I've been diagnosed with bipolar/depression and am on a really low dose of a medication, and the effect is magical - this black cloud I always used to feel hanging around finally dissipated a little (eg, compulsive/racing thoughts gone, temper less volatile, and my emotional lows are not as deep or frequent). It's a…

I've been told by hairstylists to go for the dyes that are applied in a foam - can't think of specific brands off the top of my head, though.

Ooo! Kimchi fried rice is one of my favorites.

Are you anxious?

My best friend's cat had a respiratory infection with wheezing and sneezing. The cat had to be on antibiotics/drugs of some kind and my friend installed a humidifier to keep it comfortable; it took a couple weeks to get better.

It's a clip! Of course it feels out of context.

Fine, generally! I've never had the burning/frizzing other people seem to have. But I also keep it really short and have a naturally reddish color, so I've never used a ton of it and the "orangey" effect people seem to get kind of works for me.

I remember watching my babysitter apply those, and asking her to show me how to do them. And she was like, no, this is too advanced for you.

I knew a kid who tried to use a permanent marker for eyeliner. Such burning!

I once had this hairstyle, too

This all sounds rad.

Why do people get this haircut? It's a flashing neon sign that no one will ever get along with you. Like red or yellow on poisonous animals.

Haha, I just rec'd a Benefit product in this thread too! They've got a nice filler thing called Gimme Brow in addition to the pencil.

Yo, I did the same thing in the late 90s! There's a big chunk missing above one of my tear ducts, too, and some patchiness throughout. Benefit makes a rad eyebrow thickener/filler thing that works miracles! (Although, TBH, your eyebrows really don't look bad!)

Ah, bobs! My mother and I had matching bobs in the 90s.

You can actually still find it at lots of pharmacies! There's a market.

Yo, say what you want, but I still use Sun-In.

I don't have anything to contribute here, discussion-wise, just wanted to leave a note wishing you the best - what you've been through sounds incredibly difficult.

I was in the hospital last year and given an opiod painkiller for the first and only time in my life. The effects were almost immediate and I felt AWESOME. So warm and fuzzy and happy all over.

You know what's interesting? I went to a pharmacy museum recently (MY LIFE IS INTERESTING) and women have been using opioids/opiates at disproportionately higher rates than men since at least the early 1900s.
