>>670166this is a really weird fix ive done before, and depending on what kind of migraines you get it may or not work.
> When caffeine is added to the combination of acetaminophen and aspirin, the pain relieving effect is increased by 40%.(
https://headaches.org/2019/02/24/does-caffeine-trigger-or-treat-headaches/)
medications for migraines often include caffeine, for any warnings of how you can use this method in moderation I'd suggest researching this. It personally worked for me.
> Vincent Martin, co-director of the Headache and Facial Pain Center at UC Gardner Neuroscience Institute, said that people with a history of migraines should limit caffeine intake to no more than 400 mg daily.(
https://www.healthline.com/health/migraine/caffeine-migraine#is-it-safe)
Stay within the 100-200mg range.
100mg is half a monster energy can for reference. 200mg is half a cup of coffee.

I am so tired of being gaslighted and dismissed whenever I try and speak up about my past abusive relationship. Even people who know my ex and know he's an asshole do this. It boggles my fucking mind. It's hard not to be paranoid that there's just something about me as a person, or something about my personality that makes people assume I'm either exaggerating things, or that I'm just not the type of person gets abused. I've been told every shitty insensitive thing in the book whenever I speak up about it. "It sounds like you two just weren't compatible," "you guys will smooth things over and go back to being great friends in no time," "you shouldn't let someone else affect you so deeply," "maybe you should have just accepted him for who he was and tried to change your own attitude," "you shouldn't be so hateful," "have you tried practicing gratitude?" or anything to the affect of "pull yourself up by your bootstraps and get over." Eat shit. It's not exactly easy to leave someone when they isolate you from your friends and family, coerce you into moving halfway across the country where you don't know anyone and have to depend on them almost entirely, and spend the next six years emotionally abusing you so severely on a daily basis that you become a literal shell of a person and no longer know up from down. Like, yes, he doesn't have this amount of power over me anymore, but it still hurts. This isn't the kind of thing you just "get over." This asshole preyed on me and nothing I did was going to change things. Nothing is going to change the fact that this happened to me and that I have literal PTSD as a result of it. Like, do I really need a doctor's note stating this in order to get a fucking ounce of sympathy from people who are supposedly my friends?

All of which have witnessed my panic attacks at banging on the door, fireworks and blocked calls, which all ended in me being a blubbering crying mess and hiding beside the bed. Thankfully I've had a lot of therapy and time and beefed up on security. But it still amazed me the people that would laugh or play it off when I told them "Yes my ex held a gun to my chest and threatened to kill us both" as if it's so hard to believe that could happen to me.
So I stopped telling people. What are they gonna do for us anyway? They wouldn't understand unless it happened to them.

Jesus, I'm so sorry anon. That makes me feel even worse about my own prospects, considering my ex never physically harmed me or threatened to. My relationship was just very severely emotionally and financially
abusive, which are forms of abuse that apparently don't even exist according to the general public.
I'm glad your current bf and his family at least believe you. My bf does, but his family doesn't. They're actually some of the people I was talking about in my post who are saying shitty things/assuming things weren't that bad and I just need to stop letting it affect me so heavily. It makes me scared that he's going to stop believing me at some point too, since nobody else in our support circle does.
No. 670281
>>670264This is so dumb. Like, I get the idea of not letting the
abuser see that they've affected you (ie: "grey rocking") if you're still in contact with them for any reason, because many of them do get off on knowing that they've hurt you, but the idea that someone can just let something stop affecting them, or that the fact that they're still hurting means they've somehow failed in their recovery, is fucking ludicrous and short-sighted. That's not how trauma works.
No. 670294

trigger me, because I pretty much exclusively only trust people who have been through similarly
abusive relationships at this point.

I wonder if there's going to be a generation of boys raised to do chores correctly like girls are just because of the bullshit their mothers in my generation experienced from picking up after men?
I hate that while my boyfriend generally keeps up with chores without me having to ask, he still fucking sucks at doing them. Not even because he's doing it on purpose, he just doesn't realize methodology and details cause he's never been conditioned and trained for it. Because he wasn't raised being nagged, shamed, guilted, and disciplined for not doing chores correctly like I was. For example he's good about doing dishes and throwing out the nasty shit in the drain, but terrible at loading the dishwasher and skipping over real nasty stuff if he's gotta manually wash a pan.
My dad is even worse. My dad just doesn't do any chores period and feels he doesn't have to because he works (as if women don't). My retarded ass pickme mother acted like his maid for years and never demanded domestic shit from him. What little she did was always met with his indignation, and he'd often stall out until she did it anyway. Meanwhile she screamed and yelled at me to do his adult's share of the work cause I was the other female in the house when we all lived together. I hate her, and I hate how I was her backup maid and therapist for years for hearing her bitch to me about this useless man without ever making ultimatums for him or just leaving him altogether. Some fucking good that did us all! It's poetic justice that he wound up cheating on her with "fun" younger women, because obviously it doesn't pay to be a pandering miserable cunt that grooms her daughter into almost being the same way because she's too scared to set men straight.
I swear if I ever had a child and it was a boy I'd make his ass fucking useful and make sure he can scrub a god damn pot. If he turned out straight and treated his girlfriends shitty, I'd make him ashamed of himself. If my husband doesn't do a chore then I'm not gonna pick up his slack. And if the useless bastard continues then I'd fucking leave him. Of course men from generations past never changed cause there were never any consequences.

I'm posting anonymously on a vent thread about a thing I was pissed off about in the moment. I'm not "baiting" people into responding and wasn't even necessarily expecting anyone to respond.
>>670487I'm not sure tbh. As long as they don't make their feelings the focus of their supposed support and actually acknowledge that I'm in pain, I'd probably feel better. I very rarely even tell people I'm close with that I have suicidal thoughts because I'm pretty sure they either would be too uncomfortable to react at all, or would somehow spin it to put the focus on them. I get suicidal usually if I'm isolated for too long and not speaking to anyone, and I have a hard time reaching out to people. Someone offering to spend some time with me would probably make me feel better than any words could.
No. 670502
>>670454Not a guilt trip, this is fact. People don't grieve for a month then move on. Especially after suicide. Have you ever lost anyone? Did you think about them for a month and then stopped thinking about them?
At the point of suicide, a person doesn't gaf how their closest friend or family would feel. The pain's so bad you don't think. You just do it. It's not selfish, it's pain that can no longer be tolerated. I get it.
Have you ever tried to deal with your trauma? Have you spoken to professionals? Seen a psychiatrist? Therapist? They don't cure your memories but they help find ways to work through how it's scarred you.
Okay, you just posted this:
>I get suicidal usually if I'm isolated for too long and not speaking to anyone, and I have a hard time reaching out to people. Someone offering to spend some time with me would probably make me feel better than any words could.The upside of being in the system for YEARS is that most of my friends have mental illness and it's easy to open up and tell them how shitty I'm feeling. Really, you need to talk about it or post on a MH forum. Damn, I'd give you my email address if you needed to talk. People care and you'd be surprised once you open up that the person you confide it experiences the same feelings. Yeah, sometimes they want to do a one-upmanship for really fucked reasons, but you just don't speak to them about it again!
Soz if this is long winded and makes no sense. It's almost 4am. Point is, it's not bs that suicide doesn't leave those left behind devastated. It does.

We have a second lockdown in my country, I live with my family because I was abroad before and had to come back after I got really sick for two months and couldn't even go to the doctor because they didn't want to test anyone where I was. It took me months to recover by myself and then I had to get a shitty job I'm overqualified for. Now my family won't stop inviting other family members we don't live with or my little sister's bf despite the lockdown and the fact that it's forbidden.
I told my sister and my mother about it and that it could be dangerous, I don't want to get sick again right after getting my shitty job and they're more fragile than I am and now they're making fun of me saying that they're at THEIR home so they do whatever THEY want, and they legit think I'm severely depressed and I'm a hypochondriac. Even though I was actually sick for two months and had to ruin my plans just to come back home because they all promised they'll be careful and our home will be safe. Fuck them. If they die they die, I'm not calling an ambulance for them.
I don't even get why my retarded sister thinks the lockdown is affecting me that much since I've always been a turbo shut-in while she feels the need to invite her bf to eat fast food of all things. She's so retarded that despite saying I was coming back to our country to JUST recover after making sure I wasn't contagious and to stay safe at home, she still thinks I came back because I had no money left.

During lockdown she's been fall-over drunk from 11am, everyone who knows her knows she's been getting worse but she refuses to get treatment (she had a horrid time in rehab for drugs in her early 20s, I think it tainted the place for her). She pushes away everyone except me, and she clings to me relentlessly when she's coherent enough to do so.
I gave her the ultimatum of if she doesn't get sober, I can't visit her when I'm moved out, because it hurts too much to see her killing herself like this. She seemed to take me seriously, apparently she's been in denial that I've noticed her being drunk which is ludicrous but I guess she had to cope somehow.
Most of the people she interacts with are addicts she knows or addicts she sells to (she doesn't do drugs much any more, but her ex is a dealer and her only real sort of friend, so). I don't know how she'll succeed in getting sober with a social group like that, but I also don't know how to get a woman in her mid-50s a brand new group of friends during a national lockdown, really. She's very artistic, so I might try and get her to join an art club type thing (or even teach one!), but… I guess I'm keeping my expectations low so I don't feel totally crushed if she fails again.

