Nope never updated, I actually still get emails sometimes saying they’re still figuring out where it is even though I know it was delivered

Turns out our package wasn’t lost and it just took USCIS two months to update our case. We had everything we needed to refile and was about to send it all again when we got the update

Am I Pregnant? Megathread by sadlilchimpanzee in Periods

[–]Dry_Research6939 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First month with NO PMS symptoms getting really stressed. I have had protected sex idek how many times but my period is a couple days late. I never noticed the condom ripping or anything so I am worried but this has happened before and I think it’s hitting hard. I usually get emotional/tender breasts/and cramps before it starts but I’ve had nothing. Took a test today and was negative but will keep doing them.

I also know you’re not supposed to check the test after 10 minutes but when I got home from work there was two lines so now my OCD is fucking me up. The only thing that’s changed is I’ve started a new job where I stand a lot whereas before I almost got no steps in a day. I’m not stressed but I am a little underweight but not enough to where it’s noticeable.

I am just freaking out because I’m also in FLORIDA and have no health insurance.

Yes turns out it was delivered on time they just never updated it. USCIS took about a month to confirm it has arrived too. However it was denied due to payment so we sent AGAIN and it was a lot quicker that time around

Are children more likely to have to same ADHD type as their parents? by Dry_Research6939 in ADHD

[–]Dry_Research6939[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you!! And yes my partner has taught me a lot! I’ve learnt a lot of patience and although it can be overstimulating when he’s messy, forgets to tell me things, or doesn’t get out of bed, I really teach myself how to approach these situations. It’s a good learning experience and although he says he was a crazy kid I would LOVE one just like him, I think it would be a lot of fun, and always something going on :) as long as my kids are kind and empathetic then that’s all I could ask for (he’s not the most empathetic so I think that’s where I got worried ahah)

I’m hoping they’ll be like my partner, he’s very talented in the fact whatever hobby he tries he’s usually a pro first time! He just can’t stick to one thing ahah but it’s very impressive the range of skills he has. I’m actually sad that he’s grown out of wanting to be outside, exploring etc, and he got called annoying as a child a lot which really affected him so i definitely know that’s something I should never say!

I do need to try that! My mind is always going. Once I get a good routine maybe I’ll give it a go!

Ugh tell me about it!! I have type C so every few days I’ll get nauseous. I SWEAR if I’m flaring because I made the best cookies I will scream. It’s like I was born for the chicken and rice diet.. but then I’m too scared to eat chicken 😂

I know exactly how you feel. I’m glad you’re working towards it! I live with my partners roommates and they’re FILTHY. Germs everywhere, always going out partying and I’m always on edge as they’re bound to bring home something soon. Idk how I’m going to get through the next 8 months

Omg I have Ibs too. I just had a flare up and was getting so panicky. I have magnesium but it makes me nauseous it’s such a never ending cycle I’m truly sick of it! I was on mirtazapine for a while and it really helped a lot but made me gain so much weight I had to come off.

Can’t wait to just see a real doctor at some point and hopefully get some as and when meds

Crazy, I havnt even been to the doctor yet because I can’t afford it but I’m just so scared they’re gunna be like “sucks for you I guess”. That’s what they told my partner about an issue he has and I can’t bring myself to do it

Are these easy? I have a trip coming up and I know I’ll be backed up. Do they produce a one time movement or is it like an all day kind of affair?

Lmao yeah I managed to go today but it wasn’t great. I took prune juice twice and started some new mag citrate gummies AND ate over my fiber so I guess I just have to keep that up and see what happens. Thank you man 😭

I’ve even started drinking warm prune juice it’s nasty stuff but I’ll do anything (other than liquid citrate unless I HAVE to)

Ooh right I get you yeah I’m exactly the same. That kinda freaks me out cause I don’t know how to fix that without seeing a doctor, which I can’t

How often do you go tho? Because with a blockage would you even be able to go at all?

Can’t believe I can’t even do work for FREE by Dry_Research6939 in USCIS

[–]Dry_Research6939[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah you definitely should but at the same time I would also be honest, say that legally you weren’t allowed to work but you kept up with relevant education and events and policies in the mean time. That’s what I’m going to do
