ngl i was lowkey gatekeeping this site because i didn’t want there to be more competition to get xxs/00 items but i shop wayy too often now so i guess i should share. thredup is great for secondhand shopping, i like it particularly because you can search by fabric. it’s not perfect and they do make mistakes sometimes, but 99% of my wardrobe comprises thredup pieces now.
vintage stella mccartney dress for $20 selling for $75-$130 on other sites. it’s missing its belt but i honestly think it looks better without it, i’m probably going to use a seam ripper on the belt loops and steam the suture holes to make them nearly invisible. i don’t think i’ve ever been drawn to a piece the way i’m drawn towards this so i thought i’d share!
I’m 26 and I’ve been prescribed wellbutrin since I was 15, but as a teenager I never stayed on it for longer than a month because my parents wouldn’t get it refilled regularly and up until I was about 24 I struggled with taking it regularly simply because I was terribly forgetful (ADHD). Wellbutrin made me anxious and I never took it long enough to pass the anxiety phase but I kept trying to take it because it was the only medication that helped me get out of bed. Around 24 I started taking it regularly and it was life changing. I took it regularly for a year and a half and that was truly the best time in my life, I was so motivated and happy and energized. The anxiety lasted for over a month but lessened until I didn’t feel anxious at all. Unfortunately last September I had a horrible health crisis where I couldn’t stomach anything for 6 weeks, including wellbutrin. Since then I’ve really struggled taking it regularly again, I’m in bed all day every day and I still couldn’t remember to take it. I’ve been on it consistently for two weeks, the anxiety is getting so bad and I’m not feeling the benefits yet - But I’m persevering. I need to get to that place again. Where I can get out of bed every day without it feeling like I’m being weighed down by bricks, where I feel thirsty and my body gets up to get a glass of water so easily instead of me telling myself I’ll get it and thinking about myself getting it until I get distracted and then forgetting to get it for hours. Ughhh wellbutrin benefits please kick in soon
