New to my journey. Want to support cosmetic brands that don’t use plastic and take care of my skin. Any brands that don’t use plastic would be great. There are some local shops and farmer’s markets near me for skin care but willing to go international.
I’m convinced on some forums about health, wellness, and illness the posters are bots or not real.
I won’t elaborate too much but I really think these posters are trying to keep people in fear. For what purpose? It’s anyone’s guess but fear controls society.
Getting BRCA tested today…32F. Regardless of results, I already had intraductal papillomas removed. I get yearly mammograms. Been all clear so far!
Every time I have a pain in my breast, I spiral. I am so scared of breast cancer. I watched my grandmother go through treatment and go on to live ten more years. It wasn’t traumatizing to see her go through treatment. It was caught early, it seemed to be really annoying to go through all that treatment more than anything.
My breasts are fibrocycstic and every time I drink caffeine they cause so much pain. So I had to stop/ I want to drink coffee again like I did before puberty ended for me. Sorry for the complaints.
I don’t want to go through this anxiety forever. I don’t want yearly mammos and possible biopsy anxiety.
I would just rather get fake breasts. I don’t need them. They’re so annoying and I hate them.
I live in the US, but willing to go overseas if needed.
Are there any promising breakthroughs with AI tech and cancer? Will we be seeing better early detection in the next 10 years? More treatments?
This is what AI should be for, IMO.
Where I work is short staffed.
I have been doing the work of five people. I feel like I’m getting stabbed in my right ribs.
My mom doesn’t use reddit but is following the case.
Happy Heavenly birthday, dear one. I hope up there you get to be a teenage girl forever with only positivity around you. 🕊️
I just had a mammo back in Jan, all good.
I do drink a lot of caffeine, wonder if that is an issue.
I’m 32.
I was told I have fibrocystic breasts and to be careful.
Should I go to a specialist? Any advice????
Honestly, if I was a Kentuckian and voted for him, I’d be upset that he’s shown zero proof of life for what? 75 days now? He has ONE JOB and can’t do it! My pet cat could do a better job than Mitch! We need to hold our elected officials to higher standards or this country will crumble. People rely on senators, ideally, to get laws passed and help them with issues they may be facing. Mitch is nowhere to be found and his handlers don’t care about you. Mitch only ever cared about himself and maybe Elaine a little bit.
How long until someone squeals on Mitch or people revolt?
thanks
The two countries have distinct cultures and plenty of regional differences. Which had me thinking, what’s life like on the border between these two countries? Are there any cities of interest?
They could use his pay for the American people who are actually alive and living in this economy.
Has the rise of cyber school and failing literacy rates really kept Americans this uninformed? Do the elites want that????
I noticed a trend with a bunch of people I know who went to cyber school and are now 30, they would think Mitch McConnell is a singer of a metal band. Cyber school associated with the public schools are different. I really think there is a plot to keep Americans unaware starting by isolating the youth at home in cyber school.
I’m not 100% against cyber school but you can’t stay home all day and sit behind a Chromebook and become a well-rounded adult. I have taken cyber college classes myself at home but was an adult. I also went to the gym and Panera once a day to make sure I had human contact.
So many homeschool and cyber school kids get zero dating, sex ed…..It’s honestly sad :( I’m not here to make fun of anybody. I found out that some of the cyber schools don’t include sex ed in the curriculum. Some kids are totally isolated and then become adults and have no idea how to date. This is why we need Planned Parenthood and Community Health Centers. We need more sex ed resources and spaces for teens to learn. Away from parents who might want to restrict because they need life skills.
I know people who were cyber-schooled, all due to bullying. They became isolated for years at home. Didn’t make new friends. Didn’t join school activities. Didn’t join sports. Some had jobs for a bit delivering newspapers or something or walking dogs.
They all needed services like speech, OT, social skills…..that the school district provided even to cyber school but their parents were so worried about them seeing their bullies again. So they never got that. There is obvious neurodivergence. Now, some are borderline unemployable. It’s a shame because some have bachelor’s degrees but got them in liberal arts. What are you gonna do with an English degree in 2026?
I was severely bullied. I was the shortest kid and looked like a third grader in 6th grade due to a growth disorder my parents refused to treat. “We don’t want to pump you with hormones”. You can imagine what that was like in the 2000s. I also learned social skills and how to avoid people like that and who real friends are. I had activities during school. I got myself woken up, made my own breakfast, walked to school at age 9 rather than depend on Mommy. If I had left school due to my bullies, I would have been depending on Mommy.
And probably still having Mommy make my food today, except she doesn’t like to cook. I know people like this. Their Mommy drives them around. What would they do if something happened to their mom?
My parents told me leaving school due to bullies wasn’t going to be an option because homeschool and cyberschool would mean losing my independence. I know what they meant now.
I asked this yesterday but this is a disturbing pattern I’m noticing.
Most Muslims I know are pretty progressive. I went to school with Muslim friends and they were the same as everyone else. Only a small minority I’ve met are extreme and act like jerks. Want everyone to accomodate them and know their beliefs. Everything is a sin and there is no fun. If you want to live like that, fine. What’s strange is the woke left defends them. The blatant oppression of women. That you need to accommodate them. I’m not a mind reader. I’m not changing my business to suit anybody. If you do not like it or think it is a sin then go elsewhere. Simple…..I don’t think God thinks I am a sinner. Oh, and the woke left defends the extreme Muslims and thinks I am the one in the wrong. My Muslim friends agree with me. How come it’s only extreme Muslims doing this? Not the Orthodox Jewish? The strict Sikhs? Most Amish are even chill imo.
These woke leftists are transgender and then support niquabis which is wild to me. I think if you choose to wear a niquab, and only as a choice, fine but no one should be forced. They do not realize most women who wear them would judge them and not be their friend as they are trans….Unfortunately.
If they want to be around extreme Muslims fine but you will feel nonstop judged and on eggshells. There are a lot of harmful stereotypes about Muslims sadly, for me I just feel anything I say is a sin these people avoid everything but breathing air and halal chicken.
I have noticed a pattern in my life, there are not very bright individuals who show narcissistic and manipulative tendencies. They are able to be just socially successful enough to gaslight and harm people but have zero friends.
I hope this doesn’t break any rules nor sound mean. I literally see this in an Appalachia area that had bad education, and many of the residents I really think a bunch of these folks were born with fetal alcohol. Not trying to sound mean. If you grew up where I did….You would get it. So they don’t learn how to be manipulative in psychology class. A bunch of these folks drop out in 10th grade. I’m not trying to be mean.
Stephen Miller is definitely not straight but Trump keeps him around.
Obviously not everyone in DC is straight, cis, and these people know it. No one in Congress has burst in flames from working with Sarah McBride or sharing a bathroom with her. So they fundamentally know it’s fine to be lgbtq. But in ruby red areas they have to keep their GOP voter base believing harmful things to the lgbtq community to get elected. The whole trans in sports thing is dumb as heck. Use common sense about it. If you had a male puberty and a ton of muscle play on a mens’ team. If you had a female puberty and a female muscle mass, play on a female team. But the MAGA needs an issue to distract and they don’t want their voter base to think too critically. I heard rumors Senator Hawley was gay in his 20s and then came back to the US and is straight again to run for office, lol!
Frankly, it was twenty years ago and the place seems very nice.
It was never about dead people voting.
