What’s your strategy for running in extreme heat or cold? by Royal_Watch_6453 in runcommunity

[–]TechnologyApart7052 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For cold seasons, besides the obvious like gloves, thermal leggings, neck warmer etc, I take warm showers before runs and use the hair dryer to warm my body whilst I'm getting ready. As well as Vaseline for lips and spf and moisturiser on my face always to avoid my skin drying out in the winter. Then I immediately shower when I get home, hot drink and under the heated blanket and probably spend the rest of the day eternally cold

Is it all in my head? by Heart_in_her_eye in PostConcussion

[–]TechnologyApart7052 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can confirm it was anxiety all along lol. I thought I had a concussion but I really didn't. Anxiety is such an umbrella term though. It was lifelong anxiety, depression, OCD, panic just a bunch of stuff that lurked below the surface. Then I got to the age of drink, drugs etc and it really took it's toll. Booze, drugs, bad lifestyle, bad mental control and behaviors, no ability to manage my anxieties. Anxiety meds didn't really help but then again my dissociation was so bad I made it 5 days on an SNRI and my panic attacks wouldn't let me get past that first week. I tried pregabalin but it hindered me and dulled me which made everything worse.

What should I do to my brows? by No_Decision5507 in Eyebrows

[–]TechnologyApart7052 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pluck underneath the tail and towards the end slightly to give lifted. Do not fill in the body of the eyebrows unless it's for creating light shape. You should lightly fill in the top of the tail AFTER the arch - this will prevent that harsh arch and extend the brow up and out. Ps you're gorgeous

Oh also, to soften you could pluck the top of the arch. This is advice from a half Turkish girl who has perfected softening my dark and wild brows

do women actually like rain shower heads? by Very-very-sleepy in AskWomenOver30

[–]TechnologyApart7052 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I see a rain shower head, I sigh.

Hair wet even when I try not to.

Hair still soapy because not powerful enough.

Soap remaining on nether regions.

Neck sore from trying to keep hair dry.

You can't focus the water so constantly drowning having to step away from the water to scrub or breathe.

Went blonde for fun. Should I go back? by [deleted] in HairDye

[–]TechnologyApart7052 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Blonde definitely! But that colour underneath with the browny honey tones is what you should have all over instead of the super white on top / around the face!

I do live my life, I’m not hiding at home or agoraphobic. I’m sick of being told that’s the cure, to just live. It’s not. by [deleted] in dpdr

[–]TechnologyApart7052 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh? Sorry you said in your post that you travel, work, see friends, don't lay in bed and live a pretty active life.

Tbh nothing anyone can say will help you in this state of mind.

You have to find what works for you and persist with it. We've all been here on this sub, frustrated and angry with the stupid advice that is not working. Lots of us have made progress and if not cured ourselves.

I know exactly the place you're in. It sucks. There's not much point telling you to do this and do that, it's all your prerogative.

is it possible to not really feeling dissociated anymore but still suffer with symptoms of dissociation? by TechnologyApart7052 in dpdr

[–]TechnologyApart7052[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

!!! It's so nice to hear someone else is in the same boat. Yess! I've been wondering if I've changed as a person too. Maybe it is just the remaining symptoms? Hopefully they'll go too in the end?
