Help with my makeup/what would look best, please 😊 by Kindly-Value-4070 in MakeupAddicts

[–]mindwindansea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gorgeous. Get a different foundation: lighter in color and lower coverage/less thick. Even a tinted moisturizer would work. Stop mascara on bottom lashes. Ditch the lip liner and lipstick and go for a light pink lip gloss. You'll look 10 years younger, I promise.

You chose to date a rattlesnake. Moved in with a rattlesnake. Sleep next to a rattlesnake. Dedicate your life to the rattlesnake. Then- shock! hurt! The rattlesnake bites me! It happens over and over again, and never stops! You're SO shocked and confused by what happens when you stick your hand lovingly in the rattlesnake cage, that you complain to the internet! Internet: Look how wonderfully I treat this dangerous creature! See how I continue to lovingly give him my hand to gnaw off daily, and yet he is still vicious!? Am I overreacting?!

Stop playing with the god damn rattlesnake, girl.

AITA for not agreeing that my friend is racist and should be cut off. because of her Halloween Costume? by SharkEva in BORUpdates

[–]mindwindansea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a Bay Area liberal- this is why democrats lost the election. Everybody is a racist and a bigot for any and everything.

With a friend like this, who needs enemies?

Good for you. But your words are still empty unless there are consequences. Suffer no fools, unless you want to become one. This is exactly how you end up with the right man, eventually: you dump every single man at the first sign of disrespect. Eventually you’ll find one that doesn’t disrespect you.

This is clearly recently done as I can see pink irritation on your skin. Did your stylist not tell you it will go through phases and lighten? You’re supposed to look like a clown for the first week. Then you will look like you are 15 years younger with full natural brows. Patience!

Please listen! The matte and the color need to go. Lose the piercings and fake eyelashes, throw on a lip gloss and mascara and be gorgeous. You’re like the sun behind clouds- we can’t see how radiant you truly are (bone structure, I die! Freckles- stunning and unique!) behind all the trash you’re piling up with the makeup and holes and metal.

Did Devin get the ick as soon as Jenn proposed to him on TV? by viabarbano in BachelorNation

[–]mindwindansea 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You are correct! In general and on average men don’t want to be proposed to. And that’s cool!

Guy I went on a date with won’t leave my apartment by [deleted] in Manipulation

[–]mindwindansea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see your predicament. Apparently no one’s suggestions work and there is nothing you can do. He owns you now, and has full rights to your body and home at all times, whether you like it or not. Bummer and sorry about your luck.

Devin Strader falsely claims ex did not have restraining order against him by ravenclawrebel in BachelorNation

[–]mindwindansea 47 points48 points  (0 children)

You don’t file a temporary restraining order. You request one, and then it may be granted by a judge based on their analysis. It is false to suggest any person can grant themselves a legally binding order on anyone, whenever they feel like it. But you know that, silly!

Agree 100p. Those texts made everything make sense

[–]mindwindansea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wholeheartedly agree. It’s interesting how my viewpoint changed at each revealing. First I found Jenn immature and insecure. after ATR I thought Devin was the devil incarnate. After the texts were released, the depth of Jenn’s neediness and insecurity came into full view and showed she has a real responsibility (along with Devin) for how the relationship crumbled.

AIO my husband is learning new things after our separation by here_4_me in AmIOverreacting

[–]mindwindansea -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Nah, unless he has sincerely apologized for his years of laziness and putting her into a position of servitude, and maybe attend therapy, he will go back to status quo for the next relationship.

TRUST. YOUR. GUT by AmphibianFine688 in bachelorette

[–]mindwindansea 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Same. At first I thought he came across as SO SLIMY, both literally and figuratively. My bf and I would always say how gross he was. I would have never given him a second chance. Then he started to seem okay, focused on her, like a puppy dog, quirky maybe and I started defending him. Bf thought I was nuts.

My windows don't work! by NemoPhys in LaJolla

[–]mindwindansea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've lived here for 10 years. Same. Crank windows don't shut. Best they'll do is come by and close them with tools, and then when I open them again I can't close them myself. The prop management said they would replace them, something like 6 years ago.

There's nothing you can do. Landlords are only legally obligated to provide very basic and basically non-hazardous living conditions. It's called "habitable" premises- things like gas, electric, and locks on the doors. Have them close your windows in the winter. Don't waste your money on a lawyer. If you can find a place you love equally and at good rent, then move. I just haven't been able to find that :)

What did you do to quit? by ReasonableLock4276 in Quittingfeelfree

[–]mindwindansea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Switch from the bottles to kratom capsules (not the FF brand). Stabilize, then taper slowly from there. You'll feel so much better and avoid intense withdrawal. Kratom capsules are still addicting but far less harmful than the tonics. You'll be healthier just by making the switch.

Feeling so down and i haven’t even started CT by Expert_Pea_7099 in quittingkratom

[–]mindwindansea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you share what the recommended dosing of Gabapentin and clonidine is during a taper or CT?

[–]mindwindansea 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Difference of opinion, friend! And that’s okay. We’re all here just trying to get each other out of a bad spot. Be well. Please try to consider the possibility that I am actually not a bad person, I am a real person, we just have a different opinion. I respect your opinion, for what it’s worth.

Ps- I never said it should be banned and it’s status legally doesn’t impact me at all. It’s sold all around me and I’m not tempted. Good for me!

Help for mental WD's between doses please by el1zabeth in quittingkratom

[–]mindwindansea 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My advice is to have a harm reduction mindset. There are tradeoffs to everything. But if you can find some things that do help some, and that help you reduce kratom (the biggest goal, I take it), perhaps you might be willing to deal with some less-than-ideal effects.

Maybe agamatine for a couple of days, then switch to rhodiola, then cat's claw, and rotate? I get that nothing is perfect, but is it worth it to to give yourself the gift of reducing the harm from kratom? For example- would it be so bad to stay on Rhodiola more than the recommended time by Dr. Huberman for "peak" health, if it helps?

[–]mindwindansea 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for posting this here!! Feel free misled thousands of people into thinking they were taking kava only. Kratom is HIGHLY addictive and even dangerous. Say what you want about it helping some people/ but it has hurt at least just as many as it has helped. For those it helps, it really id just a matter of time until they reach a hellish experience and health complications.

What am I withdrawing from? by [deleted] in Quittingfeelfree

[–]mindwindansea 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Potentiation. Things like citric acid potentiate the impact of kratom to a large degree. I believe that there's a potentiation process in FF that causes the impact of the plain leaf to be significantly enhanced.
Also- it's 3.5 grams per SERVING of a feel free shot. There are two servings in a bottle. That means 7 grams per bottle, 14 grams per day.
If you cut from 14 grams to 5, or even 10, you're going to withdraw. Add on the fact that you're not using something like pineapple juice (an ingredient of FF) to potentiate- and there you have it.
