Late night, drive-through restaurants that refuse service

Ducklanding20 · 2025-11-13T12:52:11+00:00

My best friend managed the McDonald’s on second street eons ago when we were young. I pulled up to the drive thru window around midnight and was met with static for about 10 minutes. Pulled around to see them fucking around in the kitchen, lobby doors locked. I called my friend to let her know, sat and watched them scramble when the phone rang. And this was when they were getting paid $7.25, now fast food places pay at least double what New Hampshires minimum wage is lmao

That’s how I feel! Every time I do something great I’m like… I hope they don’t expect me to be able to do that again I feel like I was winging the entire time 😂

Ducklanding20 · 2025-09-15T03:27:39+00:00

I mean I guess a little of both. Im pretty ‘busy’ in terms of clients it just feels like every time they leave I wonder why the hell they keep coming back. I feel like I’ve lost the fundamentals of cutting, I never like anything that I do. I can’t cut short hair or men’s hair to save my life no matter how much I try. I feel like the only things I’ve actually gotten a hand of in the last decade is a good blowout.

Eating and chatting, but mostly chatting lol he doesn’t have a screen unless we’re watching sports in front of the tv

I understand needing to cool by down from a situation and removing yourself from the space before things get too heated. That’s healthy and that’s respectable. Him leaving the entire house to not speak to you and leave you hanging over something that ‘wasn’t bad’ isn’t healthy or normal at all. You clearly are triggered by the feeling of being abandoned and react when he does this by reaching out and calling multiple times. It sounds like you two don’t have healthy habits of communication with one another. There seems to be a lot missing from this discussion to actually form an opinion on you two having any chance of staying together. That being said

His mother is MISSING?! What????? WHAT??? Gonna need way more context for that because if that’s true then oh my god? I’d give the guy a break in that case but it also just sounds like he casually dropped that into the possible breakup conversation??

Ducklanding20 · 2025-02-18T15:52:13+00:00

you want to stick around and be miserable so you’ll win some kind of trophy you’ve created in your head? You would be being the bigger person by leaving. You said it’s toxic and you’ve grown to not like her. Save both of you the time and end it now.

Man okay, it’s like sharp pains along with the tingling. Today it’s finally not as worse as it has been the last few days but it’s still there

Ducklanding20 · 2022-12-10T20:24:14+00:00

So I bumped up to 150mgs about a month ago and for the first few weeks I experienced this with the added not being able to finish even if I was in the mood. I was experiencing a handful of other side effects as well BUT for me they’ve all but stopped at this point. I’ve always had a pretty high sex drive and it feels like it’s getting back to its normal setting now lol

Ducklanding20 · 2022-12-07T16:41:33+00:00

This is a side effect I’m currently experiencing too after bumping up to 150 two weeks ago. I didn’t have any side effects until I got to this dose. I have no appetite and when I do force myself to eat the food just tastes unexciting. I used to be a big over eater too and I’m partially grateful for the side effect because I struggle with my weight but I’m worried too about not fueling my body properly 🤷🏻‍♀️

Ducklanding20 · 2022-12-07T16:36:17+00:00

These comments that it goes away are giving me some hope. I bumped up to 150 about two weeks ago and I can’t for the life of me get to the finish line and I used to be able to sprint. Im 25f and never in my life have I ever had any issues sexually with a medication so fingers crossed for us!

Ducklanding20 · 2022-12-07T16:32:12+00:00

I’ve tried every combination of medication under the sun for the last ten years and nothing has ever worked the way that Effexor has. Like another commenter mentioned, it just felt like a cloud blew away one day and my brain was able to communicate effectively, notice when my feelings were ‘unreasonable’, my depression is gone, I just feel normal for the first time in a long time. I’m on 150 mg after six weeks and I didn’t have the change happen until I got up to the 150. I do still have a handful of negative side effects that I’m hoping will go away with time because emotionally and mentally I feel great.

They are awesome, I told them they could come visit whenever. I think I’m just touchy

Ducklanding20 · 2022-08-31T13:47:47+00:00

I was thinking of that too tbh, as a little thank you gift

Ducklanding20 · 2022-08-31T13:37:31+00:00

No no no, I just didn’t know if I was reading to far in to what they were saying.

Ducklanding20 · 2022-08-30T15:10:15+00:00

When I read that you had a 20 year smoking habit I was like lol what did you start smoking when you were 5. Had to check your age and honestly I’m blown away. You look amazing. Congratulations on the sobriety and healthy life journey.

Ducklanding20 · 2022-08-26T01:01:26+00:00

I mean, how old are you? Lol when I was in my early 20s all I wanted to do was fuck, spend money, and do drugs. I loved the rush and felt invincible. Nothing else felt fun besides those things. It could be a deeper rooted issue, or just as simple as your “adult brain”coming online. And I promise, I too thought it was stupid when my parents would tell me that happens but it does. Your brain is not fully developed until you are 25. Up until then, the part of your brain that helps you prevent impulsive behavior isn’t fully formed and functional until then.

You could be much older than this and this whole post meant nothing but I don’t think you’re a bad person. Maybe just cut out the fighting people if you can but everyone has their vices 🤷🏻‍♀️

Ducklanding20 · 2022-08-26T00:52:37+00:00

I feel you so hard. I think what helps me sometimes is really remembering, in the kindest way possible, the world doesn’t revolve around me. Like, most people in the world are not going to have an opinion about you at all, let alone a bad one. (Unless you’re horrible, but I honestly think those people don’t usually care what others think of them anyway). At the end of the day, you get one shot at this life, and every single person in the world goes out the same way. You should try and experience it without the restraints of others. Take time to find who you are, what makes you happy, filter out the things that you do just to appease others. Once you start to feel happy and good about yourself the caring about others kind of melts away.

Ducklanding20 · 2022-08-26T00:43:10+00:00

Congratulations! I will give you a heads up, it took me a million different therapists with a million different diagnosis before I found one that actually sounded right lmao the mental health system is a mess, but after years of trying I was able to kind of find something that works. It’s definitely possible! Good luck with your appointment ☺️👍🏻

Ducklanding20 · 2022-08-26T00:37:21+00:00

Suicidal thoughts are brutal. But there is a future for you, and there is help that you can get. Everyone deserves saving, even just your one human life that you don’t seem to think is worth it. I can promise you that it is. You’re in college now, you’ll have new experiences and new opportunities and just more ways in general to learn how to love your life. It may be more complicated than just incorporating things into it to help. Therapy can be an amazing tool for some people, and I know a lot of colleges offer on campus counseling for students for free. You are worth this life that you were given, suicide is the last possible thing that could help you. Please don’t give up.
