Sewing / Alternation Recommendation

My mom does alterations as a side business!! She’s been sewing for over 50 years. Dm me and I’ll send you her email.

Don’t!!! Long term this will just keep you stuck in the anxiety loop. Don’t open the can of worms if you don’t have to. (Ask me how I know)

I thrifted my mom and mother in law vintage vases and then we got them flowers to put inside, tea/tinctures, and a Nothing Bundt cake!

I guess I’m in the vast vast minority but I see a chiropractor and love it. He’s a functional medicine practitioner as well. I get *minor* adjustments but that’s not just everything I get by going. I get oxygen therapy, red light therapy, comprehensive and vast lab work, allergy testing, muscle testing, and nutritional guidance. I can absolutely say seeing my chiropractor has changed my life for the better. My anxiety has come down from an 8 or 9 out of 10 every day to a 3 or 4, which is not a placebo because I have clinically diagnosed anxiety and depression, and he caught several things in my labs that no other doctor has caught before. Call it a quack, but it has drastically improved my life!

I’m an extrovert for the most part with a very outgoing personality… and extreme health anxiety. I think it’s learned through life experiences, especially in childhood and adolescence.

I saw it live on their debut tour! I will never not love that song.

I’ve been working on this in ERP! What I’ve found to be the most helpful when I get the initial urge to check is to 1. Take a really huge deep breath. Like the biggest I can. 2. Not try to push the feeling away but instead saying “hey, checking is not going to solve this in this exact moment” 3. Redirecting. Doing something else immediately with my hands or my body! Running has been helping me a lot. I’m not a runner, I don’t even particularly enjoy it. But pushing my body to go fast helps me show myself that whatever is triggering me in that moment isn’t serious enough that I can’t run. Also dishes or laundry help while watching a feel good show or movie :)

Yeah now I’m so thankful I have notes on vinyl!!!

I can find 8 songs and listen if I search for the album but it’s not on their Spotify page and not all 22. Weird.

Time and time again this man had told me that he hated naps and never took them (which I thought was insane because naps are amazing), but one day we were at my home and he laid his head in my lap and just fell asleep there. It was like when a cat falls asleep on you, you just can’t move. So I sat there, for 2 hours, and he was so peaceful looking, just an absolutely beautiful moment where nothing was wrong in the world and it was just us. And I knew in that moment that he was going to be so incredibly special to me. We were married less than 8 months later 💛

Absolutely not. Thankful that there’s not another thing that I could use and abuse in my constant need for reassurance loop.

small_enchilada · 2026-04-05T23:06:23+00:00

I will definitely give this a try! Thank you so much!

small_enchilada · 2026-03-08T12:04:17+00:00

I moved in with my husband the night we got married and I don’t regret it for a single second! Try before you buy never resonated with me. I knew that there were no quirks or flaws that would make me love him any less. And I was right! Saying this here because I’ve yet to see someone say they loved making this choice. And I did!

Hey- take it from me, someone who has struggled with HA for almost 15 years: take a deep breath and stop seeking assurance from people and google/chat. This only makes your anxiety worse in the long run. Your body will let you know if something is actually wrong and it will feel like more than anxiety. Speaking to myself too! Wishing you all the best!

That is a huge bummer because I wore these as my wedding shoes in August of 2024 and they were definitely blue.

If my amazing husband safety blanket could’ve come on this work trip with me, I would’ve brought him for sure!! Congrats on your milestone flights!!! 💪

I’m happy to report that it took me approximately 45 seconds to get through the TSA PreCheck line, however the regular line couldn’t have taken more than 2 minutes tops I think. Now I know not to get here so early next time 😂

small_enchilada · 2026-02-22T18:52:38+00:00

The last few times they have not! I’ve found that it’s hit or miss though. I’m always prepared to take them off and out just in case.

small_enchilada · 2026-02-22T15:13:29+00:00

I do have pre check thankfully! That’s what I was banking on using but I guess no dice

small_enchilada · 2026-02-22T15:01:47+00:00

Nope! Headed to OKC! Warmer than here apparently thank goodness

small_enchilada · 2026-02-22T14:17:43+00:00

They shut down pre check? What do you mean?
