    You sooo do not need to be embarrassed for not going to the dentist for 5 years. I've been working on some social research about oral health care and I've spoken to so many people that hadn't been to the dentist since they were a child in school (there's a free school dental program in my country), before finding a place that's consciously trying to be accessible. There are so many factors that make it hard to go regularly and I'm so glad you found a way to go that's accessible for you - and that you're drawing attention to it!

    I don’t know what I expected from the title but for whatever reason dental care wasn’t on my radar. I appreciate the call out of its importance though!! It’s so frustrating that American insurance separates your mouth from the rest of your body, despite how little sense that makes.

    • @JustinaErcole
      @JustinaErcole  4 дня назад +9

      Blame dentists a hundred or so years ago. We should have dental care included with regular health care, but dentists at the time protested.

      Not just America. In my European country all doctor visits are free and yet when I visit the dentist, not all of it gets covered by the insurance. It may not be hundreds or thousands but when so much of my paycheck goes towards taxes why do I still need to bring a bunch of cash with me every time I visit the dentist? How is getting a surgery on a different part of the body free but getting a filling costs me more than a day worth of pay?

    Wonderful as always. I’m 58 and my days of going out to get sh!t faced are definitely over. I have what I call my “no drinking on school nights” rule. As in, if I feel like one drink Friday or Saturday I go ahead. Although we just did a 7 day cruise and there was multiple drinks every day. I played the flute for many years and that’s a retirement goal to take lessons again. I haven’t played in years. I also have a keyboard, but my brain is so wired to one note on one clef. Multiple notes over 2 clefs just confuses my brain! At the moment I seem to watch more RUclips than TV, so it’s videos like yours, home renovations and clips from bridal shows.

    Im terrified of the dentist, but i found a good one. I wanted to note that women in peri and menopause have increased gum issues, so dental care is very important. Also, I am a sober girl for 16 years, love my decision and 10 out of 10 would recommend. ❤

    I’ve never been a big alcohol person (probably due to my uncle being an alcoholic and me being a control freak) so I always like juice or tea drinks and I can tell how much it’s engrained in our culture when I would have new friends be like “ooooh can you not have alcohol? Why aren’t you drinking?” And when I explain I just don’t really care for the taste they just stare at me. I’m not saying I won’t ever have any because if they have a sangria sure I will, but it’s not something I have to have.

    I am so very glad you talked about alcohol consumption. Right before the pandemic, I realized that I needed to make a change and get my drinking under control, and I am so thankful I did. Both my physical and my mental health have improved significantly partly because of reducing alcohol intake.

    I haven't been to a dentist for about ten years as I was very afraid and had to deal with so many other things, but then, after I moved to another city, I found one who was specialized for anxious people like me. They were so nice there, so now I go there every six months without feeling scared. When I was there for the first time, I was so stressed I started to cry and usually I would feel so much ashame because of that, but they treated me so nice , whiped my tears away and asked very often if I was okay, so I felt completely safe. My last dentist ten years before war terrible so it was really hard for me to force myself to make an appointment. I will never like going to a dentist, but it doesn't scare me anymore, thanks to all the nice people there.

    This video called me out within the first few minutes because I also haven't been to the dentist since 2019 and it is largely because of anxiety (of being judged by the dentist because of my lack of dentist visits).

    Even if you have the money, dental insurance doesn’t pay for much. A yearly fee makes sense. My dentist offers a yearly fee for discounts on everything. Although, I’m limited to one office, but they offer everything. I’m 64, and you really need to take care of your teeth as you age. Especially to chew those crunchy veggies! Alcohol gives me a headache and then I can’t sleep. It ruined the enjoyment part.

    As someone who's a little older than you, I can honestly say that, while the third area of concern might seem in one's brain to justify continuing to indulge in the second for reasons of relaxation and recovery, one reason I have found for not struggling with being sober for the entirety of this year though I don't really struggle with alcohol anyway is that recovery from the way it slows you down and knocks you out becomes its own detriment. While I understand the felt need to reset, alcohol is less and less effective at that while causing more and more difficulties even with really moderate use. What threw a lot of us off previously is that studies would show something equivalent to a glass of wine at night actually being beneficial, potential addiction issues aside. That no longer seems to be the case, and it makes you kind of wonder what methodological tomfoolery may have led to the earlier conclusions.

    • @jessicaharrison4719
      @jessicaharrison4719 3 дня назад +4

      From what I understand, the issue is that people who NEVER drink alcohol usually do this because of health reasons, so the negative health outcomes are more likely to be due to the underlying health reasons that the people stopped drinking for, not from abstaining from alcohol.

  • @violetash9597
    @violetash9597 4 дня назад +3

    Speaking of alcohol and artificial sugar intakes: would you be able/willing to do a video about sparkling waters? I love sparkling water. It’s basically my new pop. There’s brands like La Croix, Meijer, and Ice Mountain that make sparkling water without sweetener, sodium, etc. there’s also sparkling water that’s more like pop, like Evolution (juice is added), Sparkling Ice (they have caf & non caf with artificial sweeteners in it), & even Meijer brand versions called Crystal Quenchers (with sweeteners). These all have various effects on our health even if they’re the “healthier” version of pop.

    @tinnie75 3 дня назад +2

    I'm glad that for some reason (maybe because I don't like to socialize much or maybe it's the other way around) I never really ended up drinking alcohol much or enjoying it. I'd have a little bit when at a family party or something but most of the time I didn't even like the taste enough for it to be worth the sluggishness or simply my arms feeling heavy after only drinking a little bit. But I'd try it here and there, thinking that maybe this time there would be a drink I like. Well, between that and the research about even small doses being harmful, I've been trying to put a stop to the social pressure to have even a little bit at parties. I'm doing other things to be healthy, so why ruin it with something I don't even enjoy? And I'd rather consume those calories in the form of chocolate anyway.
