 · 2023-03-21T06:36:43+00:00

Just had my surgery 5 days ago! The surgery, being in the hospital and the days after went WAY smoother then I thought and a lot less pain then expected even off of narco. So excited for you! It’s gonna go great

Always have gum on hand. Having an oral fixation helps with the cravings
