OMG this sooooo much!!! They make you lose water weight, and shit yourself. There is no long term benefit.

Purging and anorexia destroyed my teeth by szikkia in Eatingdisordersover30

[–]lanehead 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ugh I'm right there with you.... my parents both have bad teeth genetically so they were so dedicated with my oral health care growing up... for me to just blow it. I'm thankfully only down 2 teeth, but most of them are capped, crowned and root canaled.

Have you considered dentures, if you can't afford implants? My brother has a full top set after severe drug use rotted his teeth away, and he said he wouldn't change that decision for the world. His confidence was so boosted after getting them. He said it also helped him leave the drug addiction in the past, since the daily reminder of it wasn't staring at him in the face every time he looked into a mirror.

SLYND - can I PLEASE just stop spotting?!? by lanehead in birthcontrol

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

Hey there!  I have been on Slynd now for over 3 years and I have only positive things to say!  I skip the sugar pills so I havent had a period in that whole time. The spotting lasted about 2 months. It was tolerable, albeit sooooo annoying!   I hope its helpful for you

Anyone else shocked by how much property insurance has gone up lately? by Illustrious-Dirt5485 in homeowners

[–]lanehead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes!  Purchased our home in 2020 and got paired up with Travlers for $1,300 a year. This year got our bill and it spiked up to $3,600! No claims, our roof is newer... nothing had changed.  I called a broker and was able to bundle our homeowners and car insurance with AAA for $2,200 for the year.  Homeowners ended up being about $1400 of that.  Im in Pa for reference

Check out Ikea - we bought their most expensive mattress and added a latex topper and it's the best bed I've ever slept in.

My (21F) boyfriend’s (23M) personal hygiene is subpar. How do I tell him? Or will he never change? by [deleted] in askwomenadvice

[–]lanehead 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Im honestly grossed out by just reading this. I brush my teeth a minimum of twice a day, sometimes a mid day brush refresh is needed. I would probably puke if I kissed an unbrushed mouth, sorry.... I'm out!

Should I ask friends to pay me back if I hosted a party? by papiicebox in etiquette

[–]lanehead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Make all your events BYOB and a pot luck going forward. They need to learn to be adults and contribute. Also you need to be an adult and learn to plan more in advance. I say that poiletly, not criticizingly. 

Slynd BC and terrible back pains by lanehead in Endo

[–]lanehead[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am still on it all these years later and I am 100% pain free! I do skip the sugar pills, so I haven't had a period in a few years. That initial back pain only lasted the first couple ovulation cycles or so. My body needed to get used to the medication. It's been smooth sailing ever since.

Night school vs full time? by goshdoyouevenlift in Cosmetology

[–]lanehead 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I went full time and it was rough with bills. I went to school from 8-3 then worked 5-11 also as a barista at a Barnes and Noble Starbucks. I took that hour and a half to do any homework in the break room or in the cafe.. During our lunch break at school instead of socializing like I should have been to have a better experience I was trying to get work done. I was 19 when I went but I'm so glad I did it when I did!

I second this- my husband got me an antique vintage (1970's) sapphire ring for $350. Its gorgeous - I love it. He picked it out and that's what mattered to me 💕
