I'm looking for book recommendations that feature magical girls/have magical girl vibes. Think Sailor Moon! Any suggestions are appreciated!

Hi there. I'm 36f and just got back from the cardiologist. She explained high lipoprotein a (89 mg/dL) and prescribed lipitor (20 mg). I am a very anxious person, especially when it comes to health. I'm just scared as I don't really understand what this means for me. Logically, I know the medication will help lower LDL levels (116) to help prevent heart problems down the road. But that doesn't make the scary feelings go away. Any helpful words would be appreciated.

Edit: added LDL levels

I'm planning a solo vacation and my germaphobia is causing some anxiety, specifically regarding airport bathrooms. I will have a carry on, probably a backpack. Since I can't just leave it somewhere (not that that's a great idea bc someone could steal it), what are some tips on how to keep it relatively away from bathroom germs?

Long story short, yesterday I spent way too long trying to dismantle my toaster to figure out how to make it stop beeping, which would make my dog freak TF out. I was recounting my frustration to my parents. When I walked away, my dad said to my mom "she really needs a boyfriend." I turned back around and said "what is a guy supposed to do huh? What possibly can a guy do for me?" He just laughed and walked away. Fuck him and fuck men. Men (derogatory) have really put me in a sour mood.

I didn't realize until today that I'm more burnt out and detached from everything than I realized. Usually I doomscroll when I get home from work until I go to bed but even that has become boring and unfulfilling (not that it truly is in the first place). I have TMJ so it's common for me to clench my jaw at night but recently I wake up with pain in my jaw, cheeks, and behind my eyes. Thats how I knew things were bad. Then food just all tastes off. Like nothing is satisfying. It's bad enough I struggle to eat but this makes it worse.

Work is even so difficult right now. It doesn't help that this time of year hits everyone with exhaustion (I work in higher ed and summer break starts next week.) I have little to no motivation to work. I keep up with the basics and time sensitive tasks but otherwise all I do is scroll on twitter and play a couple mobile games. I hate myself for that. I want to do something else with my time but idk what to do. I don't know how to feel better or what to do. I really just want someone to take care of me. Hug me while I cry. Tell me everything will be ok. Tell me that I'm not a horrible person.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how I should spend my time or what I should do? I feel like an awful person and employee. I know logically I'm not, but being all in my emotions, I just feel like I'm useless.

I'm currently in a slow period at work and I have a decent bit of free time. I need to be in the office for when things come up but sometimes I'm just sitting there scrolling Twitter and counting down the minutes. What's something that's not twitter that passes the time? What are your favorite work friendly websites or browser games?

Don't get me wrong, I do work while I'm in the office and on the clock. But there are days where it is a struggle to get through. I have no motivation to get things done. There are days where I'm just doing the basics and nothing more. I'm struggling to pass the time. How do you all handle those days?

Eye pain due to night clenching is something new for me. It's a dull, constant ache behind and around my eyes. Plus, my jaw and cheek bones ache. It first popped up last July/August, which I attributed to stress from my job. Once I got through the stressful time, I stopped clenching at night and the eye pain went away. However, it has come back and I don't understand why. I'm burnt out and stressed but nothing like the first time. I'm not really sure how to remedy it. I've taken OTC pain meds but it hasn't helped. Talked to my eye doctor yesterday and they said there's really not much to help but did suggest putting my eye drops in the fridge and using the cold drops (drops are currently cooling down!) I've tried hot compresses and it doesn't always help. I wear my TMJ mouthpiece while I sleep but sometimes I wake up and feel like my clenching will break it. I really don't know what to do and it's really frustrating. Any advice would be appreciated!