Uh I feel weird posting abt this here but I don't really want to talk to anyone irl so here goes.
Abt a week ago I was at a party and I got pretty drunk. This guy I kind of knew was there, and he ended up coming back to mine. We drank some more, and he kept trying to get me to sleep with him and wouldn't stop going on about it. Eventually I decided I might as well, but he was too drunk to get it up lmao. We ended up just kissing, but he kept trying to choke me. I had to tell him several times to stop, and he only did bc I told him some pretty serious stuff abt my past related to it.
At the time I didn't rly think anything of it, and I saw him a few times after (coincidentally, bc we live pretty close to eachother).
Now though the thought of everything makes me kind of uncomfortable. I don't really know what to think of it all :(

My friend's boyfriend is literally mourning a dead rapper who is said to be a serial killer, like seriously in bed sad as fuck. He missed work, he's writing long ass love letter & shit, even implied HE may find out a way to get the person who killed the dude.
Yet when my friend's dad died he was barely there for her, then whenever his friend call he'll drop anything he's doing, when his girlfriend? 5/10 he may do it.
When a trans women exposed his friend online he was about to beat the fuck out of him for "Disrespecting" his friend, saying it wasn't the truth.
Yet, when some dude from my friend's job was starting rumors because my friend turned him down, he did nothing.
I know this guy is just a shitty boyfriend, but it's something i've been noticing a lot. Straight men act like fucking groupies to each other, I won't even call it gay because gay men don't even share that deep unconditional love that some straight men share with their friends.

>>671557Not Italian but my family is the same. My grandma lived through the war and always insists that everyone eats enormous portions of food otherwise they’ll get too skinny. All but a few of her descendants are morbidly obese and even people on the low end of obesity are “skinny” to her. Every time she sees me she tells me I’m sickly thin and about to keel over. She used to pinch me really hard and say that she could feel my bones.
It’s really sad and understandable in a way, but so many of her own children are disabled due to obesity-related conditions so you’d think she would eventually realise there’s a healthy middle ground and eating yourself into a wheelchair isn’t the answer.

It's a stupid thing to care about but it's so annoying to see girls like sugarf4iry from insta egirls thread on /snow just waste their youth away to pander to degenerates. Physical beauty is not all but it still is a huge advantage to have in the so called "real life", and she - and many other girls like her - could go out there, build a legit career and use their attractivenes networking with people that matter instead; and not even in a "sleep your way to the top" way, but just making friends and connections as it's just a fact that a lot of people are more likely to want to interact with attractive men and women as opposed to unattractive ones.

It's not rare at all that people end up doing great things in their lives and achieve success and happiness even after struggling with major obstacles through their twenties and beyond. With age comes wisdom and prioritization skills, a better ability to cope with mental issues, a stability that lets you flourish even if you feel like you wasted a lot of time.

My mom has scoliosis, chronic pain, untreated depression/ocd, obesity, a big smoking addiction, is probably malnourished, is losing movility and doesn't want help
And I try to be there for her as much as she lets me but she doesn't really let me. She wants to do everything alone and still treats me like a child. She feels like she wants to die soon too, she's almost 60 and didn't want to live this long. One time she even told me she "learnt to be suicidal" from me attempting to kill myself multiple times as a teen.
I try to be a good kind daughter but idk, there's days when her being super sick is grating to me. And I can't just say this to anyone because they wouldn't understand, she's always suffering and seeing her suffering makes me anxious. She always has something to complain about too, be politics, her job as a teacher, her coworkers, politicians, anything she sees on tv, etc.
It's hard to live with sick parents. My dad was super sick too and died 4 years ago after 8+ years of him needing special medical care (complicated diabetes, then dialysis). He was abusive but like, still, I felt bad for him at the time.
Having two sick parents as a teen and young adult isn't fun. Please if your parents are healthy and treat you well, please, try appreciate them.

I know I can't fully trust the numbers, but do they work as an approximation? Like, if I count calories, fast and see the number going down week by week, should I take it into stock, or is it all pointless? If I get three specific numbers consistently, should I just estimate my weight as being somewhere in the middle, or take the lowest one?

Today we were talking and he asked me a question, I answered and he proceeded to ignore what I said and talked about himself relating to the question he asked, well okay maybe it was something he wanted to talk about. Then after he is done asks a question again, I answer it and my answer is ignored again so he can tell a long story answering his question. I am really stupid, yes, because I got annoyed. I feel like I am only there for him to talk at, not talk to. It's not only this incident. Like I ask him about himself, questions and stuff and he never bothers to ask how I've been or anything.

Admittedly a little bothered that my bf didn't want to start a guild with me in FFXIV. The truth is we used to be on a discord server with a bunch of people. He knew them for a few years. I joined and it was awesome, but at the same time I never fit in and since I was a newb at the game, I couldn't really do all the fun stuff with them. He hasn't played with them in 2 years and when we just started back up again, I got excited with the idea of making our own Guild but he declined and said he wanted to stick in that group. For fucking what? you havent played with them in 2 years and you never even talk to them anymore or chat with them…. what would be the point? they havent reached out to you…
at the same time, I guess I get it. if he left there could probably be some tension there and he might still want to play with them. I'm just a little sad. I stopped playing this game because I felt lonely, he was always playing with them and I just dont have a high enough level to play with them. I'm at least 3 expansion packs behind everyone. Now I feel the same way, lonely. I don't even really want to play with him anymore because he chose ppl he hasn't talked to in years over me. I get that he has fun memories with them though. guess i'm a little conflicted.
Still, sucks. I joined a fun FC to spite him and told him he's dead to me, game wise (jokingly) but I'm still a lil sad

I hate "reassure your friends when they ask uwu" culture. Yes, when a friend is having a rough time, reassure them that you're there and that you love them, but if they're constantly asking if they're annoying you, apologizing for existing, or expecting to have access to you 24/7 otherwise you must hate them, it is fucking exhausting. No, I generally don't think you're annoying otherwise we wouldn't be friends, but as soon as you ask, that changes. I don't know why so many people are like this nowadays.

This has been discussed a million times on this site, and its autistic of me to bring it up again. But it fills me up with rage every time I see someone get mad over BL "misrepresenting gay relationships~" It maybe just me, because I see it everywhere online. Why can't they let women enjoy harmless things like these? All I wanted to do was see some cute animu bishies together and I suddenly see stupid articles about how awwwful it is for this genre to misrepresent gay relationships!!! and how it should be corrected so gay men will rElAtE better!!! It's just oooh sooo terrible!!! How daaare women enjoy these things!??? How daaare they fetishize US???
It just makes me so mad. There are worse things happening to women everyday and they wouldn't let us have this one thing but all I see are retarded articles like those. Why won't the world let women enjoy harmless things? It's probably cos I'm on my period but seeing another one of those triggered me and I just had to let out my rage.

My boss gave me the silent treatment all day yesterday after I openly disagreed with him and called him out on providing incorrect information during a morning meeting. Despite one instance when he was trying to make a show out of attempting to ask my coworkers for help with things that are in my department (so he only got them looking all ??? as a response so he just quietly shuffled back to his office) it was honestly the calmest and most relaxing day we've had in the office since he started.
He has been acting like a fat bully ever since he started four months ago, the others hate him and occasionally dares to say no to him but I am the only one willing to argue back or put my foot down when he is being an ass.

No. 673853
>>673782That's what you get for having the society consistently shaming women for harboring interests men don't find attractive. Starting from boy bands to YA fiction, everything (especially young) women consume is relentlessly nitpicked, hated, policed and overanalyzed while young men get to keep their absolute trash of entertainment and nobody minds.
In the case of BL fujos have always been looked down upon but now it's just made woke like everything else that has to do something with hating women or their sexual autonomy. Now it's just 10 times worse than before when it was mostly homophobic dudebros going "eeeww homos are nasty", now we have young girls trooning out after swallowing these narrative pills.
>Hmm, I really like this genre made by women for women that allows me to explore my sexuality in a safe environment without my gender being objectified or sexualized, instead replaced by characters that follow the concept of men but have a female-coded nature so there's a right amount of detachment from my own persona. But I'm not an evil fetishizing straight racist Karen fujoshi, so this must mean I'm really a gay man who's also obligated to shame all the other fujos to keep my head above the water! What's really frustrating is that during the decades BL advanced from the "seme meets uke" setting to become a large genre with complex stories and character types yet people still judge it based on tired stereotypes. Meanwhile yuri is still about cute high school girls doing cute things and playfully groping each other but for some mysterious reason it's never targeted as hard.
It's because it's predominantly enjoyed by men.Like other anons said, I have never in my life seen a cis gay man give a fuck about the BL discourse. The gay men (not Aidens) I know are the thirstiest fucking fudanshis I've ever met and like their garbage anime porn even more degenerate than I do.

>>673832Sort of, but he would get in trouble with the union for a number of reasons if he did and the company is already bleeding employees at the moment because of his behavior and dishonesty. I'm already looking for a new job anyway and have a couple of interviews lined up, of course it is not a guarantee that I'll get those though (so wish me luck).
Some employees have started speculating that he might be trying to push us that have been in the company for a long time to quit by treating us like shit, putting three times as much pressure on us until we pretty much break mentally, or trying to push shit jobs at ungodly hours without any warnings. It's easier to have us go by ourselves than getting into even more trouble with the union than the company already is at the moment, and thus also gives them a good reason to hire people that don't know better and agree to lower pay.
The whole company went to shit after they kicked the old boss, while he admittedly was pretty bad at making good economic deals he was still someone that would make you aware of your worth in the company and made everyone feel like a team. Now we don't even have time to eat lunch and watch the boss go out for a 1-hour lunch with his wife.

It baffles me because, so many of us were raised by single mothers. How can you feel like your own mother made bad decisions because your dad didn't stick around? And then these boys grow up to become deadbeat daddies themselves knowing how much their mothers struggled. A never-ending cycle.
I also think part of this has to do with mothers coddling their sons and encouraging them to be reckless, while the girls are kept on a tight leash and expected to pick up their slack.

If the kid turns out crazy, you can guarantee the wiki page for him and his psychotic rampage are going to include something about how his mom didn't love him enough kek.
There's no way to escape the stigma. If you're a single mom, you're a burden on society damaging your children. If you have an abortion, you're a baby killer. If you don't have kids, you're selfish.

