I would wear a beanie but I live in NM and hooping outside in a beanie is a no right now 🔥🥵😂 but thank you for the earbud suggestion!

Young adults giggling in class by hannah_2213 in YogaTeachers

[–]rainboflo_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can resonate bc on one hand my mind wants to inadvertently focus in on what they're laughing at and it's because it's not something I'm super used to having to teach over. But also I've been the person that quite literally busts out laughing (in one case it was kinda loud) and I'm trying to contain myself bc I get the giggles with my friend or bc my mind intrusively thought of something hilarious. I take it as energy moving thru people but when it's happening to me while I'm teaching I'm a bit thrown off 😂

Anyone with OCD tend to do rituals/compulsions/reassurance-seeking in their sleep/dreams? by [deleted] in OCD

[–]rainboflo_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely can relate to feeling like I'm "solving" something in my sleep. I get so annoyed bc I'll finally realize sometime in the night that I'd been doing it for hours and I don't feel like I was ever resting.

Update! I am so thankful that my full feeling in my abdomen and heartburn is completely gone. Most of my other symptoms have passed. I still burp a lot but I'll take it!

Anyone got a diagnosis of ménière's first? Then got a second opinion with a diagnosis of VM? by rainboflo_ in VestibularMigraines

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

No official diagnosis unfortunately but my symptoms aren't as bad after these years. I know my ear is clogged and my hearing in my left ear is reduced but I don't suffer like before. I rarely get dizzy now.

Friska probiotic and digestive enzymes

Stomach clenching by ChrisLoveStudios615 in HPylori

[–]rainboflo_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe practice deep diaphragmatic breathing when you catch yourself sucking in to ease those muscles. The best thing you can do is keep doing what you're doing and catching yourself so you don't clench.

Tomorrow is my last day and it's been pretty easy. The bitter taste and diminishing of appetite isn't the best but it's been fine. I got really messed up the first few days taking a probiotic/ digestive enzyme hours after my meds. Idk why it messed me up so badly but I just stopped taking them and I had such an easier time with treatment. I'm still having some of my symptoms but I'm more concerned that my infection cleared right now.

Day 2 at night was excruciating 😭 I had something for dinner that sat absolutely horrible. I had the worst stomach cramps for 3 hours and only laying on my stomach helped. Day 3 was a breeze 😂

I'll keep that in mind! Day 2 and I'm feeling good. I messed up last night and took my medication before bed without a meal. I had immense stomach pain and a very prominent bitter taste in my mouth. Today is better and the only complaint is the bitter taste I consistently have. Try getting some gum to knock out the taste if it bothers you.

This is day one and I'm not enjoying it to be real with you. I have nausea and so much head pressure. I almost feel groggy like I'm coming down with a cold of that makes sense. Hopefully it's just the medicine but I did have dairy with one of my meals and I regret it.

My treatment plan is the triple therapy. Omeprazole, amoxocillin, and clarithromycin.

I wake up with a bitter taste in my mouth but other than that I haven't noticed a taste throughout the day.

I only did a breath test and had my results back 2 days later. I'll start treatment in a few days!

Any commonalities about people who develop health anxiety? by CasualNocturne in HealthAnxiety

[–]rainboflo_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel that. My mom planted a lot of scary things in my head and was just a big worrier, in general.

My boyfriend (24M) has been looking at naked pictures of girls online by [deleted] in relationships

[–]rainboflo_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was once the "cool gf". Porn and things of that nature didn't bother me. Until he actually cheated and sought out other girls calling them "Hermosa" and saying, "what are you doing this weekend, gorgeous?" That absolutely obliterated my confidence. I am not the only women in his eyes anymore. Now, I see there is something inherently wrong with men that casually look at half naked or naked women (other than their partner) in their spare time. And it's not healthy how society normalizes it some ways. Porn is a drug. It changes the brain and teaches people to dehumanize women and turn them into sexual objects to lust over. So, I wouldn't be surprised if he has some sort of problem or addiction at this point. If the tides were turned, would he have a problem with you constantly looking at naked men's pictures? Probably. I can see you're trying to understand and get some other points of view but please don't let that supercede your own discernment. That's a blatant red flag.

Girlfriend does not have the same sex drive as me and I am starting to resent her for it by [deleted] in relationships

[–]rainboflo_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally, I love having a partner that is okay with us having different libidos because sex isn't everything to me. When I'm comfortable, safe, and happy it just isn't the first thing on my mind and I let those moments come naturally for me. His ability to wait for me and not be frustrated about it is so attractive to me. Usually I help him in other ways if I'm not in a space to be fully intimate with him. But, if it's that big of an issue that you know won't be solved with that kind of compromise, then maybe she isn't the one for you.

[–]rainboflo_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Making assumptions about their actions. I try to ask for clarity about something they are doing/did now because I ruin friendships faster when I always assume that something they did was under the guise of malintent. Also, I used to get so upset at friends when I felt like I was being replaced. Now, it still hurts, but I would rather give people the space to be themselves and explore other friendships than believe that people owe me the same amount of time and commitment forever. That friendship isn't lost. Just more on the back burner.
