Eric Moore32 said:I don't really get this whole question about hearing things outside of music: we hear sounds that split into tones and noise non-musical sounds are just noise—which people with perfect pitch probably experience just like any other noise (noise is just noise, nothing special, so why would it be heightened?)
Look, I've got perfect pitch, but honestly, I don't hear much clearly until I strike something. You know what I mean? Even weirder—I’ll whack an umbrella against a pole and go, "That's a C2!" Noise is still noise, sure, but it resonates at certain frequencies, so I can pin it down within a specific tonal range. A bit morbid, maybe, but hey—it is what it is. And man, people who struggle with pitch? That gives me such a headache... it's pure torture.
Sarah Moore86 said:I get all that—but one thing just doesn't click for me. When someone with perfect pitch hears a chord, do they actually hear every single individual note within it? And do they see them as colors? (I had a dream about that once.) Like, how does that work—is the whole song washed in one primary color? I remember reading that Hendrix said he basically built his songs based on "color" when he was asked about his songwriting structure. How does his hearing manifest outside of the music? Is it just... amplified or something?
I hear all of them—though I can't speak for other people with perfect pitch.
brighttinker36 said:Can someone please tell me what they think is going on here? I feel super awkward even bringing this up—and I'm not sure if there's already a thread about this, though I doubt it. The outside area down there (this is so embarrassing...😢 ) has gotten really swollen. There's this one specific lump that feels like a painful little sac when you touch it. I have no idea what it is... I'm honestly terrified it might be cancer.😢 Why do I don't think it's just hemorrhoids? Well, I'm only 18 and there hasn't been any blood in my stool. The only thing I know for sure is that I spend a ton of time sitting down. Anyway, if anyone can help me out, please. Thanks 😢
I’ve been there and seen it firsthand. Their products are actually solid—no doubt about that—but man, you really have to shell out some serious cash if you want to go all in. Just to be clear, most of what they sell is aimed at people who don't know any better—folks who just memorize some buzzwords and think they understand scalp health because they looked at a few slides during a seminar. If you aren't dealing with major issues, honestly, it feels like a total waste of money. That said, if you struggle with a sensitive scalp, I’d say their shampoo is worth picking up—it usually runs around $20. They’ve also started pushing these vitamin supplements lately, but they are ridiculously overpriced. Honestly? They aren't even better than a standard bottle of Centrum or anything you'd grab at a drugstore, so why throw money away on the same crap?
Steven Lee68 said:The manufacturer is Focus. (I’ll admit, it was a bit unprofessional of me not to mention the brand right away) Like I said—I’ve been listening to folks who have been in this industry for decades. They finished their degrees thirty years ago, and for them, medical progress and material science basically hit a plateau back then. This user probably works in the field, sure, but the companies he’s representing aren't playing by those old-school rules—so anyone jumping on the latest tech is basically playing kamikaze. The box says "30 Days". I use them longer than that at my own risk, and believe me, I know exactly what I'm doing.
Yeah, but once your vision goes south, it's already too late.
So, tell me—how much time actually passed between when you caught that sore throat and the day you ended up with kidney issues? And are you absolutely certain it’s pyelonephritis we're talking about, rather than glomerulonephritis?
Maybe you should just cover your ears and leave her alone. Seriously—if you don't have any actual, helpful advice to offer, then it’s probably best if you just head out from this thread!
placidorca16 said:then they ask for something besides just local (like a vaginal injection) and an IV dose of something like Valium to calm down. It’s not "total" anesthesia, but it’s basically the same thing.
That is absolutely not the same thing. With diazepam, you just drift off—that’s hypnosis, plain and simple. Real anesthesia involves losing your reflexes, being completely pain-free, losing all sensation, amnesia... it's way, way more complex than just hitting someone with a dose of diazepam. That stuff just calms you down and puts you to sleep, but you aren't actually under anesthesia.....
silverpuma10 is asking for general anesthesia! Look, yeah—you might end up paying a few hundred dollars more—but honestly? It’s way better to just sleep through the whole thing rather than having to deal with the sensation or watching it happen. Good luck!🙂
ruggedpanther64 said:Go see a doctor and see what they suggest—but honestly? My advice is don't let it go... my own sister had her baby when she was only 16 back in the 90s. It was tough at first—mostly just worrying about what people would think—but trust me, nothing compares to having a child (a whole new life). Life is priceless. My niece is 16 today. She’s only a few years younger than me, actually... we get along great. And my sister? She moved on with her life perfectly fine—got married, everything is awesome.
And hey, nobody is stopping you from having kids whenever you want!🙄
Either grab some Avene Diacenal or just brew yourself some marshmallow root tea—let it cool down completely and use that as a toner. Then, follow up by applying a dexamethasone-neomycin cream (but seriously, don't use that stuff for more than 3 or 4 days).
Olivia Ruiz said:My daughter was throwing up so much this morning—I just couldn't get her to keep any antibiotics down. I gave her some chamomile tea instead and she’s finally sleeping now.
How should I handle the rest of the doses? She was supposed to take them at 9 AM and 9 PM. Should I just wait until the usual 9 PM slot, or should I try giving it to her earlier? 😕
Just give it to her at 9 PM. Don't mess around with the timing—shifting the schedule like that can throw off how the medicine actually works in her system.
