Fast heart beat after eating big meals
Anyone else feel exhausted and experience a very rapid heart beat after eating big meals? I assume it’s cause my metabolism is working much faster. 💁🏼♀️

Medications for hyperthyroidism
The medications for hyperthyroidism scare me. Methimazole can cause deformities to babies while pregnant. PTU can potentially destroy and/or cause major issues with your liver. There’s no good option?? unless you plan to not conceive will on methimazole. Ugh. Not to mention they taste AWFUL. like pure chemical, PTU does at least.

Increase resting heart rate
Should I be concerned? My resting heart rate was increase dramatically. The change started once I started working full time (I’m a student in university), I work in childcare where I am on my feet constantly. This also involves being outside a lot in the heat, which I find I can’t tolerate that well. This job is also very stressful, there are many days where I wanted to break down and cry. A lot of unrealistic expectations and work. I am also honestly over the job as well, many things about it frustrate me. I workout as well, probably in the gym 3-4 times a week but with working full time I haven’t been working out much, but the amount I’m walking around and on my feet you’d think my job would balance that out?. I also don’t know if it’s because I’m so aware of it lately and making my self anxious. I have days where my heart beat feels so high & I feel so out of breath that I have to sit down. Days where I’m dizzy and fatigued and lightheaded etc. it comes and goes. But my rapid heart beat has been consistent. I do plan on going to the doctor, but I’m afraid I’ll just be disregarded. Ive also had a heart monitor on before due to shortness of breath and heart palpitations. Nothing was found, blood work always seems to come back fine. I’ve thought maybe POTS or dysautonomia. I am diagnosed adhd as well. A lot of brain fog as well. Maybe it’s my job? I haven’t had that many stressors besides my mom having a stroke about 2 months ago.
I also have been feeling my heartbeat as well lately and can see my pulse in my vision. I feel like I’m breathing heavier too. I want real advice not anything you just are gonna pull outta your a** or if anyone else has experienced this and what they did/do.

Am I attractive? Confused and need advice.
I need some advice/thoughts. Lately I have been obsessing over my facial features and noticing every flaw, I use to believe that I was pretty decent looking and never noticed these features & thought other people didn’t either but now it’s all I can notice and what I think other people notice. I’d say some features I have are not conventionally attractive such as a longer face with a longer chin that sticks out a bit when I smile. I feel like my side profile is awful. I also have a bigger nose, not huge but not small and cute. When I don’t have my hair done and all my makeup done which is most of the time unless I’m going out I feel disgusted in my self, this is just been recently though. For some other context I am petite, skinny, small boobs, long hair, shorter (5’3) & I have a good butt. I workout as well so I look healthy & like I take care of my self. I’m just confused cause I get attention whenever I go to the bar or out (but it’s dark &ppl are drunk), always every time that I go someone is hitting on me & women will approach and compliment me to. I get looked at by guys at the gym to that’ll eventually try to start conversation, follow me on social media, make eye contact with me, look at me etc. although sometimes I wonder if they are looking at me cause they think I look weird? I don’t know do men stare/constantly look at you if you look weird?.. these men that do this as well are not ugly either & tbh ugly men don’t even try to approach or look at me which makes me think it’s cause they think I look to good for them. I am also out going, will smile at everyone & am mostly friendly. People tell me I give off approachable vibes. So I’m just confused if I’m actually pretty or if I just attract people because of my personality & body..? (sorry not gonna provide pic)
