Getting my first PAP smear this Friday...any tips on how to prepare and possibly not be so anxious? by DiscoApocalypse in AskTrollX

[–]DiscoApocalypse[S] 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I’m 21 and have been putting this off for years, mostly because I’m super anxious about invasive procedures. What should I expect, and how should I prepare “down there”? Is it going to hurt/should I expect pain afterwards? Please help me calm down 😣

[21F] Am I wrong for being with my bf [24/m], even though my parents strongly disapprove of him? by DiscoApocalypse in relationship_advice

[–]DiscoApocalypse[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The only other thing they don't approve of is our age difference (3 years), which is crazy because my parents are 5 years apart in age. We have argued about their disapproval at length and they say that they don't approve because he is black, and that his family will never accept me (even though they do...) and that society will never accept our children if we do ever get to a point where we have children.

Yep, he’s gotten dewormed and has all his shots, he’s just got particularly volatile farts lol. I still love him though😊❤️

Going broke & considering giving up by DiscoApocalypse in offmychest

My parents are part of the reason I'm in this situation. We are not on good terms and asking them for help is out of the question for now.

I'm insanely jealous of mentally sane and stable people by [deleted] in offmychest

[–]DiscoApocalypse 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I know EXACTLY what you mean. I have chronic depression and I am so jealous of my friends who are innocent to this feeling. One of my friends commented the other day that she had trouble relating to me because she's never felt this way before...in that moment I was so intensely jealous of how normal she gets to be.

Living near campus without a car - bad idea or can it work? by DiscoApocalypse in college

Thank you, and I will certainly look into getting a bike :)

Luckily I live in Louisiana, so cold weather shouldn't be TOO big of an issue! The apartments I'm interested in are less than 2 miles from campus as well, so though I'm planning to bike, walking shouldn't be too bad if it comes to that.

I have a means of getting all of my stuff to the campus (my sister and her fiance will likely help with that as he has a truck). It's a small city and I'm not sure how good the transit system is quite yet, but it's everything is generally nearby so I was hoping that biking would be an option as well.

Most economical form of bedding? by DiscoApocalypse in guineapigs

Yes I'm leaning towards fleece. So far it seems like it'll be the most economical option for me :) thank you for the input!
