I had a scare like that too a couple months ago. Same scenario, i was showering and felt a lump and like you my mind just raced. I told my parents while sobbing. It was a terrifying moment. I did get it checked out and thankfully it was nothing. But it was definitely a scary moment.
I think it is so important to talk about these topics. Well done guys!
Tay I am speechless. First of all, thank you so much for sharing your first story and I am SO glad all is well for you there!
I watched the second story with my hand over my mouth and tears in my eyes. I went through the same thing when I got off BC pills after 10 yrs and switched to the copper/non-hormonal IUD. I experienced a severe depressive episode and severe anxiety. You saying "I was unwell" was like it came straight from my own mouth. I thought I was having a nervous breakdown. But I also had strange new cystic body acne and new extremely oily scalp, but didnt put all the details together at the time. It lasted several months and was terrifying. My gyno didnt mention anything about expecting mood changes at my appt, no one in my life has ever mentioned it, I had literally NO idea to expect that--- and I am a nurse! It wasnt until several years later, I was reflecting back on the "winter I randomly had that nervous breakdown" and realized oh my god that was 1 month after stopping my BC, and my nurse brain kicked in and it alllllllllll clicked.
Now any time BC comes up in convo with lady friends, I always share that story as a heads up/warning so that no one thinks they are as crazy as I did.
You guys are the best for talking about these things!!!
okay but for real the biggest help for my anxiety is the writing out my to-dos and getting them out of my head. Having organized lists in order of importance or things you think about that you wanna do and not having it floating around where you're like "i have too many things to remember" is so helpful
I just had the same health care and needed a biopsy to make sure it wasn’t anything. Fortunately, all good. Thank you for opening up it means a lot
Thank you for sharing you health scare story! I had one two years ago, in the shower as well, but in the side of my stomach. I was an absolute wreck for weeks filled with ultrasounds, they found three lumps, to then going into surgery to have them removed and waiting so impatiently to find out the diagnosis. Turns out they were completely benign lipomas, cause by a car accident I had the year prior. They'll come back the rest of my life, but never be life-threatening. Health scares take such a mental toll on you, so I appreciate you sharing! It's nice to hear someone on the younger side relate to this.
You should have Eamon and Bec on your podcast!! They are TH-camrs from Canada. They lost a very close friend to suicide (Lee Macmillan who was also an influencer) and Bec has been through breast cancer. They recently had a baby and are such a beautiful family. Bec always talks about mental health and she’s bringing back their podcast on it as well! Amazing people to host :)
YES!!! That would be awesome!
I had breast cancer which I coulndn't feel with a self exam but had a regular mamogram which scared the heck out me. I certainly can understand your panic.
Look into soursop fruit and leaves for tea
Mango leaf tea
Durian
Jackfruit
Whole food plant based diet of whole fruits and vegetables and grains if you choose to eat meat eat only lean meats
grains like wild rice, couscous, kamut, quinoa and amaranth
turkey tail mushroom
Praying for Taylor to be in more movies! 🙏🙌
I am glad that you were so open about mentioning those health scares (especially the first one). I love and appreciate you both 🥹🫶🏻💖💖
I had same scare. I had more than what I felt. Mine are cyst. I go get checked every 6 months for the next 2 years. God is good. 🙏
Loved this episode! I can 100% relate to Tay on finding lumps and withdrawing from BC. Hormones and being a woman is a crazy experience sometimes. And I appreciate the ending. A lot of good reminders and helping me get through another day ❤❤
Thank you Taylor for speaking out to the person who was gonna harm themselves. That person may have felt really heard to have you address it and comfort them with your words. Much love to the beautiful couple and those who go throuh mental difficulties every day
I felt like i was just chatting with you guys in the living room 💖
As much as I struggle with my life, I always say nothing stays the same. Things are always changing. I have faith in God and pray that He will get me through whatever is bugging me. It does help to have a good support system. Man, I wish I had a husband like Taylor to hold me when I'm going through a rough time, but unfortunately 27 years into a marriage that support is not really there (unless it is something drastic). Sometimes I don't want to live my life anymore, but one thing is for sure, I don't want to end it. Thank you for such a brilliant episode.
How is it that I relate to all of these episodes but this ONE I have experienced everything you have encountered!!! From the anxiety attack to finding a lump at 22.
Wow, this episode hit hard. My grandpa died on Monday and his funeral was on Wednesday and everyone that was there said amazing things about him. It made me realize that I need to write down those memories that I’ve made with other people. This was so wholesome and I loved it❤
this podcast is so relaxing to listen to! I love it!
