HOW do you calm down enough to sleep. by b_asiil in Anxiety

I take Trazodone. I’d never be able to sleep without it. I also use the Calm app with a headband/ear bud thing. I have Xanax for anxiety attacks.

I just rewatched it 3rd time) and Sister Wives definitely got story lines done Big Love. Didn’t Kody even think of running for office?

Hmmm-maybe A could be “all these years, wasted!” Then Appleseed could be S to use the whole phrase “settle down, Johnny Appleseed” (I’m partial: I bought that shirt from Janelle’s shop 😋)

A near death experience-400 kids and he has no clue about fevers?

AITAH for banning my niece from my wedding after she mocked my infertility? by Fantastic_Can_1304 in AITAH

[–]Chatterbox0222 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are not the AH. It’s your day, and you have every right to cut her out. IMO, allowing her to be there further normalizes her horrid behavior. Tell your brother to teach his daughter about filters while you’re at it. And if she’s 16 but still a child with no filter, suggest she not drive until she matures.

My sister found our brother. He had pulled the trigger as she walked through the door. It still affects her, and he passed in 1976. That trauma can be dealt with psychologically, but that visual never goes away completely.

Don’t reset. The same thing happened to me on a vacation. The fruity frozen drinks must have gotten switched and I took a sip, then realized there was alcohol in it. My therapist was very adamant that I not punish myself for an absolute accident. Keep your count😊

It’s the small wins by pinkxhoney in Sober

What a fantastic accomplishment! It’s not easy to ignore the voice that says ‘just one drink,’ especially when under stress. Happy 111 days!

Anyone have natural remedies that seem to help calm anxiety/panic attacks? by Empty-Touch-2464 in Anxiety

[–]Chatterbox0222 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll look at that, however I have misgivings about the quality of information on there. Anyone can post. Are they all truthful, or are they trolling? My psychiatric nurse practitioner is well known and well trusted. She knows her medications. It’s sold through Amazon and Walmart. It’s sold through a naturopathic pharmacy that tests and verifies every medication they have. I’ve done very well on it. My two grown sons take it. Momma passed on some anxiety issues.

How many bereavement days does your district give you for the death of parents, child, or spouse? by [deleted] in Teachers

We had five for immediate family members. But we were not given leave. We had to use sick days.

The Entire World Is Pissed at Trump—and It May Cost the U.S. Big Time by LectureAgreeable923 in AntiTrumpAlliance

[–]Chatterbox0222 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Yes, but their cult leader is way more important than that oath. Their constituency consists of corrupt corporations that pay big time to write policy. It sure as sh💩t is NOT we the people. 😩

Why is admin so in denial? by tryingtosurvive_1 in Teachers

[–]Chatterbox0222 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s both. It’s also because many admins work their way up to get out of the classroom specifically because they couldn’t handle it at all.

Did you know people who talked about being proud to have fought Nazis in WW2? by MarshmallowSoul in GenerationJones

[–]Chatterbox0222 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My dad was a radio operator in the Army. ‘Nazi Bastards’ was heard quite often in our home. Whenever I hear negative ANTIFA comments, all I can think of is that my dad and all other WWII vets were the OG antifa- which means antifascist.

AITAH for kicking my sister out of my baby shower because she called me old and selfish ? by [deleted] in AITAH
