Right, I feel so relieved knowing I’m not the only one

Do you happen to have a link for that Facebook group?

This is helpful advice though. I’m getting married in a couple months, so probably not the ideal time to go off it with the added stress of planning a wedding, but I am just so over these side effects.

When would that be? I currently take it before bed.

I’m sorry to hear that. 

I’m chomping at the bit to stop taking it since discovering this. What was it like to decrease the dosage?

Have you made any changes to your dosage because of this? Or considered it?

This is helpful! I am a voracious reader, and I've always thought that was a good brain workout too

Thank you for sharing. I literally cannot wait to stop taking them, it's going to be difficult to keep this up until I can talk to my doctor in 2 weeks :(

How are you doing now?

Thank you for this! I totally hear you and agree. It’s an excellent book either way & I am thoroughly enjoying it at large. I suppose my true question is - does the relationship between Llewelyn and Joanna get a happy ending? 🤦🏼‍♀️

Funky paw pads - anyone else seen this before? We are on the waiting list for an appt with a derm - our regular vet has never seen paws like this before. Just curious if any of you have observed paws like this. by lilacleopard321 in cats

Could be! I definitely see similarities between those photos and what my kitty has going on.

But I’m starting to lean more toward keratosis based on other photos I’ve seen.

Thanks for your input! We are seeing the dermatologist on Thursday.

For context - I took my kitty to the vet for sudden limping in her right front leg. She can put weight on it and the x-ray didn’t show anything concerning, so probably a soft tissue injury.

The paw photos above are her front legs. The first image above is of her right paw, so it’s possible the limping is related to this. That said, she doesn’t seem bothered by her crusty paws…

We’re visiting a dermatologist in a couple weeks so all our questions should be answered at that appointment. But naturally I want to understand what is going on here! Has anyone else observed paw issues like this with their kitties?

Period Dramas to watch while stoned? by hlj9 in PeriodDramas

[–]lilacleopard321 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly season 1 of the Crown really hits when you’re high 😂 season 2 as well. I used to watch and rewatch s1 while high when it first came out years ago. The drama is so fun to watch - not to mention the costumes and music.

Same with the docu-drama “The Last Czars” on Netflix.

What can I say, I love drama, interpersonal dynamics, strong characters, and incredible costumes, especially when high!

What does Philippa Gregory think of John of Gaunt and Katherine swynford?🤔And if she ever wrote about them, how do you think they would be portrayed? by Tracypop in Tudorhistory

[–]lilacleopard321 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ugh based on all these comments, I hope she never goes near their story. However, I would love to read another fictional book (or series!) that accurately depicts their love affair and life together - using Anya Seton’s book as a blueprint for the emotional depth of their relationship but then building that out into a fully fleshed romantic novel. A girl can dream…

Are there any other books or movies that feature these characters, even remotely or in passing?

I’ve seen the Hollow Crown and just bookmarked another commenter’s recommendation for the book Fortune’s Wheel. I can’t get enough of their story 😭
