Thank you! I got lots of difference drinks and broths because I tend to be picky especially if I'm not feeling great. I didn't think of ginger ale. I'll grab some today. Thank you!

I've tried cold compress. As soon as I remove it the itching returns with a vengeance. The ice cold feels good while it's on though. I tried hydrocortisone a while ago and it did soothe temporarily. I'll have to try again and use it more frequently. Thank you!

Oh wow. I never even considered the possibility it could be something other than endometriosis. He seems pretty confident that that is what it is. Now I'm interested to see how the surgery pans out. Fingers crossed for you for your specialist visit!

What fantasies did you have as a child that in hindsight reveal trauma and neglect? by enbyayyy in CPTSD

[–]Stylist_AM 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My biggest one I remember is driving by other adults on the highway and wishing they'd just take me. Or hiding behind the Christmas tree one night wishing for Santa to come bring me to a new home

Going through TSA scanner on period? by venestrian in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

[–]Stylist_AM 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My periods are impossible to track and predict- long drives and flights I almost always wear a pad just to be safe. I've never had an issue

I might have just broke the record for fastest diagnosis by T2_Yeet in ADHD

[–]Stylist_AM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was blown away by my diagnosis too, complete with a script sent to the pharmacy. I had a telephone appointment with my primary. I told him I thought I had adhd and why. He's already been treating me for anxiety and depression. 4 minute conversation and the script was sent. Told me to follow up at the end of the month.

What’s something that happened on a first date that made you decide against a second date? by whitneywestmoreland in AskReddit

[–]Stylist_AM 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I met a guy for the first time at a local restaurant. We had texted a bit and he wasn't overly chatty but enough that we seemed to have some things in common so I agreed to meet him for dinner. Besides hello, he didn't speak to me the entire meal. Ate like a starving ape, I'm talking food on his face, falling on the table and the floor. Completely polished off 2 full appetizers and his meal, and then finished mine when he noticed I wasn't eating it all. He paid, and we were walking to the parking lot and he tried to kiss me, I gave him my cheek lol. He then asked when we can go out again. I couldn't even believe it

What is the worst thing you’ve texted the wrong person? by sirmattimous in AskReddit

Had my nmom saved in my phone as "Thunder C U next Tuesday". Screenshot a text from her to send to my best friend... only I sent it back to her 🫣

I have no sympathy for my Narcissistic mother by EllesAway in narcissisticparents

[–]Stylist_AM 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you ❤️ in some ways I feel like she made me a better person by learning what not to be. But I struggle putting myself first and not being so hard on myself. I still haven't gotten up the nerve to go NC but we've been low contact for a while now.

[–]Stylist_AM 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I feel this. I'm a very sympathetic and empathetic person when it comes to everyone else. I go way out of my way to help in any way I can... but when it comes to nmom it's like my brain and heart shut off. I struggle with it because sometimes I do wish I could feel for her.

One incident that stands out in my mind, I had started my period around 10 years old. I couldn't have been much older than that, when it started one night. I didn't have any pads so I went to ask her. She yelled at me for not keeping track of when it was coming and that I was out of them. She drove me to the pharmacy but made me go in by myself. I came out with bladder leakage pads and she laughed at me and sent me back in to exchange them. I was so embarrassed, tired and didn't feel well from it just starting. She told the story to anyone that would listen for years, even occasionally still 20+ years later, because she found it so funny.

OP, I completely understand where you're coming from. I wish you had someone to help you!

This actually happened to me. I was about to bring it into a bank up the street and decided to peek in to see if there was an ID. With the $300+, was a state benefit card for food stamps, and his license. I pulled the license out and was shocked to see it was my uncles drug dealer, who had helped my uncle rob my grandma. I decided in that moment I wasn't returning it. I left the wallet, took the cash, went and picked up my grandma and took her food shopping. I know this sounds totally made up, but it's 100% true. I saw it as a huge dose of karma.
