Yeaaaah…so both of my nipples started leaking. Which, in a weird way, makes me feel better? Cause having just one do it is kinda weird.
Also they hurt like wtf girls?
So I’m wearing a t-shirt for now, to soak up the tiny droplets which keep forming. It works, better than having to do it manually with a piece of toilet paper so freaking often, anyway.
This definitely isn’t an infection, I’m almost certain of that now. For one, it’s both of them leaking now.
And also…
Gross
It isn’t sour anymore. In my mind, sour would mean serous which would mean infection (for some reason, don’t ask).
Buuuut…well, now it’s slightly sweet and really just milky. It’s not…bad, actually.
All of this (in my opinion) points to high prolactin, which would make perfect sense in this case, I’m taking an SSRI (which increases prolactin), trazodone (which does as well) and cypro (which massively increases prolactin). I might bump my cypro dose down to 25mg every three days instead of two…
I think I’m fine, but I’m definitely getting an endo appointment now, just to make sure it’s not a tumor. Even a benign one, having a mass in your head is not a good thing…
Other than my boobs hurting a lot now and leaking a milky substance…I’m fine tho. And I think that’s a good thing.
The only thing that bothers me, is that as they grow, my nips are getting…well, I don’t like the shape much tbh. But what can I really do?
Actually, I was surprised by this reaction of mine, but I’m actually kind of enjoying the milkage. It’s…affirming in the grossest, weirdest of ways (sorry). I don’t mind! Still, worth getting checked out. And I’ll do just that.
Glad to help!
And yeah with the peanut butter it’s great because you can just grab a tablespoon and have a few spoonfuls when the hunger hits. And if you start getting body image issues hindering your ability to eat, there are resources for it.
Tap for pep talk to quit the vape
And yeah, I know the vape is addictive, but I’ll suggest keeping it inconvenient to use so you have to think about if it’s worth using before you do it (same as putting the alcohol bottle on the high shelf between glasses rather than leaving it on the counter, an extra bit of effort can slow you down), as well as finding some other tricks to reduce your nicotine consumption. Or do cold turkey, apologize to everyone you’ll be a bitch for a few weeks and decide if you’ll pick it back up in two years, however your brain works best for such things. Ultimately you have to want to quit, but that’s something you can work on, you’ve already come this far, I know it’s hard, but you can do it.
Don’t even have to announce it, cause that’s the default for me for some reason 😭 /s
I’m trying to get rid of one addiction at a time. For now, that’s kratom. And I’m still not back to normal.
However, I know it’s bad (and especially with HRT) and I do actually plan to quit one day. Just probably not right now.
Thank you, also ❤️
That’s the right call. I just didn’t see you were quitting kratom. Good luck with that recovery!
