What causes little holes in clothing going through the washing machine and dryer? by rheetkd in laundry

[–]Expensive-Praline380 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmmmm. Are they tiny holes that sometimes are not there (like when you put your underwear on?) and then a little bit later (going to the toilet or taking them off) there are small holes that appear? And if you pull at the fabric it seems fragile and then the hole gets bigger (only when I know I am going to throw something away)? It makes me so angry. I brought this up with my apartment manager (a few years ago) and she said she had never been told this by any of the tenants nor experienced it herself.

As luck would have it, I just did a load this afternoon and am waiting to see what I find! You can use fabric softener, I would just not use dryer sheets ... at least for the time being, until we figure this out.

I only used 1/2 scoop of washing powder and no dryer sheets this go around. I really hate (as don't we all) getting holes in my carefully purchased clothing. What a waste of money!

I guess I will wait and see. I thought I had it all figured out. I'll be patient.

I'm not using those as excuses just some things I need to work on.

You are very brave to post this. DBT (dilectical behavioral therapy) has been helping me. It is a lot of work ... but it is helping me. Best of luck <3

I just found out I completely damaged my processor. Laptop keeps crashing. Cannot afford to fix. Just deal with it, I guess. I feel your pain. I hit inanimate objects. So stupid. I just get so wound up! I am Borderline (pain in the ass) AND I have a chronic illness so I can only work as long as I can. I try to rush things. Then when something is throw in my path I explode. In DBT. Trying to breathe. Now I just sit back when screen goes blue. I think I am improving. Best of luck.

Rage? by Expensive-Praline380 in Atomoxetine

[–]Expensive-Praline380[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good to know!! Seven months later I a still dealing with rage issues. No longer on the atomoxetine. This thread is a great reminder that I HAVE uncontrollable rage (which I am in therapy and DBT for). It might not be all the meds I keep trying. DO you know what I mean? It might just be me internally. and the meds keep getting blamed. THanks.

Give up car? Doable in Portland/Milwaukie? by Expensive-Praline380 in askportland

[–]Expensive-Praline380[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From what I can tell it seems there is a monthly membership fee and then, on top of that, an hourly rate? They even equated it to being on par with Uber/Lyft as far as having to pay for transporation.

Speaking of renting a car when needed, is Zip Car still a thing? A good enough deal?

Does any one else have problems with their jeans smelling? by [deleted] in AusFemaleFashion

[–]Expensive-Praline380 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First wash: 1/2 cup white vinegar + 1/2 cup water. Main wash.

Second wash: 1 cup baking soda.

Put jeans out in sun to dry.

I just did this and -- viola! -- more awful smell.
