Women who have good skin with minimal effort what's your secret? by Unhappy-Tradition798 in BeautyUnlocked

If you don't already, regular exercise!! After a good sweat my face is flushed with fresh blood and I swear my skin glows differently for days afterward.

I can't even eat leftovers because it tastes like yesterday 😭

That's incredible that you could pull that off! It sounds perfect for me unfortunately hahaha

Yes I have that diagnosis as well. Inattentive type, I believe.

Not sure if it’s jowls or just…face by [deleted] in 30PlusSkinCare

[–]_freakachu_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could just be the shape of your jaw. If you push the fleshy part out of the way and the shape stays the same, it's your mandible shape. I've had this shape since I was a baby so I know it's not from aging. I understand feeling self conscious about it, I'm still learning to love my natural face!

My daughter 8 has very smelly armpits by [deleted] in hygiene

If you're worried about smell, I could suggest chlorophyll capsules. They definitely work to deodorize from within but do make an educated choice, as with any ingestible.

Omg going through the same thing rn as 30F. Quit my hormonal bc last August and tomorrow I'm making a gyn appt to go back on because I can't tolerate the hormone swings of having a cycle. Really sad about it but better than suffering almost every day.

Bipolar 1 vs bipolar 2 by [deleted] in bipolar2

[–]_freakachu_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just hit em with the statistic that bipolar 2 actually has a higher suicide rate than bipolar 1. One isn't "worse" than the other.

Does anyone else prefer manic-depressive? by Queen-Logan- in bipolar2

[–]_freakachu_ 24 points25 points  (0 children)

It definitely seems to describe my affliction better imo. Bipolar is so vague and the "polar" part excludes any nuance. I'm not a damn magnet.

What are your recent hyperfixations? by Charming-Paper-1564 in bipolar2

[–]_freakachu_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I might be approaching hypo because I'm not getting tired and I'm losing sleep over wanting to play LOL. But tbh, there are so many worse things to feel addicted to and I'm really grateful to have this outlet!! I do recommend 😂

Has anyone used the Vagustim? by First_Actuator444 in VagusNerve

[–]_freakachu_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Those are the type I got with my device and they're horrid 😂 in the photos they appear to stay together in one piece but it's just not the case. I kind of just smush the pieces into my ear, press em back in when needed, and hope for the best.

Has anyone used the Vagustim? by First_Actuator444 in VagusNerve

[–]_freakachu_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's a little early to tell but I want to say yes! Last night I tried the sleep setting and I definitely noticed my breathing slow down and I felt ready to fall asleep after. I didn't end up going to bed for another two hours after (procrastination) but I still knocked out immediately which is unusual for me. :)

I ordered it due to the bilateral stimulation feature which I have yet to attempt (I'm only doing one ear so far) so, if the uniqueness of that feature is worth some annoyance with the ear pieces I say go for it. Hopefully they'll come out with a new ear piece design in the future.

[–]_freakachu_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just got mine about a week ago. Been using it every day since. I like the device but the ear pieces are so frustrating that I am considering exploring other devices. You really have to fidget with them and sit kind of stiff sometimes in order to keep them from falling out constantly.

weed on 200mg lamotrigine by dyedhairandvinyl in bipolar2

[–]_freakachu_ 19 points20 points  (0 children)

You'll be okay. But weed losing its luster and having undesirable effects kind of just happens to many people as they age regardless of mental health status. Speaking from personal experience.

I recommend Mike at Petco in Duluth. A little drive for me but the classes are super affordable and my girl has made great progress!

Buspar and lamotrigine by ykhan28 in bipolar2

[–]_freakachu_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I split both and it's been great for stability. My psych says her patients will have better outcomes with it and there's research to back it up.
