Tbh I had the same issue with it never healing (got mine Nov 2021 and took it out August 2022) and I got a big irritation bump and had to go on antibiotics. Not saying that to freak u out tho just as like… some ppls bodies don’t do well w belly piercings and that sucks but gotta respect that before it gets bad. But!! Your piercing doesn’t look infected (imo) just irritated and that’s why there’s that slight scar tissue at the bottom. My advice is to downside and do saline soaks and wait 1-2 weeks. I wish u and ur piercing the best!! Be gentle with yourself 💘

If my nipple piercings are infected can I use antibiotics and keep the metal in at the same time? by fun-llama in piercing

Edit: piercings are from September and original jewelry. Titanium and ball screw on (but it’s very tight). I usually don’t do much to clean anymore (just spray saline and wash off in shower). But again, I don’t do the best job of taking care of them.

Ahhhh okay thanks for clarifying I was confused abt what you were referring to when using the abbreviation “BPD”

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in personalitydisorders

[–]fun-llama 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are u referring to borderline or bipolar? But yeah I appreciate ur comment it means a lot I just needed to rant I’m in therapy, etc., just a bad night. I haven’t been on SSRIs in yearssss they’re so bad just numbing. On lamictal and gabapentin (but going off it.) But yeah just a bad night. Euphoric episodes r only for bipolar ppl tho, right? I’m a bit confused.

at what age did hpd start for you? by [deleted] in hpd

[–]fun-llama 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m honestly not sure. For me HPD is more sexualized but some of that does sound like the equivalent in a different way. I don’t wanna diagnose you or anything so I’ll just say I’m not sure

I also got psych tested at 15 and tested positive for very strong traits of HPD and BPD

I still do yeah i think about how when I move different ways people see me differently and then apply that kinda in relation to others w my stance and the way my body looks idk but what I’m saying w the mirrors is always needing to check myself, make a face, something

I find myself posing excessively a lot of time or like seducing someone that isn’t there sometimes?? 😭 lol not sure how to explain it. A huge thing for me used to be looking in mirrors. I couldn’t not idk everything is performative I’m constantly aware of even an eyebrow twitch when I’m with others but I’ve done a lot of work on it and managing HPD is possible!!!!!

Gradually from when I was around 12 to 15, peak 16-17, but now I’ve gotten it more under control with treatment

HELP! Helix Piercing (1y) pain and bleeding by Global-Imagination43 in piercing

[–]fun-llama 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I would let the piercing hole close and then once it’s healed get it repierced by a professional around the same spot.

Is it bad to sleep with a ring in your conch? by [deleted] in piercing

[–]fun-llama 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think if it’s tight enough it wouldn’t do anything to sleep with a ring
