Small victories

I haven't had a cigarette since September 2nd. Yeah I'm vaping but I got myself down to 6mg juice. And I just meditated for 3 hours and didn't vape.

I didn't have a migraine today.

I'm slowly getting comfortable with aspects of sexuality after 6 years of sexual repulsion after a traumatic rape. Well...kinda. but now I want to invest in googly eyes.

I had to order a replacement lid for my big water bottle. The gasket got moldy. And pauley attempted to bleach the silicone parts of the old lid and they started melting. The bottle is black and the new lid is baby blue. I just finished drinking 40oz of a mix of piña colada juice and cucumber limeade juice mix. It was so refreshing.

I can see some of the tendons on top of my right foot. I've got moderate bilateral lymphedema. The lasix has been really helping. Except now I'm peeing every 45 minutes. Oh well.

Electrolyte drink recommendations?

I have HEDS and likely/undiagnosed POTS and i’m looking for a way to stay more hydrated and i’m wondering what are everyone’s favorite drinks/mixes and flavors? I have used Ultima but I don’t like how the powder never mixes all the way in. I’ve also used propel which I like but can sometimes give me a headache. #hypermobileehlers-DanlosSyndrome(hEDS) #hydration #AutonomicDysfunction #PosturalOrthostaticTachycardiaSyndrome #Dysautonomia
