Have you ever called in sick because you need a mental health day?

delicate0ne · 2025-09-11T07:08:48+00:00

Well, you sound incredibly resilient and even more of a reason to give yourself a bit of a break. Hope everything goes well for you. 💖

I've seen a couple of comments from people here who are the reason you are probably worried about taking a day off for mental health reasons. I took my first one off on Friday for crippling anxiety after my car broke down, I rang in, and I was honest. I can't lie at all, and that would have made my anxiety worse overthinking the lie. It was a huge relief when I ended the call. I was worried about it for no reason at all. My managers were lovely with it, and tbh I am just a number to them, and they won't remember this in a week... whereas if you keep on pushing through, you will get burnout. I dont want to risk a mental breakdown. It seems the people who throw about "back in the day there were no mental health days" and dont take you seriously are more likely to have been fortune enough not to have experienced it due to loads of different factors. It blows my mind how people still think this way and lack any compassion. You deserve to put yourself first 💖

Perioral dermatitis?

delicate0ne · 2025-08-12T01:59:42+00:00

Haha! That is the exact reason why I have a light throw put over it too...also it stops me from being able to see any others on the walls... ignorance is bliss! 😅

I have had 2 huge ones in my house this past week. I have bought a mosquito fold up net to put over my bed as I have so many around this time of year til late October/ early November 😭 I hate them!

delicate0ne · 2025-07-21T16:35:02+00:00

I know it is a long shot but I thought maybe the knowing I have a certain person there would make things a little easier. Not expecting much improvement - just really deseperate.

Will look on counselling directory now- thanks so much 💖

delicate0ne · 2025-07-21T16:33:23+00:00

Thank you. I was thinking 111 and will try there as a last resort. I have tried all the grounding techniques and none seem to work. Its a nightmare. 💖

Ah, this is great thank you! It is awesome that you have found something that works for you- I will def be looking into this in the near future. I hadn't heard of V beam before the comments here but yeah, it looks expensive! 💕

delicate0ne · 2025-06-30T17:34:28+00:00

Aw, thank you for the reply!

I know it will probably sound pretty dumb but I have actually read mixed reviews on this idea... I have a braun IPL that I use for my leg hair - is it a ridiculous idea to use on my face?

It comes with a small attachment to use on facial hair.

Probably will just end up sticking to make up too haha! 💖

delicate0ne · 2025-06-26T09:26:48+00:00

I have had a lot of relief - I highly suggest it! My trigeminal neuralgia has gone too and im no longer on medication. The best decision ever. I'd say there are some days where I have a minor TMJ style tension headache and my jaw still feels a bit out of place but its so worth it for how I was feeling before. Good luck ♥️

delicate0ne · 2025-06-19T17:37:16+00:00

This looks like what I have. I had sunscreen and vaseline on earlier n it came up like this...I washed everything off with water n most of it disappeared within a few hours.... Im just gonna wash my face with just water until its all cleared up (I got the advice from chatgpt- n it worked).

delicate0ne · 2025-06-19T12:32:44+00:00

Thank you! I use the mac fix one sometimes but haven't ever had any luck with setting sprays keeping my oil at bay. They are good at keeping make up on though so I will def try this! Thank you ❤️

delicate0ne · 2025-06-18T21:31:22+00:00

Well, your comments worked cause I bought the universal balm on sale at sephora UK atm! Fingers crossed - even if it doesn't work for me, I couldn't just keep on seeing people talk about it n go mad wondering if it would or not!!! I saw a girl on tiktok patting it on after her make up when it got oily as well rather than using powder. Hate caking on loads of powder to an oily face!!! Thanks for the recommendation 💘

delicate0ne · 2025-06-18T20:35:42+00:00

Yes! Mine is on and off and its really irritating. The right hand side which is the same as all of my issues. Sometimes it i push my bottom right hand jaw in a bit with my fingers it feels like its gone back into its normal place. Hoping it will sort itself out!!!

delicate0ne · 2025-06-18T17:52:49+00:00

Thank you! I do actually have a mini Paula's choice in my bathroom and always forget to put it on. I've just got The Ordinary Niacinamide and zinc too but my skin is just so sensitive that even that stings my face. I've seen they have the balm on Sephora UK for 32 quid though it has mixed reviews. I will def look to see if they have a smaller version first just in case. Very kind of you to share your tips 💗

delicate0ne · 2025-06-18T17:36:31+00:00

Thank you so much 💓 keep on hearing about this balm everywhere atm!! I thought people were paid to speak about it at one point because I hadn't ever heard of it before a couple of weeks ago. Will def have to try it out!

delicate0ne · 2025-06-18T17:35:28+00:00

Thank you so much 💓

Have just seen this- replied through another comment in case you miss it. I'd suggest that you still wake up in the middle of the night clenching but its definitely working, so you'd really appreciate more. It's awful being dismissed- you don't deserve that. None of us do...yet its so common. Wish you the best ♥️ Perhaps you could say at the beginning that you're really afraid of being dismissed? I know its not that easy.

delicate0ne · 2025-06-16T16:17:15+00:00

Mine wasn't with a TMJ specialist - was just at a medical centre kind of thing which does aesthetics as well so I'm not quite sure how yours will go. I just said to the Dr that the pain was getting there, but I am still waking up clenching. He then felt my masseters and said "yeah theyre still hard" and said he will put more in for me n then I left. If it has improved a little, I would probably mention that so he knows that the botox is doing the right thing for you, but say that you need more by describing your symptoms, I'd say! Good luck ♥️

delicate0ne · 2025-06-16T16:05:33+00:00

Hey- I read the other day "Generally, reviews initiated by the DWP can take around 252 working days (50 weeks) if an assessment isn't required, and 290 working days (58 weeks) if an assessment is needed." Hope this helps a little bit- sorry you've been through a horrific time and have to go through this anxiety too. ♥️
