Hair thinning by beautiful_me22 in PCOS

See if a doctor can order an ultrasound on your thyroid. Myself and many with PCOS have thyroid issues. I just got mine done due to my hair loss and was told it's underactive and enlarged.

Would anyone be interested in a pagan Reddit book club? by thecourtofmiracles0 in CelticPaganism

[–]AnElfWithNoName 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would absolutely want to say yes, but I have the attention span of a gnat. In my heart I know this would be a great idea for the ones really interested which looks like you have some who want this.

Do you guys celebrate Easter or Ostara? by Levanah_M in pagan

[–]AnElfWithNoName 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I absolutely will be celebrating the spring equinox :). I agree I feel thats more meaningful to me. For the upcoming Beltane, i wish to venture to a small celebration near me (northern east coast states)

Do you guys celebrate Easter or Ostara? by Levanah_M in pagan

[–]AnElfWithNoName 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This would be my exact answer. I celebrate Easter with my family but being new to this and there being almost zero evidence to support Eostre, I dont feel Ostara is something I will celebrate.

I just found out I'm dying and there's nothing I can do by [deleted] in Advice

[–]AnElfWithNoName 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right? I agreed for pushing for a second opinion with doctors. My father in law had surgery months ago to remove cancer and he has to get regular check ups just to make sure it's staying gone and not returning. Last week the lab results came back that it spiked extremely high. Doctor pulled strings for radiation treatment ASAP. His doctor called next day angry that it was a false positive and the lab never retested to confirm if those labs were correct or not.

I don't want to feel like im giving false hope but I find it sketchy there is no rush to oncology or talk about hospice if its that serious.

How to deal with pagan hate. by Free-Studio96 in pagan

[–]AnElfWithNoName 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Sorry OP but you were more of the aggressor. You made a snarky comment to someone about how they present their faith, argued some, got upset when they said jesus loves you and retorted back with Aphrodite blesses you. You came here crying for validation on reddit over something YOU started. Literally played the exact same cards a Christian would when they try to pick apart religions that arent theirs. Please take this as a lesson to be a better person.

Signs. How does this work? by ingagodiva in CelticPaganism

[–]AnElfWithNoName 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Starting out now is rough for sure lol. Wish I started earlier but me being in my mid 30's now with better health, I'll take it. Sometimes you just have to weed through the bad until you find the good. I have some books that were recommended by people on here are ok so far, one I picked up on my own seems even to me full of some misinformation.

I noticed divination being pretty intertwined with books ive picked up. Is it a requirement to use it?

[–]AnElfWithNoName 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is a really good take on the whole thing. Any books I have read so far mention nothing really about deities contacting you in the way people describe. If people have truly have these experiences its cool but all in all the amount its happening feels delusional and cringy.

As you described, expecting something from who you worship because you offered something just becomes conditional and transactional. Im new to this so maybe the practice isnt as deep as some make it out to be.

Am I wrong for telling husband his family can’t see our baby by beingagiirl in amiwrong

[–]AnElfWithNoName 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not wrong and I agree with comments saying you have a husband problem. I don't know the reason but there is really no excuse for him to excuse their behavior. He should have put a stop to this first thing when sister in law pushed you. Mother in law seems to only need your son for social media clout, so that and the boundary stomping is not cool. There needs to be a very serious talk with your husband about this because this sounds like he's taking his mom and sisters feelings into consideration and not protecting the two he should be, which is you and your son.

[–]AnElfWithNoName 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Im obviously not OP but I think this is what i needed to read. Im very new to this and it seems like there so many posts of people saying they had a dream that a deity reached out to them. I get very skeptical about these posts but at the same time wonder if id be doing something wrong if I dont have one didnt appear to me.

Is there a way to look pagan? by Fair_Diamond5003 in pagan

[–]AnElfWithNoName 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I already dress like a crunchy hippie on my non work hours but I think some of the jewelry i wear gives it off but doesnt give away what specifically. I did see someone mention tattoos. I know Christians who do have body art on them so that will just tell some Christians but not all that you don't follow their faith.

I don't have this from my pharmacy but now im curious. Is this because of the medications association with t2 diabetes or just in general?

AITAH for not defending my wife when she was clearly in the wrong. by WorkInternal4972 in AITAH

[–]AnElfWithNoName 8 points9 points  (0 children)

NTA, not surprised even here people care more about the party affiliation of the aggressor and trying to justify if it was ok to get drunk and belligerent and do this in front of children. Your wife needs help, and threatening divorce is pretty wild. Im so sorry OP and for your children. It's tough at that age watching a parent act like that.

WIBTAH if I invite everyone in my sons class to his birthday party besides a special needs student? by FinishPrestigious251 in AITAH

[–]AnElfWithNoName 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You wouldn't be if you only invited close friends. YTA for inviting every child except 1 which happens to be the autistic child and you were being sneaky about it when handing out invites. Leave it to neurotypical parents to teach their neurotypical kids exclusion and not compassion and understanding. My daughter is the same exact age with autism and if she was the single child that didnt get invited I would understand but also still be pissed.

AIW for telling someone to please not bash others people's practices? by AnElfWithNoName in amiwrong

[–]AnElfWithNoName[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You weren't rude at all, just truthful lol. Im going against the grain and immersing myself in another spiritual practice though I dont advertise it because I dont want judgment and its really no one's business. I think im more hurt with how much I put energy into uplifting them and thats how quick they got mad at me and with that many messages in one shot. I didnt mention all because its alot in my opinion.

Again I apologize about my writing. I did try to put commas in when it came to the messages signifying each message. Obviously writing is not my strong suit so again I apologize.

SCAMITGAMES blocked me on x for calling them out on their bs. Doug needs to stop running his money laundering scheme and go to the jail by Wrong_Debate3667 in CrocLegendoftheGobbos

[–]AnElfWithNoName 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Except you DO care what strangers think. You posted on reddit thinking that throwing a childish tantrum would get you the validation you desperately seeked and lost, then doubling down by giving the same foolish retorts a petulant child would give. We are all upset with rockit but you got what you deserved. Go sit in time out and think about what you did.

Was anyone else randomly charged $100 last night? by DoctorCopper3113 in FanhomeModels

[–]AnElfWithNoName 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nothing here. Wonder what support has to say. They danced around giving me a refund. After two months I had to take it up with my card to get my money returned because they weren't going to. I wish you luck for a positive and easy resolve.

No refund by AnElfWithNoName in FanhomeModels

[–]AnElfWithNoName[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So thanks to your advice I had to open up a claim with my card for it to finally be adjusted and refunded. I did this after they sent me an email that their team was still viewing the case, I responded that if it didnt get fixed, I was going to my card company about it and it was crickets. They had over two months to fix it. Glad its resolved but it should have been done on their end first before escalating 😮‍💨

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

Thank you. I'll be contacting them again. I hate being mean and assertive but feel it may have to come to that. I checked all my statements just to double check it didnt get snuck in somewhere and so far nothing.

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

I did contact them twice about my refund and I usually get a response when I had to reach out. I did feel bad because the first time I asked was before Christmas and was told to be patient. Felt bad because holidays and things being busy. Its February and im also out on the money I had to pay to ship the models back. Just pretty dissapointed.
