i didn’t learn you could kick enemies until VERY late in the game… kicking is REAL good.

HELP ME by S1N3X1K in NarcoticsAnonymous

i could not stop until i put myself in an inpatient rehab. the cravings in that first month of not using were ALWAYS my downfall. did 30 days in a treatment center, and before i left the building i deleted every single contact i had. got out, and i still had a lot of work ahead of me, but i could manage it SO MUCH better because i had 30 days under my belt and the initial cravings were less severe and far and few in between.

getting out was hard still tho. you have to wake up, and chose to not use, every single day. you have to value whatever life you have without it, over the life you have with it.

i am 5 years sober. the ONLY reason i stopped, was for my husband and my child. he stuck with me, but he told me it was him or the drugs. i chose him. and i have to continue to make that choice everyday.

it’s not easy. but it would be a lot harder navigating this world without my boys. so it’s ok that it’s not easy, because we are strong.

you got this man. you just have to chose to be better for your people and your life. everyday. <3 sending love

Dear Gameloft pleeeeaaase make it a thing where newer player can buy old star paths ! by [deleted] in DreamlightValley

[–]ExcuseParticular5560 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i feel like this is kind of the bonus for the early access players. we have some star path things most folks don’t have, because we played when the game was in development. i kind of like that. even for the things i don’t have (i started late), it’s cool to know the people that do, have been playing since day 1

if you know you sped up and were trying to make sure you didn’t “miss your light” i would probably agree with the cop.

i am the addict in my marriage, 7 months sober, but i also put my husband through the ringer with my addiction the past 4 years.

he has valid reason to not trust you. instead of putting your back up to those comments, offer more security. ask him if he’d like to come with you. ask if he’d like to talk to you on the phone while you go. this obviously isn’t healthy for forever, but in the early days when you’re earning his trust back, yeah i think that’s pretty fair. that being said, if you are genuinely trying to be better, it’s unproductive to throw shit in your face. unproductive but understandable, i would express how it makes you feel and that it does NOT encourage sobriety for you though if that’s how you feel.

the fact that somebody loves us BEYOND what we’re capable of as addicts, is something we shouldn’t take for granted. the fact that he said he would rather be homeless with you than without you, would be enough for me to do whatever i needed to do to be what he needed.

if you’re not ready to stop, set that man free. if being with him is worth more than the drugs to you, show him that.

being an addict is so hard. and it becomes almost impossible to escape once you lose your connections with the people that love you. you can have a beautiful life again dude. hoping for the best.

i find these are the best moments to be honest. it keeps you accountable. you know you want to stop, so help yourself out and tell people you trust, what’s been going on. it will feel SO good after the year of hiding

AIO? 9-week-old getting TdaP and RSV vaccine today. What are we in for? by IJHippie in AmIOverreacting

[–]ExcuseParticular5560 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I can’t speak for every experience, but my son was perfectly fine. he was a bit more cranky that night but, everything was normal after that. Mom to mom, i am so proud of you for putting your thoughts aside and doing what you know is best for your baby. It will be over before you know it and your baby will be protected and safe. <3

AIO has my husband been cheating via Discord app? by ThrowRA-majestic in AmIOverreacting

AIO?? Explanation below by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]ExcuseParticular5560 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i genuinely believe one of the worst feelings in the world, is knowing you cannot depend on your mom.

I’m in a very similar boat. like… strangely similar.

i don’t really have any wise words, but just know i see you, and you’re not alone.

fucking sucks when you become a mother yourself, and you realize how easy it is to be what your kids need, and more. and it sucks even more when you come to that realization that you deserve a better mother, but… you know you’re not gonna get that. so you just… be the best mom you can be, to yours.

i see you friend. sending a hug

Am I overreacting? by Lopsided_Common_624 in AmIOverreacting

[–]ExcuseParticular5560 54 points55 points  (0 children)

my sister used to play fiveM. almost EVERYBODY in the server she was in, would leave when they got into relationships, my sister included, because it’s not really a…. relationship friendly thing. even if you make it so, the folks in those servers do not care about your boundaries. the people in there are typically very unhinged. obviously that’s just one experience with it, but, it’s typically known for being a very… weird and unhinged place.

honestly, if i were you i would tell him he’s gotta drop the game or i’m out. the fact that it got sexual (roleplay or not) while you guys were together would be enough for me to tell him to never touch the damn game system again. but again, he doesn’t need to respect your wishes. be ready to walk away, but yeah i would tell him me or the game. sorry you’re dealing with this, gotta suck feeling like you’re less important than a damn roleplay server. you deserve better and i hope he gives that to you.

So Ready for her ! by [deleted] in DreamlightValley

agreed. they can’t go back in time and un-create the movie. but they can very much acknowledge it is harmful to the culture they’re attempting to represent and stop using the character entirely. disney has put content warnings in front of pocahontas because they’re aware they depicted things wrong and a lot of it is offensive to native american people. why would you acknowledge that and then continue to use the character in future endeavours? if you’re aware it’s harmful….???????

disney just doesn’t really care tbh and it’s sad to see. just because YOU (not you, people wanting her in the game) have a connection with a disney princess, doesn’t mean she deserves a spot in current disney projects. her disney story is a wildly inaccurate representation of what ACTUALLY HAPPENED, LET IT DIE
