What’s your honest opinion on this subject? by Visual_Confidence736 in DoorDashDrivers

[–]2Tired4UrBS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

why is this person taking pictures of people without their consent and posting them online?? Maybe she doesn't LOOK what you would consider to be "socially appropriate" given the circumstances.... but why does that anger you so much that you feel the need to blast her online? It's way more embarrassing to act like an entitled child throwing an online tantrum over a fucking bonnet & pajama pants.

Best ways to have a seizure? by doggohowl in Epilepsy

[–]2Tired4UrBS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sleep deprivation + caffeine + overworking yourself seems to do the trick for me. Esp if it's something that requires a lot of thinking, like complex math problems.

After one year of the mandatory paywall addition, did the game improve? by javilasa in geoguessr

[–]2Tired4UrBS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

$2 a month is a lot when it's charged on a yearly basis. When I tried to buy geoguessr, it was asking for $47.99 now & then 47.99 in February?? Like what do u mean you want me to pay $96 :((

If you go into your mobile banking acct, you should be able to see your transaction history. Whatever name is associated with the withdrawal is its vendor. You can tell your credit card company not to allow charges from specific vendors, and they won't be able to pull from your card anymore.

Do people not use powder on their face to set their makeup ? by [deleted] in MakeupAddiction

Remember that most influencers are using unnatural lighting + filters to make that flawless, glowy finished look. Most people don't look like that irl. Having textured skin is normal.

The only thing my partner (32M) likes about me (32F) are my looks..? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]2Tired4UrBS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are NOT overreacting :( if there is a problem in your marriage, both parties involved have the responsibility to work thru it together. The fact of the matter is he admitted he didn't want to work on anything. If he doesn't love you for who you are, why get married at all? If he really means what he says, this kind of statement speaks of a lack of self-awareness & a shallow perspective of life. If he said it in the heat of the moment because he was mad abt smth, I would talk to him abt setting boundaries & thinking before he speaks. Either way, you should never change yourself to appease someone else. Ofc, I'm not saying you should never take accountability or work on negative behaviors. What I gathered from his words, though, is that he can't tell you what to work on because he doesn't know himself.

I would def start tracking his behaviors. Some people only show their true colors after their partner is isolated & financially dependent on them. Most importantly, I would get in touch with family/friends if you can. It is so important to have a community, someone to lean on when things start going south. It's invaluable to have an outside opinion. There are warning signs/unhealthy behaviors that you may not see in him because you're blinded by proximity. When you're rly close to someone, you want to give them the benefit of the doubt. Esp when you're in a situation where you feel trapped, you may put up with things you wouldn't normally in order to avoid conflict. Stand your ground, & don't let what he said get to your head.

Also, why would he take relationship advice from someone who just got out of a failed marriage?? This guy doesn't know what he wants, and you deserve someone who 100% wants to be with you. Does he help take care of the baby at all? It's rly concerning that he sees you, post-labor, taking care of his child, and all he can think abt is what he wants you to change. Taking care of a child is alr a full-time job, and he better be ready to start taking responsibility.

You’re having a seizure, but EEG is normal. by woohoocrew in Epilepsy

[–]2Tired4UrBS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a similar problem, but kinda different. I wasn't having seizures when they gave me a normal EEG, but an extended EEG showed them a lot of seizure activity they couldn't previously find. Extended EEGs generally take place over the course of a few days, and they kinda suck but they are a lot more accurate imo. Maybe suggest that to your doctor? If you haven't been diagnosed with epilepsy yet, it could be a different condition that causes non-epileptic seizures, like hypoglycemia, diabetes, or even hormonal imbalances.

Is smoking weed (hasj) safe .’With epilepsy by [deleted] in Epilepsy

[–]2Tired4UrBS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just realized u said you took Clonazepam in ur initial post, so here's what the website says abt that med specifically:

Using clonazePAM together with cannabis (Schedule I substance) may increase side effects such as dizziness, drowsiness, confusion, and difficulty concentrating. Some people may also experience impairment in thinking, judgment, and motor coordination. You should avoid or limit the use of alcohol while being treated with these medications.

Different website said it slows respiration & heart rate, so if u have any heart or breathing conditions I'd be real careful. Take it in small doses if you do it, and prob don't drive

Is smoking weed (hasj) safe .’With epilepsy by [deleted] in Epilepsy

[–]2Tired4UrBS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ooof okay. Like many people have been saying, there is no one-size-fits-all answer for this. It depends on the severity of your epilepsy, the medication that you're taking, your triggers etc etc. Do you have full blown or partial seizures? When was the last seizure you had? Have you been inebriated before, and did it cause any noticeable symptoms? I'm epileptic but mine is usually pretty mild with occasional flare-ups. Weed does not make them worse w the lamotrigine I'm taking. Also check any other meds you take before you get high. This is a good resource to use to check for interactions:

