Is there a place to just scream?

This could either be a room I rent or could do with a group of people but are there screaming groups in nyc?

I need to scream once every week just to get it all out. Any groups in nyc that do this? I could create a group too but finding an enclosed space is the challenge. ​

Exertion headaches after spiro?

Firstly I'd be very sad if I have to give up spiro. I hate minoxidil and pills for darker skinned women is not an option when it also causes body hair growth. Spiro is easy.

But I've noticed increasingly exertion headaches happen when I exercise or do any strenous physical activity. I drink lots and lots of water so that's not an issue. What made your exertion headaches go away?

Any specific brands of electrolyte helped? I'm going back go my derm to ask but also wanted to check here.

Is this painting too childish?

Is this painting childish? I've had a niggling thought recently that it might be.

I bought this ballerina painting 5 years ago and don't want to get rid of it..no idea what I'd put in its place. 38f and I'm just wondering of I've aged out of this.

I'd like some edgy art that also feels personal. No clue what I'd get in its place. I'm just feeling like my room is way too girlish rn and that's a part of my vibe but not my whole vibe. ​

Not doing walks in the park anymore for a first date.

I (38f) have always liked first date walk in the parks. I've now had a change of heart about them.

As much as I like walking and talking I really want a first date to be a sit down and looking at each other type of situation.

It doesn't have to be dinner but a drink or a beverage will suffice. I want to look into my date's eyes, see how they react to things and they need to be able to do that for me.

This has been a recent realization and I'm wondering if others feel the same way.

The only issue is I don't like to drink so I need to make sure to be intentional around that or just suck it up. Not sure about this.

What does everyone think?

What do I do when sitting in awareness feels extremely uncomfortable?

As the title says l, do I push through? It feels very uncomfortable when I sit In awareness.

My anxiety bubbles to the surface. I feel rudderless. That's the best way I know how to describe it. Adrift at sea on a lone plank of wood.

It was very very uncomfortable. I've been meditating for a very long time and tried all kinds of techniques and today I just decided to sit in silence and be aware.

It was very uncomfortable. 2 questions

  1. Do i push through?

  2. Why does this happen? Or what does it mean when this happens?

Has anyone ever experienced thinning periods after 35 and they're not perimenopausal?

38(f) and when I turned 36 I experienced thinning periods. I used to get a 4 day or 3 day flow and now it's one.

I also developed telegun effleveum when I turned 38. (definitely spelling that incorrectly)​

I went to an endocrinologist, a dermatologist, a gyno and the only thing that's off is my ferritin (very low) and vitamin d.

Everything else is fine. Im not peri menopausal, my thyroid is fine, just not sure what the heck is going on.

Not seeking medical advice. Just wondering if other women have experienced this? Because this has been a very frustrating experience. ​

Women in queens!

I (38f) am looking for women in Queens between the ages of 35 to 45 to hang out with.

I don't drink so would really love to create a friend group for social activities that don't involve alcohol. Don't mind the occasional drink but some things I've been interested in doing is pottery, book fairs, playing badminton, neighborhood walks, exploring dessert places or just hanging out and talking about life and working out.

Ideally would prefer single women and those who live in queens and in the age range I mentioned so there's some life overlap

Would anyone be down for something like this?

update 1: I need to figure out a way to add everyone to reddit chat. will get to it this evening!

If that isn't your cup of tea honestly would love someone to just show me how to do a proper RDL. My form isn't great and I could just use some in person corrections.

Would love to keep the age range around 33 to 43 so there's more life overlap!
