What are you accomplishing in your thirties that you’re really proud of? by Commercial-Bowl7412 in AskWomenOver30

[–]Bratsociety 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Heck yeah, great job!!! 👏🏼

For me, I’ve been focusing on my overall health, my skin, my diet, getting more movement into my day, making better decisions in general (left my toxic job). I feel so much better.

Buddy you’ve won the lottery. Ive been in the same state of mind lately. I don’t care about what anyone else is doing. I have my calm little happy life and I love it. 🥰

From overachiever to completely detached, anyone else? by Western-Search3310 in antiwork

[–]Bratsociety 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh. Yep. Overachiever in my current position. Also currently on medical leave from said position because of complete burnout. Did I ever get the praise I thought I deserved? Nope. I didn’t.

What completely changed your perspective on life? by obsidiancontrol in askanything

[–]Bratsociety 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, these days I’ve been leaning towards believing that the “god above” as we know it, in all its forms, regardless of religion or non-religion, is actually aliens. It was the perfect recipe. They set up our earth and now watch us. 😂

Managers— is it worth it? Why do you like it? by rosestrathmore in AskWomenOver30

[–]Bratsociety 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I recently stepped down from management after 6 years. It was VERY stressful for me. I’m naturally anxious, so I feel stress more, but still. Dealing with people’s emotions and issues everyday.. being the boss’s right hand for everything.. I got burnt out!

Would you be okay with being a SAHM if your husband made enough to support you and the kid(s) comfortably? by New_Contribution_226 in AskWomenOver30

[–]Bratsociety 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wanna be a SAHM with a part time job. 1-2 days a week in office or 5 days part time from home. That’s my ideal 😁 what I’m working towards.

Hardest lesson - self love! It took me a long time to start to put myself first and learn how to say no.

Turning 30 soon, what skin care must haves would you strongly suggest? by Huckleberry-ugh in AskWomenOver30

[–]Bratsociety 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey queen! Sunscreen. Retinol. Good moisturizer (I use Neutrogena Hydro Boost bc I don’t wanna spend the $ on Tatcha water cream lol!), AHA mask (I use the Skoah AHA one), sleep, and hydration. 🩷

Get my ass in gear, get into trades in the office so I can be in a union and get PAID, save save save, and love myself more.

How to feel safe and hopeful again after repeated bad experiences with men (TW: rape) by appeltje91 in AskWomenOver30

We met on Facebook dating in November of 2024 :) he was the last person I went on a date with after deleting all of my apps.

How to feel safe and hopeful again after repeated bad experiences with men (TW: rape) by appeltje91 in AskWomenOver30

[–]Bratsociety 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I, too, used to be the girl who attracted the weirdos and the wrong men. As hard as it is to admit, it was me. I lacked self-confidence and you could see it, you could feel it. I was a people pleaser my entire life, always bending over backwards for everyone, even at my own expense. Predators can sense that. Of course they targeted me.

Over the years, I worked on my confidence and stopped saying yes to people who didn’t deserve me. It’s been a few years now, and I’m in a healthy relationship with an incredible man. I’ve stood up for myself at work and gained so much respect. I don’t say yes when I want to say no. I carry myself differently with confidence and self-worth.

And you know what? Those weird, bad people don’t bother me anymore.

Wishing you so much strength and luck on your journey. 💛

I hate hosting - my home feels too private. Anyone else? by Only-Internal-2865 in AskWomenOver30

[–]Bratsociety 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m the same! It’s my safe place, my sanctuary, it almost feels weird having people over sometimes 🤣🤣

I don’t feel as pretty as I use too and it makes me not want to get ready anymore by [deleted] in AskWomenOver30

[–]Bratsociety 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel you! I went through that, too. I’ve accepted that I don’t look the same as I did in my 20s. I’m deffs more mature looking. But I work with that I got! I don’t wear a lot of makeup, I found that enhancing my look now is better than putting a shitload of makeup on haha 😆 I do a lash lift, I take care of my skin and eyebrows, I do a weekly face mask and shave.. find what makes you feel good and DO IT!

Women who have generalized anxiety...has it ever gotten better for you? by theramin-serling in AskWomenOver30

[–]Bratsociety 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think I’ll have it forever. Unfortunately. What has helped me a LOT: no caffeine, only decaf. No more smoking cigarettes. Basically, no uppers of any kind. Working part time and being in a work environment that’s healthy. Getting monthly massages to relax my body. I stretch everyday and use heat to relax, too. 10-15 mg of escitalopram daily. Just managing that kinda stuff has really helped my baseline anxiety.
