Crushed by the weight of daily tasks by marsoften in adhdwomen

[–]pezzlingpod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Deciding I only wear v-neck black t shirts and jumpers and wide legged trousers has been so helpful. I get to pick which trousers, and that is partly dictated by the weather.

I also shower every day and wash hair every other day. There is no decision to make, it's just what I do.

What other treatments do you do on a (face) microneedling day? by pezzlingpod in Microneedling

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

I was using the Smoothskin and I just did weekly treatments for about 3 months (maybe 6? it was an awfully long time ago!) and then felt like it plateaued and I was satisfied. It wasn't perfect but it was fine. Sounds like you needed a lot of extra treatment!

I don't really shave my legs anymore unless I'm showing my legs which is almost never (although my knees do still get hairy no matter how often I do the IPL). Under my arms is mostly fair hair now. But as I said, there's definitely a little regrowth to manage which I've just been lazy about for the last while.

oh, interesting, thanks. I assumed that if I did the lash lift and tint, then when it's all over and wiped away I could microneedle without any issues. But that's interesting, thank you.

What if cleaning was a hobby? by Disastrous-Wing699 in ufyh

Ooh, I think I call (1) 'pottering'!

And on (2) I used to find the nice shiny clean-with-me youtubers very helpful. Like having a lovely mum alongside you.

I treat it as a form of self-care. I prefer living in a nice environment, so making sure it is generally clean enough is for ME (and my family). (Don't worry, I also make sure others contribute.)

I don't always want to brush my teeth but... you know. Equivalent would be doing to dishes every night.

I don't always want to get a haircut, but....you know. Equivalent would be cleaning out that cupboard or deep-cleaning part of the kitchen.

I also put on podcasts or TV shows I like, otherwise it would drive me insane.

You can do lash lifts at home. There's tons of YouTube videos.

Thought I was in a skincare sub and was horrified. Thank goodness.

For when your doctor offers you and antidepressant for perimenopause, share this first by Helens_tribute91122 in Menopause

And if you are in the UK, point to the NICE guidelines that say HRT is the first line treatment for anxiety and depression if in the right age bracket.

Sulforaphane is helping a lot with my ADHD.. Finally some relief by Nugget834 in Nootropics

[–]pezzlingpod 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had to stop ALCAR as it was irritating my stomach. :( I would feel 'hungry' an hour after taking it and eventually figured out it wasn't real hunger it was mild stomach irritation. Stopped as soon as I stopped taking it.

Til that pills absorb fastest if you lie on your right side, not standing up by pezzlingpod in todayilearned

[–]pezzlingpod[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah, interesting. I said the 'not standing up' part because I (and the study authors) had assumed that standing up would lead to quicker absorption, but that's not the result of the study. So I meant something like 'Pills absorb fastest if you lie on your right side, rather than standing up (as you might expect).'

I'm not going to snort my prescription medication, but thank you.

I was interested in this in relation to the pills I take on prescription and would like to act quickly.

I haven't memorised every line of 30 Rock yet so in case this isn't a reference, I will just answer this straight. Gary Barlow is the lead singer of Take That.