Deciding to heal.. is when shit hits the fan tbh. Then the timeframe for healing is years with no end point because it's never fully resolved.
You're certainly not garbage. There are men out there who specifically target abused women to date and take advantage of and those are garbage people. You're going through all these emotions in response to seeing them in pain… you're a decent person. You'll probably ideally need some therapy yourself when you move on.

It's not driving us apart by any means, but it hurts to watch. It affects our love life, it leads to seemingly random panic attacks and depressive episodes, there's memory gaps,
triggers that we don't even realize are
triggers until it's too late. I can't help but feel like a failure for not helping her more.

>>674074I know what you mean by it hurting to watch. I think the most heartbreaking thing was seeing the person I love crying and shaking, and instinctively going to touch his arm to provide some comfort, but being told to please not to, not right now.
My bf is in therapy atm, and it seems to be helping. It took both of us reaching our breaking point for him to realize that if he didn't do something I would have to leave for my own sake. If it gets that bad with your s/o, I think it's important to remember that you can encourage someone to get help, but you can't force them. And when reading about this kind of trauma specifically, advice I found mentioned the importance of not pushing. I think what that means is, if you're at your breaking point it's fine to tell your s/o that if they don't get help you can't stay. But you have to mean it, if they're not ready or willing then you can't force it, and have to be ready to actually end things for your own sake. Idk if that helps, hopefully other anon can give you better advice

>>674047I went through this too. I feel like there aren’t as many resources for partners of people who have been sexually assaulted, because rightly the focus is often on them healing the trauma. But it
does affect the partner as well, and it can be super confusing and difficult to know how to be there for them and to continually remind yourself that their reactions aren’t a reflection of you. You end up feeling so unloved and unimportant. Not to mention the guilt for wanting to be sexual with them without retraumatizing them, and never wanting to remind them of what they’ve been through.
Everyone heals on their own time obviously, but I can at least say that for us, sex felt good and normal within a year and a half. It’s not a long time in the scheme of things but it felt pretty miserable getting through it.

>>674030Hi, I just wanted to share a trick that helped me. If you want to be employed no matter the circumstances.
Find an job that you can do, preferably a little bit skilled because obviously entry level are the most competitive. If it's posted by a recruitment agency it'll usually let you know who's responsible for it. Then come up with a question to ask them that's not too stupid. Because at that point you've already made more effort than most. They'll look at your resume, and chances are they'll forward you to the company as a candidate of interest. I got a decent job that way despite no experience or connections because I asked the recruiter a direct, technical question. It sucks because when you don't have those it's so, so hard to get into something.
I'm giving you this advice as someone who had long bouts of inactivity because I got too in my head about applying for jobs, would apply to about 10 in a day then nothing for a month. I agree with the others that 4 in 2 months isn't much, but I really get how daunting it is for someone who just doesn't have that confidence built up.
It's funny with entry level jobs, because it is just a numbers game. Earlier in my life I had to apply to 7 jobs daily, then eventually I guess I just applied to the right place and they called me in and I signed the contract more or less without questioning. It sucks because you don't know what those places are, but they're out there. Just needs to be the right time and place. Good luck.

I lost my best friend to this. She went on hormones, chopped off her breasts, and the last time she posted on social media she said she had detransitioned but that she would have to live with the effects of the hormones and mutilation forever. There's nothing you can do for them though, I had to leave my best friend because I knew I couldn't support her decision and I knew she would get angry at me if I tried to change her mind. As much as it hurts, you just have to let them make their own mistakes and distance yourself from them for your own mental health.

Celebrate Christmas if you want anon. Yes, it's a religious holiday, but it's also a holiday to enjoy spending time with the people you love. Holidays can have different meanings to everyone. What's sad about that? Besides, if you weren't celebrating Christmas then what else would you even do that day? Even if you do stay at home by yourself, not doing anything special just sounds so depressing.

My mom always threatened to kill herself when I talked about wanting to move out.
She refused to teach me to drive, my stepdad couldn't, we lived so far in the country, we literally did not have neighbors.
I had no friends, my mom always told me no one else's parents loved them, and at sleepovers, all of the children were getting raped one at a time, and none of them new better and that's why they kept going back.
She told me if I ever left her, I would be stolen, raped, and murdered.
Every time I tried to move out, she would threaten to kill herself.
She has gotten crazier and crazier over time.
She had a hysterectomy two years ago and ever since, she's been using it to act even more outrageous.
She's always flapped her hands and screamed and said wildly inappropriate shit, but now it's just fucking constant, it is like living with a furious special needs child.
I am now the biggest loser piece of shit in the world.
I had to quit my glorious job at del taco because my doctors couldn't figure out if I had a brain tumor or if my thyroid problem I can't get anyone to treat has finally gotten out of hand.
I had to quit because I was getting sicker and sicker, I have diabetes too, and my toes had started goign numb and I had some pretty big blind spots in my vision, and my endocrinologist said if I don;t want shit to keep getting worse, I had to get rid of stress.
I knew I couldn't move out. I tried to earlier that year and my mom was screaming that she would kill herself and it was my fault and I don't actually love her and I would leave her alone with my stepdad.
So I quite my job. I never saved any money anyway because she kept taking more the more I made, so I gave up.
This year has been good for me, I've been trapped with her for over a year and now I know that even if every horrible thing she says is true and happens, the other option is to die helpless crushed beneath her.
I don't know what to do now, I won't be bale to get a license until next october because they changed it since I was in high school, you have to have the permit for a full year now
And there's a global pandemic, and I'm not sure which job is least dangerous for a sick piece of shit like me, and who would even take me with a gap in my work history, which was taken for illness, and a GED
I need to get out of here so badly.
I am such a piece of shit.
I have to get out of here.

>>674816Ugh, he sounds just like me, anon. I'm so sorry you're dealing with that. Chances are that he knows exactly what is wrong and is probably literally not able to stop in the mental sense. I'm certain there's something changed emotionally, there's probably some sort of comfort in him eating the way he does that he enjoys.
I know in this situation, the only person that can help the fatso IS the fatso
kinda speaking to myself here, but what are some ways you can help? Here are some ways that I think my boyfriend helps me to be more conscience of what I eat and how much I eat: he suggests cooking more, he makes comments about me spoiling my appetite before dinner and gets me to agree that I don't want to spoil my appetite, suggests snacks I could eat, keeps me distracted by saying he's not hungry yet, etc.
I'm not saying at all that you need to do those things, but they COULD help him. Really though, it is all up to him. for the past few weeks i have been telling myself "today is the day I eat less" and every time, I fail.
My last super suggestion would be to get a digital scale that links to an app. I got one called Renpho and it was like 30 bucks? Maybe? And it links to your phone, gives you a full body scan (allegedly) and tells your your daily weight fluctuations. It has REALLY helped me. I suggest getting one like that and having him SEE the numbers for himself. Because when I saw the numbers, I lost 10 pounds because it's
gratifying to see the numbers dwindle every day and disappointing to see them go up. Everybody always says "oh blah blah blah you shouldnt be obsessed with the numbers". Well the truth is, being conscience (not obsessed) with the numbers is one of the best ways to actually think about weight loss for the better.
(breathes) sorry for the blog
No. 674837
>>674816Step one would be being honest with him. If the weight gain isn't affecting your attraction to him at the moment then fine, but you should make a list of how the weight gain seems to have affected and altered his behaviors and overall health.
Sometimes people who struggle with weight assume that others are only concerned for selfish and shallow reasons. Seeing the changes here and there laid out in plain writing can be a serious wake up call for someone who either didn't notice gradually or is in denial.
Imagine the impact of "look how this weight is changing you" versus "look how this weight makes you unattractive." It's a big deal.

>>674816If his family is fat then he's probably going to get fat too, anon. I know people can change with a lot of willpower but it usually comes after a scare and a genuine want to change.
Realistically, why would your bf want to change right now? He likes eating to excess and it's clearly not affecting him in a way that matters to him - he's still getting fed, fucked, and financed.
I think decide how much of a deal-breaker him getting fat and unhealthy is to you and tailor your approach accordingly. Be blunt.
For example, if he can't perform because he's too out of shape, then he needs to get back in shape before you let him near you again, that sort of thing. Presumably you take care of yourself, so demand the same of him. Get into a moid mindset.
You can try the whole "let's exercise together!" or "let's go keto together!" thing but truthfully it won't stick unless he's personally committed to it.

