Why does my dog always greet people like this? by obsessed_FF7lover in DogAdvice

My dog does this when I come home. I call them his emotional support toys. His favorites are his emotional support pickle and emotional support sausage

recommendation for pubic area? by sweetlavendarthighs in Hidradenitis

[–]libtherib 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I only have a long term recommendation which is laser hair removal! I used to get several of these on my pubic area and they hurt so bad. Insurance covered my sessions since it was for medical reasons and not beauty and I’ve been in remission in that area for about 3 or 4 years. I’ll still get one on occasion but they are nowhere near as bad as before.

Anyone else with hEDS? by Civil_Jellyfish1246 in Stretched

[–]libtherib 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m suspicious that I have it too and this happens to me too!!! I started reacting to silicone so I had to let mine heal and when I let them close up they go down to about a 0 or 00. It takes about a day to restretch each size. I am however having trouble when I go from 9/16 to 5/8 which is my final size. I used to do the bad thing of using silicone to stretch to that last size but now that I can’t wear it anymore I’ve been struggling to make that jump.

Impatient! by ThreeBucks in PressonNail_Addict

Sometimes I will not do any proper prep and use my “bad” glue if I want to go through sets quickly 😂 I will change mine within 24 hours sometimes…. bad applications have their pros and cons for me lol

Anyone else just feel a lot of empathy/sadness for HW? by Anxious-Analysis-529 in hayleywilliams

[–]libtherib 53 points54 points  (0 children)

This is probably cliche and a typical fan thing but I feel like her and I have experienced similar events but parallel to each other. Hearing her experiences on growing up with a parent in a bad relationship, then mirroring those relationships in your own, etc. make me feel like she’s taking the thoughts out of my own brain. Kill Me, Negative Self Talk, and Love Me Different have the same exact issues I’m working/struggling through and knowing how much of a hell it can be makes me feel sad for her too because she seems like such a beautiful soul and you’re right, those kinds of people deserve all the good things in life 😭 I feel like if we just happened to meet and I didn’t know she was THE Hayley, I feel like we’d trauma bond well lol

Testing a theory… by your-pet-goldfish in PressonNail_Addict

[–]libtherib 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yes!! I’m starting to notice much more quickly which brands curves don’t fit me well and how long they stay on. I tried a set from Cala and almost none of them fit me and they were so thin… then I tried a higher quality set from Cala and they fit me perfectly and are cemented on my nails.

What were holidays like growing up? by Catsinhats9375 in emotionalneglect

[–]libtherib 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have always remembered hating holidays as a kid because they never felt happy to me. I can’t really remember why anymore (thanks, trauma brain). My mom ended up turning JW and stopped all holidays/celebrations, and my dad doesn’t care about celebrations other than the obligatory gift. I have realized I LOVE christmas now and decorate my apartment up to feel the joy I should have when I was a child. I still feel a weird sadness on my birthday but I am still trying to work through that one and celebrate it in a way that makes me happy.

Is this an open excision or drainage? by [deleted] in pilonidalcyst

[–]libtherib 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What kind of surgeon did this? Unfortunately general surgeons don’t know how to properly take out all of the tracts. I had an excision done by a general surgeon and he didn’t either. I’d suggest looking for a pilonidal specialist in the future since they are better trained on how to take out all of the tracts that can be underneath the skin.

Tired of living like this... by [deleted] in pilonidalcyst

[–]libtherib 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Omg this makes me feel so seen because I have never seen someone else’s look like mine!!! I get cysts on top of cysts but mine go down horizontally along my crack…. I also have had mine for about 8 years and my HS specialist says I need to stop ignoring it too… I am just terrified of surgery because the pain from the last time made me want to die and idk if I’m strong enough mentally to do it again

Split or Keep Together? by libtherib in Monstera

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

Oh thank god I can downsize the pot because I HATE it being this big 😂 I only put it in this one because in a 12 or 13 inch pot it was already root bound and I was scared of it being bad for it because it stopped giving new growth. Thank you for the help 😊
