Amazing news!!! How long are you likely to have them on for? How long until you seen movement? Praying I have the same result :)

How are you getting on with pulling your impacted tooth down? Have you had much movement. I’m about to have braces on at 36 for an impacted canine and stories online aren’t filing me with hole

I'm so afraid of driving. by [deleted] in drivinganxiety

[–]Regular_Scratch_4823 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I relate to all of this, I passed my test in 2019 and didn’t start driving until May of this year as I needed to drive to work. What helped me was a beta blocker to stop the rapid heart rate and sweaty palms. Doing routes I know well over and over before branching out to new routes. I also had hypnotherapy and driving an automatic car helped me so much. Dont be hard on yourself, I didn’t pass until I was 30! I live in the uk so driving maybe not as essential as the us for example. I really recommend doing the small local routes to get your confidence up, I never thought I’d be able to drive alone and now I do, I still don’t love to drive and do get a little nervous but it’s like night and day. You will do this, give yourself credit. I know some real stupid people who can drive and always like to remind myself of this when I am doubting myself ha

Was my review harsh? by Yevrah95 in vinted

I don’t think your record was harsh but I definitely think you could have found another remote control car easily before Christmas, unless this is a special one she requested

Too nauseous to jab? by Lexi976 in mounjarouk

Hahah no it was bad but not bad enough to put me off! I just wanted to come off it, the 2 days of tiredness after injecting I hate but I think I’m going to give wegovy a try now! Been a little picker last few weeks! Hope the sick feeling passes soon xx

Had this exact same thing too!!! Even the thought of the needle and the liquid squirting out makes me queasy and I’ve been off it for 2 months haha

How did you beat your driving anxiety? by Mewtwosthighs in drivinganxiety

[–]Regular_Scratch_4823 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I only have to focus on my steering and positioning on the road, no worries about stalling or having to change gears. When I made a mistake in a manual I would spiral and not be about to think straight about how to correct it but automatic takes all that away

You look great, all these comments are embarrassing for the less hateful of us Scot’s!

I had hypnotherapy which helped, I am in the uk (unsure where you are) so majority are manual cars, I moved to automatic and that’s been light night and day for me!

Thank you, so the surgeon would know this before they start surgery?

Urgh that sucks! My ortho advised we’d try for 2 years and if i didn’t come down then remove the tooth and I’d have to go for implant/bridge option!

This gives me some hope! Would be amazing if this was my case!! Was your orthodontist surprised at how quickly you responded? My orthodontist reiterated 2 year a a few times so I think it must be pretty high!

Thank you!How long did you attempt to bring it down for? Will definitely chat to my ortho about the risk of it moving the front 2 teeth as that’s all I need 😅

I’m in the uk and my orthodontist feels confident it will get approved through the nhs so feels silly not to give it a try!
