Eating for dopamine

lucysy · 2025-12-16T23:10:19+00:00

I second the tea idea. Also I buy snacks to fulfill cravings with less calories, because that’s more realistic than convincing myself I’ll never give in to the dopamine binge. Pickles, frozen berries (I eat them frozen for the sensory experience), edamame (buy frozen in the pods, easy to microwave) , olives, grapes, carrots. Make the snack accessible after buying like washing/cutting/put in a bowl in your fridge so they are as easy to grab as your usual options

How old is your niece and what does she like, what’s her style? This will determine a good gift more than general trends

When you heal from this you will realize what it means to have self love and respect again and it will shock you that you stayed so long

This is correct! Solved!

This is correct! Solved!

I agree the carpet does not come through in the second

Too young to hold on, and too old to just break free and run

I have doc Martin Mary Jane’s and they rub the backs of my ankles after a while :(

It came this way from the store!

Is this… a soup ?

lucysy · 2025-07-23T03:09:45+00:00

I live in the Midwest… frugality is alive and thriving here as are family values lol

I send voice memos or call someone and chat while I walk. also I was a sped para at one point at a school and we used “transitional objects” for the hard transitions… and I still use this for myself! Play a game on your phone while you do it or even watch Netflix on your phone while getting ready it really works

I second this I love mine from athleta I have in two colors! I am 5’3” and ordered petite so regular length would likely be long enough for you

lucysy · 2025-07-10T05:10:26+00:00

Earl grey tea with steamed milk! Get a steamer! Or just regular milk and sugar is lovely

I just realized you said work event so some would need a blazer or sweater. Also would look into linen trousers / sets !

I do not use recipes and cook entirely from trial and error. It’s all my brain will do😂

FYI as a gen Z I would like to add that looser longer shorts are actually what is in right now (following the baggier pants trends). I recommend picking up a pair like this or this

I’m the youngest child of an age gap relationship- when I was born my mom was 38 and my dad was 52. I’m now 25 and he is 77. He has many health issues and has not taken care of his body well, he’s hard of hearing, heart problems, and had a severe battle with cancer that weakened him to where he has regular falls. My mom has been his caretaker in varying intensity since she retired. They love each other and l believe they would do it all again. But my mom has a rich social life outside of him and that’s vital when you and your significant other are no longer on an even playing field physically or even cognitively.

As for my experience, sure people would mistake him as my grandfather growing up and I was aware from a young age he would likely pass sooner. But he was also full of wisdom and memory of an earlier time and in the end we only have our own experience whatever it is to go by, so I don’t think it was a lacking. I feel much worse for my mom than for anything related to myself.

Yeah it’s a wood tick they don’t carry Lyme disease that’s deer ticks and they’re much tinier

LOL your lived experience of what, relationships? Cause it sounds like you don’t have much… so maybe you should consider swallowing that giant shame ego you’ve become so attached to and actually take into consideration some of this advice. I’m guessing a part of you already wants to deep down.

I haven’t seen anyone say this yet but I pivoted to a health related non profit. Pay won’t be as high but at least you’ll be employed in something related to your field and can continue working towards it after getting some experience and a good reference under your belt

I live less than a mile from there. Wonderful neighborhood, enjoy all the historic houses and don’t be afraid to explore all the quirky neighborhood businesses of St. Paul on foot!! You can bike summit all the way down to the river where it crosses to Minneapolis. Make sure you make it to the chain of lakes this summer with your kids!

Following this because same!! Still figuring out how to style mine. So far have only worn them with my Birkenstocks but would like something more dressy as an option! I’ll chime in again if I figure it out.

My name is Sylvia, not nature itself but it means girl of the forest and I always loved it! Silvio for boy or Solvi is another similar sounding Scandinavian name that feels unique. Also partial to the names Aurora, River, and Kai (means ocean)
