    Can I make a suggestion that might help with how overwhelming a crowded busy place can be. I have hypersensitivity especially to light and sound. I use ear plugs and tinted glasses when needed. Which is almost everywhere there are people. :) My favorite ear plugs are Etymotic High-Fidelity but I also have Loops and Vibes. They allow you to still hear but remove a lot of the background noise.

      Thanks for the suggestions! I'm actually already tried your plugs and they don't really work for me because sound doesn't really bother me. With long Covid and PPPD it's more the like visual part of rich stimuli environments so places like Costco or maybe HomeGoods I have a really long and really crammed full shelves! And that makes me super dizzy and have vertigo! But I'm really excited to start this to be with therapy soon to work on this!!!

    Can’t wait for your beginner fantasy recommendations video - one of my goals for 2024 is to read more fantasy (I tend to stick with lit and memoirs) so it will be super helpful!

    I love Jennifer L. Armentrout’s Blood and Ash series. The prequel Flesh and Fire series is good too! The Witch Collector books by Charissa Weaks are so good and the next book release is in March. All the feels for these books. And anything by SJM. Deborah Harkness’s A Discovery of Witches is very smart. Okay that’s all for now 😊

  • @allaboutashtown

    I’m so glad you mentioned ACOTAR not being smutty. I totally agree but yet it’s mentioned everywhere as such a spicy book. 😬🤨🤔🧐 I was beginning to wonder if I just missed those parts of the book.

    • @CarterSullivan
      @CarterSullivan  Před 5 měsíci

      Ok see I'm glad it isn't just me hahah I did not find it spicy and thought I missed the spicy parts... but then again I read dark romance so my smut meter is pretty high LOL

    You should go to the 5th in the ACOTAR series then because that one is THE SMUTIEST!! 😳🫣🤭🥵

    • @CarterSullivan
      @CarterSullivan  Před 6 měsíci +1

      Honestly I looked up the scenes online since I knew I wasn't going to ever finish the series. It was decently spicy!

    Hello, This sounds like Vestibular Neuritis not long Covid, I have the same thing and I was diagnosed in 2016. I can’t go into a Costco without getting dizzy and restaurants are also crazy. Physical Therapy helps alot and I suspect I also have POTS. I hope you feel better and I hope you read this because it really sounds like Vestibular Neuritis.

    • @CarterSullivan
      @CarterSullivan  Před 5 měsíci +1

      While I know this comment was well intended and meant kindly, I have been to countless doctors and trust their opinions! I don't think we should try and diagnose people online. Like I mentioned in the video, I have PPPD as a result OF my long-covid and chronic migraines. PPPD is most often diagnosed after a vestibular event (for me it was 3-4 fainting episodes as a result of my long-covid and having chronic migraines for years). So while I understand this comment may have come from a kind place, we shouldn't be telling people what they do or don't have unless we're doctors. For alot of people it can take a long time to mentally accept and understand a diagnosis and it isn't fair to say someone's diagnosis isn't correct (coming from someone who works in healthcare).