I think it's also important that we don't forget that males can have breast cancer too. My husband had a health scare too like Tay. Breast cancer runs in my husband's family his mom has breast cancer. Thank goodness he got it checked out and it was nothing.
I had a similar lump scare this past month when doing a self exam in the shower. Experienced all the same emotions too. It’s relieving to hear that someone else had the same reaction. I’m so glad you’re healthy and doing well ♥️
What a great ep! Loved this one guys. The solo episodes are wonderful!
PS glad to hear Tay got on top of her health scares!! X
I like that you're talking of real issues.
My wife recently had a scare but manogram came back negative and it was just hormonal. Thank you for sharing. Happy that you are doing well. Blessings to you
I love you both so much! This is the only Podcast I have ever listened to and it’s a life changer! Thank you for all the good/ important topics to talk about life and mental health! 🥰❤️
After breastfeeding your breast change as well!! Thanks for sharing this because it happens to so many of us women!!! It’s so scary but glad your being open with us
Amazing episode thank you for remiding us to tell the people in our lives how much we appreciate and love them.
I wish everyone would watch or listen to yalls podcast. I learn something wonderful from every episode and I love that you both actually care about others. I wish and pray that telling others how they have impacted your life positively would go viral because everyone needs that positivity in their lives. ❤❤❤
Thank you so much for this Tay. It really is SO scary isn’t it, I have terrible health anxiety. You’re so brave for sharing💕
In May I found a hard lump near my foreheard,did a ct scan,doc said it cannot be removed,but it's harmless,now i'm living with it as a part of my skull,but I still remember that 'feeling' when I found it,all I can think about is my 8yo daughter at that time,my husband will be okay but the idea of not be able to be there for my daughter when she grow up was making my body my soul my mind frozen but my heart was beating so fast
Many young women have fibrocystic breasts! It is dense breast tissue that can change or become harder during their cycle. It is certainly still important to get things checked out if you feel lumps or have a family history. So happy to hear it was nothing and that all is well!
Wow! I thouroughly enjoyed every second of this episode of the squeeze! great great topics to talk about!!!! HUGE THANKS TAYLORS!!! you all are THE BOMB never ever change! loveeeee taaaays sweet voice! ✨✨✨very soothing and relaxing!
🤍🤍🤍
Thank you for talking about these things. I've had both happen to me previously, and no one talks about it, so like you, I panicked. I appreciate your honestly and openness to get the information out there ❤
I have reallly bad health anxiety on top of just regular anxiety! Im gping through something now similar to what you talked about I got to my appointment tomorrow. So im trying to not be in my head as gard as that is. You made me feel calm listening to you that everything will be okay so thank you so much!! You guys are amazinggg your helping more people then you realize❤.
Thank you so much for sharing!! I loved this episode so much because it was so relatable and informative ❤️ glad you’re okay!!
DUDE the way that no doctors ever talk about birth control and the side effects of going off or on it is wild and so not ok. They Willy nilly put me on it when I was 16 and then again when I was 26 because of bad periods and it literally wrecked my life. Gave me intolerances, digestive issues, hormonal imbalances and it gave me a heart arrythmia that I’m still dealing with to this day. If you want to go on any birth control, just know that you should deeply research it before going on it, as the medical world is severely lacking in info on it and warnings. I know it helps people but it did not help me personally
🙌
I’m glad you guys are talking about these topics because it’s not talked enough about lot. I’ve had horrible experiences when it comes to birth control, especially the pills and implants. The pill had given me the depressive moods as the side effects and had a miscarriage andectopic pregnancy as a result. But fast forward to 4 yrs later, now blessed with two beautiful boys and found the right birth control thats right for my body.
Definitely important to talk to your doctor about these things.
Yay was waiting for a solo episode!! I love them!!!
There is a really strong connection between estrogen and ADHD symptoms, so withdrawing from BC for women with ADHD can be particularly difficult. Also, for future reference, sometimes your PCP can fill one month of a medication a specialist prescribes in a pinch - especially if you've been consistent on a med for a decade.
I really appreciate your transparency
For me it was the actual opposite. Took birth control for over two years and suddenly went bananas. I was feeling like I was going crazy, my emotions were taking over me and I had LOTS of anxiety. One day I had a panic attack and I literally dropped them in the garbage and stopped them completely. I feel so good now. I felt poisoned. Even my gut health improved GREATLY, I had constant acid reflux while on the pill and never thought it could be related. Then I did some research and learned how damaging it is… never again!
Same! And I was only on it two weeks! It’s nasty stuff!
Just now getting to watch this episode. I enjoy the variety of topics you touch on. Much appreciated. Hormones are something too often overlooked that can really effect so much, between birth control, pregnancy, perimenopause which many ladies dont realize is a thing, and ofcorse menopause. So often can cause anxiety and so much more.
