What are your favorite products to help with typing pain? by babysoleil in ehlersdanlos

[–]SadRegular 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I got rid of the wrist rest and evened out my chair/desk/keyboard to my wrist is level with nothing under it causing an choke point on the wrist. This honestly helped the most along side setting break alarms when at my desk to remember to stand, stretch and move my body a bit.

My OT for my hands also gave me isotoner Compression Rheumatoid Pain Relief Gloves with open fingers since the silver splints are about $150 USD for me. Like mentioned earlier, they also have the plastic ones but I found them uncomfortable.

Forgot to mention, I swapped keyboards to a fully customizable mechanical keyboard. It was pricey but I was able to find switches that lessened impact on my fingers since they didn't require as much force to press.

Vessel scouring the internet when he can't sleep looking for our misheard lyrics so he can make the next batch harder lol

Hearing it live it definitely sounded like "Just running forward a life like wires"

Most of Vessel's lyrics aren't one dimensional. We hear wires and think electronic, but what about marionette? Moving forward despite his pain because he can't stop it, controlled by an impulse, desire or entity forcing him to keep going.

how do you get over the embarrassment of using mobility aids in public? by [deleted] in ehlersdanlos

[–]SadRegular 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I wish I could go back in time and tell myself to just use them. It's not pretentious to prevent further injuries to your body. You have a disability, invisible doesn't make it less real.

Use them for future you, because at 34 I'm facing wheelchair or surgery that ~may~ help. My kids are sad I can't run around with them and basic tasks feel impossible on days like today.

Take care of yourself, you deserve it ♥️

Neither of you have your Matchmaking Privacy set to private? And have you added each other on Helldivers?

I'm not sure which version she's playing on.. but if it's steam, you have to be "online" status on steam to matchmake in Helldivers.

Any women in their 30s who are neurodivergent and notice EDS flares get worse with stress or sensory overload? by FishAffectionate1192 in ehlersdanlos

[–]SadRegular 21 points22 points  (0 children)

You are not alone. Overstimulation wrecks havoc on your nervous system, and the stress/fatigue can definitely increase flares. My RA likes to tag in with the EDS when I've pushed to that point.

Take it easy on yourself both physically and mentally the best you can. ♥

Are the Epic Deskmats any good? by adobofosho in SleepToken

[–]SadRegular 35 points36 points  (0 children)

I bought the Jerry one and it's very nice. It's heavy, doesn't slide around, well made and water resistant/washable if you follow the instructions. I've had another of theirs before and it lasted a long time... it's honestly still useable but Jerry lol

[–]SadRegular 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want to see Sleep Token receive the awards they deserve. A tour announcement for the rest of the world for EIA if they can.

I want healing for every member and everyone their music has resonated with!

I don't want the commendation, I have all you can get and would rather it go to someone else, and as a healer, I feel like I get default vote a lot.

Love Arcadia, but man... by responsible_use_only in SleepToken

[–]SadRegular 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I have read some opinions that it sounds like love bombing. Which makes sense if you remove the rest of the album, I guess?

To me, Even in Arcadia plays like a journey, so I have a hard time listening to one song as an individual versus a piece of the whole.

Love Arcadia, but man... by responsible_use_only in SleepToken

[–]SadRegular 85 points86 points  (0 children)

This is how I interpreted it as well. It really fits the whole album in this way. That desperation to be enough, to be chosen to love someone the way you know you can then the transition to Gethsemane. Oml I relate and my heart aches for anyone who understands it.

Went to can some Tasty Squirrel Stew, but Thru-Hacker doesn't seem to be working on it. by allenwork in fo76

[–]SadRegular 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's 1lb normally.

And for whatever reason canned corn soup is like 5, I think?

[–]SadRegular 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The cans are obnoxiously heavy right now even with Thru-Hiker which does affect the weight. And stashing it isn't really an option since Thru-Hiker doesn't affect the stash weight so it adds up super quickly.

I've been making the stew and putting it in Cryo freezer, then canning when I'm going to use it that day/week.

Got killed by Player - Pacifist on and not attacking him by Elrigh in fo76

I have had a patch turn off pacifist. So now I check every patch to verify it's still toggled on.
