I was not a fan of the nerve blocks either. They made me have five of them before they gave up because they wanted to make sure they tried everything before implanting a neurostimulator. I have a neurostimulator now and it's okay when it works, but now I have a defective lead and a migrating lead, so it doesn't…

I'm so glad the eyeball injections are helping your mom! I had no idea! I guess if I really had to do it, I could, but I hope I never have to. Of course, if you told me five years ago I would be getting 5-inch needles in my spine for sympathetic nerve blocks while I was awake, I never would have thought I could…

Oh, the stitches part sounds horrible! I'm glad you got to be out for the needle part. Needles do not belong in eyes.

You've had to have a needle in your eye for medical reasons? Ouch! I'm sorry. That sounds absolutely horrible. I felt like I could take anything when it came to needles after I had a bunch of five-inch needles in my spine for sympathetic nerve blocks, but I just don't think I could handle a needle in the eyeball!

It seems to be a similar color to OCC's Stalker, which I already have. Everyone raves about it, though, so it must be good. It's definitely a gorgeous color! And I love how blue-based reds can make my teeth look a little whiter!

I hear good things about Ruby Woo, but I'm never tried it myself. I will put it on my list of things to try (such a long, long list, but I'll get through it someday! Maybe? I hope).

OCC lip tar is the best stuff ever. I am 32 and never wore lipstick because it would just not stay on me. I got some OCC lip tar in a beauty subscription box and I fell in love. I have about twenty colors now. It stays on forever and they have some very gorgeous, opaque colors with high pay out. If you like…

OCC is the only lipstick I can get to stay on!

I am 32 and just recently discovered lipstick myself! I never found lipstick that would actually stay on me, so I just gave up on it in my teens. I got some OCC lip tar in a beauty subscription box in September and I've been in love with it ever since. I probably have twenty different colors of it now! I really…

Have you tried a tea tree oil face wash? That helped me. I got a small bottle of it at Ulta for $4 and it has lasted me a while. It is by the Body Shop. Good luck!

OCC's Stalker is a gorgeous matte blue-based red. You will love it, I promise! I recommend a primer and lip liner with it (definitely lip liner — I use clear, but red would be fine, too). I also love Vintage if you love red. It's a burgundy-ish color, not so blue-based, but very pretty.

I need to get my confidence back so I can wear swimsuits again! I'm only 32, but I have gained quite a bit of weight due to a chronic pain disorder that makes doing anything on my feet very difficult. My doctors have suggested swimming as a way to get the exercise I need, but I can't bring myself to get into a…

Sounds like a plan! Have you found the CRPS group on Facebook? It is quite helpful. So many times, someone will post something and I will think, "I thought I was the only one who felt that way!!!!" It's nice. The full name of it is just CRPS and it says "closed group," but if you ask to join, they will accept you…

If you are in upstate NY, I can recommend a good pain doctor. I love mine.

I have CRPS in my right foot. Sorry you are dealing with it, too. I've never seen anyone else on Jezebel with it, so I was excited to see someone else on here, if that makes sense. CRPS is a special sort of hell. I also have a great pain management doctor who doesn't give me any problems.

It is strange that you say that. I was coming here to post that my little brother had one and loved it. Then, for some reason, our babysitter thought showing a 5-year-old and 7-year-old Child's Play was a great idea. It didn't bother me, but it really scared my little brother. He ripped the jaw off of his Teddy…

So, there was this one guy who was a seasonal worker on the island I lived on. We had sex once and he was pretty good. Small dick, but he knew how to use it, so that was okay. Anyway, we ended up having sex a lot after that. Unfortunately, he had a serious body odor problem. He smelled disgusting! Of course, he…

I was about to ask how they handled her, then saw you beat me to it.

We had two dogs that were a brother and sister when I was 7 or so. My parents were a little late getting the brother neutered and then the sister went into heat (she had a bleeding disorder, so she could not be spayed, unfortunately). Of course, the two dogs started going at it in the middle of the living room. I…

My mom told me how gross and bad masturbation was, too, and I started it around 10 or so, so that sucked. What sucked even more is that around that time, my grandmother began having some serious mental health issues and started accusing every adult male in our lives, besides our fathers, of molesting me, my brother,…