I really don't want my bf to bring his maladapted cat with him when we move in together. I wish he would just leave the cat with his ex like they're doing with the other (ofc the better behaved and socialized) cat.
The way he talks about the cat fills me with dread that I'm going to be cleaning up and caring after a cat that's never going to display affection and who I didn't even get a say in having. He himself doesn't even like the cat all that much, and says that the cat will be scared of and not like me. Which makes me sad cause animals tend to like me. I worry cause even though I brought up my preference, he says his ex has been withdrawing from the cat cause she's assuming he's gonna take it. Apparently she had some lame cop out about not being able to afford the second cat even though that's bullshit. She's constantly at their old apartment where the cats are, they are her cats, she's just too guilty to adopt the cat out and wants to push it on us rather than admit she raised a cat she doesn't like.
I wanted to adopt a cat when we moved into our place. I haven't had a cat in over a decade since mine died, and my abusive ex threatened to kill me over the cat that I adopted and paid everything for–but even then I didn't get to pick that cat.
I feel sorry for the cat but I'm sick of being expected to be selfless for other people when all I want is a pet that I got to choose. Whose responsibilities of care I actually signed up for because I picked a cat that I liked and got to bond with. I'm so sick of having my choices dictated and predestined. It's not fair. My bf's dumbass solution is to have two cats. Except we're gonna be living in a small ass apartment where two cats will be disgusting and a nightmare to keep clean, and that's even if the cat I adopt would get along with his reclusive hellcat. Maybe if we had a house, but he won't get his shit together for that anytime soon. I know this doesn't seem like a big issue but it is to me, and I want to fucking lose it cause I feel my happiness is being sabotaged before I even get a chance.

you are forcing yourself to do something you already know you will be unhappy with. why are you making yourself suffer? if your boyfriend is not compromising for you, why are you compromising for him? does he not have friends or family that would take in his cat? if the cats are bonded, the ex should really be taking both or neither. you can be in control of how this situation plays out by being steadfast in your choices.

well I feel like shit, this entire week has felt like a fucking dissociation. I can't tell whether it's my period or actually me becoming a fatty, I've seemingly gained a couple pounds but I feel like a swollen and bloated fuck, like I've gained twenty in my abdomen and my thighs are rubbing together. Is the body dysmorphia back in full swing? Fuck if I know, I'm supposed to be starting new birth control after this cycle hoping it'll help my ungodly back acne. Watched a movie that I wasn't super into with friends and kept talking the whole time, only paid attention because my celebrity crush was in it. I hated the way he was styled but he's literally one of the few things that makes me happy besides my friends. Work has been breaking my back and I feel like I keep having heavy headache spell that lead to me functioning slower and slower. My coworker took over a task for me when I told her I had a blaring migraine and I felt so bad seeing her help me. Nobody seems to really care and I don't care enough to find out what the problem is. I feel like I'm being dragged along by a hair and losing my mind, when nothings changed in my life. I just want to fuck, lose my virginity, then die at this point, living is so monotonous, everything is pointless. My family doesn't care about me and I don't have enough friends to warrant saving my existence ig. I'm at the passive "please let me manifest and get what I want and then I can die happy and sooner rather than later" stage of quarantine acceptance because I would be surprised if I could hold out till February or March if not later for a vaccine without a mental episode or relapse, I'm going to be at the end of my rope

At the same time I think it's almost a necessary process that yeah teens whine about relatively small problems and then grow into adults with 100 times more stress on their plate and it eventually hits you how much you complained during relatively carefree times of your life. Life throws worse things at you and it gives you perspective that you kinda have to learn through lived experience.

My boyfriend is so clingy and useless, it's getting really annoying.
Even when we're around other people he follows me around like a puppy, whenever I ask him what he wants to do together he always says "I don't know" and just watches me while I do my chores or whatever when I get tired of waiting around for an answer. He doesn't have interests or opinions of his own and just copies whatever he thinks will make him look cool from the internet, or parrots whatever he hears some MGTOW-tier incel say. For this reason he thinks I'm sooooo smart, me, a dumb fucking bitch who doesn't even know what she's saying most of the time.
In the morning he always wants to cuddle, even when it's too warm, and he always pulls me back into bed when I want to get up and be productive. When I don't get up on time he'll start rubbing his dick on my ass in hopes of waking me up with sex even though I told him I don't like it and his breath smells in the morning which turns me off.
He always wants to stay at my place even though there's nothing for him to do here, I live in a tiny studio that's too cramped even for me and I can't study, work or exercise with him around and then I also have to sit around since I can't do my usual stuff.
When I go to the bathroom he sometimes likes to ask me things through the door as I'm taking a shit, I've told him multiple times not to do it and that it's too awkward but he just says 'I dont mind :)' and does it anyway. Plus whenever he's idle with nothing to do he whistles and snaps his fingers and it's driving me fucking nuts.
I just want him out of my apartment, but when I tell him to go home he'll start moping and sadposting how he feels useless and lonely and I'll have to console him and tell him he's handsome and nice. Manchild.
Whenever I feel bad he never comes to console me but instead offers shitty backhanded 'advice' that just makes me feel worse. He also loves to 'listen to my problems' and then only respond with 'hmmmm' and a long stare before turning around to whatever he was doing at the time.
I can't wait to break up with him (after Christmas, he got me an expensive present) but until then I'll just have to seethe quietly. Bet he'll call me an evil bitch and tell his mommy all about what a good doting boyfriend he's been while painting me as a manipulative whore who was just in it because he's a rich, spoiled mama's boy. Must be nice to have everything and be told you're perfect and can do no wrong your whole life.

The sooner Christmas comes, the lonelier I feel.
I am half of the world away from my family, and its my first year of actually living without them being around. No matter how good relationships I have with my s/o's parents, I still obviously know thaf I will not be considered something as close as an actual family member to them anytime soon, after all I am only his wife. I always do my best to make sure everythings okay, I clean our house on daily basics no matter of how tired I feel (I am the only one who does that), taking care of clothes, while also always making sure his wonderful family knows that I am there for them, so whenever they need help with something, his mother always shyly asks to. But there is still one family member who can't stand me, even though i did nothing wrong. They hate me because they are a hysterical, spoiled person who is about to reach 30s that never had a job in their life. They always make sure I will feel as lonely as possible whenever they are on a meetup with us. They always throw tantrums and talk pasive aggressively towards me. It makes me feel horrible all the time because I cannot talk to anyone about it but my own family, to whom I talk only once or twice a week. But it still doesn't feel the same. On top of that my family are having health issues, my sibling needs surgery, along with grandpa and coronavirus in their country is going complete downhill. I also couldn't find any friends IRL because of neverending lockdown, let alone job.
I just feel so tired, I do not even feel like buying any Christmas gifts. I miss when times were simpler, I miss my family. It's funny how much I hate my countrys government, but damn, I miss my home's candies and nice New Years food. It sucks feeling so lonely.

I suspect that my etsy customer is trying to scam me. She ordered something a month ago and although the order should have arrived to her in 3 days(which I told her) she only now decided to contact me(a week after I finally decided to throw out the order number from the post office) that she hasn't received it.
Left a negative review right after sending me the initial message, without giving me the chance to sort anything out and now she proceeds to tell me that she's a single mother of 3 disabled children that just got out of the hospital and that her child spent her birthday money on my order…
like, don't go with all 3 of the sob stories. Choose 1 or else it seems too fake.
Trying to fix it has been so stressful because I don't want to refund the money, as it cost me both time and effort to make the product. But at the same time I know that I sent it out the correct way(checked the address twice and used the office to hand it over at the counter) and the way she's acting is weird, so I'm starting to suspect it's a scam.

>>675479>the fact that she gave a bad rating and that she told such a story is highly suspicious (really, three disabled children?)Exactly! I would 100% understand it if she had messaged me earlier and waited for me to respond(even just 2 hours, so that I could get as much info for her as possible), but then the sob stories just kept coming and she got pretty aggressive with me, with comments like "Shame on you for scamming an autistic child with learning difficulties out of her birthday money, that's so low".
Her account is totally blank, with nothing on it. No picture or anything else, no liked content either. This is what set me off, seeing as how she claims she has bought multiple items from etsy because I suggested for her to doublecheck the address(I print mine out instead of handwriting them for this reason).
She said that she contacted etsy support so we'll have to see what they decide on. All I know is that I'm in the right this time and that she's not even looking for a proper solution(besides getting a refund, of course).

Thankfully there's nothing in the shop that states that I do tracking and I have marked it as not tracked, so at least I didn't lie about it.
>>675503Yeah, I was willing to work with her, but then she started semi-spamming me with messages full of typos, and the initial review just felt forced, if that makes sense. She even lied about me not contacting her, even though I informed her that I sent it off and that it should arrive in 3 days max. I don't think there was anything else I could have done, as I was under the impression that she received it, seeing as she didn't contact me after a month of not receiving it.

From a business perspective I think it's a mistake to guarantee a three day delivery unless she paid for and specified a priority delivery service that can make such promises. Most services I know of currently have delays, and maybe even because of her address it could have taken an extra day or two.
Honestly life happens, and her story could be true. Some people get too caught up in their personal dealings to notice missing packages, and maybe she gave benefit of the doubt for so long due to the mail issues I mentioned.
Did the parcel have tracking? Were you able to verify it had been delivered before you threw the number away?
On orders that go a bit pricey ($100+) it's a good idea to send all tracking and delivery numbers in the message so no one can claim there wasn't an attempt to deliver on your end.

My father depresses me at times because he's so, SO obsessed with people. He wants friends. He wants to "form connections".
He wants me to do the same shit and is always going on and on about how inexperienced and silly I am for not wanting to engage with people unless I absolutely must…because everyone has an important lesson for me to learn or whatever. It's miserably hilarious to me.
See, ALL of his "friends" and "connections" regularly take money from him (despite having more money than he does lol), treat him like shit, don't even like him, and only ever call to complain about their own lives, etc. He's in his mid fifties and should KNOW better but he just fucking doesn't. Or he's so weirdly obsessed with the idea of having a large family and companionship that he'll put up with anyone.
And I've been around for some of these sessions where people just bully him. He always plays the role of clown-fool idiot-bastard so the insults hurt less. I know that's what he's doing, because I used to do it too before growing enough balls to just tell people to fuck off. I have to tell THEM to fuck off then he gets mad at me for saying it. Am I just supposed to stand there and let them talk down to you in your own fucking house? Get real holy shit.

The fact that you've given in so many times makes me sad, as I used to be the same. I can assure you that she will manage on her own. You've given her plenty of opportunities to save up and if she hasn't done it then it's on her. You've already helped her out a bunch.
My mother did the same thing, using my credit card for certain purchases so that it wouldn't show up on her card etc. The fact that you had to literally beg for her to be more considerate of you is insane.
My heart aches for you, especially with your other family members not helping you out.

I am so afraid of checking his social medias wokdering if today is finally the day he decided to take revenge for me blocking him everywhere. He doesn't know why I blocked him, it's because you forced me into sucking you when I really did not want to, and you recorded it when I explicitly said no!!!! I am sure you have shown those pictures and videos to your friends and they all laugjed at my whore self probably but I JUST want peace, some peace for a single day without being riddled with anxiety over this.

