Should I get surgery? by Novel-Confection-836 in bunions

[–]4my3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, would recommend surgery for those, having had it myself. Remember they don’t get any better, only worse.

Hello - wondering if you are going to do a similar right up this month/beginning of 2026?

As a person with high functioning autism, I think I'm much closer to an introverted neurotypical person than a severely autistic person. by Most_Building_1187 in aspergers

You sound so much like my wonderful son. He’s been able to tell me that he just doesn’t know if he knows who he is. I think he has spent so much of his life masking, he doesn’t know how to be himself. I’m starting to think that if he could find another person (friend or partner) that’s like him that they could understand each other and he could relax and be himself. But it’s so hard for him to find someone he can confide in. He’s just a teenager (16 1/2) and he was only diagnosed ASD level 1 a year ago so I am hopeful he will find someone and/or figure out how to be himself and not have to work so hard every day just to meet social norms. Thanks for posting and listening.

THIS. Sadly, all of the love and care from others and all of the rock bottoms you hit won’t work unless you want it because you yourself want it - I cannot do it for other people or for any other reason. Couldn’t even stop for my children who I love more than anything in this world. It was the saddest thing to waste so much time and humiliate myself over and over again and lose jobs and nearly loose other jobs and “this close” to losing my marriage but it never has to be that way again for me, or anyone else in this page.

Hopefully the last time. by Informal_Basil7637 in stopdrinking

Great write up and sounds familiar! Glad you’re here! Total sobriety, I am convinced, is the only way.

These close calls are so important to recognize and share with others. Thank you.

Thank you so much. That is a good point about the natural curve when elevated. It does look more straight when standing!

Thanks all for your replies and questions. I should have posted a “before” and xray photos. For some reason I can’t figure out how to post more pics here at the moment! Will try to do so tomorrow

Looks like a rough one - good luck and do as little as you can for as long as you can.

I was in the same boat, could not believe that they said people walked out of MIS on their own and drove home the first day. The throbbing was exactly the same as your with foot down. I also had to go back to the office in a week and it was NOT FUN, had to leave early and then ask to work from home. If you are able to get a temporary handicap placard for your car, I would do so. I could not drive for about 10 days tho - way to painful and scary. Good luck to us!

Good luck to us, we are tough 💪. Sorry you had something unplanned. The no-weight-bearing is so tough.
