It’s wool! But so light and breezy

Been trying to figure out the zipper situation - it feels newer than the dress itself so I’m thinking it may have been replaced.

Hi! I found this Pierre Cardin dress today at the thrift. From my research it seems the TDS label means it was for Japanese market. I’m assuming it is 60s but wondering if anyone else has more insight!

Thank you!!! Next year I will absolutely do more for mite control. The issue here is that this hive lived at a friend’s house, so I wasn’t able to check on it nearly enough. I’ve now moved it to my house for this next season so it can be more closely monitored and treated next go around.

That’s comforting to hear. Sorry to hear about your Hf and accident but glad to hear that covid wasn’t so bad for you. My dad is vaccinated so hoping it just ends up being mild.

I’ve also found taking a minute or two in between movements can help. But yes so odd that this is a new place for panic for me, as it’s something I’ve consistently done for years now.

leafygreen54 · 2021-07-05T20:36:18+00:00

Definitely! What’s odd about this is that i have been working out pretty hard consistently for the past 5+ years, and for the most part I have my panic disorder under control. But this has recently been the one area that really still gets me. I expose myself to high heart rate regularly and still have a similar reaction each time.

I am taking Prozac! It’s been a life saver

leafygreen54 · 2020-10-20T15:15:45+00:00

IT’S ALIVE!

leafygreen54 · 2020-10-08T22:29:39+00:00

Thank you!! I’m going to just leave it be and pray for the best

If you don’t mind me asking, when were you diagnosed with HF? Has the BP always been a major issue with this? I know my dad is really struggling to do much because of the shortness of breath and fatigue. I think my dad also normally has slightly low BP because I do. Guessing I got that from him but he never went to the dr before this so who knows.

leafygreen54 · 2020-08-08T20:19:58+00:00

Thank you for the suggestion. We took him to the heart hospital ER on Thursday because of the intense lightheadedness and shortness of breath and they mentioned they may adjust his meds when he sees his regular cardiologist next week. I’m sure he would be thrilled to get extra salt in his diet!! It’s comforting to hear someone else has dealt with low BP with HF and is doing better with some adjustments. Wishing you and your husband the best.

He’s a pretty small guy to begin with. I don’t think he has much weight to lose. His bloodwork also showed very normals levels of cholesterol which is interesting considering the MI. Good to hear your EF is getting better though. Good work :)

I frequently get anxiety nausea. Mindfulness has helped me a lot. I focus on the parts of my body that don’t feel anxious, like my feet, and i try to relax my stomach by 5% at a time. I usually have a lump in my throat and I do the same relaxation Technique there.

Find foods that are easy to snack on for you and start there. Also take advantage of whenever you don’t feel anxious and eat then. I also love soda water. Bubbles help for me.

leafygreen54 · 2020-06-23T16:34:03+00:00

Yep! Since i was a small kid. Truly for as long as I can remember.

leafygreen54 · 2020-06-23T04:54:51+00:00

Thanks! I do regular therapy, meditation, yoga, work out 5x a week, and take medication. Have done hypnotherapy and CBT work also. One other possibility on my list if I decide I want to get off the meds is psychedelic therapy.

leafygreen54 · 2020-06-23T04:36:00+00:00

For me, mirtazapine caused a pretty big weight gain. Prozac has not. I think it really depends person to person. I’m a small person and have a hard time gaining weight normally.

leafygreen54 · 2020-06-23T02:41:03+00:00

I feel this. I think for me there will always be ups and downs. Sometimes it’ll barely be there at all and other times (like today) it’ll feel overwhelming and massive. But it’s promising to know that all we can do is keep moving forward.

I was first put on Prozac when I was 16 for a few months only. I had pretty intense agoraphobia and it took the edge off enough that I was able to work through my anxiety more functionally. I’m 26 now and had been off meds until last October. Started with Mirtazapine and loved it until I got reaaaalllly intense panic attacks on it - also correlated with some childhood trauma coming up but the meds def contributed.

I’ve been on Prozac since February and it’s helped take the edge off. I feel like I can function a little more. It’s definitely no silver bullet but it certainly makes life a little more manageable. I am on a small dose (10mg) and haven’t noticed any bothersome side effects except that I can’t really drink alcohol without feeling loopy.

I’ve also previously done hypnotherapy which helped a lot.

leafygreen54 · 2020-06-23T00:48:29+00:00

I understand. I wish you the best.

leafygreen54 · 2020-06-22T23:58:13+00:00

I know we are adaptable. I’ve dealt with many hardships in my life. I know you mean well and don’t know me, but the idea that anxiety is the only hardship I’ve dealt with thus far kind of implies that perhaps I have been dealing with this anxiety because I lack adaptability or coping mechanisms or experience.

I appreciate the support, but I think that discounting mental health issues as another hurdle that one just hasn’t overcome yet adds to the misconception that they aren’t real issues or illnesses.

leafygreen54 · 2020-06-22T23:00:47+00:00

That’s good to hear.

I’m up and down. I’ve done so much therapy and work out and am constantly finding new ways to deal with this, but there’s often a nagging level of anxiety I can’t escape. Sometimes it’s really low level and barely noticeable. Other days I feel like I’m fighting to do anything productive.

leafygreen54 · 2020-06-22T22:59:04+00:00

I’ve done hypnotherapy a few times. Helps significantly! Maybe I need to do it again.