>>675849You are right anon, I should try and change my way of looking at it. Like, it was the result of years of bad actions that lead to that moment, I just felt, I still feel, worthless, because I have been fed since I was a child that my only worth is being pure till marriage, it's everywhere, when a woman gets raped, what people say is that her family is now dishounoured, but I got molested for years and years and it stopped when I was 11 but at that point I already felt that all my worth in society has diminished and I can just do whatever and I was so reckless for so many years. I am 19 now, and I am trying to let go of this way of thinking, but it's so hard to do alone, anon. Premarital sex here is illegal I think, and legally the age for marriage is 18 so I'm not sure what I should classify those times I did it with him as. It doesn't matter anyways. But you're right that if he hasn't done anything all this time, he probably won't do it now. I just hope he deleted those files, he didn't show them to his friends.

I found out this month that i was misdiagnosed as autistic and depressed ten years ago. This diagnosis has had a big impact on how doctors have contextualised my symptoms when I came back to say treatments weren't working and has really affected my life. I spent over a decade being fobbed off and not examined properly, taking SSRIs that don't work, and feeling like I am genuinely incurable and that life will always be painful.
I kept my problems to myself and bullied myself into functioning properly, going to uni and work and trying hard, and not talking to people more than necessary so that I didn't overshare or burden them. I stayed away from sex, drugs, and alcohol because I knew they all made me worse. I've gotten pretty far doing this and now I'm doing my PhD and working as a lecturer at 28, but I don't have any close relationships and I don't have any personal joy or happiness. I was only working hard to make sure I didn't end up homeless like my dad. I didn't understand what the point of being alive was.
I got so tired of living like that that I tried to kill myself at the start of October and was found unconscious by a family member who came to the house unexpectedly. I was taken into hospital for a few days for emergency surgery and a blood transfusion. It came as a shock to everybody and I've spent the last six weeks being assessed and medicated and they said I've been historically misdiagnosed and that I actually have bipolar and EUPD. The doctors are now giving me lots of treatment and listening to me and I feel really overwhelmed and emotional.
I'm grateful for the help but I also wonder where I would be if I had been correctly diagnosed and supported back when I first got referred to the mental health services. No wonder life has been fucking horrible and difficult living with unchecked bipolar. Everyone who has worked with me says I'm very strong and resilient and should be proud of what I've accomplished while managing two illnesses alone, but I keep grieving who I could have been with earlier intervention.
I'm also grappling with the new idea that I'm borderline. I'm worried that I'm an intrinsically abusive, manipulative person, so maybe it's just as well I never got very close to anyone. Everything I Google about it is so negative and that's understandable. I've been referred into long-term treatment to fix it, but I am genuinely wondering what the point is. I don't know if I deserve all this help if I want to die anyway.
Sorry for the long post. It's been a lot.

I become irritated and have a visceral reaction when people give advice in the context of religious philosophy. Religion is personal and texts written thousands of years ago have nothing to do with the issues of today in the way people tend to frame the advice. Blind faith in yahweh, god, Jesus, Mohammed etc isn’t going to fix your sons crippling depression Janice, or your financial troubles Gertrude, or your husbands coma Yazmine. What got me today was a youtuber saying “may your heart soften to him as he fellowships with you” (talking about Jesus) and I felt so violated hearing the same bs I had to listen to constantly in the past, like I was the one who needed changing despite being a child. I think I’m definitely traumatized from growing up in a conservative household and being forced into performing a narrow way of thinking lest I be rejected by everyone for it. I can’t help but feel just a little bit of hatred towards organized religion after dealing with the hypocrisy my whole life and getting literally chased around the house with a bible for liking women.

>>676013Nta but I’m from latam too and in order to move out of your country legally you have to have an absurd quantity of money. Sometimes we can’t even apply for a visa because our countries are not even considered to be on the list of countries that can apply for them, so that means entering by investing on something, so you need at least 60k dollars in a bank account so they consider accepting your ass.
Latam is a trap, it’s difficult to create bank accounts outside because most of the times you will get a bunch of buts and ifs from them, but you need the bank account to be able to say “I kind of would like to live here?”.
At the end of the day it’s easier to create your own

My current bf and I sometimes vent to each other about our past relationships. I tend to let him vent more because he had a more serious ex (10 years married) and right now he's dealing with the finalization of their divorce which is coming to a head since they were separated for years. He pushed to finalize recently cause he wants to marry me. I understand why he's frustrated right now and why their relationship is on his mind. Whereas mine were mostly short, I never married. Plus I know men disdain hearing about their gf's past relationships so I tend not to bring it up. The past is so behind me that a part of me feels stupid for bringing it up, but another part wants my bf to know my struggles. Sometimes it just feels nice to commiserate and talk about shitty exes.
So I dated a pretty abusive guy for about 4 months during the lowest time of my life about two years ago. Back then I broke up my 4 year relationship and was so distraught that I rebounded with this lovebomber. This man abused me, financially took advantage of me, the works.
I can't for the life of me remember his name. I remember all the abusive shit he did and I could probably pick his face out from a crowd, but I can't think of his name. Perhaps this is my brain on trauma. Maybe this man was such a fucking monster that my mind zapped his name because it might have lended him some humanity I don't feel he deserves. I don't know, I'm not a psychologist.
Anyway his bullshit came up during a vent because it's kind of a key piece of my timeline between breaking up with my last long term relationship and how I got here now.
My bf thinks it's weird that I don't remember his name, implying that I'm being flippant, but no? Why does it matter if I don't remember an abusive dude's name? I feel like my bf is being insecure and takes it as a sign that I've just been with so many guys to remember this one in specifics. But all it means is that I really hate that man and don't find his name worthy to remember.
I'm going to ask my bf to stop bringing up his ex wife around me from now on. It's not fair that he gets to vent all his emotions, but when I vent mine he's not really hearing me because he's jealous.
Oh and haha I just remembered that dude's name as I typed this up. No wonder I forgot it, it's a stupid name that sounds like a comic book antagonist.

>>676082After focusing on building strength and muscle for a year I decided to lean down over the summer, and did a proper cut. There is a point that everybody will reach eventually when in a caloric deficit, where your body begins to compensate
for further reduction of calories by just lowering your non-exercise activity thermogenesis (NEAT), everything your body does besides exercise, eating, and sleeping. You get into a cycle of chasing this moving goalpost where your caloric intake is already miniscule, but even when you try to lower it you dont lose more weight you just "do less" without realizing (little things like how much you fidget, move around etc), but the worst part is that you are also consuming less basic nutrients, and probably not getting enough protein to maintain lean body mass, so you start to feel awful. This state really can't be maintained.
What I would recommend instead is just eat more in general, lots of veg, and protein until you reach 1.6-1.8g /kg bodyweight, and whatever your coloric intake ends up at, accept that that's what you'll be eating. If you need to lose more weight beyond whatever that puts you at, then introduce a deficit by adding more exercise, not by eating less.

>>676102No worries! Yes, it has stayed off. I find myself not wanting to binge when I take it, which is where a lot of my weight gain occurred. So yeah, I lost my appetite overall for a while and lost, but when it came back, my stomach was a bit shrunk anyways, and I physically wasn't able to eat as much, nor did I mentally feel the need to. I worried when I stopped losing as much weight too, but when I realized I was actually maintaining at a good place, I was really happy with that. I just eat when I'm hungry now–including the odd occasion when I'm ravenous and do want to eat a bunch of food. You won't gain it back all at once, and probably won't snowball back into old habits as long as you're mindful. Take care of yourself pls!!

I hate being a hoarder so much.
I’ve spent so long learning about decluttering and minimalism and I love those ideas. At this point I care about few individual items, but I have a compulsion to retain and grow a hoard. It’s getting so bad I’ll probably end up like pic rel in a few years which scares me as currently the bathroom is fully accessible and I never leave dirty dishes or laundry around. The day I can’t maintain hygiene will be dark.
Therapy fucked me up before (went for different reasons), can’t afford it currently anyway. I’ve had several times I’ve purged a lot of stuff and maintained normality for a few weeks but always end up hoarding again. Fuck my life.

The problem is that after a few weeks, I lose interest entirely or only do it from time to time. I burn myself out, its like I can stay up all day doing that hobbie or reading about it, to the point that I start to go crazy.
I started crochet recently and bought so much yarn and a lot of the needed hooks, did several beanies and practiced some stitches and lost interest (also because it's summer and can't really wear scarfs or hats lol). But at the start I could stay like six straight hours crocheting without realizing.

I hate always being older than everyone.
I was born at the beginning of the year, even as a kid I was the oldest in class and teachers treated me like the class's big sister, while the kids bullied me because I was the smallest and youngest-looking so I never got the advantage of being the older kid people are scared of. I was always expected to be more mature and rise above everything while the teacher ignored the bullying.
Most of my friends are younger than me by 3-4 years now because I went to college later after caring for a sick parent as a teen. People are always surprised to hear it, but now that everyone knows it I'm treated differently.
The youngest girls in the year are telling me what I can and can't wear (apparently I'm too old for Brandy Melville and Ann Taylor is way more age-appropriate, despite being in my mid-20s) and calling me jealous of teen girls when I tell them I'll wear what I like.
Both my exes so far were 2 years younger and it was nbd in the relationship itself, but outside of it people were calling me a cradle snatcher as if I was attracted to pimply teenagers and not guys with beards and forehead wrinkles who just happen to be younger.
I don't know if they genuinely see me as a hag or not but I'm bothered that men can be wear the same Captain America T-shirt ages 4-54 without anyone saying anything and impregnate women 40 years their junior but I get so much shit for having a boyfriend who's just a tiny bit younger.

