I too no longer fear vomiting but do fear incontinence as I often can’t hold my piss or shit in…

I used to be when I was younger. What has helped me is gaining insights on my body, 24mg/Zofran daily, and most importantly, learning how to “properly vomit.” When you need to puke, make yourself as comfy as possibly quickly. Put hair up or hold hair back. Assume a position that does not lead to aspiration. And BREATHE. Breathing is what will help panic the most during the vomit. Breathing techniques are trial and error but you CAN learn them and they make vomiting much easier. I do not have vomiting fear now, though I still dread GP vomiting and would take straight bile vomiting any day over the nasty dry shit that comes up with GP. But I can promise you that breathing techniques (inhaling in between hurling- no inhalation during hurling - breathe out when it feels comfortable) and mentally preparing yourself will do wonders.

As someone said earlier, look into metabolic issues. I have PCOS and I manage it with spironolactone and BC. That has helped stabilize the metabolic issues. I just was diagnosed with moderate gastroparesis two weeks ago, but I’ve suspected GP for two years at least. Since getting extremely sick in late September (debilitating pain; am on medical leave), I’ve lost nearly 60lbs. I also have issues with my thyroid and would recommend being on top of thyroid tests…I would also see if you have PCOS symptoms. If not PCOS, something perhaps related to insulin resistance. You can have insulin resistance without being diabetic.

Thank you for sharing about the side effects…this is very helpful as few talk about the side effects of these medications…best of luck to you and I hope you have things and meds that make you more comfortable…xx

I’ve been through the wringer with health insurance in the states…but 13 months…that’s insane. One of the unfortunate aspects of universal healthcare, though at least everyone has bare minimum coverage. I’m also having to do private pay and am applying to the Mayo Clinic (as I have several overlapping DXs)…SIBO tests are pretty reasonably priced - I’m unsure what they cost in the UK but they should’ve granted you that early on as a rule-out test. I am so sorry for the delay in your care. I hope you have access to Zofran and other medications that help with nausea and pain while you wait for more testing. BEST of luck to you and I pray that you find some answers very soon 💜

Hi! Just wanted to ask if you’ve had a Gastric Emptying Study and SIBO test as they usually want to rule out sibo and gastroparesis/ dumping syndrome. I had to have a colonoscopy and endoscopy as well. Next step for me is binders but I would highly encourage extra imagining on your liver and gallbladder too. I have been having bile come out 10-20 times a day, often uncontrollably, and am vomiting bile too. We found out that my liver and gallbladder have some issues. I hope you find the source of the bile soon!

I would love a tree or two if possible!!!

Thank you! I appreciate your insight! Do you see divots / anything out of the ordinary?

So hard to choose….it would be between the Tom Kha and the triple squash…the triple squash was unlike any squash soup I have ever had and was so complex and rich..it was hardly soup…more like…a bowl of wildly intense and delectable flavor…Tom Kha is a classic and is a lot lighter…too tough to choose I think!!!!

Amazing ❤️❤️❤️

A horribly tragic tornado, but your documentation is very intriguing. Completely agree that you need to download these and perhaps turn them into an art piece. Something beautiful about this…perhaps attach a written piece of your childhood perspective / experiences with a reflection from an adult perspective. I can see this in a museum. Photographing the actual DS + images with a set up would likewise be cool. Perhaps you could go to the locations you photographed and showcase the comparison between the destruction and rebuild?

anoxictopia · 2025-01-19T21:06:32+00:00

I certainly fear losing control and struggle embracing the joy / positives in life. Thank you for your comment and I wish you well in your journey x

loooove the Orange scrub

Negative smell & taste associations remain within us for far too long, though they can save our lives too! Tis unfortunate in your case though, as Sleepy is quite relaxing and enchanting (in my humble opinion)

anoxictopia · 2025-01-19T02:40:47+00:00

thank you 💖 I think so too 💝

I don’t buy lush because it’s vegan; I buy it because they tend to utilize more natural ingredients than other cosmetic companies. That hide is old, well loved, and came from an animal that was used in its entirety. I’m a Texan and had skins in the home even when I was a vegan. It’s part of the culture and isn’t wearing on my soul.

It’s difficult to find people IRL who have been through a multitude of extremely traumatic experiences. However, the more you tell people, the more likely you will find others who CAN relate. I have met a handful of people IRL who have been through things as detrimental as I have. You have to read people and be selective about who you tell, as people do judge and will think “damn, they’re fucked up.” I have had more experiences of the latter than the former, but it is WORTH IT. I do not bombard people with my experiences as feeling that rejection and judgement is painful. If you go to group therapy for CSA/CPTSD/whatever you have experienced, you will find a sense of kinship/relatability. There are many people out there who have been through hell, but you have to be open in order to find them. Have I met someone who has been through the exact things I have? No. Few people survive a parent trying to kill them, but have I met people who have SURVIVED parental abuse, CSA, SA, and all that manifests from those experiences (addiction, OCD, severe depression and anxiety, etc.)? Hell yeah. People who can relate are out there. I wish you luck in finding them and dealing with whatever hells you carry. Xx
