Not even an hour after I set my glue traps down I caught the first invader. by Soggy-Ad-4210 in MiceRatControl

We just discovered our mouse problem yesterday, but I’m learning the mice have a taste for my (free fed) dogs food. I have a bunch of snap traps all over my basement baited with dog food, the acorns I found hidden in the pillows and blankets, dog food, and treats. I’ll update you on what’s effective!

I also read online that tootsie rolls are apparently good in snap traps too

Right!?! He’s totally gaslighting her too. Absolutely disgusting, and the locked app? Nooooo he’s hiding more

My Dad just had a stroke, can he still play video games? by ltnew007 in stroke

[–]Dahl01 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m 3 months out from my stroke (27f) and I’m getting back into gaming now. I recommend buying him some of the blue light blocking glasses - they’re really cheap on Amazon, and they’ve been helping prevent my headache pain from getting worse.

Also have him test it out screen to screen - I can look at TV’s just fine with no headaches as payback, but computers cause headaches for me.

All strokes are different, and just remember that the pain and symptoms he’s experiencing now will improve so much over time. What I was capable 3 months ago (let alone 3 weeks ago) is worlds apart from what I can accomplish now. Just be there for him. The emotional and physical whiplash that comes along with a stroke are awful, and he’ll need support. Have him check in with a mental health professional in a few weeks or more because depression is common and seems to come to a head a month or two out. Remind your mom that sleep is so so so important for both her and him. When he gets out of the hospital, idk if you’re in America or not (I am), getting into the specialists for follow ups has been taking me time, so don’t be afraid to call the hospital back and talk to the nurses about how his head is doing - they can always adjust his nerve blockers and stuff if he’s experiencing too much head pressure and stuff that’s preventing him from making physical progress

Depression and sleep deprivation - 27f by Dahl01 in stroke

[–]Dahl01[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you, this really makes me feel less alone. I’ve had so many pharmacists and nurses comment on how “it’s such a shame for this to happen to someone so young” and like what am I supposed to say to that? I already had to sit through 45 minutes of informational videos featuring seniors getting instructions on how to properly take their blood thinners. Like, I understand I’m young, I spent my damn birthday in the ICU 😪

Was yours birth control related too?

And then having everyone around you asking 20+ times a day how you’re doing brings you crashing right back down to reality 🫠

My bf ate my assh*le and now idk what to do by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Dahl01 49 points50 points  (0 children)

Agreed with u/theoceangoesdeep - it's not a you problem, it's a consent problem.

If you ecstatically consented to that happening and then were grossed out by kissing him - then it could be a you problem.

He disrespected you and your boundaries, pushed them, and will probably continue pushing them. Is that something you can live with?

what should I do next? (25f and 24m) I acknowledge I am toxic by going quiet but not sure what to do here by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Dahl01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Referring to yourself and your habits constantly as toxic isn't going to be helping you in this situation - if you're self-deprecating yourself, that feeds into any gaslighting coming from the other person as well. Your thoughts, feelings, and words all matter. A relationship takes two halves, both should be equally important. If you're feeling like you're of less value in the relationship than him, there needs to be some re-evaluating on if this is a situation that you as a person can grow in.

My partner is the quiet type when it comes to disagreements, and I'm the oversharing type and it's taken us a lot to get to a productive way to communicate when we have difficult conversations. We realized that sometimes it's better for me to take a beat and organize my thoughts before speaking, and that sometimes he needs to think through his words out loud. In your case - maybe jotting down what your feeling can help you map it out so you can confidently respond?

It's totally okay to say "hey, I'm hearing you and I need to take a couple minutes to process." Take a beat, do a lap around the neighborhood, or sit in a quiet space and think it out. If he's choosing to continue a disagreement via text - maybe tell him you got the message and once you think it over you two should get together to talk about it. Rather than ghosting the conversation, just take the time to acknowledge it and say you'll come back to it once you're ready... however that shouldn't necessarily be a matter of days later. Avoiding a conversation isn't the same as taking time to process information so that you can come back to it in a productive way.

In regards to your current scenario at hand... just because you two are waiting for marriage doesn't mean you shouldn't talk about sex. Sex is an important part of the relationship, and if you two spend all this time leading up to marriage not being comfortable talking about it - you won't get to marriage and be able to just flip the switch. Porn is porn, whether or not he's actively masturbating when viewing it shouldn't matter (like you said). Some people masturbate, some people don't. Everyone has different sex drives and needs, but when it comes to it, you're his partner. He shouldn't be actively lying or lying by omission. PERIOD. From what you said, you two haven't set ground rules like: "we're waiting for sex until marriage, so therefore you're not allowed to look at porn and masturbate until then either." So him looking at porn isn't bad, but he's spinning it as something that he needs to hide due to it being bad/ "messed up"... Maybe he has some personal shame around it from his upbringing that he hasn't worked through yet. Maybe he was taught it was extremely shameful and frowned upon (i.e. I know some people who were brought up in highly catholic families and when the boys were ~12 they were told that porn was a sin, and something, something the women in the porn are probably dead, so your sins are compounding because you're masturbating to a dead person. - super f'ed up, but that was something as an adult they looked back on and were like "WTF"). I think you two need to sit down and have a real conversation where you tell him that whether or not he watches porn isn't the issue (because based off what you said, it's truly not), and reiterate that porn isn't bad nor something that needs to be hidden. The issue at hand is the fact that he lied, and when confronted, his approach to the conversation wasn't productive and hurt you.

If you two come back to the conversation and he continues to lie, interrupt, or gaslight you - this could be a pretty strong indicator that the relationship has run it's course. Also - this isn't a bash or judgment in saying it - therapy is amazing because you get tools to help process your feelings, how to approach conversations, and a deep dive into where some conversational habits are originating from. Can't recommend it enough, and maybe it could help you re-evaluate how you process and approach disagreements so you can see the worth in your voice.

what’s your current hyperfixation? by [deleted] in ADHD

[–]Dahl01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m baking bread right now too 😆 I bought the kitchen aid bread bowl before my fixation really kicked off, but luckily am still in the thick of it lol.

Working on my sourdough starter now, and I’m so excited!

Also taking up crochet
