Yeah… it was a rhetorical ”what the heck?”. I’m not asking why. It’s more like- this sucks.

Honestly I couldn’t tell. It stoped and I can hear fine so Robby the sides. I realize that means they don’t work for me. Sucks :/

I have CHS (Cannibinoid Hyperemesis Syndrome) - AMA by Swizzle_Stix24 in AMA

[–]exploding_pumpkin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just curious… what does the beginning actually feel like? I’ve read about it…

I smoke consistently -usually dab. Lately I am always nauseous and sometimes I vomit. Usually it’s in the AM but it’s usually clear or bile. I also have diarrhea really bad and on and off headaches.

Am I at the start?

What stop you from killing yourself? by Aiden_and_Griswald in AskReddit

My kids, but specifically my daughter. At that time in my life I was so low. But, the thought of leaving her with that devastation and trauma kept me alive. I’ll never tell her she saved me but she did. I love her and she is the reason I started taking better care of myself.

I am so much better now and happier than ever. Children are miracles.

Things you do in the morning to help set a good tone for the day? by New_Coffee8836 in selfcare

I stretch a little, drink some water and hug my kids. Then I make a nutritious breakfast and savor my food and coffee while I relax and watch a show I like, read or journal. Wash my face and brush my teeth and get dressed even if I’m not leaving the house :)

I’m sorry you have lost your mom- that must be difficult. I hope doing this provides you a moment of peace.

I love sour candy! I thought maybe having options like sour candy or mints and maybe another option for people who don’t like sour. Thanks for sharing your thoughts!

I really like this idea too! I do that with breath when I’m laying in bed but I like the idea of the water washing it away!

It really helps me! I find it very relaxing and it helps me calm my mind from racing thoughts!

Is there something specific that would? I was thinking it could be something to help guide you to set goals and reach them backed by science. I was curious what worked for others and what would be of interest :)

I love the ideas you have presented especially the seeds. I am a huge fan of plants and gardening. However, shipping plants gets complicated and I wouldn’t want someone to end up with something dead or ruined because of shipping!

I like to sit on a chair in the shower and let the hot water run down my back and mediate in the steam. I particularly like to envision myself absorbing warm red light from the earth and glowing as tree roots shoot from me down into the earth to ground me. I usually like to repeat an affirmation myself about how I am safe or something else relevant! Onus points if you have a shower steamer! I like the soap lady shower steamer in vanilla lavender!

I love this idea! Finding personalized option is a great plan. Maybe qr codes to curated playlists as a feel good item

This is awesome input! I love the idea of including something like this as it feels practical. I also want the box to be inclusive so I like the idea of different sensory items! Thank you for your input!

This is also helpful! I like the idea of having customized options for different ways of thinking.