For all the insidious, pedophilic behavior that's (deservedly) being called out on social media, I made a really sad realization while reading through YouTube comments earlier today. A channel popular among young children recently uploaded a video specific to pet care. Some kid left a comment about how she wishes her dad wouldn't threaten to throw her pets outside all the time, and eventually revealed in a reply that he does this because he gets mad at her for asking to go to the hospital (for what sounds like a concussion). She doesn't phrase it that way though, doesn't say how she hit her head, and actually tries to downplay it as her dad being "not that bad."
How fucking awful, this poor kid is not only being physically harmed, she's being punished for wanting medical attention and is living in fear of losing her pets as well. To make things worse, other children who are completely oblivious reply to her with things like, "Stop making your dad so mad or you'll be killing your pets." This is blatant emotional abuse, I am genuinely afraid for this girl, but what the hell can be done about it? I left a short comment telling her that she was justified to be upset and to talk to another adult she trusts can keep her and her pets safe. But who fucking knows what good that'll do, who fucking knows if this kid has any other adults at all. I dont know where else to talk about this, it is one of the most disturbing things I've ever read

>>676436Honestly anon, I think they’re probably pretty lonely too. Most of their friendships are probably a result of their success, either other influencers wanting to boost their profile or nobodies wanting in. Must be hard to trust anyone, and feel shit that every time you hang out you must be looking your best because there will inevitably be a photoshoot. Then you have people gossiping about you online, even if you’re pretty inoffensive you’ll get many people criticising you and it’s hard not to focus on the negative. Overall, I think it would be really hard not to feel deeply lonely even if you don’t want to acknowledge it.
Just my two cents, probably some of them are really deluded and genuinely feel like gods gift.

>>676353>>676357I have similar boobs and feel shit about them too so I get it anon. But they’re fine, boobs are supposed to look like that. They’re not even saggy, just big (ish) - the only boobs that won’t eventually fall like that are really small ones. You’re a woman, not Barbie.
If you can’t accept that they’re just fine then I think a reduction would be a better option. You can have a lift or implants but it might not work on your body type (research breast roots) or would only be effective for a few years before they sag again. Maybe you’ll grow out of the insecurity when you’re older but it’s not a good sign if you’re already upset by your young, relatively unsaggy boobs. The only way to avoid sagging completely is to reduce them to a small size but you probably don’t want that on a fridge torso.
The best option is to work on your mindset.

I fear that maybe I'm becoming a more annoying and unrelatable person over the years, mainly due to trauma that I don't realize seeping into the way I present my side of things. I know no one likes a victim, but perhaps furthermore I just come off as aggressive and people don't really see reason to empathize with women who express a deal of anger even if it is justified?
I know this is a poor metric to go by, yet I was perusing old vent/advice threads on lolcow from a few years back and I noticed I got a lot more genuine and sympathetic types of replies to my posts back then. Whereas now it seems what I post doesn't get much engagement at all and when it does it's usually an attempt by anon to shitpost me as if they have a problem with what I talked about. Although I won't discount one or two good egg anons who do try. I can either believe lc userbase left or changed that drastically, or maybe it's just me. I admit my problems are a bit more bitter and jaded so maybe everyone just has too much empathy fatigue anymore, and my issues are likely exhausting, or maybe they just make me an easy target to berate sometimes.
Combined with everything else taking a nosedive in my life, even if it's laughably small like a lack of engagement during my interneting, it truly feels like death by a thousand little cuts. I barely exist, and it makes me want to avoid the internet altogether just so I don't have to be reminded of how much I don't belong even in unconventional spaces.

He had sex of questionable consent with a girl he used to know. She came to him drunk and made passes at him, but when they started having sex she was clearly upset. She didn't verbally tell him to stop, but it was obvious she wasn't having a good time. He did not ask her what was wrong, he did not stop fucking her until he came. He used a sobbing human woman to get off. Later he tried to talk to her (maybe in a delayed sense of guilt?) but she acted blasé about it and uninterested, probably to cope if I had to guess. At "best" he took advantage of her feelings and allowed her to hook up with him while drunk. Worst case he raped her.

It just kinda shows that he's not very sorry or wants forgiveness for something he hasn't even forgiven himself for.
> except for the good graces of his honestyProbably why he expects forgiveness. You know what's right, anon. I'm so, so sorry that he's put you through this. Purchasing women's bodies is bad enough, but potentially if not straight up raping that woman really solidifies his character and attitude towards women, no matter how much better he seems.

>>676782The reveal about prostitution was very indirect, which makes me even angrier about it. I was curious about a certain period of his life and he explained that it was a blur to him and that he regretted a lot of his behaviors. He said he would have big parties with friends that involved a lot of drugs and sex. I dug more about that and he said he couldn't remember many specifics about the parties, but there were obviously a lot of addicts there hoping for freebies and "some were actual prostitutes." I may be reaching here, but to me that translated as, "I and/or my 'friends' paid those women and I had sex with some of them."
>>676779>if he owned up to it instead of throwing the woman under the busExactly, I specifically asked him, "So do you feel sorry for her now?"

Like, that woman still probably thinks about what he did to her–I know I still think about my attempted (thankfully) violent rape as well as times moids have simply coerced me into sex I didn't want. Like. He's not empathetic, anon. At least not wholly. Even if it's just him coping, which I wouldn't give him the benefit of the doubt of tbh, it's not excusable.

This is the second time my dad has asked me "Hey can you please marry (some young man he knows) so they he can get citizenship?". The first time, I was in highschool, and he kept begging me to do it saying how it was the son of his family friend and that family has helped him out a lot so he wanted to help them back. But by marrying me off?! Excuse me? As far as I know, that son has done nothing for me so I'm not obligated to help a fucking stranger. This time it's a dude around my age who works at the restaurant he works at. My dad says "oh he's a super hard working person, he has good character and doesn't have a temper, and he said he would give you $50k." Apparently the money is coming from a restaurant he wanted to open but plans fell through because of covid so now he has the money. A tiny part of me says "it's free money, take it" but the majority of me says that I have every reason to be sus that I won't actually get that money, and I'm still fucking pissed that my dad thinks I can be some pawn. It would "only be for two years" but I'm a gay woman. What if I meet someone in two years? How the fuck do you explain to someone "my dad married me off so some dude I don't even fucking know can get citizenship." Or even if I don't meet someone, I don't want there to be some record that I married and then later divorced someone!
My dad can feel like he wants to help good people, and he can try to help them out however they want, but to do that by marrying me off like some sort of fucking pawn? Are you kidding me? My dad kept saying "you can say no, but just hear me out" and I still immediately denied it. Even if it was one of my own very good friends I wouldn't fucking do shit like that! It's so fucking disrespectful that he thinks it's an option, it's so fucking disrespectful that he even actually gives some thought to it! I don't even know if his dumb ass was the one to suggest it to the person, or if the person boldly asked but what the fuck. I'm so fucking livid. I can't wait until I move out and hopefully find myself a lovely girlfriend so he can fuck off with constantly trying to marry me off to benefit some fucking random people that I don't even know!

I'm so tired of people whining and moping about how much they miss their families, or worse traveling to massive family gatherings for the holidays. They act like the pandemic doesn't apply to them or that it's soooo hard not to see your family members for one fucking year. I've spent my whole life cooped up in my room because of my narc dad's tyrannical rule and have been almost completely isolated from my extended family. I can count on one hand home many times I've actually been able to go out and spend time with my extended family during the holidays. There were several times where we were supposed to go but my dad cancelled last minuted because he threw a tantrum. He couldn't stand the thought of us going without him either, so Thanksgiving has always been my parents and I gathering for exactly an hour to eat and then fuck off to our respective hideouts once he's tired of us. Christmas is like this too. I've always been just a prop for him to play familyman for the world but call me a cunt behind closed doors. I was a checklist item he ticked off because he didn't seem to realize that a child is a lifelong commitment. My extended family never really made an effort to see us either because of his crazy behavior, and I grew up an isolated only child while all of my cousins got to vacation together every year.
All these people bitching about having to give up their loved ones for one year completely take for granted the fact that they even have loved ones. At least you'll have something once this pandemic is over, but at lot of us will still be on our own.

>>676959It sounds like a lot of money but it'll soon dry up when you've entered into a legal contract with someone you barely know, especially since you can end up fully financially responsible for someone in his situation. I'm not too sure how it is in the US, but in my country they try to prevent citizenship marriages like this occurring by making the person who is a citizen the insurance or "safety net", meaning that they'll take the brunt of the responsibility if anything goes wrong because the government will have easier access to them.

