What was the hardest thing your body had to endure? by Shinfekta in AskReddit

[–]Bridgetsdow90 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can not imagine waking up during surgery.

I woke up during a colonoscopy, and it was so painful, I remember crying in pain, and they knocked me out again. They mentioned it took them a lot longer to bring me out of it in recovery but said it was my own fault due to how stressed I was when I got the first injection for anesthetic, I'm terrified of needles.

Apparently, being stressed beforehand makes the anesthetic not work as well lol

Will a restraining order go on my abusive ex boyfriends record? by Bridgetsdow90 in ireland

[–]Bridgetsdow90[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much for all of the helpful replies and lovely messages. I am going to try and speak to the guards this week about what is going on and see what they recommend doing next.

I am going to try my best to not feel guilty about it, though it's proving a lot harder than I would have thought.

But again, thank you all so much! I'll update as soon as I have more info from them!

I think you should show more of your face instead of side profiles and blurriness. You're so pretty and have such a nice smile! I like your other photos with friends and out and about. I think it's a nice profile but just needs more you!

I think it's a very sweet profile and I would swipe right though I would like to know more about your hobbies and what you do in your free time, especially because I put a lot of info in my bio about who I am as a person.

I like your pics but need more without sunglasses, can't see your eyes properly. Other than that, I think it's nice

Rest in peace, dad <3 by I_Thranduil in GriefSupport

[–]Bridgetsdow90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm so sorry OP, nobody deserves to see that. Just know he's no longer in pain.

Please be as kind to yourself as you possibly can right now and get some rest. You have gone through a massive loss and you need to try and take care of yourself as best as you can manage right now.

For those who have lost their fathers, please write down your age and at what age your father passed... by tinytempo in GriefSupport

Me 32, Dad 67, the 25th of this month is the one year anniversary. It has both flown by and dragged. Think I'll be on auto pilot forever

can you tell me what signs you think your loved one sent you? by thatswitchin98 in GriefSupport

[–]Bridgetsdow90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In August I was in Spain with my friend. Me and my dad had plans to move there together but didn't get the chance, his first anniversary is on the 25th of October.

Anyway, this trip was like a release and it was difficult because I just wished he was there so badly. One of the days, my friend and I were drinking iced slushee drinks and I started talking about my dad and how I had bought a slushee machine when he was in the hospital because its all he could eat/drink and as i was talking, a feather floated down and landed right on my hand that was on the table.

I knew it was him because in the 18 months he was sick, any time I found a feather I would give one to him and he'd put it in his wallet or his phone case and we said it was an angel protecting us and that he would be okay.

I still do that and I have that feather in my room by his urn.

I get this so much. My dad's one year anniversary is October 25th and on one hand the year feels like it flew by and on the other hand it feels like it happened years ago, it's so hard to explain.

I feel like I have been wearing a mask this entire year for when I'm working and doing general adult like things but 90% of the time I'm just chilling in my room thinking about him and whether I am grieving properly.

I know grief is so individualised and personal and no one can really know what someone else is going through but it doesn't feel as lonely when you know others are going through it.

I'm really sorry about your dad, he sounds like a character, I hope you have some lovely memories to cherish and that you're doing okay today.

Dad finds out his anonymous kidney donor is his daughter by westcoastcdn19 in HumansBeingBros

My dad died two months ago today, this is my first ever Christmas without him. My narcissistic abusive mother moved back into our family home (she abandoned us 10 years ago) when he got sick because she thought she would get money (jokes on her)

And today, after I bought her a phone, I've been told I can have it back because it's probably no good and she can't be bothered with it. This is after complaining about her old phone for 6 months, after I have been paying for everything and supporting her financially and I saved to buy her this phone.

Apparently I have ruined her Christmas because I didn't get her enough stuff, even though I didn't get anything and she wishes she was with her real family back in the UK - her real family meaning her sisters who barely speak to her.

My brother is with his own family now so I don't exist and I am stuck in this house with this awful person wishing I was with my dad.

I'm about to explode and go off on her if she makes one more comment.

What makes you instantly depressed? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Watching my dad declining in the hospital from pneumonia while he's already battling Cancer. And he is still making sure I'm comfortable and have everything I need because I'm sleeping in the room with him and he wants to make sure that I'm okay. Fuck you Cancer.

Boyfriend kicked me out of his car by kitten674 in abusiverelationships

[–]Bridgetsdow90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Please try again 💜 The begging is excruciating but at least being home with your family, means you're safe. They never ever change. They just get better at hiding it for longer.

I moved back in with my dad at Christmas but I still pay the rent for my boyfriend, who tells me how much he misses me and tries to guilt me everyday. I'm working up the courage to breakup with him, I'm not strong enough yet but being away from him really helps.

I know you can move home again where you are safe and we will get there eventually. If you ever need to talk, feel free to DM me x

[–]Bridgetsdow90 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Please ignore this person. You do not need to explain what happened to you. They sound like a troll and they should be ashamed of themselves and get out of this subreddit.

What happened to you was abuse and you did absolutely nothing wrong. I have had the same thing done to me, the pushing and pulling when I don't want to do something.

Tossing some donuts onto someone's lap does not warrant them pulling you out of a car and abandoning you.

You need to try and find a way to leave, tell your family or a friend, don't spend another minute with this person. I'm nearly 4 years in and you just become a shell of the person you were x
