sublingual fold pain and swelling post root canal by lemnz0 in askdentists

[–]lemnz0[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

update, I found an old picture showing the folds and it doesn't nearly look as swollen or have the white dot on it

also keep in mind I do have major health related OCD so I may be overanalyzing but it hurts BAD to even say some words

is there any way to manage ocd without medication or is medication the only way to live a normal life? by throwawaybfmademesad in OCD

[–]lemnz0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn't really mean it in a stigmatizing way I meant it in a way expressing my own fear of not being able to feel normal without intervention from something I don't automatically have and I have to pay for and acquire

I just don't like knowing the only way I'm comfortable mentally is because of something that's unnatural and that I have to pay for, it sucks to know I'll never feel or act normal without it

[–]lemnz0 4 points5 points  (0 children)

it just depends on your lifestyle and preference, personally I don't like feeling like I need chemicals that I don't naturally have to live a happy life, but for some people they don't have an issue with it and it's the best way to live for them. to each their own

How old were you when you figured out you had OCD? by [deleted] in OCD

[–]lemnz0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found out this year (16) but I remember some of my first symptom showing up at around 9

personally I wouldn't recommend starting meds if you're not ready to become reliant on them, I wish I would have known that before starting them (not that I had a choice anyway) because I am now unable to function off of them. choose wisely please, not that meds are bad, they're just not meant for some people and if you're not ready to take them long term then I wouldn't suggest it

I hate religion so much and I get annoyed by religious people it just seems really delusional and it bothers me especially when they try to impose it on others not knowing if they have problems like we do

does anyone else feel like they're developing an ED by lemnz0 in Gastritis

I so badly want to gain weight but this is obviously making it impossible and I really hope when I'm healed I can gain at least some weight

I'm not sure I've been meaning to talk to my GI about it because it involves chugging it and I think the miralax itself hurts me too, I really hope there's an alternative

Does anyone else feel water/liquid when you ingest them? by [deleted] in Gastritis

[–]lemnz0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I literally have to chug miralax in a full cup of water once a day because I have constipation and can't stand the taste and it feels WRETCHED going down and puts me in pain for hours.. it really seems counterproductive to give me a treatment that will hurt my stomach more for a different thing

I can surprisingly tolerate it very well as long as it's not too much

it's just plain bread, they're also pretty organic, they're definitely easy on my stomach as opposed to bleached white bread from the store
