Yeah I had an anaphylactic reaction to mango as a teen so I got tested for all other common allergens just in case. I eat nuts daily, but the skin test showed deadly allergy to all nuts except peanuts. However, the tree nut test was right next to the sage pollen test, and I had a MASSIVE reaction to sage pollen - it makes me think that possibly my skin was just really unhappy in that area, since I still eat nuts all the time with no reaction.

I do this when I haven’t processed my day or my emotions fully. Once I stop distracting myself with activities and lie down quietly, it’s like my brain goes “yay, time to think about the stuff you’re avoiding”!

Perhaps meditation before bed would help so that you can think through everything and immediately sleep? When I remember to do that I sleep really well.

Opera, wow! Did you do just the libretto or are you a composer too?

Hi Nina. I’m a content manager/data analytics profession and really interested in getting into fighting disinformation long term. What would you suggest are ways I can help now, and ways I can help long term?

This is really good to know. I don’t know much about the amen clinic but I read a book about types of ADHD written by Dr Amen, and was totally taken in by it. I did find it a little strange that the afterword was him explaining why the medical field doesn’t take him seriously...
