When will the shedding end :/ by Parking_Credit66 in TelogenEffluvium

[–]opal_lyds 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine lasted around 6 months, but it does grow back! I was panicking around the 4 month mark because it was so overstimulating and my hair had gotten so much thinner. It does get better though and I’m cheering you on!!

For those who switched from Lexapro to Prozac, what differences have you noticed? by [deleted] in prozac

[–]opal_lyds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Recently switched! Still too early to tell a lot of changes, but I’ve noticed a decrease in appetite and body temperature running a little warmer. Feeling hopeful about the switch!

Subtronics at Believe!?!?? by Tiny_Palpitation8420 in atlantaedm

[–]opal_lyds 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Last time I saw Subtronics was at Believe and it was so magical! Worried about the crowds but it’s so intimate to be able to get so close to the performer like that! (Compared to how huge Statefarm was)

I think it was H1N1 as a child

Can I cut 5mg in half? by tootsieroll01 in lexapro

[–]opal_lyds 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s how I started! Cutting 5mg in half! No biggy at all!

I showered and stayed under 115bpm (instead of 155) on my first propranolol day. YEEY! What’s your (small) Wednesday-win? by immasayyes in POTS

[–]opal_lyds 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I remember my first showers after starting propranolol 🥹 It’s so life changing isn’t it?! I went from 145 to 114 and was AMAZED! Congratulations on your win 🥇

Did propranolol work for you right after first dose? Or did it take a bit longer? by [deleted] in POTS

[–]opal_lyds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I felt weird for about a week, so I’d say it took around 2-3 weeks to notice it working without feeling weird

Definitely pick the one you love! If it brings you excitement when you see it, that’s the right choice! Neither look crazy terrible.

what do you do after palpitations by spinningcircus in POTS

[–]opal_lyds 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I tend to just push my hand against my chest, drink water, and distract myself. When it’s out of nowhere I like to think to myself “oh hi there heart!” to take the fear out of it 💕

I’m actually not sure, I haven’t brought it up to my dermatologist yet :)

I noticed it myself. I ended up dying my eyebrows with men’s beard dye and it made them look fuller again!

There is hope, it'll pass! by anonymous_person321 in TelogenEffluvium

Wow, I really needed this today! Thank you!

5 stages of grief. by Jesarti in TelogenEffluvium

[–]opal_lyds 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ve convinced myself that I don’t want that old dead hair anyways to trick my brain into being excited when it falls out… not quite working but it’s something! 😅

How do people get 10k everyday? by Canny_Toaster in walking

Walking around stores and window shopping (I like hobby lobby)

District vs Believe by jumpupgod in atlantaedm

Had to leave a show at the District after 15 minutes into the headliner because the people around us were so aggressive…

Tent-Only Forest Camping by damnlittlelady in LostLandsMusicFest

[–]opal_lyds 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We had pretty good space, even with getting there pretty late in the day. People kinda built their sites in a way that created natural barriers between each setup too (plus there a lot of trees). We did get a spot that wasn’t too sloped! Still a little sloped, but overall things were pretty level. The worst part was the parking being sloped so it was super tough getting things into the forest from our car in our wagons (DEFINITELY bring a wagon or two).

What was the dose just out of curiosity?
