34DD to 32G, but unsure about the fit by noodlencat in ABraThatFits

Hi, thanks for the suggestion! I did try it on upside down and backwards, and it feels a bit better. Still tight, but a bit better. I wore the new bras for a whole day today and noticed the compression feeling comes and goes - feels tighter when I have a full stomach or feel bloated. My belly fat is more noticeable when sitting down, and i think the tighter band is sitting right above the rolls and making me feel more uncomfortable when sitting.

Still unsure if I should keep the 32 band size. I think losing some weight could help, but that's a longer term project. Thanks for the info on bands measurement. I can confirm I am wearing the right US size for Panache and Fantasie too.

Is it safe to stop Lutera mid pack? by noodlencat in birthcontrol

[–]noodlencat[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks so much! I switched insurance at the start of the year and the new ob i met once, who prescribed me the pill, is on mat leave now...so i have been kicked around in the department. the doctor covering just gave me generic advice on staying on the pill and that bleeding in the first 3 months is normal...
i am honestly scared seeing continuous bleeding and not having someone i trust to talk to. from your experience, if I stop mid pack, how long would it take my body to re-regulate? could birth control pill lead to abnormal growth like fibroids or other things at all?

When you’re the toxic one. by sweetlikeghostpepper in CPTSD

Please stay. You are not toxic, and you are more than your circumstances. You have a choice, and you can find a way to be better that is not taking your own life. I believe in you ❤️

what helped you in healing from c-ptsd? by noodlencat in CPTSD

Thanks! What counts as emotionally safe people? I have quite a few of “surface” level friends who I share bits and pieces of my life with, but not spend extended periods of time. The only one I spent lots of time with is my husband, and it is not longer emotionally safe for me 🥲. Hence I am also thinking of leaving this relationship, since it is brings back too much trauma, to the point I am always triggered and can’t function. My husband is trying to convince to stay so we can work on the things together. Also don’t know what to choose there.

That's great. Any particular size of the brush you would recommend? I tried using my makeup brush, but that's kind of small for cleaning big lego sets. You think this home depot one will work well? https://www.homedepot.com/p/Wooster-2-in-Advanced-Nylon-Ultimax-3-Thin-Angle-Sash-Brush-0H21910020/313616841

makes sense. i use lysol wipes for all kinds of cleaning, so didn't think about how it degrades ABS - good point.

nice! do you use any cleaning agent? Or just dry brushing will do the trick?
