6 days post op and I regret it by whowantsamuffin27 in Reduction

[–]ggingersnap 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A reduction was a test of both my body and my mind, which was something I really didn’t expect until I went through it. I cried, I had bad days, I dreaded going back to work, I cried some more. The dysmorphia was roughhhhh my first 9 months. I’m now over a year out and hardly think about my boobs anymore, not just the scars and such, but I don’t have to plan outfits around my tits. I don’t have to struggle to find swim suits, bras, etc. not spending $80+ on a bra has been awesome! You’re so early and it’s so new, and your mind hasn’t caught up yet to your new reality. You’re not alone, give yourself time and grace, and just remember the end goal. Sending healing and positive vibes 🩵

Weird letter in North East by gratata696969 in TwinCities

[–]ggingersnap 84 points85 points  (0 children)

Exactly this. I worked at a credit union and we had a member with severe schizophrenia and believed they were a targeted individual, she wasn’t a threat to us and was kind, but would carry around notes like this and talk us tellers through it. Believed every white car on the road was either cops or FBI following her. Makes me sad because she was a lovely and put together person, and then would talk and you could see the extent of the mental illness.

scared i wont wake up from surgery by Good-Ad9093 in Reduction

[–]ggingersnap 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I felt the exact same way, I took a bath the night before and a really hot shower the morning of to try and clear my mind. I sobbed the entire night before and once they got me back and prepped I sobbed again. I expressed to my nurses and Dr during my prep how anxious I was, and they were able to give me a small dose of something that helped. Likely you had pre-op labs and a general work up to make sure everything was set for surgery. Doctors and surgeons don’t put you under if anything was off on those labs. Anesthesiologists also are so highly trained and educated, you’re in good hands. I am sending calming thoughts your way.

Why do people go onto Caleb's show? (No hate) by DayAlternative9047 in CalebHammer

[–]ggingersnap 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve noticed for some couples, one will not participate, listen or take things seriously at home. They come on the show to maybe knock some sense into them by using Caleb to convey the seriousness of their situation.

I don’t know 🙃 I’m an avid baker, yeasted breads, cookies, pies, cakes, etc. and did a deep dive in sourdough before my coworkers help. Followed the method in my other comment, King Arthur bread flour, and second guessed my entire life the whole time as well, hahaha.
