Nah, tea tree is great for irritations and skin issues down there. But not straight oil. Mixed into a lotion base, or diluted with plenty of warm water as a splash or compress. Thursday Plantation has some terrific products that won’t burn you. Tingle, yes. But that feeling only lasts a few seconds.

It sounds like you know you have some progress to make, which is honestly a huge step. Speaking from my own experience, you might benefit from taking a while (a year or even more) away from dating, and instead focusing on your thinking patterns, which ones are unhealthy, and how you can retrain your brain to have healthier ones. For instance, if some things are quick to trigger jealousy in you, work on immediately identifying that and processing that feeling quickly, channeling it into something more actionable. In time, your initial response to those triggers won’t be as strong. This is a big part of how I approach personal growth, and after a relationship that kind of crashed and burned, I spent 3 years heavily focusing on this, and my relationships since have been so much more stable.

I wish you the best!

>The Karen’s are uniting. There are like 50 different instructions on the bottle and typically washing yourself is pretty cut an dry. I don’t think most people feel the need to read instructions when they buy a new body wash. Just turns out dr bronners is different. She made a mistake that was understandable and it was really only compounded because of her razor burn. But I guess on some level we all know that people like you only come to Reddit for the heady sense of smug self satisfaction and superiority that you can only achieve by pointing out another persons faults and follies.

Gotta be honest, if I'm gonna rub a chemical all over my body, I read the instructions first. Even on soap, even on shampoo.
