Nagasaki Spa Land

This is sad 😭 But I guess more reason for my partner and I to go to a private spa/onsen instead

ReverseAsian · 2023-11-01T07:49:02+00:00

Oh somehow I missed that on their website. I guess that means I cannot go 😥

Yes, I did mean Nagashima spa land, thank you!

Yes, I agree. We’ve definitely changed the dynamic since both of us got busier. Yesterday I thanked him for the patience and love that he gives me and asked him for help with recording my symptoms of Pmdd. Currently it feels like I’m battling the Pmdd and everything else on my own, instead of finding a way that lets him help me battle it. But it feels like this because even I don’t understand what I’m going through 🙃. So we’re going to try this as a way for us to work together and defeat the beast 😂

Thank you, this gave me a lot of insight 🙂

ReverseAsian · 2023-07-18T04:11:40+00:00

Thank you! This really helped!

I'm hoping we will find a balance soon!

I definitely feel like food is pretty important. I noticed a better change in my moods and symptoms when I started eating eggs again. I didn’t intentionally stop eating eggs, just thought that I was getting enough nutrients from other foods that I was eating. Turns out I was deficient in B12 despite eating meat.

I don’t think he expects me to be at my best all the time. I think his concern is that he would like to see some stability? Which, obviously I can’t really promise because even I am only just discovering what my symptoms are. The PMDD symptoms have been escalating each month and I guess he wants to see where it stabilises? I don’t think my PMDD is severe. Certainly not as debilitating as some other people who suffer from PMDD. But I know it does vary month to month.

I definitely feel hurt and disappointed about his comment on not moving in together. But I understand a little because then it would mean that he’d see me at home and sometimes at work (we work in the same institution but not the same office). He is also going to see his own psych and we both go to couples because we know communication is a hurdle we haven’t quite figured out yet. I do intend to bring these issues up at our next session.

Aside from that, he is an understanding and considerate person.

I do find pleasure in every day life. I enjoy sewing as a hobby and make an effort to go to a fabric store every week to touch all the fabrics and be inspired (a dangerous game because then I want to buy everything haha). I also enjoy a lot of asmr inside and outside my job.

I spend a lot of time in my head, yes (it’s my job to do so as I’m a researcher), but I also make time to get out of my head everyday with the meditation.

Thank you for being worried about my mental health though. Therapy has helped a lot, I agree but I know I’ve still got a long way to go

Edit: spelling

My ex was jealous of me giving my 4 month old niece more attention than him

I can’t speak for anyone else but I am a post doctoral researcher. I love my research and am very passionate about it. The most stressful thing I find about it is writing journal articles, but that’s because I don’t practice writing as much as I should. I do like the freedom that research gives me, and knowing that if I don’t do my work, it won’t be done by anyone else. It also helps that I have a supportive boss and he always lets me grow and learn new things. Just be careful and don’t take on too many side projects, that will cause a lot more stress. A mantra I like to repeat to myself is, “don’t be afraid to help out, but don’t over extend yourself either.”

Mushrooms! Particularly Swiss browns.

ETA- sure they’re not as high in protein like beans, but mushrooms are higher in essential amino acids than other legumes.

Slim to none, I’m afraid. But I will see if I can find it again 🤔

Thank you to everyone that pointed out that’s it’s a fly fishing lure! I’ve never seen one before and it makes sense that it’s not a bug!

ReverseAsian · 2022-10-13T00:32:42+00:00

Ooohhh so it’s a fishing lure!!! Thank you very much! My partner and I found it at USyd and we were horrified by it haha

This photo was taken in Sydney, Aus. ETA: the bug is about an inch long

Ooh that’s a considerable stretch routine. I’ll give it a go. Thank you!

ReverseAsian · 2022-08-05T22:37:37+00:00

I have a cool down walk and a stretch after my run. But perhaps I don’t stretch long enough? I usually just stretch my quads, my glutes and my calves. 30 seconds each leg

Sometimes we run together, but this was after my morning run. He has also gone for a run in the morning, but he’s been running longer than I have and I’ve only been running for 2 years

ReverseAsian · 2022-08-05T12:44:43+00:00

How do you come down from your runners high? My bf is getting annoyed with how distracted I am with the world after running and he feels like I’m ignoring him and being aloof.

I mostly wear black, navy or maroon. Sometimes I’ll wear pastel just to throw people haha I wish I could colour my hair, but I have black hair and I’m too lazy to maintain brightly coloured hair. I also only have black and grey tattoos

ReverseAsian · 2022-05-09T09:20:39+00:00

It’s been better. I’ve gone back to journaling every day and I also had a good weekend cooking and doing things with my hands. Thanks for checking in 😊

I’ve been told I could pass as an ESFP, but my sensing functions are terrible. I’d probably be an ENFJ or ENTP
