So painfully true 😭 I’ve been at it with a group of friends and we just finally reached the moon yesterday, after a month of pain and suffering.

Proud of you <3

The standard lab ranges are defined by “at least some people don’t show symptoms of deficiencies or issues or etc at these levels,” not “everyone is guaranteed to be fine in these ranges.” I was “in range” with B12 until I started developing nerve damage from a deficiency of it, with years of symptoms leading up to it that were ignored because I was “in range.” I was “in range” with folate, because the standard lab tests inactive folic acid and not active folate. I was “in range” with ferritin, and yet had significant improvement from taking more iron. I was “in range” with potassium and then ended up in the ER multiple times from hypokalaemia so bad that I could barely move.

You get the idea. “In range” is not the same as “will get no benefit from supplementing it,” but it’s the kind of thing that ideally is done with proper medical assistance if you think you’re deficient in things.

You can’t just call me out like this.

A great question and I don’t know the answer 😭 It gets so much harder as I keep getting older…

Strongly relatable 😭

👋 hi hi!

>////<

Same…

I ask myself this every day :(

Same :(

Unfortunately I don’t know; my phone tells me I saved this back in 2019.

🫂 🫂

That’s okay! Everyone deserves to feel loved and heard and happy <3

Aww I’m sorry, I hope your next relationship will be everything you want 🫂

Can confirm! I’ve massively reframed how I’ve seen myself over the last few years, it’s been great.

I don’t have the collar either ;-; But sharing is always good!

I don’t have one of those either, but I hear from friends that it’s very true.

I started hunting down heirlooms/landraces and doing my own breeding work. I hear from the people who get the end results from me that it’s some of the best they’ve ever had, so I have to assume I’m doing well growing them…
