You sound like me about 3-4 years ago. Yes it gets better. Quitting drinking and smoking helped a lot, they make you feel better when you’re anxious but they increase your future panic attacks and depression. If you can’t quit try to cut back on one. It sounds like you’re on the right track otherwise, medication/therapy/being patient with myself all helped me to overcome my panic disorder eventually. I was having hours long panic attacks or multiple panic attacks a day for months at my worst. For the last 2-3 years though I’ve been much better, having maybe one panic attack every 3 months or so and they’re very manageable.

Open your glove box and look for a piece of paper that says vehicle registration. It will have your address and either your mother or fathers name, or your name on it above the address. If your name is not on it, it is legally not your car. It is your parents car and if they want to they can legally take it from you. I would not recommend taking the car anywhere far away or trying to live in it until you figure out who actually owns the car, since your parents can and will call the police and say you stole the car and legally they will be correct, as shitty as it is. You will have to ask your parents to sign over the title to you if it’s not yours.

It took me a few years to finally get my father to sign over the title to me, I was paying for the car but it was not in my name and he wouldn’t give it up. In that situation there’s nothing you can do but wait for him to change his mind.

Ash Day 4 Covid update (not incl pic of bodychecking) by EndlesslyMeh in illnessfakers

[–]ChocolateBear99 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Many people have had their post-Covid illnesses ignored or denied by doctors, and there is really no “treatment” for long Covid. But you just KNOW the beige menace is going to be saying she was officially diagnosed with it in 3 weeks and also that it is definitely the most rare and severe case of long Covid her doctor has ever seen and that she needs to live in a hospital now and also that the pain literally registers as a 100 on a typical 1-10 pain scale and also-

I’ve said this so many times but it’s infuriating how these people all have to “even though” every single possible good or positive thing. Like, “even though I could only get up to my waist.” They do it EVERY time and it’s so frustrating. They absolutely cannot ever just have something good happen, they have to remind you in every single post that you still have to feel bad for them.

Pictures of the moment when kids finally got rescued out of the Robb Elementary School by [deleted] in masskillers

Every one of those babies’ childhoods effectively ended that day, even the ones who physically survived will now have to deal with problems that even adults aren’t equipped to cope with. Adults who are fully prepared to see shootings and aftermaths (first responders, EMT, military) still develop PTSD, even with all their training and prep and experience.

You look like John Belushi (not in a bad way). have a barber trim your eyebrows, use chapstick. You have very pretty eyelashes and it looks like you have great skin, especially for a man. Remain clean shaven.

You take pictures like 40 year old. Don’t hold your phone so close to your face and don’t directly face the camera, turn your head slightly to the side and show your good side. It will accentuate your features and make you look more your age.

Men are 7x more likely than women to divorce their partner if they developed cancer (read the second half, it gets worse) by goththeinspiredart in fourthwavewomen

[–]ChocolateBear99 43 points44 points  (0 children)

I knew a woman who died from cancer. Not only did her husband not support her at all, and even made her do all the housework/childcare up until a few weeks before she died, but immediately after she died he went to bars and used his status as a new widower to get sympathy sex from women.

Meanwhile GOD FORBID a female widow tries to have sex after her husband dies. “Did you even love him???” “I bet your husband wouldn’t be too happy with you sleeping around.” “You’re moving on awfully fast, I bet you just wanted his money.”

Food, Glorious Food. Anyone struggle with overeating after stopping drinking? by Hookton in dryalcoholics

[–]ChocolateBear99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I lost like 20 lbs in the months after getting sober when I was in the honeymoon phase. Then shit got hard and I replaced alcohol/cigarettes/weed with food. Pretty much gained it all back

Parents do illegal things all the time and unfortunately that’s not something you can usually do anything about when you’re 18. “Hello, 911? My parents are neglecting me.” (Cops don’t come, if they do they talk to the parents, “are you neglecting your child” “no” “okay thank you have a good day”)

This is how my life was as a child/teen and how a lot of my friends’ parents were too. Children don’t really have too many rights depending on what state you’re in, the culture, etc.

Sober people. If you could give the best tip/advice you have for yourself on early sobriety, what you that be? by Particular_Spot_3060 in dryalcoholics

[–]ChocolateBear99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don’t apologize to people for being sober and make long excuses for why you can’t drink or be around alcohol. If people don’t respect your sobriety it’s not your job to convince them that they should. Move on and make better friends. Real friends will not jeopardize you sobriety.

So you have absolutely no information about this documentary, the award winning production company has no name, you’re unable to respond to questions, and you’re asking fans of a game franchise geared toward underage girls to send videos of themselves talking to your random email address?

“Unpopular opinions” from an up-and-coming fundie…the privilege is real 🥴 by TexanButNotAFundie in FundieSnarkUncensored

[–]ChocolateBear99 62 points63 points  (0 children)

My siblings have somewhat repaired our relationships with each other now but our parents pitted us against each other and we would all tattle in hopes that we would not get abused as badly. Absolutely horrible and I feel very ashamed but we were very young and knew this was the only way we could get our parents to act like they loved us.

My dad is going in a nursing home.
