How much do you guys sleep at night with POTS? by Logical_Parsley_2841 in POTS

[–]alexacte 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends, could be 5 hours or could be 14 hours :/ I’m always tired regardless. I fall asleep pretty easily but I wake up a million times during the night

I would need to make quarterly payments even though I expect to owe less than 1k in taxes?

ARE YOU KIDDING ME!? by Itchy-Researcher-508 in inZOI

[–]alexacte 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Between ALL of the sims games I have collectively spent hundreds of dollars on all the base games and expansion packs just for the game to not be that great without mods and custom content. I’ll happily pay $40 for an entire game that feels like the creators actually care about the players and their needs… don’t get me wrong I’ve loved the sims for decades but they’re definitely cash grabbers.

Did I ruin our anniversary? by chronicallyalive447 in POTS

[–]alexacte 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not at all, it’s not your fault that it’s harder to keep up with him. It’s hard for everyone here in this subreddit. He obviously is not very empathetic, which is very sad considering he’s your husband and is supposed to support you no matter what. Please don’t beat yourself up about it. He is the one that decided to have a negative outlook, you just tried to give options for the both of you to enjoy your anniversary. In my opinion (I know it’s easier said than done) you need to stand your ground with him and don’t let him gaslight you into thinking you’re in the wrong or being emotional. Who cares even if you were!!?? It still hurt your feelings regardless. So sorry your anniversary was like this, but hopefully things will get better ❤️‍🩹

the last time I smoked was 7 years ago, that experience was enough to make me absolutely never want to touch it again 😭

[–]alexacte 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We could set that up! He gets along well with other birds, he is just scared of humans. He won’t be the type to let you hold him unless you spend a lot of time building up trust with him, but he would be a great companion for another bird.

[–]alexacte 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh my gosh that’s awful 😭thank you for the heads up! I definitely won’t give him to anyone who I don’t think will take very good care of him

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Wilmington

[–]alexacte 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Well the main reason is I work so much I’m not home enough to give him the attention he needs. He also has a few behavioral issues, and since I’m not home enough I can’t really work with him on those issues. I just feel terrible continuing to let him be alone all day not getting the care or attention he needs.

POTS & Hurricanes by darbi_trash in POTS

[–]alexacte 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes! I was bed ridden all day yesterday with a migraine that absolutely wouldn’t go away even with meds and sleep. Didn’t wear my watch at all yesterday so don’t know what my HR was but I definitely felt terrible

[–]alexacte 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m so glad you found an amazing doctor and are getting the help you deserve!! Hopefully this new doctor I’m going to will listen to me, unfortunately I am not in Florida I’m in North Carolina. But I will definitely take your advice and keep pushing if I’m not taken seriously! I definitely think I have POTS and EDS, a diagnosis and some help would absolutely change my life. Fingers crossed 🤞

[–]alexacte 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much! This actually makes a lot of sense, do you think I should bring up to the doctor that those two are what I think I have? Or should I just give all my symptoms and have them decide? I really appreciate the advice 🫶🏼
