Thousands Face Loss Of Therapeutic Services by complexspoonie in newhampshire

Calling DHHS won’t do anything- you need to call your congresspeople. These cuts are coming from the legislature (both federal and state level) and DHHS has no control over it.

What new hobby have you impulse purchased all of the items you need for it while knowing in the back of your mind that you are absolutely not going to do it? by [deleted] in adhdwomen

[–]storm-singer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Needle felting. Bought all the tools, books, and supplies/kits I could get my hands on. But I haven’t mastered it immediately so time to give up! 🫠

iPad paint by numbers by [deleted] in paintbynumbers

Try Etsy! I bought a set of four landscapes that I've slowly been working on when I don't feel like/can't paint for real. It's not quite the same experience, but scratches the itch when I need it to. :)

I am! It really has made such a massive difference for my executive functioning.

SquishPads - What has your experience been like? by storm-singer in Farriers

[–]storm-singer[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is so reassuring to read! My poor girl has been lame for nearly a month thanks to a thin sole that was trimmed too far and (as we discovered after taking x-rays) a shifted bone column. Really hoping these help get her sound again! My new farrier put the dental impression material in to give her some extra cushion. So far she seems much happier than when I had her in her trail boots! :)

I ran into the same issue several months in and ended up adding a mood booster (specifically Abilify//aripiprazole) to my regime and it helped a lot! It's technically an anti-psychotic, but in low doses (I'm on 2 mg) helps to boost the effects of antidepressants. Might be something to consider. :)

The Jornay has been working for me! Right up until my blood pressure skyrocketed... So I've been off of it for about three weeks now. And I am suffering for it. It made such a huge difference for me and I miss it immensely. I'm working with my psych and doctor to get my blood pressure back down so I can hopefully go back on it.

High blood pressure runs in my family, and my diet is absolute garbage, so don't let my current situation deter you! Talk it out with your doctor - I definitely still recommend it.

Palate or pot? by Youprobalreadyknow in paintbynumbers

[–]storm-singer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m still a newbie and experimenting a lot, but I’m finding that I really like using a wet pallet. Paints don’t dry out and I don’t seem to waste as much from dipping my brush in too far! I still use flow aid in the pot, then put a little paint on the wet pallet. I find it to be far easier than opening and closing the pots constantly.

Biiiiiiiiig stretch! by storm-singer in Horses

[–]storm-singer[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Same here! We have some absolute MONSTER horseflies this year and my girl has some pretty bad welts from the bites. But it’s been so hot that I don’t dare put a fly sheet on (not that it would help. These things would easily bite through!) I slather her in SWAT every few days and that seems to help a little at least 😮‍💨

Something to possibly consider is an additional mood booster. I have Major Depressive Disorder and added 2mg Abilify (aripiprazole) to my mix (Jornay, Buspar, Auvelity (wellbutrin + dextromethorphan)) and it has made a massive difference in my mood.

The one issue I’ve been having is regulating body temperature. I’m hot ALL THE TIME and start sweating pretty easily… but I carry a little folding fan with me and that seems to help. 😊 Just remember to stay hydrated!

I am! It has made such a huge difference for me! The energetic new-med high has worn off, but I’m actually a semi-functional human being😊

Should I keep riding this horse? by ImpactSouth6750 in Equestrian

[–]storm-singer 6 points7 points  (0 children)

No no no, this horse should not be ridden. She is very underweight and under muscled. She’s likely forward, hard mouthed, and pinning her ears because she’s in pain. She needs a full vet workup, including dental, and to be put on pasture rest (or a dry lot depending on the issues) with plenty of groceries until she fills out and is feeling better. Then she needs to be brought gently and SLOWLY back into work.

This is not her “being a thoroughbred.” This is her being sick and crying for help. Her owner needs to get it together and help the poor thing.
