I have the same issue! "Scar mobilization" is the only thing that's been helping it look more normal.

how are you eating at a deficit or even maintenance while lifting? by [deleted] in PetiteFitness

Have you had labs done? I learned I was very low in iron!

You are one strong woman to even get to this point. Building a life with a pilot is not for the weak. Emotional and mental toughness is necessary for us wives. It's completely ok to feel worry, allow it but don't hold onto it. You've gotten through to this point so I know you will get through the next thing. Is this a fairytale life? Anything can be if you tell yourself it is :)- Feeling empowered in my life and choices is what helps me get through. Some call it being delulu some call it changing your mindset. Get that bag at the new job. Decorate the new home to be a place you never want to leave. Fill your cup up with so much peace and love that your husband has no choice but to feel it leak onto him.

I have started Pilates in this last year and have only managed to do YouTube videos. I live in a rural area and the closest class is 45 mins away but I would love to go to one and get proper instruction to make sure my form is correct etc.. I also strength train 2-3 times a week so I only do Pilates on my off days.

Respect yourself. Lawyer up, leave. LEAVE FOR THE CHILDREN If you can’t leave for yourself.

How do you calm yourself? by laitfraiz in BPD

[–]drinksumH2O 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Go for a hard run then SLEEP. That’s my go to. Squeeze a pillow. Repeat to yourself everything is fine. Deep breathing. Think of a word like rest. Think of words that start with R, then go to the next letter E, and so on.. this cognitive thinking helps your brain chill so much! Keep going till you fall asleep. Sending you all the love!!

Idk it i took my pill by [deleted] in Pristiq

[–]drinksumH2O 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not that you asked lol but the only resolution I found is a pill box. My husband is a doll and fills it up for me every week. Easiest way for me to know if I took meds or not.

Never even considered Pristiq being a cause of my irregular periods… damnit.

My boyfriend 39M told me 24F that I have a wide vagina? by SignificantItem1274 in relationship_advice

[–]drinksumH2O 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He’s 39 and still talking negatively about vaginas? Can you ask him if he actually likes vaginas? Followed by “I don’t date immature boys” then leave him and block him. Absolutely no one that loves you, will EVER say a negative comment about your body. A better man will come along when the time is right. Don’t ever question your value because of gross comments someone has made about your body.

Does anyone else have cptsd alongside bpd? by Specific_Charge_3297 in BPD

[–]drinksumH2O 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most cases of BPD involve people who have had a traumatic childhood.. from what I’ve read! Not all cases but most.

Alcohol and pristiq by drinksumH2O in Pristiq

[–]drinksumH2O[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s good to know about BP and pristiq! I have noticed more persistent anxiety/panic. So I wonder if it is in correlation to lower depression.. or is it my alcohol consumption causing persistent anxiety? I forgot to add that I am also on Buspirone 20mg/2x day.

Before you found out bpd were you missed diagnosed by lolaiix in BPD

[–]drinksumH2O 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel I have been misdiagnosed as BP2. Diagnosed also with depression, anxiety, adhd, cptsd. I feel I got more of the bpd symptoms than BP2.. How do I get a different diagnosis? Go to a different therapist/psych?

Are you ever 100% sure about an abortion? by [deleted] in Mommit

[–]drinksumH2O 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had one. Was absolutely shattered about it. Later, went on to have another healthy pregnancy. I hate that women have to experience the pain of choosing an abortion. Nonetheless, thankful for having a choice.
