You read it right... Like most Mylotters, I gave Review Stream a try. And if I remember it correctly, I submitted 3 reviews. Each of them had more than 200 words. And all of them were 100% based on opinions. So, I'm confident...

sandi109 Awesome! I knew you would probably get the full rate for that review. I'm trying to focus my reviews on the cosmetic, travel and leisure, medicine and electronics sections for now. I've made out a list to help me. I know what you mean about spending more time...

sandi109 I am glad I was able to help. Let me know how things go with your cosmetics review and the movie review after you resubmit. I hope they are both quickly accepted. :)

sandi109 I definitely think it is worth it trying to revise it. Both of us are new and therefore need to experiment a little so we can learn exactly what it is that review stream wants and what it doesn't. As far as I know, they do accept all reviews as long as they...

sandi109 I just had 4 more of my reviews accepted, 2 at full price and 2 at bulk rate. I had one review rejected so I resubmitted for bulk rate. So far, so good! As far as the missing review, I think I will just leave well enough alone for now. If something else comes...

sandi109 Hi jcj! Congratulations on hearing back from review stream! Doesn't it feel good when you get your first acceptance? It feels great. I still have several reviews pending. It looks like it takes them quite a while to accept submissions, probably 4 or 5 days on...

I just signed up with the Wellness 360 website in a quest to both improve my health and nutrition, and to make a little spare change on the side. I've seen such good reviews of this site, payment proofs, etc. Problem is all those...

sandi109 How long have you been a member? Have you gotten any payments from them in the past? It does seem like a pretty good site, and since I wanted to start eating better and exercising to lose a little weight I thought it seemed like a good idea. I am glad to hear...

sandi109 Thanks Kitty for the suggestion. I have done some research and I hadn't come across peppermint tea as an option. That is good to know about its sedative qualities since I myself suffer insomnia. I might just have to try this out for myself! :) I have given...

sandi109 That's what my dad is trying to do. Cut way back on all the sugary foods he loves. I don't think this has necessarily caused it, but I think it has made it worse. Some people are more sensitive to things than others. He is avoiding caffeine as well including...

sandi109 He is looking for a computer so he can connect online. I think this will be very helpful for him. I am suggesting some social networking sites where he might be able to connect with old friends and people he used to go to school with. I am glad to see that...

sandi109 Thanks so much for the link to that article. I don't think his anxiety is so severe that it would be called a panic attack. He doesn't feel like he is going to die or that the walls are closing in on him. It is more like he has a mind that won't stop. He is...

sandi109 It's funny you bring up chocolate. He is convinced that eating chocolate has a negative effect on him. I have told him that it increases the release of certain chemicals and magnesium that all help to relax a person and elevate their mood. But even though he...

sandi109 That's a great suggestion! I know that I recently saw a program on television that spoke about the great effects of smiling and how making a point to smile often can increase longevity. That it releases endorphins and other chemicals that increase happiness....

sandi109 Don't worry, my dad's seeing a doctor who is assessing what he is going through. The doctor only sees prescription medicine as a solution though. I think there are other routes to explore first or at least in addition. Everyone here on Mylot is really helping...

sandi109 I have heard this too. I am going to explore this further to see what it entails. I think it has something to do with our posture as well. My dad has a bad back so these kinds of exercises could be really beneficial. I am sure his tight back isn't helping what...

sandi109 You are so right. My dad's never had any problems opening up and talking about his feelings though. In many ways, my dad's life has always been an open book. This can be good. I know I hold way too much inside which isn't healthy. I know me, my mom and my...

sandi109 I am fully aware of this. I know that my dad has ended an important phase in his life and he is starting to feel his mortality. His serious anxiety didn't start till the day of Ted Kennedy's funeral. I think it scared him. Then he started thinking about all...
