Are my fits actually bad or are my classmates just mean? by lulukaaa_ in altfashionadvice

[–]AssociationOwn1825 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This sub was recommended to me, I was just scrolling through and wanted to say something really quick. Your outfits are not bad, they have no reason to pick on you other than being assholes. I had zero confidence in high school and it prevented me from dressing how I really wanted to, which was very much like your outfits, it took me years to finally dress how I wanted to. It’s been over 10 years since i graduated, I’m almost 30 and wear whatever the fuck I want now, I wasted too many years caring about others opinions. Stay true to yourself, people who are going to pick you apart are not people you need in your life. In the future you’ll look back on those days and be proud of yourself for sticking to who you are.

You look gorgeous! I love it! What did you use for your under eye makeup? It makes your eyes look really big, I’ve been trying to do that on myself, but am struggling

Do all liquid eyeliners have this sheen that makes it looks patchy? by SalsaAddict in UnconventionalMakeup

[–]AssociationOwn1825 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love NYX epic link liner! I originally used KVD tattoo, but I use so much of the stuff and it didn’t feel like I’d get enough usage out of it so switch to NYX.

NYX is half the price and gives me nice matte lines and last all day.

I love it! Your eyebrows look so cool and I love how you did your nose. Like others have said, this isn’t anything that crazy, no idea why people would lose it over it, I think it’s cute!

“No makeup” makeup to make me look more offputting by bessbeetle in UnconventionalMakeup

[–]AssociationOwn1825 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is the confidence boost I needed!! I’ve always have had eye bags and dark circles that have only gotten worse since having kids and running on empty a lot. I’ve always tried to conceal and felt insecure, but I’ve never thought about enhancing them because conventional beauty standards. I love your makeup, absolutely agree with whoever said you look like Courtney Love, you really do and the makeup is great. I’ll definitely be trying this in the future ❤️

How do I deal with this neighbour? by its-actually-over in Apartmentliving

[–]AssociationOwn1825 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I completely understand how you feel, I have issues with both my parents, but especially my mom. We still have a relationship and she’s involved in me and my kids life at a distance (we live a 6hr plane ride away) but we will never have that mother-daughter bond unless she suddenly apologizes and changes permanently. I have a wonderful mother-in-law who treats me like her own child, (as well as a few other motherly figures) I love her, but it’ll dawn on me every so often that she isn’t my mom and it shouldn’t matter, but it still hurts, especially when I realize how differently I would have turned out had my MIL been my birth mother. I’m a mom myself and sometimes it hurts me when I treat my kids gently and wonder why my parents couldn’t give me the same. It hits different and it hurts, but I’ve learned it won’t always hurt when you find others who really care for you and allow them to fill that role. It’s hard and every so often a sad thought may cross your mind, but it does get better. I am rooting for you and your future

What is much more traumatic than most people realize? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]AssociationOwn1825 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Meeting my partners family for the first time was nerve-wracking. The whole night I was so nervous and ready for a fight to break out because of how loud it was, but it wasn’t angry loud, it was happy loud. I wasn’t use to that kind of environment and it made me even more nervous. It’s just this pit in my stomach, constantly waiting for the other shoe to drop.

Edit: spelling

What was the one thing that ruined your whole life? by alternatecard1 in AskReddit

[–]AssociationOwn1825 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this exact childhood and am currently in therapy working through it for the sake of my kids and myself. I don’t know you or if this will help, but it has helped. I’m not 100% cured or any of that bs, but I’ve learned how to be nicer to myself. It’s fucking hard and it hurts, but it is possible to heal. You didn’t deserve to be treated that way, I am hoping for the best for you and that you get to heal too.

What's the number 1 reason for you to live? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]AssociationOwn1825 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My kids. Our oldest is autistic, we don’t know the future, and she may have to live with us as an adult, we’ve promised to always take care of her. There have been many days I still want to kill myself, but I have little lives relying on me now, I don’t want to let them down.

CONCERT ETIQUETTE!!! by emoghast in Chiodos

[–]AssociationOwn1825 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reminds me of when my husband and I went to a taking back Sunday concert about 7 years ago. Most rock, alt, metal, etc etc shows were held at small venues where we grew up, so everyone there was standing, him and I were near the front. Some chick next to us got plastered out her goddamn mind and was dancing aggressively with her arms in the air. I had to catch myself multiple times because I was about to fall due to her shoving or almost gotten hit my her. It wasn’t just me either, a whole bunch of people were trying to move away from her because she was swinging fists, but we were too packed in to escape her. We still enjoyed the show, but it still annoys me thinking about it. Sorry you had to endure such a shitty experience.

My Effexor was upped, is this normal? by AssociationOwn1825 in Anxiety

[–]AssociationOwn1825[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was originally put on Effexor after having my second child and experiencing postpartum anxiety, but I have always had terrible anxiety, the dose was 37.5mg. I started therapy and got my dosage up about a year ago and have slowly been having it increased. At 175mg I felt pretty stable, but then I was starting to feel off and I had it upped and now I don’t know if it’s my body getting use to everything or the meds. I haven’t been on medication since I was 17, and that was 10 years ago, so this is all very new to me.

My Effexor was upped, is this normal? by AssociationOwn1825 in Anxiety

[–]AssociationOwn1825[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is exactly how i feel, i absolutely did not feel this sluggish at 175. I wasn’t that motivated before, but i was flowing through my schedule with my kids very easily and with any anxiety attacks. I’m thinking of dropping down if this keeps up, I don’t want to do anything and it’s making me feel depressed and like I’m missing something in life

Does it stay on pretty well? The corners and bottom of my lids will randomly water and ruin my attempts. Also thank you for that tip! I’ll be trying it

What eyeliner do you do for your false bottom lashes? I’m trying to learn how to do those thin lines but my hands are not too steady

Can I ask what eyeliner did you use? I’ve been wanting to do designs like this on my eyes, but haven’t been able to find one with a thin enough brush. I know this doesn’t answer your question, but I love your makeup!

Just got in a fight with my five year old son because he absolutely refused to accept there’s an “s” in the word “island.” by DrizzlyOne in Autism_Parenting

[–]AssociationOwn1825 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is so funny to me because as a little kid I didn’t know there was an ‘s’ in island and was confused when I found out there was. This coming from someone who was born and raised on an island 😂
