Period talk: Questions and advice in Women's Health ·
It’s only a day longer than your usual cycle, so I wouldn't sweat it too much. Plus, plenty of women deal with that weird tension or breast tenderness right before their period hits..
Personally, mine never hurt while they were growing. Honestly, if you're feeling actual pain while they're increasing in size, it usually means the growth is happening way too fast and you'll end up with stretch marks. If you aren't seeing those, then they aren't really "growing" in that sense—it's just standard hormonal tension.

Rebecca Barrett52 said:Check out Mayo Clinic. They have this great setup where you can grab one of their membership cards—like a basic one for $333—and it covers your whole annual physical. Then, you can use whatever credit is left over for stuff that isn't included, like an eye exam or something.
If you've got the card, they even knock 10% off other exams. Plus, a nurse basically escorts you through the whole process, so you can get everything knocked out in a single afternoon.

It’s pretty much the same deal at Sun, though I think their discounts might be slightly better, if not identical... 🤷
Stress... heart issues? :( in Health ·
A panic attack isn't just some one-off moment, either. Honestly, I’m way too wiped out right now to really get into it, but I just wanted to say that even if you feel like you've moved past them, the whole thing can still linger in the back of your mind and trigger stuff—like breathing issues or whatever.
Also, it’s probably worth digging into what actually sets them off. They don't just pop up out of nowhere, and they aren't always the same experience. Sometimes you get hit with the full works, and other times, like I mentioned, it’s just one or two weird symptoms...

I need to run a few tests soon, so I wanted to get your take on local clinics and what kind of damage I'm looking at for prices:
- a gastroscopy
- a breath test
- an eye exam
- a gynecological checkup

Honestly, I'm torn on whether I should just bundle everything at one clinic or shop around. I've been looking into Poliderm Clinic, but if you guys have any other leads, let me know. 🙂
Aztec, any thoughts? in Feedback & Suggestions ·
Emily Kim67 said:I didn't miss them, I just don't get how you think your plan would actually work, unless we just ban everyone from neighboring countries from coming in.
How, though? How exactly are you planning to single out the people you're talking about?

Mind control, obviously. What else? 🤣

And what’s next, banning Americans? Like, why would I care what someone from Canada thinks about how we live here? Let's just stick to arguing about our own messy country instead.🧐
Or maybe a Buddhist.
Because honestly, why would I care about Buddha when I've got my Jesus? 🙂

🙄

We might as well just call this an American Reddit specifically for Americans. And only Catholics. Non-smokers and non-drinkers too. Everyone else can beat it—how do you even dare click this link? 🙂

Hey, did you maybe miss a notification that tried to DM you, but your inbox is totally maxed out?
Tattoo removal advice? in Health ·
Anonymous said:I ran into some totally wrong advice earlier 😁 ..first off, why on earth would anyone say you can't wash a new tattoo? You actually *should* be rinsing it with lukewarm water every single time before you apply your Bepanthen ointment.. and the plastic wrap is strictly for when you're heading home right after your session; otherwise, you shouldn't be covering the tattoo with any bandages, gauze, or tape. It's better to just stick to cotton T-shirts... As for the process itself, getting tattooed isn't even that bad (I once got one on my wrist), it just stings a little, nothing crazy, though it does feel a bit itchy later on.

The wrap is there so nothing irritates skin that's already super sensitive. Gauze is a bad call because it sticks to everything, and ripping it off could mess up your skin all over again. For some people, that means complications, for others, it just drags out the healing process, and for a few, nothing happens at all.

But yeah, it really comes down to the artist. Everyone has their own "philosophy" about it.🙂
Where did my thread in Religion go? in Feedback & Suggestions ·
alright..
I figured I’d just start a thread here because last time I tried posting on the main board, I sat around waiting four days for a mod to even look at me. By the time they finally replied, I was already two posts deep into the conversation. Apparently, those guys get buried under way too many messages to check things regularly, so someone suggested this was the better way to go.
😕

I didn't bother saving all those links people were throwing my way, so if someone could dig through the digital junk pile long enough to find that YouTube link and bookmark it for me, I'd be super grateful..

