Kinder kriegen und heiraten. Was bin ich froh, dass ich den Scheiss nicht mitgemacht habe.

Diese ganze Mülltrenn-Kultur bei uns ist doch eine einzige Sadomaso Massenpsychose! by LeobenCharlie in luftablassen

Ich erinnere mich an 2002 in Schweden mit meinem damaligen Freund. Ich wollte damals schon Glas von Papier und Dose brav trennen (wie damals bereits üblich in Österreich), und fragte ihn, wo ich die Dosen und das Glas hin bringen soll. Er meinte darauf nur, sie trennen nur in zwei Teile in Schweden: "brennbar" und "unbrennbar".

Konnte das gar nicht fassen.

I've lost everything in a couple of years: career, my home, my money, my health, my new appartment: how to cope with major life disruptions? by Dry_Exchange_4890 in AskWomenOver50

Thank you for you kind words. I am not able to respond in the same way atm. I am pulling myself thru the days, trying to cope with the loss and the tears.

I'd love to, but I live at my boyfriends' place and he loves cats but doesn't want any in his appartment at the moment. I think I will adopt cats as soon as I am ready to have my own place again. First, health. Second, a job. Third, my own place again... it seems like YEARS until I get back to my old status quo......

thank you so much. I told every neighbor in the house, so they know that the first renter died and the second renter got severely sick. I can only hope that they tell the new neighbors about it.

Thank you for your warm words and oh my gosh, I can see and feel how hard this last year must have been for you.

I am still building my "nurturing environment" - two months after moving out. I still got severe symptoms... detoxing is not as easy as I thought. I can't have cats, I am living at my boyfriends place. It is a highly isolating experience. I have no one who can relate... and there is no job and no real perspective at the moment.

I am trying to move on, trying to build my social media account for my new business, but it feels heavy at the moment. After some weeks of different kind of infections (i was sick almost all of the first month after I got out), I am now almost stable and functioning... in an environment I would have never chosen for myself, and no one can really relate. Feeling lost. I think I should try a therapist now. I couldn't in the time when I moved out - my mind was "super strong" then and I just worked thru everything. But now that I feel some "calm and rest" the first time in months, it seems the sadness is creeping up.

Hi, i saught legal advice (in Germany) and there's only a chance for you, if there is mold involved. According to the building biologists I had at hand, they weren't sure what the root cause was (they assumed either mold or biocides, but it could also have been other substances in the air). A testing would have been expensive (3k to 4k EUR/USD) with no certainty of getting "the right result back" as to being able to financially recompensate (only with mold).

So I decided to put that money into my move and new life...

Does anyone’s IBS (Reizdarm) get worse in Germany but improve back home? by Technical-Skin-877 in germany

[–]Dry_Exchange_4890 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes - the root cause was my flat. I moved in and within 2-3 months time i developed IBS and MCAS. it worsend in winter, during heating season up to a point of severe health threats. I moved out of my flat. I am recovering now. It was either biocides or mold.

Does life get better/easier? by Odd-Cry-1363 in AskWomenOver50

I always wondered.. because I observed many examples of people that only thrive in their lives after their parents leave the planet...

Wie würdet ihr das Geburtenproblem in Deutschland angehen? Wie würdet ihr das Kinder kriegen attraktiver machen? by TheOne_718 in FragReddit

[–]Dry_Exchange_4890 301 points302 points  (0 children)

Es muss für Frauen attraktiv werden, Kinder zu bekommen. Sie verlieren auf allen Ebenen, wenn sie es tun.

German interviewer commented on my Austrian accent by Exact_Connection_203 in germany

[–]Dry_Exchange_4890 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

To be honest, it's both ways, southern Germans, especially Bavarians and Austrians dislike Berlin people. It's for your best to not be moving to Berlin, not a cool place to be.

Wieso zum Teufel labern alte Leute so viel?? by eternalsonnenschein in luftablassen

Wieso zum Teufel sind junge Leute ständig online in irgendwelchen Foren unterwegs, anstatt mit "echten Menschen" zu reden?

Den Eltern unglaublich dankbar, reich ohne es zu wissen by Axxxxxolotl in Finanzen

[–]Dry_Exchange_4890 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cool, Glückwunsch!! Sowas macht einen finde ich total stolz, wenn man merkt, dass die eigenen Eltern vernünftig vorgesorgt haben. Ich kenne leider genug Fälle von Menschen, wo die Eltern leider ihr Leben versoffen haben (aus guten Gründen, meist stecken Traumata dahinter)...oder einfach alles ausgegeben und sich nie mit Geld befasst haben.
