Has anyone tried a supplement that genuinely changed your life? And I don’t mean “I think I sleep a little better” or “maybe I have slightly more energy.” I’m talking about a drastic difference in your physical or mental health, sleep, energy, aging, etc etc. If yes, what supplement was it, what changed, and how long did it take before you noticed the difference? Also curious whether you had a known deficiency beforehand or whether the result completely surprised you.

Hey all- I am in search of a wellness inpatient rehab that focuses on anxiety, panic disorder, OCD, and bad habits. I have overcome substances and am 10 years sober from alcohol &drugs, and nicotine…. But I can’t kick the even worse shit like sugar and bad money management. I’m looking for a wellness center that can help me for like 90 days get through the bad withdrawal and like help me maintain a good nutritional diet, help me learn how to workout and I want a place that focuses on wellness and health, like I wanna see abnormal labs get better, like I want to see a baseline MRI, baseline CT and then take it again after 90 days and see if my symptoms improve. I feel like shit every day and starting to think I may even have cancer, but that’s what my health anxiety and OCD tell me. I need to stop with the catastrophic thoughts all the time. I need to get over my worst fear, which is dying. I’ve tried the GLP1 but it made me throw up and get really sick. I’m traumatized to take it again. I also tried antidepressants and they also gave me horrible side effects. I don’t want medication thrown at me. Like is there a wellness inpatient place that helps with all of this? It’s like I need to get sober from these thoughts and bad habits.

I am in my 30s, single, living alone. Have been struggling trying to manage responsibilities with my properties, my dog, and trying to maintain my mental and physical health. Have a few questions.

1. I have wrinkles/fine lines on my forehead. What effective serums do you use? My skin can't handle retinol.

2. I am losing a lot of hair and not sure what will help it if you have any tips on it. I eat pretty healthy due to health issues. Starting to have more white hair. Will coloring hides them? Sometimes seeing them makes me feel old and unhappy.

3. Any supplements I should take? I looked into collagen powder and curious if those work for skin.

4. 3 years ago, I felt tiny bump on my breast so I went to the doctors and got mammogram and ultrasound. They said it most likely a cyst that goes away on its own. If it hurts, then I have an option to get surgery to extract it. It did went away on its own. I never had kids before so I think stress might had triggered it. The mammogram was the most painful thing I ever went through. Is it supposed to be so painful, or the tech is just not experienced? It feels like someone is snapping my bones in half. I have a small cup and also have scoliosis. After that, I was literally crying in tears. I was really traumatized. I don't look forward to when I have to get mammograms done in the near future.

Fast forward to now, my mom recently told me she might have breast cancer and that she might need to get surgery. Can I inherit it from her? She is someone who doesn't take care of her body at all.

5. I know we all will get saggy skin as we age but is there any products to use to lessen that where I can start using? I use sunscreens daily and protect myself from sun when I can. I haven't gone to the beach or pool for many years. I am consistent with working out and building muscles.

6. Any tips to prepare myself when menopause might arrive? What age will I get it?

7. My muscle memory has been declining, and I am worried. Is this normal at my age?

8. I also worry about spending money with my one income. Sometimes I want to go have fun but in the back of my mind, what happens if I need that money if something happens? I rather save it and save it but at the same time, if I don't go experience this or that, when will I ever will? I don't know if I have the energy for it when I get older. I am scared when I get older, I will have difficulty traveling or walking.
