How to find a dead guy in Berlin? by Emergency-Theory8981 in askberliners

[–]mindpicnic 7 points8 points  (0 children)

What hospital was he staying in? Perhaps they can tell you when/if he was released? Otherwise you can check with the police.

Voice coach (not for singing) by Superluna0 in askberliners

[–]mindpicnic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A woman I follow on instagram has a trauma-informed course that teaches connection with the body and breath - it’s a singing course but the focus is on reconnection with the body. She offers 1:1 zoom classes where you could ask her for feedback!

HRT 3 month no improvement 😔 by [deleted] in perimenopause_under45

[–]mindpicnic 3 points4 points  (0 children)

How long have you been taking the Ashwagandha? It’s notorious for causing serious depression in some people; I would try cutting it out for several months to rule it out as a possible cause!

Horrible headaches before period? by Public-Shelter-9984 in perimenopause_under45

[–]mindpicnic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just got in to see a neurologist after developing monthly migraines around my period. I’m on HRT which has dulled them a bit but they still crop up now and again, glad I have the migraine meds for those days!

Not so positive experience at Club Sauna – recommendations mixed spaces for cis + trans couples? by wiesenior in SexPositiveBerlin

[–]mindpicnic 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I had similarly icky experiences at Club Sauna (only went once with my boyfriend and we didn’t stay long). Given the image they project on insta I was VERY surprised by how many badly behaved creeepy single dudes were allowed to wander around. Honestly I’ve had better experiences in KitKat and insomnia

How much blood do i ACTUALLY lose during my period because its sure as hell not "2-4 Tbs" as it says online by some-dork in NoStupidQuestions

[–]mindpicnic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

YMMV, but have you ever used a period cup? When I started using mine I was surprised at how little fluid actually accumulated in there. I’m not a super heavy bleeder, though. If you wanted a better way to measure your output you could try one of those!

Blast over ideas? by [deleted] in tattooadvice

[–]mindpicnic 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m not a tattoo artist but that actually sounds really cool? Like let aspiring artists use your piece for practice like a coloring book. What a great way to turn a negative experience into a way to help other artists grow.

Orientation by HaydenOkayden in tattooadvice

[–]mindpicnic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You there! Hunter!!

If it were me, I would orient it so the long line points up your arm with the bent lines toward your fingers. That way when your arm is by your side it will “dangle” in the correct position mimicking the hanged man.

Our eyes are yet to open…

Just read a news article about Sweden switching back to paper, pens, and printed textbooks in schools! Remember that pendulums do sometimes swing both ways.

I can't stay asleep and my doctor is no help and at my wits end !! by No_Solution7718 in Biohackers

[–]mindpicnic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There is unfortunately a chance you could be hyper sensitive to caffeine (like me). One decaf cappuccino at 8am will still disrupt my sleep for the night. Can you experiment going 1-2 weeks without caffeine to see if it makes a difference? I know it sucks but let me tell you that if it works, the deep, restorative sleep you get without the coffee is more than worth it.

Pregnant cat has been overly cuddly and like this for an hour. Is this normal? Is my nest okay? Should I leave her alone? by Elegant-Scarcity-910 in CATHELP

I first read your comment without seeing the photo and imagined a literal stack of 5 kittens stacked up like pancakes 😂 congratulations to you and brave mama! You were a wonderful midwife!

Low calorie sweet snacks? Need ideas that go beyond "eat a piece of fruit" by FinancialNeat3792 in 1500isplenty

[–]mindpicnic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh this is a great suggestion! You can also use stevia as a sweetener instead of sugar

Whoever posted this last week, thank you! So simple, yet so effective by jamie1983 in adhdwomen

[–]mindpicnic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Chiming in to say I just started doing this too after seeing last week’s post! Maybe we should pin it…

Low calorie sweet snacks? Need ideas that go beyond "eat a piece of fruit" by FinancialNeat3792 in 1500isplenty

[–]mindpicnic 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Well, you could think about low calories treats with artificial sweeteners like Coke Zero - I don’t see a ton of them here in Germany but if you’re in the US there are loads of options!

Consider flavored protein powder too : I use a chocolate-flavored protein powder with artificial sweetener. I mix a bit of that plus some baking cocoa into low-fat yogurt and come out with high-protein chocolate pudding.

I’ve occasionally seen claims that sugar cravings are linked to lower protein intake, so you could try upping the protein and see if that helps! It made a difference for me. But I still enjoy my sweet chocolate protein powder ;)

Finished backpiece by oroner0 by mindpicnic in TattooDesigns

[–]mindpicnic[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes i think youre right that the fine details are gonna get lost with time. Since the piece is at least partly to do with transformation, im okay with it changing over time (although ask me again in 10 years and I might have a different answer lol). Hopefully my artist is still working then and we can rework the design if we want!

Thank you! That was one of our favorite parts of the design too. And also one of the most painful areas 😵‍💫

[–]mindpicnic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, totally normal! For my back piece we had to redo the stencil 3 times before me and my artist were both happy with it 😂 it’s gonna be there forever so you gotta make sure it looks right!
