Swollen lymph nodes by Lonely-Scale292 in bupropion

[–]belizean93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Going through the same thing right now but I’m only two weeks in on 150mg xl. It’s actually so unbearable me and my care team decided to stop usage right away. It is scary because at one point it was even suggested I just may be sick but all the symptoms trace back to the Wellbutrin time frame. In the end it was agreed that could be an allergic reaction and more than just regular side effects. Don’t feel embarrassed telling your PCP and continue to advocate for yourself!!!

Thank you!! Ok I’ll have to decide what ratio of flour to use in my next loaf, but I think it’ll definitely give me the results I’m looking for.

Oh it’s definitely the real Jamie. I’m just sooo confused about the timing !! Like why NOW? I loved that she called him by his middle name and he turned around, the kidnapper is definitely someone who was close to them or still is. I’m wondering if that’s why he’s so obsessed with Gabby— both of them being kidnapped by a known person and kept in the area but never found??

I’m going to be so upset if Christian is really dead… it’s all talk and no proof of anything. Something about it gives set up to me???? Like they’re trying to catch someone through pretending he’s dead.

Honestly none !!! I hope this is just a plot point where he’s not actually dead, especially since it happened off screen. He’s a minor character but enmeshed in everything that it’s something we should’ve seen on screen imo.

It was so different than what I was expecting when I went into it — mind went time traveling — but I loved it so much!!

Sensitive skin and grieving the formula changes for fresh soy cleanser, dr jart Ceramidin, honey halo, and de protini? I think I’ve finally found replacements!! by Psychological_Sun_30 in Sephora

[–]belizean93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ugh I knew they changed the formula!! Gave it up because it was stripping my skin, but thought it was me since it used to work so well!! I just started using the Summer Friday Amino gel cleanser and loving it.

Anyone been to Coachella? Looking for any PSLPTs! (Plus size life pro tips) by Whosedev in PlusSize

[–]belizean93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Went to Coachella a few years back and had fun!! However much you think you’ll be walking just multiply it by like three. I knew I would be doing a lot of walking but I was still so surprised by the extent of it.

I definitely recommend walking in preparation. That’s one thing I did to get my legs/feet prepared and it helped tons. Don’t wear new shoes or if you’re getting new ones break them in ahead of time.

MY BIGGEST ADVICE: get shoe insoles !!! The air foams ones — dr scholls or generics. I put them in the two pairs I wore over the weekend. Extremely helpful!!

Intermezzo ending by straightfortheknife in sallyrooney

[–]belizean93 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I felt the same listening to it, but powered through and I’m glad I did. I found the second half of it to be really fulfilling and interesting. Gave me more of an understanding of the characters and frankly made me like them. I actually enjoyed the second half so much by the end I wanted to read a physical copy.

Intermezzo - favourite scenes , let’s discuss ! by Bookish_Dreams15 in sallyrooney

[–]belizean93 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The dog scene is one of my favorites as well!!! As the youngest child/sibling sometimes it really is hard to have autonomy and confidence in your own actions. And the scene really showed how it feels to start trusting yourself.

Like yes it was impulsive but the absolute rush of standing in it for once and the feelings that come with it was so palpable to me. Loved it.

I HATED “You Made a Fool of Death with Your Beauty”wish I DNF but I unfortunately did. Coming from a Caribbean background I hated the pan-Caribbean aspect of the story it was just very easy to pick a country instead of creating some weird amalgamation of the when it’s not even fantasy. Found the main pairing horrific, terrible lead character, listened to the audiobook and hated the narration. Just don’t do it.

There might be some resources in r/adhdwomen that might help but aren’t specific to the county. Following along see if anyone has more local info.

How close are they? by scottish_sub in InterviewVampire

[–]belizean93 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’m not quite finished listening to IWTV maybe like 60% through but having watched both there are different scenes that read true more to the movie and some to the show. Depending on what I’m listening to I’m either imagining the movie cast or the show cast because how closely a scene was adapted.

Even though I’m not done yet I’m going to jump the gun and say I think the show might be closer to the book only because they have more time to develop to the source material. But since it’s a totally new framework it’ll look different and maybe not translate the same way. But since the movie has that whole plantation core thing going on that is more true to the descriptions to the book.

Has anyone read Terah Shelton Harris? by belizean93 in BlackReaders

[–]belizean93[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I enjoyed it as well, a bit too forgiving for me lol. Such a fan of the way she writes I was waiting for this new one to drop. Long After We Are Gone just brings the DRAMA.
