▲ 7 r/TMJ

Visiting an Orafacial specialist after having suffered with TMJ for over 5yrs.

I've been dealing with the following issues and this is my last shot at fixing it before I give up on everything entirely ✌️

20F, struggling with TMJ for half a decade now. It initially started off as facial asymmetry and developed into clicking noises every time I opened my mouth. It got to a point where I couldn't open it past a limit, it just got stuck. Visited a local dentist and they suggested that I remove both my molars because according to them my jaw bone was hitting them (?) made no sense but my mum forced me into it because getting a second opinion is not an option in my household.

It sort of helped. I can open my mouth without being restricted entirely but for losing both of my teeth I expected better results. I still experience clicking and almost a sort of bones grinding against each other sensation on the left side of my jaw every time I open it.

Apart from this, my face is being pulled to a side literally. It's been an ongoing thing but now it's extremely noticable. I also can't really use both sides of my face. Whenever I talk my lips look disoriented and my voice isn't as clear as it should be and I think TMJ is the culprit.

I also have an overbite which I suppose caused the whole issue to begin with.

My face looks underdeveloped. Especially the lower parts of it. I can't use the entire facial and neck muscles group on one side well.

I'm worried. I'm down to get to surgery too atp but I just want to get this fixed.

Idk I'd like to hear some thoughts

Kept going back to the same person out of loneliness

I swore I'd never go back to someone who doesn't want me aana thirumba thirumba poi pesuren

Two years ago someone did this to me. Pudikala nu solliyum thirumba thirumba vandhu pesunanga and I hated it sm that I promised myself that I'll never become someone who does that.

Look at how the tables have turned. Guess you really do become what you hate.

I feel so disgusted with myself rn

Should I confront him or just let it go

Soooo I have this friend from school who reached out to me recently after a misunderstanding that kept us in no contact for a year. I let that go and pretty much forgot about his existence and then he called me out of nowhere, explained how he missed the friendship and yk just wanted to catch up apdi ipdi nu solitu irundhan. I was actually really mad at him because the last time we talked he just left after we got into a misunderstanding and ghosted me every time I tried to talk.

aana I thought things are different now nu, so we were talking again...pesurapo la vibes dha.. we really do get along well (atleast from my pov) and he was always updating me on wtv is happening in his life, be it career, relationships and everything else.

We even met and hung out after like 2 years because we're in diff cities for clg. Adhuku aprm uh kooda things were fine only... for a lil while atleast.

Now he's straight up ghosting me again lol 😭 and it pmo sm but thirumba poi ketu asinga pada vena nu paakuren but it's also bothersome...and I feel stupid asf because meet panapaiyum seri and whenever he wanted money na kuduthen and nethu I was in a dire need of money and konjam kuduka soli ketapo he straight up said " yenta eduvum ilaiyae" which isn't the issue aana the fact that he didn't even bother to call me back after I tried to call a few times. All I got was a text saying he got nothin.

And now smb told me he's talking with his ex again. Whenever he talked about it...he pretty much swore he won't go back lol but ig he changed his mind. THAT'S none of my business ik but I deserve a text back atleast?? if u can't talk to me no more, u should atleast lmk?? Friendship ah madichu oru closure aachu kudukanum la

I just feel used tbh idk how to explain it better and no I don't have feelings for him so I don't want anyone suggesting that... it's just that I feel bad about a person I truly considered as one of my close ones to not even gaf Abt me lol
