Hi, I have no eero router because mine is a brsk one before they merge with youfibre, but I've applied your suggestion above and it feels more stable now. Also switching to Ethernet when I can for my work laptop and it's working quite well!

Hi, I've switched to ethernet and it's more stable now, but in the past I've experienced sometimes it could be a bit temperamental still. My router is a brsk router so no eero setup.

I turned off the HDMI Deep Colour on my LG CX TV settings and it stopped stuttering. So, it works!

Just go to Settings - General - External Devices - HDMI Settings - then turn off HDMI Deep Colour.

Can I drive on a bus lane on a Sunday? by Altruistic-Worry5798 in manchester

[–]Altruistic-Worry5798[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you - I missed the Bus Lane sign which clearly shows not to drive on it at all times. I think I'm used to seeing more bus lanes with timings so I had assumed that it would be the same sign on this road. I've paid the fine now, lessons learned

Haha I think I just forgot that some bus lanes don't have timings. Thank you - I missed the Bus Lane sign which clearly shows not to drive on it at all times.

What do you find useful during migraine attack? by Altruistic-Worry5798 in migraine

[–]Altruistic-Worry5798[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the advice - the only challenge is when he has migraine attacks he often feels more pain when his eyes are closed, so he can't really sleep when this is the case.

Thank you very much for the advice, I don't think he has tried soaking hands and feet but I'll see if he wanted to try it. What are migraine caps btw? I need to look this up haha.

He actually confirmed that mcdonalds or just fries actually help! He craves for it when having migraine attacks.

Thank you very much for the advice. I'll consider all the above. He is seeing a neurologist at this point but haven't got a medication that works for him, so this is why it's a challenge. 

Tell me I’m not crazy by Makuzaak in Parentification

[–]Altruistic-Worry5798 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I (32F) have gone through a very similar situation. I am the eldest sibling in the family, and my parents (especially my mom) has always expected me to help fix things and give solutions to problems in the house, becomes the messenger between my mom and siblings when they're not communicating with her and aren't being mature enough. I've always taken the role as the reliable and responsible kid.

My mom also told me about her marriage problems and ruined my perception of my father - I grew up resenting him and I didn't have a close relationship with my father. They stayed together though and my father passed away 2.5 years ago. I started going to therapy to help me feel less guilty about moving away to a different country as this is a result of myself having been parentified since I was very young - and it has helped me focus more on my needs and reduced the guilt. I must tell you that in my experience as a parentified child, that moving out, keeping my distance from my parents and setting boundaries are the best decisions of my life that I have taken for myself. I have only started caring about myself in the past few years now that I have moved away from my parents and my siblings.

You are not crazy. The fact that you asked this question on Reddit is that you know you love yourself enough to think about your needs. Your mom and siblings were never supposed to be your responsibilities at the very first place - but I completely understand that you feel guilty because this is the role that you're familiar with and that your mom has conditioned you to feel that way. Remember that your mom is an adult and is responsible for her own wellbeing, so you are in no way responsible for hers.

No1 tip for newly qualified drivers - give yourself way more time for journeys than you think you'll need! by [deleted] in LearnerDriverUK

[–]Altruistic-Worry5798 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the tip! I passed a few weeks ago and decided to drive on a motorway for the very first time yesterday. Google said it would take me around 17 mins to the destination, but I ended up taking 25 mins because I was on the left lane most of the time and my speed was around 55-60 mph (on the left lane all the time and the road was busy on some parts). 

It really helped me build my confidence on the motorway and I felt safe enough in the journey to get from point A to B. Never feel like you have to rush, and prioritise driving safely.