Your financial well being and literal life are on the line. Your father is morally backwards and insane to want to bind you to a stranger like this. He can give
his life savings and right nut to these people if he's so hellbent on helping them in some way. He doesn't own you and the fact he's even requesting this shows an incredible lack of respect for your basic humanity. Also, it goes without saying: You would never see a cent of that money.

i just want to be loved in the way i need so, so badly
i just want to matter to somebody so that i feel like i matter at all
everything i do is so laughably pathetic, i am so embarrassing and ugly and selfish and stupid and very very very small in a huge world. i feel like a dust speck floating through space, gravitating to nothing and nobody, going nowhere in particular at a million miles an hour
i just want somebody to see me as a whole person and love me regardless. i want somebody to want me to be healthy and well-cared for, i want somebody to care about me, i want somebody to want me around.
i want somebody to feel as though it's fate that we met and to believe in soulmates the more we get to know each other.
i have so much love to give, if i have one good quality it is unhinged, desperate loyalty. i have pathetically low standards beyond the desire to feel real, true, romantic, soul-rending love but truthfully i know it doesn't exist for somebody like me.
i'm withdrawing from medication right now and it fucking sucks. all my hair is falling out after surgery and blood loss. i lost 20+ kilos since september because of medication. my skin is disgusting and i keep picking holes in it. i can't disguise the bags under my eyes. i'm unrecognisable, but i lost all my friends, so it's not like there's anybody to recognise me. my clothes fit weird but i don't have any money to get new ones. i can't walk more than 2 kilometres at a slow pace without fainting when i used to run 6km every day. i drag my flabby deflated disgusting body around like a dead weight. i lie in bed most days trying to imagine the future and it's just blank. i don't have a personality or a purpose. nobody knows me or cares about me. sometimes i just feel myself leaving my body temporarily and the room starts spinning.
i nearly died at the start of october and as i was passing out i didn't feel scared anymore, i started drifting off thinking about school buses and clean streets and i was peaceful just very cold until i woke up in an ambulance. i wish i hadn't woken up. i came back from the hospital alone and i was signed off work for a bit. nobody noticed or checked i was ok, they just complained about having to cover my work.
this is a very self-indulgent post and i'm so sorry. some of you are going through really horrible traumatic things and i worry about you a lot especially at night. and here's me just crytyping on the internet. the kindest interactions i've had over the last few years have been from you, anons. i've had a lot of fun with you all. i hope you're all doing ok. thank you for being my friend

I know I have friends and people who care for me, but I was severely neglected by my parents and those early experiences can stick with you for a long time, and it can be difficult to override them and remind yourself that you are loved and important, even if you don't feel that way in this moment. It sounds like you're actually going through a lot right now, and it makes perfect sense that you feel so bad.

Not even lesbian or bi but why can’t the lgbt just leave lesbians alone? She is butthurt that some lesbians feel uncomfortable being with bi woman and is annoyed by the fact that they express their dislike of penises. The comment section agrees with her and is also shitting on lesbians. Where are you people when gays say the most disgusting things about women and their genitals? Let women have fucking boundaries. Why do most women feel so comfortable immediately attacking other women? I don’t see bi men making these videos crying about how gay men find vaginas repulsive. Lesbians have enough reasons to not like men. Leave them alone ffs.

>>677173If the items are selling then the buyers are to blame. If not, the sellers should quickly realize they are wasting their time and potentially money and reduce the prices.
Value doesn’t really mean what people think. Even gold, which has an intrinsic value due to it’s usefulness and is highly valued culturally, does not constantly have a high market value. Value just means what someone is willing to pay for something, whether they are alone in that or reflective of many people. Hence some people will pay $20 for basic secondhand clothes while others would not take it even for free.
The good thing about this is you don’t really need to get mad as you don’t value the items at all, so how much others value them is irrelevant. Not being a bitch here. Just think about it.

I think bachelor genx/millenial scrotes are in a huge awakening in the next 10 years as they get older and realize younger women are going to be repulsed by their ragged ass physical appearance in a way that wasn't true for their uncles/dads 20 years ago, to the point that "angry old incel" becomes synonymous with "angry cat lady".

I'm enrolled in one of the worst fucking courses of my entire academic career. My professor cannot even put the bare fucking minimum effort into teaching. She refuses to lecture and instead just makes us all engage in "group discussion" for the entire 2.5 hour class period, which typically amounts to fuck all because she hasn't actually at any point defined any of the overarching concepts of the course, and none of us are sure we understand them well enough to discuss them. She doesn't give us paper prompts until a week before a paper is due, regardless of the page length. The prompts themselves are barely coherent and asking her to clarify anything just leaves everyone more confused. I can't tell if she's just avoiding directly answering questions because she's lazy, or is just outright bullshitting because she doesn't actually know what she's talking about. It seems like a combination of both at this point. She has literally lectured ONCE the entire semester, and didn't even have any sort of corresponding powerpoint to go with it. She was just reading off her notes, saying "umm" every few words, and most of what she was saying was clearly pull straight from a text.
By far the worst offense is that she didn't reveal until halfway through the semester that our final project would be a 15 page paper with a corresponding presentation, and that we would have to seek an outside source for an interview to include in the paper. Bitch that is not the type of project you just pull out of your ass halfway into the semester, that shit should be stated up front on the very first day. As usual, the prompt makes no sense, and she can't answer basic fucking questions about how it's supposed to be written. She even apparently straight up said to another student who asked about it: "I don't know. Just do your best." Fucking lazy bitch I HATE HER SO MUCH I AM PAYING ACTUAL MONEY FOR THIS AND I AM SO ANGRY

However, general advice would be just to accept that people have different values and opinions. Sometimes they’re basing shit on nothing which is stupid but that’s their right. Maybe they’re genuinely not impressed by you, maybe they think you’re try hard, maybe they’re jealous. Doesn’t matter, that’s their opinion. Being able to take criticism is good but if it’s nonsensical then best to ignore. Why do you want someone who dislikes you to like you? Respect yourself more.

>>678029Fat and happy here. Decided to give up on chasing thin when I did some introspection one day and realized telling myself that I wanted to be skinny was just a cope. Because what I actually wanted was to be seen and be treated with respect. Which is what I thought thin, beautiful women automatically got as a default. Lol, I was dead wrong. Society treats women equally shit.
At my thinnest I was the most insecure, miserable person I had ever been and still dealt with bullshit stemming from shitty men and women who felt it their right to judge my body and treat me however they saw fit. It didn't matter what hoops I bent backwards for in the name of fitting a beauty standard, or telling myself how it was all for me, I was unhappy.
So yeah, I'm a fatass now but I have my dignity and a spine. Just because you can't be skinny doesn't mean you have to be an embarrassing Nikocado Avocado or Amberlynn Reid. I take care of myself. I'm not in any way bullied or made to feel like I'm an alien unless I willingly choose to go to
toxic places on the internet. I don't let my weight prohibit me from doing things and having fun. When in doubt, I look back on my thin phase and remember that it didn't make me love myself.

I am tired of having nothing but being my partners gf whenever I am in his friend circles. Hell, I even get called "x's gf" instead of my actual name.
But now it's worse.
His previous friend circle turned out to be a nice place that ended up treating me like an actual person, not "his girlfriend" even though that took some time. However all of them have moved on with their lives, just like us.
But there is other friend circle that is mainly his sisters circle and he just appears to be there. Thing is, she hates me ever since I married him. She is a highly insecure woman who hates other women in general with a mindset of "tradthots". But the problem there is that she started talking shit about me to their mutual friends and I just know it, because after she started talking to them now, whenever he joins a voicechat with them (without her obviously) they all stopped telling me hi or having a chitchat. She also is trying to convince their brother in law that I am horrible, abusing the thing that he is a kid who only entered teenagehood. I am acting nice and trying to get to know him, but that happens only IRL when she is not with us, when she is with us she makes sure that I am completely isolated from everyone.
But honestly, the worst part is that her "gay bestfriend (who is a straight man who is acting like "sassy" twitter personalities with adhd, joking that he is gay and is obsessed with gossip) keeps showing in my partners face things such as:
" You are not the same ever since you got married " , " You stopped spending time with us after you got married ", " You became a normie after you got married " (ironic enough, they treat Discord like an actual Facebook so them calling others normies is weird). Everything manipulative and negative always in the end implies to me, even though I had no chance to get to know these people from sisters circle more, but I still acted polite and nice around everyone, just to still being treated like "a reason why he is not around", when in reality these people could have always messaged or called him whenever they'd like, instead of whining and messaging him once-twice a year only when they fucking need something.
I do not have any friends IRL ever since I moved out. I cut out my old friends because they all ended up using me and kindness. I just want to be a part of something with my partner instead of having to be in seperate circles because of some tard.

Why even have kids if you expect them to pay you rent for living with you past 18?
If they don't have the money/resources to move out, what makes you think it's a good idea for them to pay rent to live with you? At that point, you're impeding their ability to save a good amount of money to leave.

It hurts and sucks losing friends, but at the end of the day you realise that they dont deserve you if they treated you like shit, and it shows that they never cared about you in a first place. Internet is huge, I am sure you will find better and genuine friends. Its normal to cut off people because that's a part of life, people come and people go. Its rather best to not cling too much or depend on peoples validation, when you can just chill around with new people and focus on yourself and your hobbies. In the end your closest friend is you.

Everytime I try to learn something new I end up dropping it because I'm not immediately good at it and, most importantly, everything I do seems bland because I'm unable to pour my emotions into anything. I have PTSD and I'm a depressed neet with no friends. I wish I could at least express my pain in art or music but I can't. I can't even express my feelings in my day-to-day life. I rarely talk, but when I do, I have this blank expression and my voice is monotone, I never look people in the eyes. I often wish I could cry but I can't. My family thinks nothing affects me because I'm so emotionless and bland. Strangers never approach me, obviously. Not to suicidebait but I often think about ending it because I can't deal with living for so many years and being mute and unable to express myself. Nothing gives me pleasure. Some paranoia starts to kick in too, I always feel like others stare at me and everyone, people at the grocery store, my neighbors, everyone knows something is deeply wrong with me just by looking at me and I'm sure they talk behind my back. Even when I'm alone at home I feel someone is watching me. I have intrusive thoughts about people breaking into my house and killing me. I've been on antipsychotic drugs but they didn't help me, I'm tired of the medical industry anyway. My therapist once suggested I may be on autism spectrum but I didn't try to get an official diagnosis since I know it wouldn't change anything in my life, everything seems pointless

I am so fucking tired of my parents being wishy washy when it comes to everything, it's been this way since I was a child. Saying one thing one day, then saying the complete opposite and getting mad when you haven't adjusted to the insanity. I came back to live with them for a few months before getting my own apartment, and I made it very clear I would be moving out January. The entire time they constantly said how bad of an idea it would be for me to move out and I should stay for longer (no? you guys literally drive me crazy and at the time I had no other options). I was able to live rent free so I could save up money to move out, but suddenly the tune changed once they learned exactly how much money I was getting for going to school. NOW I have to pay rent because it's according to them a lot of money, I shouldn't be a slacker, and it's only fair. This wouldn't bother me if the arrangement was there in the first place, but of course emotional whiplash happened again since I was "in a hard place" and "mommy and daddy will take care of you, we love you!". Sigh. After drilling it into their heads for months that January I'd be moving out, suddenly now they're pressuring me to leave sooner. I'm sorry what? You spent months trying to manipulate me into staying for longer, and now that it's November suddenly I need to have everything ready to go now, and I should be moving out either this month or next month? Turns out my stuff is proving inconvenient and in my dad's way for plants or something, he was literally just going to go through everything and start giving shit away or throwing out the things he didn't think mattered. I'm so tired of the fucking mind games and the hiding of true feelings until they think I would take it easily. Now I'm anxious I'll end up gathering my things to move and stuff will be missing because the pressure they're putting on me to get out when that was the plan in the first place. It makes me want to scream because they don't listen to what I say. If I say I will do something I will do it, but everything has always been on their time or on their terms, so I think they miss the control and aren't sure what to do with themselves when I don't bend. I hope once I move out again it will be the last time I ever live with them because I'm so fucking tired of their shit.

