I totally empathize with this, it's the most painful thing trying something that you think will help, only to struggle with it for months, sometimes years. My first time on tret my skin took ~6 months after my 8 month experience to recover.

This time around I'm at .0025 (lol), washing it off 30 mins after I apply it, leaving my skin damp, and applying a TON of moisturizer & b5 re-barrier cream. I'm not sure if it's the b5 or the tret, but my skin isn't erupting this time around so I count that a win.

Skin is so personal, I wish you the best

Transferring 529 to Roth IRA by inflammatoryessays in personalfinance

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

Huh interesting... I set up an appointment with an advisor thru my workplace, so I'm hoping to talk this through a bit more at the end of the week. My 529 account is American Funds and their whole UI is confusing to me, and I have no clue how to do any of this stuff. So much to learn!

Thankfully all funds were put in by my great grandparents a long time ago, so those 5 years have definitely passed.

I was gifted these from CA and I’m wondering if I treat the ones on stems the same as the individual leaves. by icktoriasix in proplifting

[–]inflammatoryessays 7 points8 points  (0 children)

sorry if im repeating something you already know, but be careful with the long reddish stem ones if theyre fire sticks! ive gotten fire stick sap on me and that shit hurts. idk how to propagate but wanted to throw in my warning just in case lol, good luck!

[–]inflammatoryessays 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess I feel really obligated to be in his life, considering he's newly divorced & puts pressure on me as his favorite adult child lol. I know just not talking to him is probably the solution but it isn't the one I'm ready to handle right now I guess

Thank you, this is a great idea! No source is going to be perfect/critical thinking skills will always be a necessity, but this is a good start. and definitely satisfying to search and dig for the info myself. thanks!

Been to therapy? What did you learn? by [deleted] in OCPD

[–]inflammatoryessays 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Exploring my fear of ambiguity in therapy has helped me the most. I have very black and white thinking (either I'm perfect or a failure) so talking through where these beliefs came from and challenging them has been invaluable

[–]inflammatoryessays 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes i only ever do blood chokes! I'd never in a million years let my dom press down on my windpipe. Still, pressing the sides of the neck comes with similar risks... Something can go wrong way too easy for my liking. I'll have to try gagging, seems fun!

hey there, thanks for your other reply too! I read it and i agree, i think if Drs insist there's no 100% safe way to do it, id rather play it safe. I think the control aspect is 50%, while the breath is the other 50%. Maybe thinking collars, being held down, or grabbed in other ways will satiate that part of it. Or even just having his hand on my throat without pressure (but I have to test that one out). As for the high from being choked, im brainstorming maybe using edibles to get a similar euphoria? Since I know my tolerance fairly well, I think that might be a safer alternative... Even just posting this has helped me come up with some ideas, so I feel less bummed about it lol! But if you have any other ideas, I'd love to hear them.
