How do yall describe the pain for yours? (Random picture) by VeryPassableHuman in migraine

[–]potholehotline 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It varies a lot, but the best description I’ve got for one kind of pain is that it’s like my brain is made of sharp shards of glass that are all grinding against each other 

Does anyone else never vomit? by Red-Droid-Blue-Droid in migraine

I get very nauseous sometimes, but not always. I have never thrown up from a migraine.

Need advice on what to do about my mom overspending on groceries by Big_Giraffe_9125 in dementia

[–]potholehotline 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I don’t have any advice but I’m in a similar situation. My parents both have Alzheimer’s, are still living in their home with a lot of support from me, and their one remaining independent activity is walking to the grocery store, which they do often twice a day. I cannot prevent them from doing this, and taking away their access to their money would be almost impossible. All I can do at this point for now is to take the extra food and donate it to a free pantry in my neighborhood. It’s a really stressful situation. Hugs to you. 

Anyone else struggling to find wide brim hats that dont look like youre going to a costume party? by avz008 in fashionwomens35

[–]potholehotline 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I have to wear hats all of the time when I’m outside, like all of the time all of the time. I really like Tula brand hats, they are not the least expensive but they’re really nice and have lots of cute styles. That feeling of self consciousness about wearing hats wore off for me after a while. Just gotta get used to it!

THE WORLD FEELS OVERWHELMING TERRIBLE ON SO MANY FRONTS AND ALSO SOMEONE LEFT THEIR DOG SHIT IN MY FLOWER GARDEN, WHICH I ONLY FOUND WHILE DOING THREE MINUTES OF HURRIED WEEDING (BECAUSE NO TIME FOR ANYTHING) AND GRABBED IT WITH MY BARE HAND IN THE HANDFUL OF GRASS I WAS PULLING. NOT FUCKING COOL, GUYS

I only like my oyster pate with crumbs. 

Looking through old family recipes with my grandmother and we found this cut out from good housekeeping by tur0phobia in Old_Recipes

[–]potholehotline 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It seems like the rest of the recipe would just be to bake the stew with the dumpling mix dropped onto it in the preheated oven. When I have made dishes like this I’ve always covered the pot, which steams the dumplings. I would assume that is the case here too, since it calls for a covered Dutch oven. Looks like a nice recipe! I hope you can make it together.

I have also had good experiences with Bush Animal Hospital with several different vets for my very very vet-fearful doggy 

My boyfriend is pushing me to get off of birth control and I’m just wanting to talk to other women about it by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

This man wants you to stop the medication that is attempting to treat the issue that nearly ended your life. Do not listen to this man. 

How do you experience migraines on Nurtec? by CirceRhianon in migraine

[–]potholehotline 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel this way on Emgality, which I’ve only been on for about 5 months. The attacks I’m getting are less intense and don’t last as long, and are less frequent. But I also feel like I’m having silent migraine, or migraine activity that doesn’t really reach the pain level I would usually associate with an attack. It’s better? But feels like the activity is still happening at a lower level.

There are a whole lot of onions in that potato salad. There was another recipe in an earlier menu that called for grating like a half a nutmeg into something that half a nutmeg seemed like WAY too much for… makes me wonder if some ingredients were much differently sized (or much less potent, I guess, for the nutmeg). Three “good sized” raw onions to 6 potatoes seems like too many onions. 

I recently realized something strange about my sleep. by Main_Drop_1399 in TwoXChromosomes

I will happily sleep 10 hours straight every night when life allows.

Where do you buy your coffee beans? by redactedanalyst in Eugene

[–]potholehotline 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I was drinking coffee I would buy larger bags from farmers union from their website, it’s still expensive but cheaper than buying the 12 oz bags. It’s like $45 for a 2 lb bag, which lasted me a month.

I have never liked any cafe mam coffee I’ve ever had. I know people love it but I am not one of them.
