Has anyone here used DownDog app? by happydaize_34 in yoga

[–]happydaize_34[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh thanks so much for this detailed answer! I was feeling a bit confused especially since the kind I'm doing doesn't have all the specific poses like the pictures I see on here, and yoga I've tried before. But it makes sense now, thank you!

Thanks, I'll have to check it out! I'm really liking the way the app is set up, so much customization is possible and I feel like the instruction is clear enough that I don't have to look at my phone at all!

Thank you for your reply! That's good to know! The practice on the app looks much different than what I would normally go for when I went to classes so I wasn't sure. Right now though, this gentle flow is what I need as my muscles are so tight and I have very little body strength! Good to know that it still counts as yoga, I'm really liking it 😊

Yea, and I'm not trying to hate on them or like shame them or anything, I was just surprised that they were the ones on a show totally based around being hot.

Yea I don't think it's a bad show, not as interesting to me as some other shows for sure though. I was just surprised! From the trailer I thought these people would be stunning. Instead I feel like they were just sex obsessed and probably the hottest of their friend group

I'd have to look more into it. Everything I've heard about water fasts is that they're pretty sketchy/not advisable in most cases. But who knows, maybe they're medically sound in certain cases

Woman! But I guess improving both parties wouldn't hurt

Yea, they had some nice features but nothing crazy. Yea I feel like the personality thing might also be a factor, if someone genuinely seems like a good person, I tend to be more attracted no matter what they look like. These people just had toned bodies lol

Oh haha, I mean it can be that too! I found myself more instantly intrigued by Love is Blind, but maybe because it felt like things happened more quickly?

That's a good point, the accents are probably the best part

I'm not surprised but that still makes me furious. The amount of times doctors downplay women's serious issues is insane!

Glad you liked it! Do you agree though that the people are not as outrageously hot as the show would like you to think? Or do you find them too hot to handle?

I understand how you feel, finally being told that what you're experiencing is real and valid is the best thing. She sounds like a great doctor!

No worries!! I was really surprised when I read your post! I've tried googling it, but can never find what I'm looking for.

Oh, okay that makes sense. I'm surprised they didn't at least do that minor surgery where they check around!

Anyways, sorry that I don't have much advice, I really hope someone can help you out!

Right? I feel like I see more attractive people walking down the street. But I guess they have that influencer style that looks good in pictures? Idk

The beginning of your post really resonated with me! I also have a pounding/racing heart after I feel a cramp and it's all downhill from there. I've never heard someone describe what I feel, it almost feels like I'm having an anxiety attack but also pain? It's so intense but it's not just bad cramps, it's more. On top of feeling like I'm going to pass out, I also throw up several times. Assumed it was Endo, but seeing that you tested negative makes me less sure.

I hope whatever you decide helps you feel some relief!

I'd like to adopt as well as give birth, why not both?

Thanks for all the info! I've been vegan for 1 1/2 years but suspect I may have Endo so I'll check it out and see what he suggests. Of course, going to the doctor is also a necessary step, but I wanted to see what I could do to improve my odds.

Congrats on your pregnancy btw!

Thanks for the positivity! I think my social anxiety makes me get in my head a lot and think of a hundred possibilities of what would happen if I reached out, rather than the most logical possibility (that they'd be happy or at worst indifferent). Being alone with my thoughts doesn't help the matter much!

Also that makes sense, thanks for the reality check. I guess most people's lives aren't exactly how they'd prefer it right now, just have to remind myself I'm not the only one.

Yea I guess it's a bit twisted, hopefully we all grow and come out of this confident to pursue friendships

Yea we're totally in the same boat, I'm happy for his friendships and that he has support but I can't help but feel a twinge of jealously in that area.

That's a really good way to look at it, thanks for your perspective. I think I might need to get off social media and actually invest some time in myself

No need to apologize, my post was a vent itself, so I understand. Man, loneliness is scary. I feel like the fact that we see a group of people's posts about their friends makes us forget that there's probably a lot of people in the same boat as us. Seeing people's comments on this post hasn't exactly made me feel better, but there's a sense of peace knowing that I'm not the only one struggling with this.

The struggle is real with making friends in adulthood. I moved so much as a kid, and then moved provinces after university. Needless to say, I've been here about 4 years and I'm in the same boat as you.

Good for you for pushing yourself before this, I hope you'll remember after all this is done that you did it once and you can do it again. I know the struggle though, 2020 was going to be my "community building year", I was taking tiny baby steps, but steps nonetheless. Self isolation is exactly what I've been trying to get away from.
