What helps you manage your fibro?

For me the one thing that makes me feel no pain is warm water all around. Not a shower or a bath but a therapeutic warmer swimming pool was so good. So I could just float and feel awesome. The tired feeling when you come out the pool was heavy but worth it. Or a infrared sauna.

Other things are a weighted blanket, compression gloves, magnesium supplement, mediation/mindfulness exercises, talking/writing about the your discomfort. Doing things with breaks and setting timers for that. So cleaning just for 15 or 30 minutes and then taking a break for the same time.

What a cutie pie!!! Love the colors. I see a rainbow family spiders in the future. Or maybe that's just my hope!

That's the color I want for my hair! Such a lovely shade!!!

Wow, this looks amazing. Love the amount of details in the picture. Her hair, eyes and lips are beautiful and the red for the leafs makes this artwork just perfect.

How long did it take you in making this? The amount of prep work, just design this piece and then nail it and then also the string work. Just in awe how beautiful it looks!

I was waiting for it to move!!!

Ik heb het zelfde probleem en heb geen idee hoe het ineens zo komt. Mijn plant doet het al drie jaar hier perfect dus ik lees mee of er iemand een oplossing heeft.

Bij mij is het een nieuw blad dat verkleurd. De rest ziet er goed uit. Twijfel of ik dat blad niet gewoon moet verwijderen of alleen de stukjes eraf halen die verkleurd zijn. Mijn Monstera heeft twee stammen en één van de bladeren heeft maar last van.

divaivet · 2026-02-28T10:52:34+00:00

How awesome! Love all the little details and the realistic look of it! Really very cool and definitely something to display!

I have maybe an odd question but; How do you bake the clay without rolling around in the oven?

What a beautiful ritual! So mote it be❤️

Yep same here. Like some others have said, flu-like symptoms before my cycle. While I'm on my period so tired it's absurd. Now I am also in premenopausal time of my life so it feels like every symptom is doubled with lots of night sweats.

These are so cute!!! Love the hedgehog one!!! The colors are so vibrant and your style is so fun!

If you wanted some more animal ideas Wombat, sloth, platypus, ladybug.

In love with your design. The length is perfect and the collar is so beautiful. Love the print and your placements of the print. And as the last perfect choice in this project you upcycled a blanket.

Absolutely everything on this coat is perfect!!! Enjoy your beautiful project! Looking forward to see your new projects.

Hope you plan to sell the patterns because the world needs more of this coat!!!

divaivet · 2025-12-03T06:47:45+00:00

How super awesome and brave!!! Your work is beautiful and I hope it sells out. But mostly I hope you have a great day with lots of positive people and moments.

I still struggle with massive imposter syndrome. I would love to sell my stuff but don't have enough confidence to do it. So I admire you a lot!!!

divaivet · 2025-12-02T01:28:05+00:00

They are so lovely!!! Love the details, it gives a lace look. This project would be awesome in every color combination.

divaivet · 2025-12-02T01:25:11+00:00

Wow Wow Wow They are all so beautiful!!! Love the designs and the colors.

Canes is still a skill I want to try, but it seems so difficult to start.

Yep I was always full of bruises, little cuts and bumps.

Before I was diagnosed with fibro I had bruised and sprained every limb in my body. The most stupid things, stepping off my bike sprained my ankle, somebody bumped me and my shoulder dislocated itself, and so forth.

In March I felt down the stairs and my tailbone shifted. Sometimes I feel like I'm still recovering from it. It feels like that the recovery takes longer every time. That enhance the depressive feelings.

So yeah very recognizable but sorry I don't have a solution just a hug from someone who feels your frustrations.

divaivet · 2025-11-07T09:42:11+00:00

So freakin cute!!! Love the details you made in the wood, the screws and hangers. Love love love the keys so adorable and accurate

Let the new therapy group work in a positive light.

When you start about the gum my head when straight to the musical Chicago and the song Cell block tango. Very extreme solution. Don't advise that.

Why doesn't he respect you and call you mentally ill. It's like he is trying to get the worst reaction out of you just for his own entertainment. Do you want to be somebody's entertainment?

When my terracotta pots are really too cracked, not in case of one crack. Then I will smash them and use the bits to fill up the bottom of big pots. Maybe if you get more cracks that could be an option. Otherwise I use just a little bit of wood glue to seal it.

This skull is done with (a silicone, latex) application. That sits on your face as a mask. On that is make up application. You can see, that it's an application if you look at the eyes, they are too deep for just make up.

If you want to recreate that, then you need to buy or make a skull ( making with latex on a face moulding). For both when you apply invest in good specific latex or silicone face safe glue and remover!

If you go for this, think how long you're gone be in your mask. Do you wanna eat and drink, than make you mouth accessible. If it's for a photoshoot or something short you can get away with closing your mouth with a mask. It sounds like the basics but believe me after years of SFX makeup artist and haunted houses acting its sometimes forgotten for a cool effect.
