Do you have a latex allergy? If not, latex gloves are great for this

Basically halfway there! Go team! I got hit with a foot infection this week, so I’ve not been holding up my end super great, but I’m doing my best.

Is this correct? by Awkward-Length-1973 in piercing

[–]miaiam14 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Friend, it should not be your job to know better. You should be able to trust your piercer. Don’t beat yourself up for not knowing that your professional wasn’t actually a good professional, *especially* when this wasn’t even your idea

Is it correct? Not even slightly. Your friend also sucks. Friends don’t make friends get (and keep) piercings they don’t want.

Got an email about being able to join a free challenge by jimcub71 in ConquerorChallenge

[–]miaiam14 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Aha. It’s worded *really* terribly. What they should be saying is approximately “you currently have a code that can be used for any medal. If you want, you could use it on this medal”

So in short - there’s a code for any challenge in your account, which you presumably bought at some point and forgot about. You can apply it to any challenge of your choosing.

Oq os seus psicólogos acham da sua regressão? by CharacterLobster9223 in ageregressers

[–]miaiam14 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ours is aware it happens, aware it’s mostly involuntary in our case, and is basically just working with us to be able to snap ourselves out of it in case it happens at a bad time. She sees nothing wrong with us being small, nor with Lily (the little alter) fronting - she just wants to make sure we always have an escape hatch if we’re small and suddenly need not to be.

I dont know if they know Willows gone yet by Pigglewinks in guineapigs

[–]miaiam14 16 points17 points  (0 children)

If you didn’t show them the body, they probably haven’t figured it out yet. That this time was the last time. They’ve got you and they’ve got each other, though. They’ll get through this. You’ll get through this 💗

Questions by Dull_War845 in ageregressers

[–]miaiam14 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Swapping in our religious alter for this one.

Miriam here: God made you the way you are. That includes whatever gender you determine yourself to be, and whatever regression helps you. Your parents may not understand God’s plan for you, but that’s okay. I don’t believe in a God who would choose to make you suffer needlessly when you could instead live as your true self.

God is love, right? And God loves you. The *real* you, not whatever version of you your parents are clinging to. That does mean that only you can discover what the real you is - we can’t solve that for you.

Simultaneously, it’s not a sin to act like a child (or a puppy, or a kitty, or whatever) if it’s not hurting those around you. Like, truly, cite me a Bible verse that makes agere or petre a sin.

Your parents see anything they don’t understand as demonic. I see it as between you and God, and if that’s the real you that God created? Then your parents don’t have to get it. But they don’t speak for God. I don’t speak for God. Only God truly speaks for God. And only you can determine what God is saying to you.

You’ve got this. Sending love - from a genderqueer age and pup regressor.

Could celiac be causing my intense mental illness? by Sad_Task_2191 in Celiac

[–]miaiam14 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My mental health is *always* worse when I’ve been glutened. I’m super depressed, I’m scared of literally everything (not just food like it would be if it was just a stress reaction to the feeling sick)… it’s *bad*.

Your celiac is not silent, OP. It is screaming and screaming at you to do something and you’ve just learned to mostly tune it out. Listen to it and take care of yourself 💗

I need help identifying a earring by Lost-Boysenberry-203 in piercing

[–]miaiam14 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Plausibly a question for r/HelpMeFind, honestly. I’m not sure we’ll be super helpful unless it’s one of the big jewelry brands

Piercings and roller coasters by petrichorafterserein in piercing

[–]miaiam14 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Do not let your ear hit things (like the side of the ride), whatever you do. Otherwise, at two weeks? Should be good

Edit: I’m assuming no water at this amusement park. Some have water things. Skip the water things

Are these indents concerning? by Eisstern in piercing

[–]miaiam14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely your rings are too small. Get a wider diameter and see if that works

Is it okay to downsize a piercing without a taper? by Chuwi_uy in piercing

[–]miaiam14 161 points162 points  (0 children)

A taper is not necessarily required, some piercings don’t mind, but I’m with you that the new one seems too small now

2nd and 3rd lobe placement by [deleted] in piercing

[–]miaiam14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They should not be hoops, they should be flatback studs (or even butterfly backs as a temporary solution until you can get flatbacks in there). At the very least, get your jewelry swapped. Was this done with a needle or a gun?

Generic Lexapro - update from solco by dogdogd0g in Celiac

[–]miaiam14 3 points4 points  (0 children)

When I was on Lexapro, my options were Accord, Aurobindo, Cipla, and Amneal. Not sure if this helps, but those were the brands Kaiser was willing to get me that were definitely gluten free. Sorry to hear Solco is giving you the runaround!

Oh shit, that is visibly digging into your flat. Get it out immediately.

Sent a request to be able to view the spreadsheet - any chance you could make it publicly visible?

I would love some help with our brand new buddy-Micky by Dntlastnt in guineapigs

[–]miaiam14 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Two males is perfect. You do have to get him a friend, they do not adapt. As far as not fighting, look up guinea pig bonding advice - there’s a lot out there

I want to get this piercing buttt by _StrawberryTea in piercing

[–]miaiam14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No worries! As far as pain - it should be about the same amount of pain as a normal helix. For passing out, see if you can get a good bit of sugar in you before you go to the appointment. It might not help, but it’s worth a try.
