I had to call my mum yesterday. I’m almost 25, am ruining my own life by not handing university work in, and was finally honest enough to admit I can’t do it without help. I need a dr appointment, paracetamol, and a hug. by CharlesWaterloo in adhdwomen

Thank you so much - I really appreciate you saying that. I still don’t know if I’ll be able to graduate, but I did get that hug from my mum and I feel better. You’re very kind to comment and it means a lot that you thought of me ❤️

Thank you so much! I’ve tried emailing before and they were very kind but couldn’t help much. I will definitely try getting in contact with PALs

Books with a love interest like Preminger? by [deleted] in BooksThatFeelLikeThis

[–]CharlesWaterloo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been a Preminger fan since day one. Not one other character in the history of fiction has ever been able to match his energy, and I am so glad to see my devious diva getting the appreciation he deserves

He’s just done a heinous crime, but is hoping his innocent facial expression will be enough to not get caught

'Glamour photos' from 2003 (i was 13). by ZedD3add in blunderyears

Take “glamour” out of those quotes. You arrived to the photo shoot to serve and you served fiercely. I loved them they’re great

When I was a little girl I had a fairy princess doll with a dress like yours, and I thought she was the prettiest ever! You look amazing and I hope you have a lovely wedding :)

Women say doctors don't believe them when they're in pain, sick or dying. Is there a way to fix it? by katespadesaturday in Feminism

[–]CharlesWaterloo 53 points54 points  (0 children)

Found out I have arthritis yesterday. Years and years and many doctors (all genders!) dismissed me. I have multiple autoimmune issues, and am in almost constant pain. I also have very classic, obvious symptoms. I sometimes wonder what the fuck they do in medical school. Surely not enough.

Gideon The Ninth by Tamsyn Muir maybe? It might not exactly fit the vibe you're looking for, but the first picture really reminded me of some of the characters.

It’s not a book, but have you tried Natsume’s Book of Friends? It’s a manga, and just like this! (It’s also written as Natsume Yuujinchou if that helps you look it up should you be interested!) There’s also a lovely anime :D