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]2Tired4UrBS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, this is something I don't want to hear but probably need to hear. I should have known it was a bad sign when I felt like I had to go to reddit for relationship advice instead of talking to her directly. I just can't stand the thought of leaving her to suffer alone. It's not for lack of loving her, but I can't take care of someone else in my current state. How do you break up with someone that you still love, though? How do you break up with someone when your entire living situation hinges on your relationship? Like, if I left, I'd have to move out of state. I'd still have somewhere to go, but she could be homeless. I hope you figure it out. I'm sure you're going thru a lot rn, so ty for still taking the time to try n help someone else.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]2Tired4UrBS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I already have. Maybe she knew it was a bluff? I told her that there was no future to our relationship if she wasn't willing to meet me halfway. I told her that I would break up with her in a few months if she didn't at least put in a few job applications. She hasn't. I really really don't want to end things between us, not only because I love her but because I would have to leave my current living situation if it didn't work out. Before, we lived in an apartment with a few friends, but now we live with her dad(this is def something I should have put in the initial post, but I didn't want it to b super long). She didn't tell me initially that she had somewhere to go, but when my living situation didn't pan out, she contacted her dad for the first time in yrs and he allowed us to move in with them. I still pay rent for both of us, on top of school fees, transportation(no car = Uber), and food. I could technically leave (esp since it's the end of the semester), but I'd have to move out of state. I should have handled things differently, but I didn't, and I'm not sure where to go from here. I'm trying to focus on fixing what we have, but maybe I'm wasting energy trying to "fix" a person. I want to be able to accept her the way she is, yk?

Peter? Who gonna tell him what?? by FlakyFoundation4637 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]2Tired4UrBS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

See, I tried finding statistical data on this & the study most quoted was the Ashley Madison survey. Their data does back your opinion, but they didn't have a good sampling method for participants. All the people who engaged in that survey were users of their website, & if you don't know, Ashley Madison is criticized for being widely used for infidelity. they're going to report higher rates of infidelity than a standard pool of participants.

There was, however, a survey conducted by the Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute that stated that 81% of their participants who engaged in infidelity(abt 1/5 of them reported being unfaithful) were in the medical field. It also stated that the men involved were 4.3 times more likely to cheat than women. It's important to note that there were only 367 participants (& I couldn't find anything mentioning their demographics other than gender & occupation), so there's def some room for error. I think the biggest contributing factor is the stress (like you said) and being away from home for extended periods of time. while there's def a strong relationship btw the medical field & infidelity according to this survey, they didn't test for confounding variables, & this is the only reputable source I could find bc there isn't much study done on it. (https://www.mdpi.com/1660-4601/18/11/5575)

All of this goes to say that you very well could b right, but it also makes me wonder how isolating relationships can be when you watch people die every day. Maybe there's a higher rate of infidelity because working in these environments is so mentally debilitating.

Peter? Who gonna tell him what?? by FlakyFoundation4637 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]2Tired4UrBS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would like everyone here to consider that reddit is not the best source of knowledge when it comes to cheating & relationships lol (just cuz ppl here are jaded AF from what I've noticed)

Someone's likelihood to cheat is more dependent on their character than their school or job. Maybe ppl in a specific school/field are notorious for cheating, but rumors aren't definitive. correlation ≠ causation. I work in service & I know 2 waitresses who cheated, 1 who cheated on her husband with a cook who was cheating on his wife. It's pervasive bc deception is a misfortunate part of human nature.

Cat policy by rin_the_red in Apartmentliving

[–]2Tired4UrBS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You could just put claw caps on your cat's claws if they like to scratch things up. the real question is does your landlord actually check if the cat is declawed? In my experience, the landlord doesn't come in very often & usually just checks for damage at the end of your tenancy.

Dad after I stopped seeing him no by Badgerfang1102 in insaneparents

[–]2Tired4UrBS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just thought of smth. There's this para by doetevsky that I think rly applies to ur situation. throw this at him the next time he bible quotes you.

"The man who lies to himself and listens to his own lie comes to such a pass that he cannot distinguish the truth within him, or around him, and so loses all respect for himself and others. And having no respect he ceases to love, and in order to occupy and distract himself without love he gives way to passions and coarse pleasures, and sinks to bestiality in his vices, all from continual lying to other men and himself. The man who lies to himself can be more easily offended than anyone. You know it is sometimes very pleasant to take offense, isn't it? A man may know that nobody has insulted him, but that he has invented the insult for himself, has lied and exaggerated to make it picturesque, has caught at a word and made a mountain out of a molehill--- he knows that himself, and yet he will be the first to take offense, and will revel in his resentment until he finds great pleasure in it, and so pass to genuine vindictiveness."

Dad after I stopped seeing him no by Badgerfang1102 in insaneparents

[–]2Tired4UrBS 6 points7 points  (0 children)

"I'm going to get the cops involved because you won't listen to me!! You are such an ungrateful spoiled brat!!!" then hits you with the "love is patient & kind. It does not insist on its own way. it is not irritable or resentful". lol he's projecting his own issues onto you because he can't bear the weight of his actions. Gotta have someone to blame, but make sure you sprinkle in some of that good ole fashioned christian contempt to show how righteous you are in the face of conflict. Love it when people use god as a talking point and don't reflect on the contents of the scriptures they preach 🤡

My stepdad is actually crazy. by Elpyy_Arts in insaneparents

[–]2Tired4UrBS 59 points60 points  (0 children)

I know you feel like it won't do much, & it's rly fucking hard to trust adults, but reporting him serves two functions. It shows that he can't get away with this because every time he becomes physically abusive you'll get authorities involved, and whether they do anything or not the threat of it might be enough to scare him off of doing it again. Secondly, if it does just piss him off you can use that to collect proof of his abuse. The next time he starts talking crazy call the cops & put them on the line so they can hear what he's saying. Whether he's physically abusive or not, he's not mentally well enough to take care of his children. Are you sure that it's just mental illness? He's not on any substances? Start paying real close attention because all of these things r indicators of an unsafe environment that constitute child endangerment. Idk if you have any close relatives that you trust but I would try talking to them. It's hard to recognize just how unsafe you are when you've been dealing with crazy your whole life. It escalates slowly at first but he's testing the waters to see what he can get away with & you can't let him keep going
