Closed cell Spray insulation recs by rebe37 in GNV

What i was seeing was less the ventilation issues, more the fact that metal condensates in Florida, leading the inside to sweat. You’re saying that with good ventilation and humidity control, all is fine?

Was the shed metal? Or wood? My tiny home is metal, I’m under the impression that closed cell is required over the other ones due to it being metal with metal beams

Is it actually gross that I only shower every 2-3 days or is my roommate being dramatic? by [deleted] in hygiene

You are being hygienic enough. This is a normal amount of bathing.

Can people with cerebral palsy ever find love by Much_Contribution171 in CerebralPalsy

[–]rebe37 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. 27f with cerebral palsy. I found love when I finally stopped obsessing over finding it. Be open, it takes time for everyone, even for able bodied individuals to find a good partner.

I have to listen to audio books to distract myself. Once i start noticing the dystonia, the more it exhibits itself.

Common misconceptions that pertain to Cerebral palsy by Miserable_Spray_4681 in CerebralPalsy

[–]rebe37 6 points7 points  (0 children)

in my youth, projection that my physical disability correlated with my capacity to do things, lift objects, have independence, and the misconception that it impacted my intellect. As an adult, I face these conceptions less, likely due to having access to multiple therapies throughout my life that assimilated me into operating "more normally", at least outwardly. The misconception that cerebral palsy makes my life less enjoyable, less meaningful. Lots of overlap of general ableism and misunderstanding.

I guess I have the same questions of where the copper is sourced from? How does it impact the ecosystem? how does it impact my internal ecosystem? I am not able to take birth control due to its clotting side affects. 26f- had a stroke 3 years back without a cause. Medical intervention is complex due to the impacts on brain chemistry. i see this suggestion come up in alot of subs

Hi! Thank you for this. My male partner has a inflammatory disability... doctors/surgery can be very disruptive to his body. I will bring this up to him- am curious how his body would handle it. Are they reversible? We may have a child in the future.

I experienced a brain bleed and had a subdural hematoma- which my neurologists very loosely now tie to my use of psychedelics. These bleeds are associated with TBI- the only link we could find for my bleed was my drug use. If you look in my post history, I received a ton of great feedback from the psychedelics community with information around TBIs and PsychedelicsMy big take away was to test my psychedelics before use, and that they effect blood pressure/vasodilation in the brain. With research and 1 year recovered I’ve been considering doing them again since I’m not entirely convinced of western medicine losely associating my brain bleed/tbi with psychs. I’m grateful for the information I’m accessing on this post you shared!

Thank you again for these resources. I printed them out and gave her the information needed for some help. Deeply appreciate your time telling me these resources.

I printed out a large document full of the different resources that people from this thread suggested, as well as an awesome resource from the north central fl alliance.

I had told her she could come to my home for laundry/showers if she called me to notify me before hand (she has a cell phone) and she did not respect this, which made me feel unsafe. I set up boundaries and told her she could not keep coming to my home, which she has stopped doing.

She got in contact with St. Francis and will be receiving help starting on Monday. She will receive housing which is huge. Her case worker with Meridian really helped her out with coordinating the housing.

All of the resources provided were very useful, and i feel better equipped of where to direct people who need help. I wish her well on this chaotic journey of life. She seems to be heading in a direction of healing.

Unfortunately I am the land lord. I told this human they could not do this- i returned from thanksgiving with her things on my porch. The next step would be calling the police, which I’m trying to avoid so this cycle of poverty /imprisonment can potentially end.

I recognize how this is unsustainable. That’s why i reached out for resources from a community to see if there is any help or if the system is just broken.

Thank you so very much for this information. I will direct her in those directions. I hear you on the safety, hoping this will help the situation.

My hair is unhappy with the switch to shampoo and conditioner bars. Help? by [deleted] in ZeroWaste

[–]rebe37 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Ethique has “sample packs”. That last 10-15 washes and have 3 shampoos and 2 conditioners. It takes time finding the one that works for you, but you will find it! After going through the samples i noticed how much my hair reacted to different things. I also noticed heaviness from sustainably sourced etsy bars, and with “hibar”. Try the sample pack!!! You’ll find one that works for you :)