Been a few days since I last properly talked to her after going full psycho and screaming about me knowing where I put something when she had made it drop from the table, she kept telling me I always misplace stuff and so on, and in my pain and not calorie fueled brain I took it as a dig. Like, you fucking try to live in this hellbody with these pains, be the therapist, jester and mom to everyone, I think I know where the fuck I left a thing that was the only thing I had looked forward all year. I almost wish there was some interpreter to tell why I am so secretive, scared, stressed and explosive all the time no matter how smiley or jokey I come across, I am just too fucking tired and everything I say comes out as some form of dark joke. Today all I did was sit in the living room, feeling almost drunk from being so depressed yet angry, not being able to talk to anyone, somehow twisting it in my head that no one gave a fuck even though it's me not telling them shit.

I’m kind of tired of everything?
It’s just fucking annoying how I’m never right when I’m talking about anything, like bitch, I can’t just remember absolutely everything about everything, I’m better at remembering random fucking details because for some reason my brain can only remember shit like the time I had some really good oatmeal as a snack 5 years ago, but not the exact date.
The thing is that once again today my brother kept being a fucking asshole, we were spending the day together with my parents since they have to go back to their workplace in Africa, which means we won’t be able to dine and such with them for at least a whole year.
But what did he do? He kept making me seem like I’m a fucking idiot again like always, he fucking does that all of the time. For fuck’s sake, I remember growing up and always doubting myself to this motherfucking day because I’m always the only one who is wrong.
I kind of want to kill myself when my parents leave, I mean, I’m already 25 but a financial burden since I haven’t graduated yet. And I’m also fucking retarded I guess because I can’t even talk about motherfucking youtubers without being fucking worthless or something, according to this motherfucking asshat.
I’m just sick of this, I fucking pity anyone who has been growing up surrounded by scrotes because that shit sucks, they really love degrading their family members just because they’re not men.

i think i'm being crazy about my friend and i need advice.
i live at uni with a girl that i would call my best friend. we spend a lot of time together and have the same worldview on a lot of things. i've told her my deep secrets, all that kind of stuff, and think of her as almost a sister. since our academic year has started again, i started realizing she was hanging out with another mutual (girl) friend of ours a lot. this wasn't an issue, as we all three have lived together before, and i thought we were all pretty good friends.
she and our friend started hanging out every day. she would leave for long periods of time and wouldn't come home some days until around 1-2 AM. she was hanging out with our friend (obviously i wasn't ever invited). this was weighing on me at the time because i just felt purposefully excluded from what i thought was a three-person friendgroup. i would say that this happened for 2-3 months consistently?
last month, the two of us went over to the friend's house for a party that was half-celebrating one of my achievements and half-small house party. we ended up crashing there. i slept in the living room while she and our friend slept in friend's bed. i felt like they had become best friends and left me behind and it really fucked with me mentally. it's like she moved on from our friendship overnight without telling me.
i have explained to her how i was feeling, and she has told me many times "i don't want you to feel left out" and "i appreciate you telling me this so that now i can keep your feelings in mind". but she's still continued to do the things she was doing earlier.
tonight, the three of us were supposed to hang out together, but at the last minute she texted me and told me that she and our friend had been invited to a party that i couldn't go to.
so now i'm sitting at home alone, wondering if i should book an appointment with a therapist. am i being too overbearing and being crazy selfish about this? do i just need to accept that this is how life is? or is my friend in the wrong? i genuinely can't tell at this point and need advice.

Either way, I don’t think you’re being crazy. Your friend is fucking you about and needs to be honest rather than trying to spare your feelings. If you think having that conversation is necessary, prepare yourself and try to keep things calm. Or you could just leave things to trail off if that feels okay. If possible try to make some new friends to distract you, see if your uni is doing online events or something if nothing physical. Therapy sounds extreme but if you’re feeling that bad and think it will help, go ahead.
It’s difficult but I think you need to move on. Good luck, anon.

I am so fucking pissed at myself for buying into the fucking marriage meme. My boyfriend and I got engaged a few weeks ago. He did the whole traditional proposal and everything, it was very nice.
The thing is I expected for people to be at least a little happy when they eventually found out? We didn't even broadcast it or anything, I just called my mum and dad the next day to tell them the news (fiancée's mum died from covid this summer). Mum was very happy but dad said it was 'just a ring.' which was rather shitty of him.
Mum then proceeded to call the whole family who just seemed disappointed that he wasn't of our nationality and that I am too young while simultaneously claiming that my same-age, richer cousin is going to be getting married at the exact same time, even through he is not even engaged yet.
Fiancée's friends shat on him for getting down on one knee. One friend that is already engaged basically called him a simp and said that he should have waited for me to propose.(which is what the friend did to his girlfriend).
His family isn't happy eider because I am an immigrant, cue the 'mail order bride' jokes.
Our close male friend found out when he came around to visit, said 'huh' then after he left told our friendship group that he needed to 'sort out his head' and went quiet for two weeks. This confirms my suspicions that he was probably orbiting one of us or smth. The rest of the group would have probably reacted the same so I didn't tell them, they are all chronically single and get pissy if we as much as mentioned that we were a couple.
I haven't told anyone else, since when I do it just ends in disappointment. I feel stupid for wanting to share something that made me happy with people I thought would at least give a nano-shit about it. I feel bad for my man too, he doesn't deserve this treatment.

>>679398Did your parents grow up poor? I grew up in a low income household where wasted food was a waste of money we didn't have, and I took the "starving kids in Africa" lectures so seriously that I would cry thinking about kids that don't have food. On the plus side, my immune system is great and I've learnt that most "expired" food is still ok for an extra day. But the downside is that I binge eat to comfort myself, and even though I can afford food now as an adult I still feel such shame letting food expire that I will force expired food down myself when my boyfriend isn't there to see it. I don't want to, it's compulsive.

His friends are never going to like you if they're being this racist/xenophobic now, and if his friends are misogynistic incels like they seem to be he probably isn't much better deep down since he's still friends with them and hasn't dumped them over someone insulting his future wife like that.
>His family isn't happy eider because I am an immigrant, cue the 'mail order bride' jokes.If you marry into this, you'll be stuck with these people for the rest of your life. Even if your fiancé cuts them off, he might eventually grow to resent you for making him do it and for your family treating him the same way.
I was married to a proto-incel and got shit on for the most random things, at family gatherings I was always ignored and people seemed mildly disgusted by me even being there, they accused me of being a thief, scammer, visa whore etc after we broke up.

>even though he had symptoms for over a week before me or my grandma did
>and theyre also just making things up trying to claim my grandma was already sick when they went to the cemetery even though she wasnt
idk anons, it just sounds to me like theyre trying to take the responsibility off of themselves since some elderly relatives have also caught it

I HATE seeing watching my sister become that one meme with the woke girl talking about POC and colonization but has a white bf.
She's slowly turning into a woke zoomer and I'm pretty sure it's because of all the content she looks at on Instagram and tiktok.
I know she just wants to do the right thing and make it known that her shop is run by a decent person but every take she's had is just her parroting the same rhetoric you hear on twitter and shit.She genuinely believes it and I'm loathing the day she says something stupid and we get into an argument.

I’ve been low-key sick for 6/7 years now. I’m tired all the time, and every few months I get my blood tested to find out I’m anaemic. I take the pills, the dr doesn’t want to refill the prescription, get another test, anaemic again. Like clockwork. Sometimes, for variety, it’s supplemented by other deficiencies.
I don’t know how the U.K. munchies do it as NHS drs don’t seem to give a fuck even with solid proof that something’s up. Next week I have another test and when the inevitable results come I swear I’m going to beg for answers this time.
It’s not the worst thing in the world, I can appreciate that. But also it’s ruining my life as I can rarely muster up the energy to do anything more than work. Even on the pills I’m far from energetic. I want to have hobbies, go places, socialise, instead of sitting around at home like an 80 year old.

She also posted a picture where the elephants won't forget the abuse they were put through. Well, guess what - I haven't forgotten your abuse either.

>>679429Not really, they used to have quite a bit of money and my father even had a company. They're the kind of people who used to buy useless shit all the time, and even now they buy way more food than what's needed. The food thing is just a something they do that I can't stand. I also eat things that are nearly expired if it's canned, made of wheat or vegetables, but I'm careful with fresh cheeses, seafood, meat, eggs or milk. But my father especially would eat meat with mold on it, or sticky ass chicken breasts, he once even ate a 4 day old boiled egg that wasn't put in the refrigerator. I also have a hate for expired foods because my mother would never take things gone bad out of the refrigerator and left them beside the fresher stuff and you couldn't tell which was which, so I ended up eating expired things a few times.
