Ugh maybe. Mine was disabled Sunday. I honestly care less than I expected. But it mostly sucks that I don’t have fb marketplace anymore!!! Worst case if I never get it again then idk my life will go on

norrainnorsun

I hope so ugh. So weird!!

You’ll be fine if you stop. You’re not wrong about the dangers but the body is resilient and will heal if you actually stop

what does mature mean to you? What things do you do that you consider to be more mature than others your age? What habits and behaviors can you point to as evidence of your maturity? What experiences were moments you realized you were particularly mature? I have a suspicion that the things you think as an 18 year old are based purely in maturity are not what you’ll think are mature things in 4 years. Based on experience of being 18 once and knowing this changed for me.

However, I could be wrong and obviously we are different people with different experiences, so I’d love to hear your perspective.

I think it’s so cool and pretty!! Honestly my only issue is that it just looks too casual, like a sun dress imo. Maybe could be a good rehearsal dinner dress.

norrainnorsun

Maybe u can go on one of those fashion subs (I can’t remember atm but I think there’s even a findFashion sub) and ask if they know of a similar dress? Or reverse image search this one?

Honestly. this is probs an insane thing to say. But if it were me, I can’t say I wouldn’t consider ozempic purely to fit into my dream dress 😂😂 Not bc I hate my body or would even care about being that skinny, purely like oh my dream dress is too small? I got a guy for that, lol. Esp if I was already losing weight. I am simply speeding the process up. But yeah that’s just me, if you’ve ever considered it just know I’d do the same thing 💁‍♀️

Tell her to go suck a lemon, wear the dress you love!! Straight up doesn’t matter what she thinks. Also, STOP TELLING HER YOUR PLANS. It sounds like she only ruins them so just keep them to yourself and maintain your joy. If you physically cant stop yourself from telling her, examine the relationship and ask yourself why you want to please her so badky

Not replace it really, but maybe just raise my baseline a bit. I don’t experience a huge crash from it, I mostly use l tyrosine if I’m feeling super sluggish and groggy. Honestly if anything, it kinda keeps me wired for a long time and kinda makes it harder to fall asleep.

I totally feel the decreased caffeine effect the next day. It sucks so much. You’re both addicted and feel so gross. I had a 5 hour energy phase in college that was AWFUL lol. Huge ups and downs.

honestly this whole trial and error process of finding something that balances me out and keeps me from being sad has been a years long journey. I’ve tried a bajillion supplements, yoga and meditation, running a lot, bla bla. Yoga and meditation are a good thing to fall back on for acceptance when the supplements are all flopping.

Honestly looking back I. Think I should’ve just tried Wellbutrin. It’s an antidepressant focused more on dopamine bc serotonin. That probably would’ve been way more effective and given me more stable mental health to heal rather than chasing the next coffee hit lol

Omg call an ambulance. You probably won’t die, you’ll just be SEVERELY DISABLED!! And then your life will suck even more. You won’t be able to do ANYTHING about your misery, you’ll just be trapped in it and will need constant care and supervision. You won’t feel any better, just the same but now you’re being babysat. This is not the way. Call an ambulance.

I agree w the top commenter, When he sees it in person , esp since you won’t be standing in front of a pure white background, he will not be like “ew, is that eggshell?” haha. I’m sure he’ll feel like an idiot for saying that and will absolutely think you look amazing

norrainnorsun

RemindMe! 1 week

norrainnorsun

I fully thought that was a roach , SHOCKED when I opened the comments

norrainnorsun

Not a book but this YouTube video helped me through a similar situation and I think about it often when others are struggling. She sees it in a bit of a new age spiritual way but even if that’s not your thing I think the message is solid

norrainnorsun

Help is boring but it could make you feel less terrible. And if you feel less terrible then you’ll be glad you got help. Even tho you can’t see it happening, you can logically know that you might feel better with some help, isn’t that worth a try?

norrainnorsun

This happens to me too!!! A medium hard run will almost guarantee that I won’t sleep thst night, feels like it just pumps cortisol through my body and then it gets stuck there.

The only times I’ve still been able to sleep is when I’m taking some kind of adaptogenic herb that lowers cortisol. I like rhodiola rosea but ashwaganda , holy basil, plenty others too. But too much of those and I get too sleepy and feel like I don’t have enough cortisol. So it’s a hard balance.

