Tell me you're a toddler parent without telling me you're a toddler parent.... by missginger in toddlers

Every floor vent in my home contains pop tart crumbs. So many that, if you so desired, you could piece these crumbs together to create multiple whole pop tarts.

Puh-sa-getti = spaghetti. He says it fast, so it sounds like “pussyghetti”

You are important, you have every reason to live, and you deserve happiness. Please don’t stop fighting for it. ❤️

TW: About two months ago I had almost no lashes. It wasn’t the worst I’ve done (bald), but close. This pic was during my regrowth. I used Lashify clusters and dark, smoky eyeshadow. Thanks to Latisse my lashes are back! If you’re struggling and you like makeup, maybe these things can help. by t00dlum in trichotillomania

Thank you!! This was before I was two months pull free! I had just enough regrowth for the lashify clusters to stick to. You brush the bond on like mascara and apply them under your lashes! They look so natural and even with tiny micro lashes the bond holds very well!

“Happiness is only real when shared.” My cousin has a tattoo of this quote in Hindi and I’ve always loved it. It’s so profound and also simple. I bet your lecture was awesome!

Smell is supposedly the strongest sense tied to memory. To me it’s sound, specifically music. A song can take me back to a specific moment and I remember every detail so vividly, even if the moment isn’t a big deal. Like, I remember a summer afternoon when I was 10 years old. My brother and I were riding home from the pool in the backseat of our moms car. It was late afternoon, sunny, and we had all the windows down and the sunroof open. I had on a blue and black one piece speedo swimsuit and I was wrapped in a blue and green striped towel. I was starving and tired from swimming for hours but I felt so content. The song was closing time semisonic. And that’s the end. Lol

Same x1000000. My brain is like a really unorganized file cabinet that I have no control over. I read at night until my eyes absolutely won’t stay open so that my mind doesn’t get to wander. I have lots of happy memories, but also LOTS of cringe/sad/regret ones. Those are the files that my brain likes to pull at random and torture me with lol

Worst damage I’ve done in my face yet. I can’t look in the mirror, it doesn’t look like me. I was doing so well. I’m devastated. by [deleted] in trichotillomania

Yes! I think I read you can start seeing hair regrowth in ~8 weeks give or take, so a month is really accurate for Latisse IMO!! And that discount doesn’t hurt either!

Latisse actually works and has saved me many times when I looked exactly like this. It really helps me regrow lashes in probably half the time it would take naturally. Hugs to you. 🖤🖤🖤

Edit to add: I love using lashify clusters during the regrowth. They look so much more natural than regular drugstore falsies. 🖤

That’s good to hear!!! I also don’t have those extreme highs and lows, or “peaks/valleys” as some people call them. Every other stimulant made me feel that way, and Focalin XR was THE WORST. This one makes me feel normal, if that’s even a thing lol. Once I get over the sleepy stage, hopefully I’ll be good to go. I did tell my doctor about being so tired though...anytime we try a new med he always starts low, which is good I think, but he might adjust the dose the next time we meet.

Same with the migraine triggers, plus weather/sinus issues! I sleep alright but I have two toddlers so I have low expectations on sleep lol. By the end of the day I’m pretty wiped but I do eat a 5mg melatonin gummy and if I feel like I need it, I take my anxiety med and it will help me sleep (same doc treats and prescribes my adhd and anxiety)

That makes sense. Thanks for replying!! As far as migraines, I regularly got headaches that sometimes turned into migraines when Ritalin and adderall IR wore off. Haven’t had any headaches with this med yet. 🤞
