CBD oil helped me. I get really good sleep now and find myself not spiraling in negative thoughts. I got off taking prescriptions and just do CBD now.

figure out why?

Try journaling, guided meditation, therapy, or talking out your feelings with a friend! Try to spill your thoughts out so they aren’t just sitting in your brain tangled up like an old pair of wired headphones

Exercise, CBD oil, cutting out caffeine + alcohol, getting enough sleep, meditation, being around ppl who love you all works for me and I’m better for it

I feel you, never been an anxious person before the last few months. My anxiety was linked to a person.

Talk to your doctor. SSRIs have helped me. Also exercise, reducing caffeine, etc as others have said.

CBD

I buy the kind that is lab tested for no THC. Friend of mine just had a drug screen done for work and uses the same brand and passed the test. They test for THC not CBD

Advice and/or consolation anyone? My wife and I (both above average health 30year olds) were trying for 11 months before getting pregnant and then had a week 5 early miscarriage a few months back. If the stress and surprise of just how difficult it apparently is to get pregnant wasn’t enough, the miscarriage put us over. We got back to it and have been trying for the last 2 months again, still no luck. We’re freaking out… all we want is a family. Any similar stories? Advice? 😢

Hi there. I previously had a beautiful baby girl through IVF and emergency c-section. Now I'm in the process of completing my pre-requisites before another FET. I had my hydrosonogram, trial embryo transfer, and an overall check of my uterus. Due to my muscle thickness, they're recommending with my next pregnancy to have another c-section. I tried Googling but can't find any info. Anyone been through this before and know what they're referring to? I just like to be as informed as I can.

I’m interested in pursuing cosmetic dermatology (possible Botox and laser treatment) for the first time. I’ve done a ton of research and the derm I’m most interested in going to charges a $150 consult fee but does NOT apply that cost to any treatments you get, whereas from my research it seems like derms in my city usually do apply the consult fee to the treatments. Would you pass on her due to that additional cost, or consider it worth it to see the derm you want to see?
