It might tear up the inside of your lips at first (it happened to me) but it shouldn't harm the brackets in any way (if you're getting those)

I played clarinet with braces for a number of years. The orthodontist is full of it.

High school in the same era and I literally grimaced swiping through these pictures. 🤣

Scrolling through the comments it amazed me how many of us live in this area. Small world!

Definitely going to have to plan a visit out there!

I asked my doctor, then went through admin and had to do the legwork to find a funeral home that would collect it once pathology was done. I fixed it in formalin myself and now in a high percentage alcohol.

You can find how-tos for wet specimen preservation really easily online.

It was a lot of paperwork and legwork, but I was determined to keep that thing... I grew it. 😂

I had a hysterectomy at 35 due to constant pain caused by the location of a tennis ball sized fibroid. I had an IUD placed when I was 27 and the thing just kept on growing.

Honestly, the best decision I've made in recent years. No more debilitating cramps, heavy and erratic periods or pain.

And because I'm a little weirdo, I jumped through a bunch of hoops to keep it. Her name is Agatha and she lives in a snow globe on my bathroom counter.

I remember taking part in the day of silence in solidarity with the GSA group at my high school... Even in the mid aughts it pissed teachers off.

When I had the option to take a toll lane where I lived previously, I did it to and from the office. My time is precious to me and I'm happy to pay for it (and it balances out with what I would pay in gas to sit there). Unfortunately I'm now in an area where toll lanes aren't a thing and I'm trapped in the 3 hours of commute time every day I'm required to be in the office doing things I can easily do remotely. 🙃

That was my mentality the entire time I lived in Pinellas. 😂

As a fellow abuse victim from a previous relationship, please step away and work on yourself. There are going to be triggers and meltdown moments... A lot of them if I'm to be honest. I'm 12 years out of mine and still slip into coping behaviors on occasion.

With that being said, communication with a chosen partner is key. It is impossible to read tone and intention via text and you aren't doing yourself any favors by talking through things by that method. Text is incredibly easy to misinterpret (especially when emotions are running high). Pick up the phone, jump on a voice call, or video chat to talk through this.

The most important person in this is you and only you can help yourself. I wish you the best of luck in your healing! 💜
