what being on steroids is REALLY like 🌝
TW !! discussions of weight gain, body image issues & insecurities - apologies I didn't think to put a warning at the beginning of the video, but the topic of steroids is very intertwined with body image problems for me, so that is a strong theme throughout the whole video! In case you are feeling delicate today & perhaps don't want to hear about all of that, maybe give this one a miss :)
Also for anyone wondering the steroid I am on is prednisolone, but I have also been on hydrocortisone in the past too!
& finally just to clarify, this video is not meant to dissaude anyone from steroids (as they are very effective, & I owe a lot of my lung stability to them!!) but more to shed light on the realities of being on them i.e. difficult side effects

why I dropped out of uni (& why you maybe should too) | University of Sussex Dropout
มุมมอง 7K2 ปีที่แล้ว
it's been a few months since I dropped out of second year - & still couldn't be happier about it! I just know that I struggled for a while accepting the decision that I didn't want to be at uni anymore, so if anyone else feels the same please don't think you are alone !! At the end of the day you need to put your mental health first, & if that means taking some time away from your course (or dr...
Tinting my lashes AT HOME?! 🦋 | Testing the Eylure Lash Dye Kit
มุมมอง 4.9K3 ปีที่แล้ว
Today I tried the Eylure Lash Dye kit! I was so skeptical as the last time I tried to do anything to my lashes, it didn't turn out so well... (big rip to the diablo lash lift kit) but I was pleasantly suprised with the results of this, & costed under £10 so pretty affordable too ⭐️ Eylure Lash dye kit - www.superdrug.com/Make-Up/Eye-Makeup/False-Eyelashes/Strip-Eyelashes/Eylure-Lash-Tint Black ...

Do all Cystic Fibrosis Patients think the same? | CF Awareness Month 💛
มุมมอง 4113 ปีที่แล้ว
As it is almost the end of CF Awareness Month it was only fitting that I did an extra special video 🌼 I always hope that my videos can give some insight to Cystic Fibrosis, but as with any other illness, it's so important to recognise that everyone's experience will be different !! A great way to demonstrate this is to hear from other people - in this video I was joined by some lovely other CFe...

I stopped Kaftrio.
มุมมอง 1.6K3 ปีที่แล้ว
so this video really has been 5 months in the making (oops) but I finally just wanted to bite the proverbial bullet & talk about my experience stopping the Kaftrio. I needed a bit of processing time as the whole experience was pretty overwhelming to say the least. But I feel comfortable to talk about it now - especially as I know it may help some other people. Just from chatting to other people...

my relationship with body image & Cystic Fibrosis
มุมมอง 5143 ปีที่แล้ว
hello lovelies as mentioned today's video is a bit longer than usual as I had a lot to talk about! I hope everything made sense - as I'm sure you can tell this is quite personal for me to go through, but I think it turned out ok in the end 😌 TW (trigger warning) - Because this video is discussing sensitive topics such as body image, perception of appearance, weight loss & gain, please take a mo...

Kaftrio update at 2 months | why the 'miracle drug' narrative can be problematic
มุมมอง 6803 ปีที่แล้ว
as always these are just my personal opinions & experiences of being on the Kaftrio (& of CF in general!) IMPORTANT TO NOTE - I am by no means saying that Kaftrio does not have the potential to help a lot of people - & if you are one of the people that it is helping then that is incredible!! But as I explain in the video, I think a lot of the time the way drugs like these are marketted only cau...

I've linked the lash kit below, maybe don't buy it... or do buy it? I really don't know what to tell you 😂 I've also a linked a lovely lady's video who I had on in the background helping me to make sure I didn't glue my eyes together (that part was a success at least) I think like most beauty, face/hair care products it may depend very much from person to person. I've heard people saying that d...
