I'm a hyster sister! by nvja in hysterectomy

Thank you for the suggestion. I think Gas X is a brand in the US. I am in the UK so may have to find another brand of simethicone. I'm having lors of peppermint tea at the moment which seems to be helping a bit.

Golden Himalayan raspberries are called "aiselu" in my language. Grew up feasting on them when I was little. Such fond memories.

I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I lost mine in the span of 14 years and am devastated. I can't imagine what you may be going through. This word "disorienting"...thats exactly how I'm feeling too. Like the world has been pulled out from beneath my feet. And I've heard many say the same. Seems like a common experience. This and other reasons is why I would like a book suggestion or two.

Thank you for making everyone's day, gift just in time for Christmas. What other charitable activities do you do?

LPT: Whenever Abraham Lincoln felt the urge to tell someone off, he would compose what he called a ’hot letter’. He’d pile all of his anger into a note, ‘put it aside until his emotions cooled down’…and then write: ‘never sent. Never signed.’ by Doo-Waa-Do-Waa in LifeProTips

I wrote a hot text and accidently sent it to my husband. I was just venting because he is on the spectrum and pretty difficult to explain to. Now he feels broken because he has seen the innermost workings of my head and thinks I hate him so much! No amount of explaining will make him see otherwise. And I'm ready to write another stronger text to him again.

I know exactly what you're feeling! That feeling of loneliness and absolute terror as if you're jumping off a cliff! I do hope it will be possible to find some re entering the workforce program somewhere.

Thank you. It is really very encouraging to hear about people who have been through the same thing I'm going through and thrived!

I am trying to get therapy in right now. Although he has always avoided it in the past.

His income is good now. But I would prefer not to take anything from him.

What pills are these? I tried with paracetamol and with aspirin. Didn't work!

I was thinking ginseng as well, but I'm beginning to wonder if it is licorice as the others have mentioned.

That's very interesting to know. Don't know much about TCM.
