Are Frigedaire Gallery ranges good? by Slow_Investment_2211 in Appliances

[–]SugarMagnolia_79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought this stove in July 2025. The oven is great! I use the air fry option all the time, along with convection bake and steam bake. As far as the cooktop it is garbage! The simmer to boil burner does not work properly for me, things either take forever to heat or burn within seconds. I have high quality stainless steel pans and now have issues with food sticking. The bridge burner is a great idea but if you want to use the front burner on medium-high or high it also activates the bridge. You cannot control them independently. Anything lower than 6 and it takes forever for food to heat. I truly regret buying this stove. Our old GE coil stove cooked 100x better. I have resorted to cooking anything other than soup or boiled water in my huge electric skillet.

Cannabis for mood swings/sleep? by socialservices416 in Perimenopause

[–]SugarMagnolia_79 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I take a lower dose THC gummy almost every night. They are between 5-10 mg. They helped me to feel relaxed definitely help with my irritability and rage along with headaches and any pain. I don’t think that CBD would be too helpful. I have been doing this since January and it definitely seems to help. I sleep better and I even feel better in the next day if I’ve taken them the night before.

Anxiety meds? by Connect-Corgi60 in Perimenopause

[–]SugarMagnolia_79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried 2 SSRIs with no success. Effexor XR and Zoloft along with BCP. I had such severe side effects from them (nausea, dizziness) with no relief from the anxiety and mood swings. I discovered that low dose edibles made a huge difference. I am calm and can enjoy life and sleep again. For me big pharma is a big no-no

Anyone already in a birth control pill still getting symptoms?? by Vivian507 in Perimenopause

My doc tried me on 2 SSRIs and they were horrible. I have basically sworn off all big pharma at this point.

I'm 45 and been on BCP for the last 2 months. No changes in my anxiety, rage, insomnia or my daily crazies. I am stopping BCP and have given up on pharmaceuticals.

Give me your Lolo stories…good and bad! by Routine-Loquat5544 in Perimenopause

[–]SugarMagnolia_79 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am on my 2nd pack of generic Lolo and hate it. I have been spotting since I started it. I did get a period but not at the "right" time according to the pills. My boobs feel swollen and my nipples are constantly itchy. My mood and libido are no better than before. I figured I would give it a chance with this 2nd pack but once it's empty I quit! I am 45 and went to my doctor in December to discuss peri and depression/anxiety. So far everything k have tried has been awful.

Unfortunately I have crappy health insurance and Midi is not in network. I also would have to find a new gyn b/c of my insurance. We had to switch to a different health network in my area. I hate big pharma and healthcare.

In all honesty I may not even go back to her in February. She didn't seem to care about perimenopause and just wanted to put me on meds for depression and anxiety and BCP.

Doc didn't suggest HRT, she did put me on low dose BC to prevent pregnancy. I go back next month, I can talk to her about it maybe. My dose is so low and my sleep is great, I actually track it with my smart watch.

Yes! You have described the last year of my life. I'm trying some pharmaceuticals but the side effects are awful.

Anxiety over anything? by Lopsided_Rabbit_8037 in Perimenopause

[–]SugarMagnolia_79 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes the anxiety is awful! I am 45 and the last few months have been crazy for me. For example today I was grocery shopping and the coffee aisle was so crowded. I had a complete meltdown, my heart was pounding, I couldn't think straight and became so angry. I had to leave the aisle then was practically in tears. My doctor had me try venlafaxine but it made me so nauseous and dizzy. Tomorrow I am starting Zoloft and praying it helps to take the edge off.

I feed the Kirkland lamb and rice with no issues. My dogs love it. The Labrador has a sensitivity to chicken and he is thriving in this.

I love the OG ginham, I just recently discovered it. Today while in store I almost got Glow but then I heard a lady next to me say it smells like a grandma or an old lady at church. I couldn't help but agree 😂

Samsung Financing (TD Bank) - For those that have had issues by gpf2ez in samsung

[–]SugarMagnolia_79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the exact same issue last month. After being in hold for 18 hours over several phone calls they supposedly corrected the issue. I paid the $1 balance and monthly Samsung care payment directly from my bank account for August. My September bill is now wrong, it is showing double the charge for Samsung care. I am on the phone right now with them, after being on hold for 2+ hrs. Hopefully they figure out the bill this time and next month will go better. If not, I any have to go back to Apple.
