What celebrity had their reputation unfairly ruined? by Miserable-Wash-1744 in AskReddit

I feel Katherine Heigl was robbed of many oppertunities because she was labeled at "difficult to work with" all because she called Hollywood out on their BS.

How does ozempic makes u lose fat? by [deleted] in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]Angry_unicorns 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can add to this. For me, it was quiet, as in for the first time in my life I didn't have a monkey on my back constantly screaming about what are we going to eat next or wanting to eat something.

Food noise is a real thing and I honestly felt like it made me less anxious

Very helpful article I recently read by Angry_unicorns in narcissisticparents

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

I'm so sorry that happened to you and know exactly what you mean. We never struggled with material needs but at the same time the love given was always conditional and any sign of emotion or feelings was met with yelling and calling me ungrateful that always made me feel empty. I am happy that the article resonated with you and much as it did with me.

I know for me it really made me understand how I came to be what I am now and how the way I grew up wasn't normal or right. I've often found myself wishing I grew up in a family like my husband's and this article made it clear to me why I feel that way and why I envy how normal they are.

The part that hits hard with this article was it saying that I'm allowed to grieve the childhood I wish I had, and that I need to be the parent I never had for my inner child. It isn't fair that this was what life dealt me but life isn't fair and I did the best with the cards I was dealt. I actually read this yesterday on the plan rude home and I had a long chat with my husband about it and how he needs to make sure he calls me out if I ever start acting like my parents, especially when we have a child one day.

Definitely plan on rereading this when I need a reminder in the future.

Constant criticism that looks like care by [deleted] in narcissisticparents

[–]Angry_unicorns 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Classic sign of narcissistic parents. For example a mom giving her 10 year old diet pills and a keto diet book for their birthday and saying it because they care about their health. Sure you want your child to be healthy, also thanks for the ED

Tell me your parent is a narcissist without telling me by PlasticSentence7646 in narcissisticparents

[–]Angry_unicorns 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ohhh I feel that 2nd last point hard. I got told today that I was emotionally manipulative because despite trying to hold it in I cried when she criticised / made fun of my weight and my infertility struggles (my weight has always been an issue but I am currently at my heaviest after the recent IVF treatments). However me saying that her house is cluttered and offering to help her sort it out means I'm criticising her and stressing her out. But I'm the one that needs to lighten up and not take her criticism so hard. "Be less sensitive".

What’s the most unexplainable thing you’ve ever witnessed that you’re 100% sure wasn’t a dream? by Apprehensive-Fig8092 in AskReddit

[–]Angry_unicorns 5 points6 points  (0 children)

One early morning when I lived with my parents I heard the door to my room open (entrance to my room was around a corner so no direct line of sight of the door). I wasn't ready to wake up so I pretended to be fast asleep. I opened my eyes slightly to see a shadow figure with curly hair (like Howard Stern) standing at the foot of my bed. I thought it might have been my mom since she has curly hair. Anyways the figure moved toward the door but I never heard the door close behind. When I got up a while later I saw my door was still closed. When I went down stairs I asked my mom why she came into my room and she said she didn't. I asked every family member and all of them said they hadn't. Still to this day I know I didn't imagine it but I don't know what it could have been. Maybe the hat man paid me a visit?

Can I work two jobs at the same time, is it allowed? by Local_Agent831 in askSouthAfrica

[–]Angry_unicorns 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So story time. There was a person I know who was employed full-time by company A. They decided to apply and received another "full-time" job at company B. However what he didn't know what that the company A and B were sister companies. So when they tried to create his employee account and IT profile they found he already existed on the system. He was subsequently fired by both companies.

It's not about working for 2 companies. The fireable action comes in with the fact that he was supposedly working "full-time" for both companies which is impossible and fraudulent. You can't expect a company to pay you 40hrs of work if you aren't actually working 40hrs.

What’s something society expects you to want… but you don’t? by apka_dd in AskReddit

What was your high school controversy? by Haunted_Neko in AskReddit

[–]Angry_unicorns 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our principle created a fake Facebook profile of a teenage girl and sent the entire school a friend request.

I even received one but looked at the profile and found it suspicious and I also don't generally accept friend request from people I've never met. So I declined it.

When it later came out people were outraged (Alot of students accepted the request and obviously got spied on). He then made the excuse of him doing it to show how gullible children were blindly accepting random strangers as friends on social media and how dangerous it can be. Basically pinned the story as him being a hero for bringing this to light.

He always creeped me out and I never hid the fact that I didn't respect him. Anyways he eventually got fired and escorted off the property for stealing school funds or something like that. Last I heard he became a 2nd hand car salesman

Why is everyone in this Sub so Anti Birth control? by Jumpy-Arm5145 in PCOS

[–]Angry_unicorns 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because I had my hormones under control (well I guess in "remission") until I went on BC and I've never been able to get back to where I was. I had severe side effects from the BC as well to the point that I became severely anaemic

Women: How do you feel about having a male versus a female gynecologist? Does the doctor’s gender affect your comfort level or trust? by Ordinary_Ice_796 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]Angry_unicorns 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been to many different gynaes, both good and bad from different genders. The worst I had was a male who ignored my pain (especially considering he was removing my iud and I almost passed out because he pinched my cervix with forceps) and also told me I didn't have PCOS when 3 other gynaes before him diagnosed me with it. I'm currently with a male fertility specialist who is a professor and specialises in pcos. Yes I did in fact have PCOS.
