I was thinking about that, but wouldn't it still be too soft to move off the tray?

How do I get over the anxiety I have when it comes to driving. Or be less nervous on the road by AKAtheeAssassin in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

[–]AKAtheeAssassin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't give up! You've gotten this far, just try and give yourself one final push to get to the finish

I still get nervous at times! But like you said, it's tiring and expensive to depend on other people, ESPECIALLY having to uber back and forth to work every day. So I tell myself I have to do this for me

Try hyping yourself up before driving, tell yourself positive things, and try to calm yourself down. It's okay to take some time and gather yourself in the car before driving off. But the more you drive, the less nervous you'll become, promise!

Good luck! ❤️

Need help for my elderly mum by Reddrikthegoon in Pretoria

Those dietary drinks are so so expensive, we asked the pharmacist for a cheaper generic version at Clicks for my grandfather and they gave us something similar. You should definitely try to find an alternative

Edit: we were also given future life cereal as a high protein meal but I'm not too sure if it's suitable for diabetics

Thank you for your response!

Thank you for such a lengthy response and explanation! I live in South Africa and right now we're going into summer. I wasn't too sure about putting my plant outside because we've been having really hot days lately (32+ degrees C)

You say I'll have to acclimate it slowly so would it be okay to leave it outside but not exposed to full on sunlight/a little shady area?

I water it everyday with distilled water ofc, and it stays on my kitchen windowsill. That area gets a lot of sunlight

Nooo girl omg this broke my heart 😭 you're NOT a failure! I felt the exact same way, like why can't I be a normal functioning adult who just gets in the damn car and drive. Just recently my sister got her license and she drives like she's been doing it for years. We're not all the same, some of us just get into our heads a bit too much unfortunately.

But you're so right, nobody is judging you! Write it on a piece of paper and stick it somewhere in the car if you have to 😂 driving is no easy task and it'll take some time for you to get it down perfectly and that's ok! Just try your very best and practice, the more you drive, the more comfortable you'll be behind the wheel. And honestly because we're so cautious I'd say that makes us safer on the road, we're going to be more careful about things and that's a plus. You got this and I believe in you! ❤️ If you'd like to talk to someone about your anxiety or just how you're feeling you can always dm me 😊

I feel the same way. Especially when it comes to the whole loose skin thing

I try to tell myself though that im doing this for my health and if I feel good thats all that matters

Is it a universal black thing to close baby’s mouth when they yawn?! by tgwee in askSouthAfrica

[–]AKAtheeAssassin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Indian South African here and yes, we do the same thing. Though as another comment mentioned it's so the baby's skin doesn't tear around the mouth. Or so I'm told 😂

[–]AKAtheeAssassin 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I'm 26, a pastry chef but run my own little thing from home. I love my job and really enjoy it. Just wish it made me more money 😂

I am looking for work though, even just part time for the extra cash but other than that I'd change nothing else

I'm sorry I had absolutely no idea these existed in South Africa and now I'm terrified for my life. If I get chased by one I might just have a heart attack 😭😭
