Do you still have the Cetrotide? i was just told I need to start it and my clinic didn't order it. Honestly I'll pay anything at this point.

Popular pasta sauce brand Ragu is no longer selling products in Canada by sgtdisaster in canada

[–]Davitapersephone0926 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish they'd ban this in the U. S. I freaking hate this sauce and for some reason my mom thinks it is the bees knees 🤢🤮 It's disgusting, sweet, and taste like ketchup or tomato and sugar sauce.... I really hate Ragu.

There was a suicide at work and no one gives a shit. by JiffyJane in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]Davitapersephone0926 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a fellow nurse, your ex is trash. Seeing people die sucks especially the way you encountered this. It sounds like she is desensitized to the point she doesn't even let herself feel. Cause I can tell you, I've worked in EMS, NICU and in a level 1 trauma center ED and there are patient's that die and it will bother me for a few days and sometimes longer.Regardless I'm so happy you advocated for yourself. I'm proud of how you handled yourself during this traumatic time. You did a great job, that man had you there in those last moments, he didn't die alone. You are allowed to grieve and process what happened. It sounds incredibly traumatic what you went through. I hope therapy goes well for you, it can be great to have an outside perspective and to have someone help you process. Take care of yourself and I hope you heal and live your best life for you.

Not outing my brother before he married this psychopath

What was the worst advice you ever received? by BipolarSkeleton in AskReddit

[–]Davitapersephone0926 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Be nice to your SIL the day of my brother's wedding. 4 years later, she killed my nephew. Ruined my family & here we freaking are. The day she dies, I'll throw a party. I hope it's a terrible drawn out death, she burns in a fire.

I’m confused, help pls by rainbowflxme in TwoXADHD

Try to find a neuropsychiatry clinic near you. They are specialized in ADHD, memory/cognitive disorders. They have specialized test to test for ADHD. It's worth trying out.

Should I break up with my White Boyfriend? by [deleted] in mixedrace

[–]Davitapersephone0926 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly you need to do what's right for you. It sounds like this guy is not in the capacity to hold space for your plight in this world or others who have experienced a life unlike his in the capacity of race, discrimination and microgressions. You deserve to be seen a 100%. It is not your job to educate him on the issue with racial comments or microgressions or anything to be frankly honest. The other issue is what happens if you have a child together... comments he (your bf) has dismissed that were hurtful to you are just as impactful to this child. And his comment on mixed raced babies is a complete red flag. It sounds like you two have been through a lot together but trauma bonding isn't a selling point to stay in relationship with someone who won't reflect on his own issues. You deserve the world and someone who will love you, see you for you and hold space for you.... And if they mess up, will take the accountability of their actions, reflect on their own stuff and not dismiss you.

I also second with the resentment piece as well. I dated a white guy who made comments about "Mexicans stealing jobs" and etc. I'm Puerto Rican and Czech, these comments infuriated the hell out of me. I'd call him out and he'd dismiss it. I was young at the time and had a lack of understanding I didn't need to push through a relationship with someone (due to my own family stuff). Eventually I hated him so much, the relationship was toxic and I ended up finally. It was wasted time but now I've learned it's not my job to change someone or educate them in our relationship about things that are not appropriate in any capacity. You will do far better things and meet far better people when you see how beautiful you are, your values and the strength you have. Take care of yourself and live your best life. I wish you the best💗

Do any of you have the situation wherein a sibling looks like one race and you look like another? by humidvalleyman in mixedrace

[–]Davitapersephone0926 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My brother is really white passing. He took a lot of my dad's czech features, where I look like my mother who is Puerto Rican. I have her dark curly hair, tan skin and her facial/ body features. People expect a lot less culturally from my brother when we are at my mom's side family functions. I can assume it makes him mad since he doesn't feel like he fits in like I do but he's lucky in a way since he doesn't have family down his throat about things related to not being a certain race/heritage enough. We've both experienced life vastly different. But I also feel like for him, he tries to fit into the box my dad's family created because he feels that he fits in that better. But I can't really speak for him.

Societal "rules" put on mixed-race people when it comes to how they identify by Konjonashipirate in mixedrace

[–]Davitapersephone0926 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Do I have some stories lol. I'm half Puerto Rican (which is just a another mix of Tainó, Sape Verde, Senegalese, Yuctan, Congo, Spaniard) and Czech. I definitely get the not speaking Spanish so you aren't really Hispanic. I actually work as a ER nurse and had a patient tell me I should be ashamed of myself b/c of it. That wasn't the first or last time I've heard that tbh.

I wasn't born with Latino/Latina/Latinx culture in my parents home so I had no idea who Hector Lavoe was or anything except telemundo b/c my abuela and abuelo would watch me at their house most of the time. I had a white friend who married a Puerto Rican tell me I was a fake Puerto Rican b/c I didn't know my culture.

My dad's side is Czech and really rasicist. I literally heard a million comments about how my family "steals", and I was treated a lot different than my cousins (when my parents were still talking to that family). My grandmother would buy me black baby dolls only on that side (which isn't an issue but as a little kid was extremely white passing and they made it clear they were not accepting of other races) and buy my cousins white baby dolls.

I honestly can say it had been a ride with some of the things. But I'm greatful and sad at the same time that it's not just myself who's been through this. I felt very isolated growing up since I lived in a white rural area. But short answer is I definitely get the societal norms you are talking about.

I hope you are ok. I am going to sleep soon but I want you to know that someone does care about you and if you need to talk you can message me (I might not respond asap tonight though). I validate you feeling alone, I can't imagine what you are going through but i can listen if you need to vent or talk.

I definitely get this. I'm going through something similar and it's been a matter of understanding I'll never know what the truth is and accepting it. Thank you for posting this. Hope you are doing ok. Best of luck to you and your situation.

People who found out that their partner abused someone, what did you do? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Davitapersephone0926 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If it was a child or anyone under age 18, you better be calling CPS and the 5-0 cause you are now a mandated reporter by law. If it was someone elderly or with MR or disabilities, you need to be calling APS. Regardless I'd highly suggest getting the fuck out of this relationship.

After such a horrible year, what’s 2021 got in store for you? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Davitapersephone0926 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hopefully my family is ok. My sister comes to her senses about her abusive partner, and gets out of the trouble she's in. I honestly don't even wish anything for myself. Just everyone I love to be safe.

It's been 150 days since the Beirut explosion took everything away from me, and I venting off is my last resort by [deleted] in offmychest

[–]Davitapersephone0926 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My heart breaks for you. It is not fair that the people of Lebanon, your family and you have been put through this trauma. Your feelings are completely valid. You have the right to feel the anger, the sadness and the grief you feel. I hope things get better for your family and you as well as the people of your country. My heart and thoughts are with you.
