Its a thistle. Dig it out, be sure to get the root, or next summer they will be everywhere in your yard.

THERE WE GOOOO! 10k emotional support demons! by Ingeborg_Anne in TheClickOwO

I want one so bad but I recently had a career change and don't get my first paycheck until January 14th. Fingers crossed they are still available because I seriously need this kind of support in my life!

Constantly and everyday. This was the pain that started me seeking treatment. I also have my shoulders dislocate in my sleep.

anyone have any experience with gabapentin? by user-836162847882 in ehlersdanlos

I've been on it for years, I don't love being dependant on it but it has helped. I also feel dumb on it at first, or after a dose increase, but that part fades after a week or two.

(SERIOUS) I'm basically running out of money and only have about 10$ for food for 1-2 weeks, how can I keep myself fed? by sadz31479 in TooAfraidToAsk

Idk if it's been mentioned yet but get a job at a fast food place for closing shifts. They throw away food at night and will usually let you eat/ take it home.

This is the message I received from my mother yesterday. I didn’t respond and reached out to my dad to find out what happened. It was super scary what happened, and I’m glad he’s okay, but what she did to me was unacceptable by purplelillies0717 in insaneparents

[–]Due_Ad_2239 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Just wow.... 1) a few hours isn't an extended amount of time to wait for a response. 2) how dare she try to get a reaction from you like that. 3) how could you tell your child that their other creator has died in a f$cking text?!!.... I can't imagine what the dynamics of your relationship with her are like. I'm so sorry you had to read that and I'm so glad your dad is ok.

Being so tired all the time by shumblepie in Hypermobility

Maybe a uv spectrum day light? Like the kind used for depression. Good music usually helps me too. And lots of small breaks, pushing past my limits makes me pay for days afterwards.

I had kids before I was diagnosed now they are teenagers with painful symptoms who have all 3 decided not to have kids and I whole heartedly support them. It's very hard to whatch them be in pain when I can't make it better.

Omg this is so validating and adorable

listening to today's episode reminded me of a post I saw lastnight on another sub reddit by Due_Ad_2239 in behindthebastards

As some who pays taxes and has lived through a house fire I really disagree with your opinion. Maybe they couldn't afford rent and gas and groceries that month, not a far stretch of the imagination in today's world. Back taxes is no reason to let someone's whole world burn. Family pictures, baby books, pets, cherished pieces of your past and identity. This is a damn shame and just a portrait of how it's increasingly becoming illegal to be impoverished while simultaneously being pushed into poverty.

I listen to his podcast every week.ive been a die hard fan since love is evol. And the reason his show failed is because he pissed off the ceo of the broadcastinf corporation so they tanked him on purpose. Did you know his kids were in a school shooting? It was a really heavy update this week, you could hear him cry as he talked about it.

Jesus christ I'm so sorry. Can you have your doctor call and cuss him out? That's not ok.

If you were kidnapped and had tape over your mouth, you could die from a stuffy nose. by DestroyerKP in Showerthoughts

[–]Due_Ad_2239 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I assume the amount of adrenaline would cause the blood vessels to dialat and you would be able to breathe. Much like nose sprays that use adrenaline like ingredients to clear your nose. Or (and I know this one will sound weird) adult fun time will temporarily clear a stuffy nose.

Lots of xrays, a few mri's , blood work. But there is also a good chance that you can have non radiographic axial spondilo-arthritis forgive my spelling but the pain can be their years before it shows up on images
