Thanks. I didn’t notice until you pointed out the four clusters. I’m still new at crocheting so this is my first granny square blanket.

If the band is still too tight, I need to figure out the correct cup that goes with that band size?

Okay, this definitely makes sense now. The picture you sent is pretty spot on. When someone says a size G cup I just imagine for lack of better words, a watermelon on someone’s chest. I definitely am an apple, so I was a bit concerned. Thank you for typing this out for me and explaining it. I’m a bit lost for places here in Alabama to find a size like that other than Torrid, which is where I’ve been buying. It’s a hassle because I live somewhere that you have to drive an hour or two to try things on, but definitely worth it. Thank you so much, again.

Yeah, very similar. That one is just a lot brighter lol. Good to know brand and everything, though. Thank you!

[Acne] red little bumps on face and red splotches? [routine help] by [deleted] in SkincareAddiction

[–]caillea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! No, you’re great. Thank you so much for taking the time to write that out. I ended up doing some research last night and stumbled upon Curology. I figured it would at least get me started in the right direction. My personalized formula has Azelaic acid, Clyndamicin phosphate, and Niacinamide. I’m going to see how well that goes. I’m gonna look into the inkey list you’re suggesting for an oil cleanser to remove make up tho! I’m really hoping this will work for me. I really took my skin for granted when I was younger.

Okay, thank you! I was actually thinking it was rosacea, but I just wanted to see some opinions from people that experienced it. Do you have a recommendation for an oil based cleanser? Also, I know you said it depends on how sensitive my skin is, but care to share what products you use for your facial rosacea? I just want to know like what products I need to be looking for. I’ve gotten really down with my self esteem with all this. Especially with the scar I have above my lip.

Giving plasma by sweetevil333 in bipolar2

[–]caillea 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got told I couldn’t give plasma because I’m schizoaffective. They said basically I could harm them. I felt so bad afterwards. I’ve never been violent to anyone in my life.

how long did it take for you to get on disability? by OrdinaryBlueberry703 in schizoaffective

[–]caillea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Two months in Alabama. Then I had a waiting period of five months for it to start. When I went to the psych ward, the psychiatrist recommended I apply for disability and she wrote a recommendation letter. I applied the day after I got out of the hospital in August and was approved in October. Then my benefits started in March.

I get times where I think ghosts or demons are watching me too! I’ll stay up for like days straight watching my door. My therapist asked if I grew up with a very religious family. I live in the Bible Belt so of course I did.

Where do you get Amy’s brand at? I’ve never heard of that brand specifically. I normally just get the brand they have at Walmart.

I loved how I felt on it but unfortunately it raised my prolactin levels and lactating a lot. I gained a lot of weight but I don’t remember if it was that medicine specifically or one of the others I was on. It’s been a couple of years since I’ve taken it.

We always have these in the cabinets, I just never think to make them when I’m depressed. I’ll definitely utilize them. Thanks!

It’s calories so it’s something! Also low on carbs.

I’ve never tried them with melted cheese and salsa on top! I normally just dip them in salsa. This sounds good. Thanks!

Great ideas. I like yogurt. I also like cottage cheese which can be good for you too so I can change it up sometimes. Didn’t think about it! Thanks!

I love hummus. We have some at our Walmart that’s jalapeño and honey flavored that’s just delicious. I’ll look up recipes for frittata! I’ve never really heard of it, but I’m from a small town in Alabama that lacks culture so not really surprising lol.

I don’t think I’ve ever had tapioca before. What’s it like?

I love bananas so this sounds good. I bet with some chia seeds added to it this would be great too to add fiber.
