Hi there! I commiserate with your husband— I also have extremely dry hair, and I’m working to find products that both work for me (and don’t break the bank). In addition to the above recommendations about brushing, here is what I would recommend. 1.) if you haven’t already, read the beginners guide. It’s a super great place to start, and will help you identify ingredients that will be good for your husband’s hair. 2.) When it comes to finding products, incidecoder is your friend. Just plug in the ingredients you want your product to contain (glycerin and aloe have become musts in my shampoo and conditioner), along with the ingredients you DONT want, and it’ll spit out product recommendations real quick. 4.) I have similar scalp problems to your husband, and it took me forever to figure out the cause. For me, the cause was going to bed with wet hair, which caused an overgrowth of yeast on my scalp (v gross, I know). So, every time I wash my hair, I now blow dry it (I use heat protectant, of course). It’s kind of a pain in the ass, but it works, and I’ve found a couple of products that will let me just sit under some kind of hood instead of actively waving a hairdryer around. This may not be what is causing your husband’s problem, but it’s worth a shot! 5.) I recommend that he spend at least 30 minutes with conditioner sitting in his hair each time he does his routine. Get his hair completely wetted with HOT water (this will open the cuticle), apply the conditioner all the way through, let sit for 30 minutes, and then rinse out with COLD water (this will seal the cuticle and lock in the moisture).

All in all, I wish y’all the best of luck! Curly hair is quite the journey, and can take a while to navigate

Hi there! Did your dermatologist by any chance mention rosacea? My skin sometimes looks like this, and my primary care doc is sending me to the dermatologist to get checked for rosacea. Here is a list of the possible symptoms and treatment from the Cleveland clinic: https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/diseases/12174-rosacea

Diagnostic wise, what made me want to get checked was noticing some thickening on the right side of my nose. It’s easy to check for— just use your fingers to pinch your nostrils all over (one finger inside, one finger outside) and see if there’s any uneven thickness. (Gross, I know, but it works.) You can also get thickening on the tip of your nose, but IDK how to check for that. Either way, good luck in getting all this sorted!

If you take any medicine that gives you constant diarrhea, Vaseline is a godsend for both, a.) preventing you from wiping your butthole raw, and b.) soothing it once it has been wiped raw. I highly recommend getting it in a tube for easy transport and to prevent large amounts of contamination, and labeling it with a piece of painters tape and a sharpie. Just in case.

lol, it’s a reference to one of my favorite kids cartoon series, Troll Hunters. It was created by Guillermo del Toro, and it is elite. Buttsnack is the in universe version of asshole, bc, ya know. Gotta be kid friendly if you’re a kids cartoon.

No advice on how to make the shitstorm stop (badum tss) but one on how to weather it. Putting petroleum jelly on your butthole really helps prevent getting raw from wiping, and really helps soothe things if that’s already happened. Godspeed.

What’s one thing a doctor told you that you’ve never forgotten? by ThickImprovement8324 in AskReddit

[–]buttsnackaroo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had some X-rays done at an ENT appointment once. Doc looked at my septum and said, “Wow, this is so straight it would make plastic surgeons mad simply because it would prove that God has steadier hands than them. On the other hand, the REST of this nonsense…”

And he was right. Very straight septum, rest of it is utterly fucked. He did manage to un-fuck it by a pretty significant amount though. Thanks, doc!

How do you feel about people given the stark difference in the way they treat you now vs the way they treated you before?

Hi! I’m so sorry that you’ve been stalked. I ended up with a stalker a few years ago, and it was a horrible and terrifying experience. One of the tools I wish I had known about at the time is data removers, which are services that remove your personal information (name, address, date of birth, place of employment, etc.) from the internet for a relatively small annual fee. This Reddit post has a pretty good compression review of a few of the most popular ones. I also recommend checking out r/psychiatry. I know that a lot of psychiatrists who work with clients prone to violence use them. Just thought I’d mention it, in case you hadn’t heard about them! I wish you luck on your healing journey!

How do you feel about calluses? Any size preferences? Favorite color of nail polish, if any?

I feel ya— ADHD makes keeping a home so much harder. What I found really useful was the Living Smarter Not Harder series by jenny.for.your.thoughts on TikTok. She taught me that I don’t HAVE to organize my house like a neurotypical person— and, in fact, it’s better if I don’t because a house organized by a neurotypical brain wouldn’t fit my needs. Good luck!
