showing a real example of what itโs like living with OCPD and trying to make โrationalโ decisions about your life ๐ค
Iโm using my upcoming surgery as the example here, but honestly this same mental back-and-forth shows up in so many other parts of my life too ๐
itโs like constantly weighing every possible outcome, trying to make the โperfectโ decision, and still never fully feeling settled in it ๐ญ
just trying to be honest about how complicated decision-making can feel sometimes ๐
quick update after my hip consultation ๐ค
I scheduled the surgery.
still going back and forth in my head a little, but at the end of the day it doesnโt really make sense to wait for things to get worse before doing something about it ๐
trying to trust the decision and move forward ๐
quick little life update before heading into my hip replacement consultation ๐ค
feeling a mix of nervous, hopeful, and ready to finally get some answers ๐
Iโll keep you guys updated on everything ๐

๐ฆด๐ญ quick rantโฆ
I feel like physical therapy gets thrown at me every single time I talk about chronic pain
and donโt get me wrong โ there are SO many situations where PT is helpful and even necessary
but in my caseโฆ I found out my bones are literally shaped abnormally, and thatโs not something PT can fix
if anything, pushing through certain movements was actually making things worse on those joints
I guess my point isโฆ not everything has a one-size-fits-all solution, and sometimes there are deeper things going on that need to be looked at
just sharing my experience because I know I canโt be the only one whoโs felt this way ๐ญ
๐๏ธโจ lash tape hack for DIY cluster lashes
using lash tape to gently lift the eye so you can clearly see the waterline for more precise cluster placement ๐ซง
this helps you place the lashes right at the base for better retention, while also preventing poking, irritation, and discomfort throughout the week ๐ค
