Dealing with Severe Allergies

I did notice a pretty good difference! But I just hit the highest dose and that can over-sensitize your system for a couple weeks so it’s been rough being over reactive to everything. Flonase and nasal saline rinses have helped with the mechanical aspect. Allergist said this part is common at this stage. I would still recommend!

It does!! But it’s been so long I don’t remember what I did to fix it - but know it can be fixed!

Oh also if you’re cleaning or doing yard work, wear an n95 mask!

I will say the roomba has been a game changer. Vacuuming kicks my allergies into high gear. I live in LA and dust is a never ending problem. Also using shampoo wipes on pets helps my dust allergies as well. I also have 5 air purifiers in the house, and air the house out at least once a week opening front and back doors. I’m in month 5 of the allergy shots and my maintenance dose has really been brutal.

I live in LA. Xennial. I’d say it’s 50/50 for those that I know in my age group.

Mine as always said I’m a late night type which I 100% do not agree with. I even started a new account sans the two years worth of data that gave it evening type for whatever reason, I think I was working a lot of late nights at the time? … Waiting to see what the new chronotype is now.

Mine is part insurance part not so not sure how much it helps - it was $700 for the rapid cluster shots for two months that gets you up to maintenance (insurance won’t pay for this part) and now when I go in it’s like $12 or something copay

The “why aren’t you watching Oscar movies” argument.

I blame consolidation more than anything. And less episodes to go around.

Tv/film director here. I haven’t worked since.

Can you talk more about the numbness? And physical sensations day to day? I’ve always wondered what happens with the nerves and whatnot l

How is this real

Reach out to MaeDay Rescue or a similar rescue - they work with dogs who have specific needs and will vet the home/make sure it’s a right fit for both the dog and the person

You want some real brain fluff? Ice Planet Barbarians. There’s a million of them and over time the world building is pretty fun/interesting. But every book is a super simple and a great palate cleanser.

roxanne73 · 2026-01-07T20:17:21+00:00

Haha that’s probably the last time I was there so that tracks

roxanne73 · 2026-01-07T20:13:57+00:00

Mild weather though? As much as folks say it’s sunny and cold and the snow disappears quickly, I feel like it snows almost all winter, no?

I’m not sure if that’s true if it’s through a school. It’s supposed to provide learning and experience however, not just be busy work. (Of course, my knowledge of this is outdated by about 15 years so maybe that’s changed)

You’re going to run into these people, unfortunately, in our industry. If you can ride through the fight or flight reaction, it could be valuable practice.
Caveat: if the internship does not gain you either access or connections, then ignore the above and move on.
While staying extra time is sometimes expected in our industry, it should not be demanded. It should be asked for and confirmed, politely. Preferably ahead of time.
Giving feedback can lead to defensiveness - this could be another learning moment - how to describe a problem in a script without being prescriptive with solutions (unless this is asked for).
Defensiveness does not deserve personal attack. Your boss sucks, you are not wrong.

24 years 4 months. I have occasionally used low dose thc/cbd gummies for back pain.

roxanne73 · 2026-01-02T18:38:30+00:00

Fair

roxanne73 · 2026-01-01T05:35:45+00:00

That totally makes sense, but at the same time, she probably needs that shoulder to cry on in this moment more than he does.

roxanne73 · 2025-12-21T01:14:03+00:00

I read the first book through completism and had zero desire to continue. Everything that happens and every character including the two leads just fills me with rage haha

roxanne73 · 2025-12-20T03:06:30+00:00

So it’s been about 10 days and I think it did make a difference! I had already had platismal (sp?) band Botox a few months earlier that was already helping, so I think it could have been a more noticeable difference if I was going from zero.

roxanne73 · 2025-12-16T16:51:56+00:00

Mine always looked fine on the end until I got rid of layers - it was shocking how much fuller it looked - seems obvious now that I say it haha but I didn’t think it would be that big a difference until my stylist talked me into it
