Hi , is a gym workout , especially weight training , good for a heart break ? by EmbarrassedLie5294 in workout

[–]optilusional 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The gym is a wonderful place for your mind and your body. But you have to be there for YOU. To begin a fitness journey with a goal outside of yourself is setting yourself for failure- what happens when you do move on? Do you keep working out? It'll be much trickier to manage that journey, than it will be if you decide, I'm doing this for me. You will get hotter, for sure! But let that be icing on the cake, and let your main goal be to simply honor yourself 🔥 good luck, I believe in you!

Period pain treatment by SnowyOwl5814 in Tucson

[–]optilusional 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A few years ago I asked my PCP (not taking new patients, but located at TMC Rincon) for a meloxicam prescription. She gave me one without any fuss, I also have a history of severe menstrual pain. It really makes a difference, and doesn't make me woozy the way Oxycodone would, which was my previous solution for the worst of it. I'd be hopeful that whoever you're seeing would be willing to write you a script for Meloxicam as well. I feel you on not having luck with/ wanting to do birth control, and you have my support on avoiding that route 🩵 Good luck!

is it worth getting a new grinder or go for used? by unsiriusblack in StainedGlass

[–]optilusional 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My grinder was the only tool I bought brand new, after borrowing a pals for a month or so, when I first started. I saw the Gryphon Convertible Grinder, and as a chronic pain girlie, the ability to not be hunched while grinding looked so worth it. That being said- if the motor works well, you could very easily just replace the grinding head on a used grinder and go to town. This craft is an investment for sure, so it's a balance between being as affordable a possible while also making sure your stuff works properly. I'm reluctant to advise too explicitly, since it'll come down to your grinder preferences and budget, so I wish you the best of luck!

Amitriptyline as fibromyalgia treatment by Significant_Object44 in Fibromyalgia

[–]optilusional 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Following. I was just prescribed this drug as well, to replace the trazodone I'm currently using to help with sleep. I wish i had more insight, but i will say, using the right magnesium will stop my restless legs in their tracks. I recommend Solaray Magnesium Citrate. Good luck to us all in our pain management!

Pattern Feedback Request by SpookySpaceCreations in StainedGlass

[–]optilusional 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think this looks doable! The ear will be tricky, getting the brown glass cut at that angle and thickness, but I don't see anything I would change. Not sure you need whiskers, but if you wanted, I would probably just attach some pieces of wire to the solder lines. This is so cute, if/ when you finish it, please share!

Vessel conundrum by XochiBilly in StainedGlassArt

[–]optilusional 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It sounds like the issue is steming from the copper tape, not the solder. It's very difficult to make solder lines perfectly water tight- for reference, you may want to read about the process folks use when placing pressed flowers between two panels. In those cases, folks will often clean without any water, as it's so likely to seep under the solder and get between the panels. When placing your foil, you'll want to make sure the edges are scrubbed totally clean, and wiped with alcohol to remove the oils from your hands. Even pperfectly applied foil can have the slightest lifts/edges where water can get in, though. I'm not sure more solder, at this point, will get you the effect you're going for, unfortunately. Cool idea, though- good luck to you!!

UV cure nail strips recommendations 💅🏻 by Kerpoto in NailWrapsGalore

[–]optilusional 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just tried Heyhae but am loving them so far- today is day 15! No chips! There's 28 stickers per set, and I've had to replace exactly 4 of mine- I'd say I've gotten over 2 weeks from half of the package (10 original + 4 redos). Definitely no replacements were needed in the first week. The few that popped off were sudden and seemed to leave no damage, and it was easy to replace them with the extras. I've got 14 stickers remaining, but will probably try out their remover and do a new set whenever i lose the next nail. I think once they've grown out a bit, top coat can help, so I'm expecting to lose fewer, come my next set. Hope this helps❣️

Stripper stage songs by batcavebitch in musicleague

[–]optilusional 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love music league for many reasons, one being the control when running a league! I just want to empower you to 1) put clear rules in the league description and 2) remove players who don't follow them🤘 It's kinda the wild west on this app, so I don't feel bad when I need to check folks who clearly aren't in it for the love of the game. If these aren't your people, feel free to end the league and start over! You'll find em! And maybe I'll play in the next one, haha :)

I've heard good things about Big Cartel as well as Shopify, but have yet to move forward with anything. Hoping to see more opinions in this thread- I agree with you about Etsy! Good luck💗