I feel like I’m losing my edge somehow 🤷
It used to be instant—I’d spot what I needed right away. Now? It takes me like half an hour just to find anything 😠
Eat up, kid! Come on, get some food in you! in Psychology ·
briskpuma23 said:It looks like you still have your grandparents around, so you can afford to be this reckless. You’ll regret it eventually, but by then, it’ll be too late...

Honestly? I won't miss tracking every single bite or feeling like I need a hit just because I didn't eat when some guru told me to. ☕
Even if I come off as cold about it. 😳
Eat up, kid! Come on, get some food in you! in Psychology ·
Man, this stuff drives me nuts. For me, it’s all about my KID!! (Yeah, right, as if 🍿 would ever care)
The thing is, I deal with some pretty bad stomach issues, so I can't just eat whenever he feels like it, which always ends up starting a massive fight. The latest chapter in this saga? I ended up getting high just to cope (as if 🍿 hasn't seen it all before)

I’m not really feeling this idea... A forum should act like a forum, and Facebook is Facebook... but this is starting to feel way too much like Facebook to me 🤷

Meta archiving in Miscellaneous ·
Karen Cook51 said:What do you mean, an extension of RL? 😕 😂

Take a good look at your friends' profiles... you'll figure it out eventually.

Ethan Thomas10 said:I don't see it as a sequel to RL.
If I want to tell her I miss her, I’ll just shoot her a text. If I have a photo of us, that stays tucked away on my hard drive—it's private, why should everyone else be staring at it? Same goes for saying goodnight; I'll give her a call or slide into her DMs. I honestly don't get the point of posting it all on Meta. Like, does the whole world really need to see that?
Honestly, I think it’s all just deep-seated insecurity. In today's culture, being single—or even just keeping your private life under wraps—is treated like some kind of red flag. Everyone feels this massive pressure to broadcast their "perfect" happiness at full volume, almost like they're terrified that if they don't, someone might jump to conclusions about them being gay or just totally repressed. It's exhausting to watch.

So, what's the verdict? What do you guys think?

What’s normal to you isn't what's normal to them... I've seen people posting statuses just coordinating hookups or gushing about how great the sex was. So, where does that leave us? It's just a million different people with a million different ways of acting weird. 🤷

And who says they’re doing it for anyone else? If they’ve been talking to all their friends like that this whole time, why would it be any different online?! 😕

Personally, I always stick to the idea that it’s my Meta account, MY Meta account, and I have every right to do whatever I want with it... if I want to post a nude photo, that's on me. If you can't handle it, just unfriend me..

Meta has basically become an extension of RL, and people act there exactly how they’d act in person.. You don't seriously think couples kissing on a street corner are doing it just to rub it in someone's face or show off how perfect they are, right? 🙄
Curly hair thread in Feedback & Suggestions ·
I was trying to find this one thread earlier, but I can't track it down now—maybe it got nuked, moved, or I'm just blanking on what it was actually called...
I guess I was just wondering if that kind of thing is even okay in general!

Seriously though, if you're actively arguing in a thread, how do you even make a rational call to lock it just because people aren't vibing with your take? And how do you lock a thread without giving a reason, then keep posting right after? Like, is it locked or what!!

Get what I mean?
And why'd everyone jump down my throat immediately? I was just asking. I thought this part of the forum was supposed to be a bit more laid back ☕

If you were actually trying to talk about something specific, you should've dropped a link. Otherwise, nobody here has any clue what you're even talking about.

I thought! Clearly, I'm the one who's wrong. 🙄

Kevin Williams56 said:A moderator can give a final word, some clarification, or a reason for closing things down after they lock the thread.

I don't see the issue there.

but he didn't provide any of that stuff. It just boiled down to "my way or the highway."🙄