This happened to me when I went on birth control when I got married, I felt horrible and so anxious and finally figured it out after two weeks what it was and stopped it right away. It messes with hormones so badly i would never go on it again. If you withdraw that bad from it, it’s probably not great to be on.
Tay, I live by my lists!! Those help SO much when I am feeling anxiety and overwhelmed by having so much to do. I'm glad to hear that your scares ended up not being serious, and that you are feeling better. No one in my family has thyroid issues, so when they found nodules in my thyroid, and the biopsy couldn't tell if they were cancerous or not, I know that fear. I had to have half of it removed to find out it wasn't cancer, but that was a very scary few months of Dr. appts and tests.
It's kind of funny that I was thinking, I need to make a list of people so I could send those messages to, and you challenged us to message someone. I will take that challenge. :)
I have had anxiety and depression since I was in High School and it got so bad that my parents made me go to a psychiatrist and they put me on medication to help and a lot of of it in the beginning is trial and error to find the right medication but it definitely can help if you need it to help get through your day!
So glad TayTay is okay ❤ love yall
I am so glad you are getting seen and being checked out
I have fibrocystic breast disease so my boobs get constantly lumpy and it’s a horrible feeling all the time .
But I get heart mammograms and ultrasounds and any new lump that concerns me we still are cautious.
This is a good reminder to get your boobies checked ! Xo
Great episode Taylors!! ❤️
I remember when I found my fibroadenoma when I was 19 by myself in the shower 😭 I was so scared! So thankful it was just a fibroadenoma. But I understand the jarring feeling and the the fear that comes with it. So sorry that happened!
Loved this episode thank you for sharing those topics it's really important to talk about them well done ik it must of been really hard and I'm really proud of yous for doing it I love you guys so much ❤
As a woman and lemon drop I wish I could give girl Tay a hug ❤️
I needed this Tay and Taylor
I think the lump and the withdrawals are linked, and a HUGE sign you should not be on birth control. It gives you a synthetic cycle and can eventually lead to infertility (I’ve been there). Reproductive health should be supported by our partners and that means detox asap ♥️
Yes!
Tay I got off my birth control last September when you partnered with natural cycles and I love their app so much! It took my body some time to adjust I also took birth control for like ten years.
Definitely had the bc withdrawal as well. I get depressed super easy, but when off it gets way way worse it's like dragging your shell of a self around daily.
It does only take a month to get out of it.
Cupid Shuffle is to the right to the right 😂
Just went the other day for my annual mammogram and ultrasound- I have dense breasts. It’s always scary even if you don’t feel anything. Yes sometimes being a woman is very scary especially with hormones taking over
I’ve had multiple breast biopsies bc I have A LOT of lumps in both. My first appointment I had to wait two months to get seen. It was torture.
Please Taylor bring your sister I would like to hear all the stories about you and Tay😊
Great Talk!
He really loves his name too much that he loves women named Taylor. That's kind of cute tbh 💕
I had to have breast biopsy twice and it came back ok and it was detected both times by my mammogram.
Stay in the fight 💙🤎
🙏❤️
Is this the wolf guy from the vampire movie?
My husband has Major depression. He is having a episode right how and I want to help him but he tells me there is nothing I can do. He does see a therapist and also see a doctor every 3 months. What can I do to help him?
I’ve heard that sometimes dogs can sense things like that
I missed the tnt 😭
I'm looking forward to a Halloween episode. Are you guys going to dress up??
Why is it so hard to find a female doctor now!! Uggg same!!! And yea coming off of birth control is so hard and it’s diff for every single person. The hormone change is so hard.
美男美女❤❤❤❤
I love this episode so much I think it’s so great that you’re both so open and honest with us and as someone who was struggling with sh I want to say it does get better find someone who you can talk to even if it’s just a walk in clinic it will help you so much! The first step is the hardest but after that you will feel so much better and feel so proud of yourself for just talking 🩷 sending all the love to whoever needs this message 🩷
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you for sharing your story Tay, although I’m sorry you had to go through that 🫶🏼
I’ve been wanting to go off my bc for a while as I’ve been on it for 15 years so I really don’t know how my body actually works on its own 😅
I’ve read and heard that while everyone is of course different, a lot of women experience “side effects” within 6 mos- 1 year after going off the pill
There’s definitely supplements you can take, herbs you can drink as teas, and veggies to incorporate into your diet the 3 mos before going off that can help with the withdrawals!
All to say that it’s a great reminder to be gentle with ourselves as we learn about our unique body functions ✨
Stay cool friends 🍋
