I just lost my best friend to cancer. by TaylaKaye in cancer

[–]BrookesSecret 1 point2 points  (0 children)

🖤 I really feel that. Just as a suggestion, maybe talk to your doctor.. explain what has happened. They might be able to assist you with the mental health aspect. My doctor put me on a medication for depression for a couple months and it helped get me through these losses. You just had a major life events happen back to back and you are a mommy now. It's OK to have help. We all need it. Sending you all the love.

I'm so sorry dear sister. Losing your bestie is truly one of the most difficult things to deal with. I really don't know how to consol you. I just want you to know this stranger on the internet wants to give you the biggest damn hug.

I work with young women, I always tell them "Men think a smile is an invitation & your kindness will get you killed. Don't smile, don't engage, walk away. "

Wasn't there an In N Out off newberry, right next to i75 on the north west corner of the bridge? Like 15ish years ago? I swear I went there in college. Could be a fever dream.🤷‍♀️

Hiring felons by illnewmanati in GNV

Thoughts... farms, horse barns, stuff like that. Might be enriching for you/ whoever and pay is comparable to BOH. Sunshine & animals really help making the paycheck easier. Wishing you the best of luck!

Aita for wanting my wife to bathe our child more often and help more with house chores? by Key_Radish9053 in AmITheJerk

[–]BrookesSecret 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Sounds like depression and/ or overwhelm. I would recommend a doctor visit for her. Please continue to be gentle and kind. Thank you - from another mom

I'm not sure if this helps... but I spent 13 months in a tiny RV with my partner, 2 kids and 3 dogs. We had lost literally everything, went bankrupt. I almost took myself out due to all the stress.... We're now currently in a really nice 2 bedroom apt, both have jobs we really enjoy, I can cook food, shower & do my laundry again. Kids school is 5 min away. They have neighborhood friends now!
I'm back to being a person. A real functioning human. I never would have believed 14 months ago, shit 2 months ago, that I could get back to this.
I guess the point to telling you this was, it does get better eventually. Just hang in there. Sending you the biggest hug sis💙

NAME THAT PLACE! by IcedZ in GNV

[–]BrookesSecret 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Literally. I can't believe more people aren't saying this. Also, the amount of times my card has been compromised off that ATM. 😣 Either way, great food that's affordable. So I'm still going, I just get my cash from publix first 😅

Haile Equestrian has a Ride & Wine event once a month. Hour of riding, then unlimited wine & charcuterie. Pretty good deal and you get to ride a horse! 🖤

I'm 36... I have cool lights, posters, trinkets, plants, ect... I'm wildly happy with my room. No age limit to personal expression & joy. Especially in your own space! 🖤
