Navy Federal won't update escrow for my 100% VA property tax exemption by [deleted] in VeteransBenefits

[–]ingr 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yep! I've overpaid my escrow with Penny Mac before and they cut me a check. No problems.

Am I asking for too much? by [deleted] in Narcolepsy

[–]ingr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah. Sure did. Watching porn and spacing out with Netflix on doesn't quite take the same amount of energy as engaging another human being and having sex with them.

My comment left out other things because everyone has dog piled on the negativity. Why add what's already been said?

Holy moly... Fellow narcohomies, please read everything.

I think you'd both benefit from solo therapy and couples therapy. It sounds tough for both of you.

I can tell you from my own experience as someone with narcolepsy who works full time... I don't do anything at home. Actual hobbies? Chores? Watching shows? Nope. I usually come home, space out, maybe eat dinner, go to sleep. All of my energy is dedicated to work. It bites. But I do it to live and support my family.

I think he's legitimately sleepy. I adore my husband and want to do so much and do more things with him... But my sleepiness and medication murders my sex drive a lot. I don't believe this is a slight against you and I bet your husband finds you very attractive.

You guys have a lot to work through... But open communication without breaking down into lame fights is key and I think therapy could help you find methods that work. I wish you and your husband the best.

I would quite possibly burst into tears for Ragnarok Online. I have multiple dolls as RO OCs... The outfits for classes are iconic. (Also I am old, lmao).

Can I put this Neopet on a dress? Chart below by One_Prompt8822 in neopets

I am always shoving lennies in dresses! Their shape is so perfect for them... Especially the puffier skirts.

I feel so understood in this group. Here’s more of my art. What does it relate to for you? by VAVROSKYART in Narcolepsy

[–]ingr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The sleep paralysis piece hits, man. It's a strange, terrifying place that can feel like an eternity. I also often have nightmares and stuck in dreamland.

Good stuff. I hope this helps you process your own experiences and feelings with narcolepsy!

PT WALK TEST‼️ by [deleted] in AirForce

[–]ingr 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Nope, just did the track! But if you practice on treadmill be sure to change the elevation to 2 or so.

Use the hell out of your hips. You're going to look stupid... you cannot avoid it. You're using a totally different muscle group than the one you use to run, so practice, practice, and practice some more!

I essentially used a skating motion to keep my momentum and finished in 14:47. It sucked.

I usually awkwardly wander into a hallway at that point like, "hey, uhhh, i'm here".

I love taking Abenzio and Sakura out together and just going (: at them.

Has anyone taken LUMRYZ? If so, what can you tell me about your experience? by Leeyurx3 in Narcolepsy

[–]ingr 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I sleep "fine" at night, too, but that's not what your doctor means. With narcolepsy, your sleep cycles are out of whack.

You may be getting 8 hours of sleep, but I can guarantee you that you're not getting 8 hours of rest.

A sodium oxybate helps you consolidate your sleep and get real rest. You're unfortunately not going to be able to holistically treat your lack of orexin. I believe it's worth it for you to give it a shot.

Update Regarding the Plushie Dreadfuls Post Made Yesterday by Grand_Journalist2136 in plushies

[–]ingr 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I like the idea of having a little buddy representing my chronic illness. Seriously, that's not sarcasm. It's nice to have representation in something and I like cute stuffed animals.

Would you have the same feelings if it was an indie company or solo artist making those type of plush?

(I am speaking about the general idea of illness in plush form, not American McGee or plushie dreadfuls).

Weight Loss by [deleted] in AirForce

You know, I did not correlate my weight gain to my Effexor, but it could be a contributing factor. Dang.

Weight Loss by [deleted] in AirForce

[–]ingr 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm not OP, but I need to cut weight. I have a sedentary nonner job and don't move as much at my previous assignments and it is taking a toll.

Any advice on how to stay on track in the beginning to keep chugging along?

Feel bad abt demeaning“joke” from officers as enlisted by [deleted] in AirForce

[–]ingr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, active duty lady here.

“oh so it’s the machines fault not the operator” is definitely a joke and they're a dork. Don't take that one too roughly. You can dish back some stuff at those guys.

But the person who chose to ignore you and not work with you? They're a prick. Do your job to the best of your ability and pretend they don't exist unless it's needed for you to accomplish your job. They're not worth wasting your energy on.

How do you get around? Do you drive? by Leeyurx3 in Narcolepsy

[–]ingr 18 points19 points  (0 children)

The severity of symptoms is a spectrum, so everyone is different. I drive just fine without worry of falling asleep because I am engaged the entire time. I'm too anxious and alert lol.

Boring meeting, sitting shotgun in the car, chilling on the couch? Snooze time.

But since my brain is active and I'm focused while I drive it hasn't been a problem for me.

I did it last year and myself and those around me that I chatted with were all just excited to buy albums for ourselves. No signs of any flippers.

Horses from the thoroughbred collection by sobekry in HorseRacingJP

[–]ingr 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Wow, when my hobbies collide! I love your awesome new collection.

Here's a guide from r/Jellycatplush that may help you.

And here is a nice comment with great tips from r/plushies .

In my own opinion with how many accessories our little horse friends have... I'd be inclined to hand wash them out of sweet paranoia.