But yeah this is so me, I think our nervous systems just be goin way too hard all the time

Etsy straight up sucks to now. Im sure there’s good stuff but it’s so impossible to find. I’m only shown total garbage. I buy from small businesses from my Instagram explore feed tho!

norrainnorsun

Can you DM me the topic I promise I won’t rant to you about either side I’m dying to know hahahaha

norrainnorsun

Omg no it looks fab!! The lighting at the alterations appt is trash but i bet they have to have such bright terrible ligjts so they can see what they’re doing. Everything looks terrible in that lighting. You look beautiful in the dress and it really is elegant and classy!!!

norrainnorsun

Ngl this is like unsolicited advice I guess but have you ever done shrooms? I would recommend. Makes life seem super worth living and makes it seem more important to just do things instead of wasting your precious time and energy worrying about the opinions of others. Not to sound toxic positive tho, I totally get this and have my fair share of weird anxieties, but this is an epiphany I really took to heart on shrooms and it sticks with me now. When I catch myself overly worried I can fat back there. You deserve to live a full and happy life!! You’re probably so cool and angelic. I hope things improve and sorry this happened

norrainnorsun

LOL too real!!

norrainnorsun

This is insane, he sounds like one of those secretly evil guys that is living a double life or something. Truly run I’m shocked anykne would treat their partner like this. Even if he wasn’t waking you up on purpose and his only offense was being mean as shjt to you when you vented to him about how stressed you are that’s still plenty reason to leave him. Your partner should be the person who supports you most, who makes you feel safest and most comfortable, who loves you throufh everything and is there for you as much as they can. Which should be like at least 90% of the time. This man is mean as fuck to you over a very real issue you’re having.

AND HE IS LITERALLY TORTURING YOU!! please leave him. Whatever good he brings to the table CANNOT outweigh how terrible this is. And, a normal human having a “bad day” would STILL NEVER DO THIS!!! At the WORST a normal person might be pushed to their very limit and do this like one time im a fit of rage after months of buildup. but this guy does it EVERY DAY and then is mean to you for feeling the effects of it. He WANTS you to be miserable. He is abusive, narcissistic, and a truly terrible person. Whatever nice shit he says to your face or whatever redeeming qualities he has are NOT WORTH IT!! And he’s 100% lying about other shit too.

Please please please leave him. Drop your venmo and I’ll even send a little money to help if money is an issue. No one should have to live like this.

Seems like some structure would really benefit you. I find it nearly impossible to get ANYTHING done without someone actively asking for work daily. Could you maybe talk to your dad about going to his office or something to do the work and set smaller deadlines with him? Then you can deliver it in manageable chunks. Seems like he’s genuinely invested in helping you and this would benefit him.

You’re not a sack of shit or anything. You clearly know how to work hard and are smart. You literally were a lawyer for 2 years and went to law school. That shit is hard and you had to study your ass off and work long hours at the job. So you’re not worthless or hopeless. It’s just hard to get stuff done alone sometimes.

I’ve just accepted that I’m not much of a self starter and I absolutely need people who will quickly judge me for me to get stuff done. It doesn’t mean I’m a piece of shit or lazy, I just like don’t care that much about my software engineering job. I care more about my coworkers thinking I’m unreliable than getting that bullshit done lol.

But yeah once you get out of this shame spiral and get some satisfaction of doing something and feel competent and capable you’ll snap right out of this funk. Feeling competent and good at something is very important for your mental health. You got this!! You can totally fix this, it’s possible. You just have to ask for help and try different approaches and get in there to tackle this problem. Bc clearly what you’re doing doesn’t work for you. Which is fine. Just time for a different attack.

Just to reiterate. YOU GOT THIS!!! You’ll figure it out. Life is long. You’re supposed to learn lessons and do suit like this. And this is the best time in your life to have tried this. Plus. Quitting your job is SCARY. Genuinely brave if you to do that. I’m impressed. Even if it didn’t pan out it’s still hard Af to do that

1 or 2!!! If 3 then the belt is placed way too high imo, makes your torso look short and super straight, you have such a beautiful figure in the first 2!!

I gasped at dress E

norrainnorsun

Before reading the comments and with little knowledge of fashion or wedding gowns I thought the second was more expensive. They’re both so beautiful
