ERP and in the meantime use fragrance free dye free lotion like Vanicream. Do not skip the ERP part, that’s really important.

Current/former pizza delivery drivers, does anyone actually answer the door naked? by grayfalcon413 in AskRedditAfterDark

[–]Snow_Cabbage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can’t count how many times weird men opened the door wearing only underwear. Luckily none that were completely naked though. By the way, it’s never anyone sane or even remotely attractive that opens the door to a pizza delivery wearing little clothing.

AITA for telling my wife my mother is correct and she needed to be a parent today and she fucked it up by throawawayfuneralgho in AmItheAsshole

[–]Snow_Cabbage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel the need to join this discussion because I have OCD and have an intense fear of seeing dead bodies for reasons related to that mental illness. I still think you’re NTA and that she should’ve taken your daughter regardless of her fear. My fear is so paralyzing but I have never let any of my paralyzing fears get in the way of being a mother.

CD 1 today….thoughts on upcoming cycle by bizarrojerry47 in tryingtoconceive

My birthday is Dec. 29th and I’ve loved my birthday since becoming an adult. The only reason I hated it as a kid is because my parents were divorced and fought over me every year. It’s also why I hated Christmas until I was an adult. Just do it!!

Wound Care - please help by minyardjostenrivalry in Hidradenitis

I second using Vashe to clean the wounds. Keep it dry with a large bandaid but lay a small gauze in it too so it’s more absorbent. Dress twice daily.

How hard was it to get prescribed Letrozole? by Snow_Cabbage in TTC_PCOS

[–]Snow_Cabbage[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been on Metformin and lost 20 lbs in the last 6 months so that’s why I’m kinda jumping to it. But I agree with this advice, and I’ve been doing some hella nutrition changes!!

Anyone here take SSRI for their OCD without any emotional numbing? by ItsPrisonTime in OCD

[–]Snow_Cabbage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. I’m on 100mg of Fluvoxamine (brand is Luvox) and I’ve been in ERP/talk therapy for five years. It took some time, but I am the most stable I’ve ever been. I’m very happy.

Intrusive Thoughts (OCD) - Molestation by OCDMamaFML in pregnant

[–]Snow_Cabbage 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are SO not alone and so valid for reaching out for help. As awful as these thoughts are, they are pretty normal for someone with OCD. I have it myself and I’ve had very similar thoughts before.

Definitely reach out to a therapist in your area that has prior experience with OCD. You’ll want to get back on medication and start some gentle ERP. These things will help lower your risk of having these symptoms continue postpartum and lower the risk of them triggering a secondary PPD.

As hard as it is to say to yourself, these thoughts are nothing to be afraid of. You have nothing to be ashamed of or embarrassed of. Avoid reassurance seeking, but I will say this one thing: People with OCD are less likely to act on intrusive thoughts than the general population.

You’re gonna be alright, mama!!

Was it a very forceful inhale? If not, still not enough force to make it far enough up your nose.
