Naamah D.

Hi all, I got bangs recently. I like my hair fluffy and soft. I have OCD and have been obsessively brushing my naturally curly hair to make it softer and fluffed but it’s damaging it. Question does my hair already have that light and fluffy poofy-ness? I hate having flat hair

Whoopsie! I put my main account Neopets in the Neolodge but then I realized I had plenty of food to feed them. Will I get in trouble or frozen for checking them out of the Neolodge so soon?

Thank you all for your kindness here he is being cute. I took this picture recently. He was very well behaved at the vet. He was born with a hernia in his abdomen too. 

My mom and brother took my cat I've had for 11 years to the vet and they did some blood work....he has liver cancer. I'm very scared.

Hey all! It turns out that I didn’t need to change medication at all. My abilify dosage was lowered and I am okay! 

Not to mention...I’ve lost over 40 pounds. Instead of a 22/24 at 267 I am a happy and healthy 16/18. 

This thread is right up my alley! I’ve recently lost over 40 pounds and am almost to my goal so I’m starting to fall back in love with clothes again. I love Torrid, Forever 21, Rue21, American Eagle, Target, Maurices, Black Craft and Hot Topic the best but also like local boutiques and clothing stores in my area. 

For me it doesn’t matter anymore. I’m hardly on Neopets because:

1. In my free time I prefer doing other things I’m more invested in

2. I don’t own a laptop or computer 

I don’t lose sleep over and panic too much about Neopets shutting down. For me the worry isn’t worth it. I have other hobbies and interests that I would still have. 

I have a Ghost Buzz and Starry Grarrl up for adoption. Message me on here for details.

EDIT: I decided to keep my Gnorbu. 

I accidentally payed 622 NP for an item instead of full price that was 20 NP more. Did I get that item fair and square or will that come off as cheating?

I love the Aisha clothes! I have a female Aisha who is yellow and it would look cute on her. It's very 1930s country girl. It also reminds me of the American Girl doll named Kit.

I also agree with the warrior theme looking like a Sucker Punch cosplay lol. 

I also love stuffed animals from Build A Bear and Aurora. Has anyone seen Feisty Pets, Pikmi Pops and Squeezamals? Those are cute too. 

I just started playing it. It’s fun and I get NP so I’m happy.

Things that you've said show you've got a really poor self-image, which is super sad

I'm actually a really confident and body positive person. My mom says that she wishes she had my confidence. I worked really hard for my confidence and I'm worried that if I gain weight all of the years of ignoring and shrugging off rude comments will go to waste. Believe it or not I hated my body when I was smaller. I've gained weight over the years and it seems that I've stopped in the 250 range and am stuck there. 

Those dresses are cute though. Thanks for showing them to me. 

You all are so supportive.

Your health is more important than your weight, and you are no less than any other woman just because you're not skinny

I understand that. I'm just concerned that I won't be able to even fit into a size 6x due to weight gain from medication. I'd have to wear men's clothes.

Health above everything peep! Stable is what you need!

I'm on keppra for epilepsy,  and yes it did make me gain 20 extra pounds (bringing me to an unpleasant 235lbs. Normally I was 215lbs and losing weight.), BUT it helped! I have to take it for the rest of my life which sux, but if it helps you, it helps you.

But do not forget to weigh the pros and cons!!! For me:

Pros:helps reduce seizures, suppressed appetite 

Cons: weight gain, suicidal thoughts,  depression. 

Everything has a side effect.  It is up to you what you can handle. Hope that helps.

Have a good day/night

I feel like gaining weight would make me unworthy of everything including video games and Beanie Boos. I wouldn't be feminine and beautiful anymore. I just get so tired of focusing on looks and I can't stop focusing on my appearance. I was on Depakote for seizures and it made me gain so much weight. I felt like I missed out on being the trendy teenager who won best dressed in the year book. Instead I won the most friendly award. I feel guilty because I didn't get to be a cheerleader with blonde hair who got engaged to the captain of the football team after college. I don't like who I truly am. I like the idea of the perfect woman. 

My mom mentioned how she could "totally" see me wearing men's band tees and goth boots. She says she doesn't care what I wear and while I do think band tees and goth boots are socially acceptable, I'm going into early childhood education. I need to dress prissy and girly 24/7 for that job or else I'll get fired. I love wearing girly clothes and that appeals to me more than dressing like an emo kid. I know they make stylish clothes above a size 20/22 (my current clothing size) but what if I get too massive for clothes above that size? I can kiss being a stylish and professional woman goodbye. 

I've been on abilify for eight years and am now struggling with involuntary eye blinking, and tremors in my left arm as a long term side effect. My doctor and I talked and we are going to lower the dosage of the abilify and if these long term side effects keep happening, they are going to switch the medicine. We are thinking about switching me to Latuda which is a newer antipsychotic.

Has anyone ever taken Latuda and does it cause people to gain so much weight to where they end up being 330 or more pounds? I'm really scared that I will have to choose between having permenant involuntary movements and staying fit or gaining 330 or more pounds and stable.

OMG, ME!!! I just had a flashback, lol. In second grade, we made a book for our class, so everyone had to write a page about themselves. Here's a snippet from my page:

 

  

I'm not usually drawn to shiny things, but that dragon had me mesmerised! If I ever see a smaller version of it, I might just get it. 

Anyway, I made the mistake of checking out their website, and now I'm obsessed with this one too:

Help 

I recently bought the Halloween cat with the pumpkin. Her name is Potion. Cute name for a little Halloween kitty.

Hmm...that's a tough question. I'd either get a Faerie Grundo, Disco Aisha or Desert Aisha. Unless I have three slots open then I'd get all three. 

Does anyone in your family make a food that you absolutely love? For me, it would be my mom's homemade ramen. What about all of you people?

Sorry to hear about that. Last night we got a tornado warning in my area. My brother, our cats and myself all went down to the basement. I brought six of my Beanie Boos with me for comfort (I'm terrified of tornadoes so I really needed a coping skill). Our cats were meowing like crazy, my brother kept an eye on his weather app and we are okay.

I'm shocked that my house didn't lose power. Did you lose power?

Recently started playing the good old PSP game again. Has anyone played it? 

Hey there! It's good to see you again. Have you been doing anything fun during your time away from Neopets?

I have a huuuuuuuge pile of stuffed animals at the foot of my bed :3 Recent additions include an AAAARRRRGH from trollhunters, a skeleton kitty, and a watermelon-colored bat - a "fruit bat". I actually recently got one of the small leopard-like beanie boos from a date, and it's cute, but the dragon is the one I really want! But I'm afraid I'd lose the small one, so I've been keeping an eye out for the big one. Unfortunately, I don't think my local convenience store will get new ones in until someone buys the ones they have, and they don't seem to be moving. 

I have other stuffed animals that aren't Beanie Boos. I have Hello Kitty plushies from the Sanrio store, these cute cats with tiaras and fairy wings, Neopets plushies and plenty other cuties. Stuffed animals are amazing. Which dragon one do you want? The dragons are so squishy and colorful!
