So a few weeks ago I took plan b and a week later, I ended up getting my period a week earlier than it was due. Literally since then, I’ve been bleeding. We’re on day 11 guys…

And just to note, this period was super light for me and I keep thinking it’s fading and gonna stop and then it comes back. It’s brown but also sometimes dark red brown. So it’s not even cute.

It seems too heavy for it to be spotting, but now I’m questioning what’s going on. I know plan b can fuck with your cycle, though I’ve taken it before and this has never happened. Should I call my gyno? Do you think it was spotting and my actual period is gonna start soon? Am I gonna just bleed until I die?

I’ve been on lexapro for about a year and a half. I got on it for anxiety. I have really bad social anxiety (heart will start beating out of my chest if I do something out of my comfort zone to the point of me not doing anything) and I also have some stomach issues which I believe to be very much linked to anxiety.

Being on lexapro allows me to not worry about what could happen and just live in the moment more. I don’t get as much physical anxiety symptoms and it’s allowed me to talk more socially, try new things, and even get up on stage and perform to a crowd!!

But here are my issues with it. I’m CHRONICALLY tired (I’m on 20mg now) and I don’t feel “jazzed” about anything. I feel just very neutral. It takes a lot for me to cry, and when I do I realize how much I miss that. I also don’t get nervous excited about anything, which is a feeling I want to have.

I want to have the full spectrum of emotions and I guess I’m wondering if those 2 things are enough of a reason for me to get off it. I’m worried I’m gonna get all my physical symptoms back and not be able to perform on stage which is something I am so proud of myself for doing.

Any thoughts, any stories about your experiences with this?

So I currently have an xt2 and am getting bigger photography gigs so I definitely need a second body. I’m a documentary-style photographer and to be honest, I don’t really feel I need a 40mp camera sensor like the xt5. I rarely crop my images much/if at all and it would just take up so much storage space. I’m considering picking up a used xt3 or xt4.

My question to all of you is if that’s a good idea or if you think I would really want the xt5 OR the coming soon xt6. I don’t believe I need the newest and best camera to produce beautiful images, but at the same time if there are things such as IBIS (I know that’s in the xt4 and not the xt3) that would make my life easier, maybe it makes sense to have them.

Just so ya know, the current lenses I have are the 16mm, 23mm, 35mm, and 50 mm (I am planning on selling the 50 because I never use it). These are all the little cheap guys. I’m considering getting a 33mm 1.4 which I think will help me in lower light situations.

Thanks all! I’ve been down so many Reddit and YouTube rabbit holes and need some guidance before I spend a ton of money!

I keep having this dilemma. I have my beloved Fujifilm xt2 and a few primes (the little ones, not any of the f1.4s). I’m starting to do professional work like couples, small events, etc and aim to capture little moments in a documentary style. I feel my small setup fits with my style but I’m worried the camera just isn’t powerful enough.

I just got asked to do a wedding in October that will most likely been indoor/outdoor in the evening with low light. Can Fujifilm be trusted in these situations with handling low light and having fast enough autofocus to capture those small moments? I know I’ll probably need to train myself with a flash, but I’d love to not have to rely on flash since it’s not really my style.

I’m considering getting the xt5, or possibly waiting for the xt6 to come out, but I’m nervous to invest in a whole new body if at the end of the day, I should be switching to Sony or Canon.

Anyone have thoughts/advice? Thank you!
