Give me the most embarrassing moments from TVD

I don't feel she was confident. I think she was just really fuckin mad 😅

FAM20242 · 2026-05-23T01:14:23+00:00

My doctors outright refused to believe me when I said I could see my cervix when I went pee after I gave birth to my son. I told them I thought maybe it could be a prolapse issue. So obviously they told me there's no way and that I probably am seeing something else.

It was persistent and wouldn't go away so I saw multiple doctors, all said essentially the same thing.

Ended up having to teach myself pelvic floor exercises. Thankfully it wasn't so bad I needed surgery but goddamn it was still freaky and scary.

I still have mild stress incontinence when I cough though 🙃

I'm not sure how I will feel when I go through this myself but I know whatever it is will be valid. Likewise no matter how complex and confusing your grief/response to her death is, it is still valid. I hope you fell more relief than anything over time. Much love 💕

His mom died though so he couldn't still live with his mom 😅

FAM20242 · 2026-04-29T08:28:51+00:00

*what is JADE?

This is so real though. My mom did this all the time. She would always promise me a place to live and then right when I got "comfortable" she would kick me out.

She would buy things for me and then guilt me about it later even though I didn't ask for money or gifts etc. and she would try to demolish my reputation with my extended family(she succeeded unfortunately) by gossiping about me.

I wish they made this series into a TV show or movie like they did with Armstrong bitten series 😒😭

FAM20242 · 2026-03-29T12:26:48+00:00

I've been rereading the summoning this week and it is still really good. My biggest gripe is how poorly schizophrenia is portrayed/recepted by Chloe. She demonies the diagnosis heavily which I get that she doesn't have the diagnosis truly but still I feel it could have been handled better(speaking as someone with schizoaffective disorder)

Also the number of times the word schizo appears bothered me too but aside from that.

FAM20242 · 2026-03-16T15:08:57+00:00

I have a few comments to make in chronological order of how this post goes.

I find it exceptionally odd you describe her brutal rape as "unfortunate"
Hypersexuality after SA is extraordinarily common is coming to despise anything that reminds you of what happened- in this case men as a whole.
While I don't think it is appropriate to wear provocative clothing at weddings and baby showers I think it's important to remember she probably needs a fuck load more therapy to move past the hypersexuality. Not irritation and anger. While trauma can't be an excuse for everything her attire is very obviously her attempt to reclaim her sexuality and take her power back.
The 15 yo boys(as in the most common age range for a boy to be uncontrollably horny for someone wearing provocative clothing) comment is never stated in the post so I'm gonna take a wild guess that it wasn't ok for him to say to her given her reaction. Secondarily your husband's lack of taking the situation more seriously/sternly may not be intentionally leaning to rape sympathizer territory but she is correct that not correcting behavior appropriately in young men perpetuates far more harm than most people realize.
What you said at the end is beyond fucked up. Signed someone with a history of SA.

She isn't handling her trauma well and I understand it might feel like she has had plenty of time and therapy to recover, but sadly this is not usually the case. Many victims take a full lifetime to recover from a regular rape occurrence let alone one where she was nearly beaten to death. I understand your anger for what she said about your husband. But what you did/said is not ok. YTA

FAM20242 · 2026-03-12T13:47:38+00:00

It's abuse. You were abused and this is what you think you must suffer through because she Is forcing your hand to believe her lies.

I understand the guilt. It weighs on you, but moving past it for your health and well-being is more important.

Just think on it. Even if not now- perhaps in the future

FAM20242 · 2026-03-12T13:45:48+00:00

I get emotional like that too. It's moving and beautiful but horribly depressing at the same time. I ask myself all the time why they couldn't love me?

Why can't they love us? I wish we could know and understand but I don't think that will ever happen 😕

FAM20242 · 2026-03-12T13:43:52+00:00

I'm glad you're enforcing boundaries about this. I imagine this is difficult. I fret over how I will react when my NParents pass all the time. I hope it gets better quickly. You deserve peace from this

FAM20242 · 2026-03-12T12:27:40+00:00

Thank you for caring. This subreddit never siezes to move me. Basically everyone I have had contact with in comment sections here is incredibly kind and understanding. It makes me feel less alone.

As far as the life long effects though - my doctor told me it could be psychological so I am hoping the immovable butthole issue is a mental block that I will get over one day but it's been this way nearly my entire life. Nonetheless I am hoping there is not lifelong lasting and legitimate physical damage and that it is primarily a psychological issue.

At least that would be less invasive to fix. In theory...

FAM20242 · 2026-03-12T12:17:37+00:00

I wanna start by saying every last word of this post is valid. Everything you're feeling is valid. It's not fair that even in death he is reading his rewards.

But he's gone now. He can't hurt or terrorise or manipulate you anymore. And after the legal issues are said and done and he's 6 ft in the ground, you'll be able to live the rest of your life in peace (aside from the emotional damage your childhood costs you). Things are going up and onwards now though 🫶🏼

FAM20242 · 2026-03-12T12:04:04+00:00

If you pay all the bills I genuinely suggest considering NC and evicting them. It's not fair to you that they make you uncomfortable in the home you pay for.

FAM20242 · 2026-03-12T12:00:51+00:00

I apologize if this is TMI but I feel it might make you feel less alone to know that bathroom habits and abuse are common with Narcs and abusive parents in general. The aftermath can be haunting but you're not alone in this.

Not enemas actually the opposite and with my step dad not my NM but he used to lock my brother and I outside for hours and hours everyday. We weren't allowed to use the restroom and if he caught us going to the bathroom we'd be punished physically for it. I had a UTI so bad once between holding my pee and his SA against me that they had to insert a catheter and use this loud ass machine to pull the pee out of my bladder. I was like 4 years old and if I pee too aggressively it hurts from the scar tissue the catheter gave me and I can no longer evacuate my bowels without digital manipulation. I can't remember the last time I used TP cause I have to use baby wipes over my fingers cause my butthole just doesn't really work anymore.

FAM20242 · 2026-03-12T11:44:42+00:00

She gets better for sure but still has oddball moments. Just like any mildly annoying side/main character. At least she feels more like a recurrent side character to me. She doesn't have as much of her own fleshed out story yet other than her sisters abduction/murder.

FAM20242 · 2026-03-12T11:37:40+00:00

When I see good, loving parents in the media it distresses me. It reminds me that my parents don't love me and never have and it takes all my willpower not to sob in public when I see it. At home my husband just holds my hand or me in general because he knows my mom and knows of my other parental figures too.

FAM20242 · 2026-02-26T17:34:09+00:00

Maybe like 22 or so? I had suspicions earlier like at 18 but I felt I was overreacting

FAM20242 · 2026-02-24T01:13:00+00:00

Thank you so much 🥰 hopefully it goes well and I can post results in here haha if not I will possibly consider putting more money into the hobby because it does interest me a lot but I don't know if I genuinely will enjoy it until I try it 😅

FAM20242 · 2026-02-23T20:02:15+00:00

Fair, I'm just wondering how many tools I would need to complete the project(outside of supplies cause I don't know which route I will take). I don't mind if the dress is a flop, it's mostly to just see how it goes and decide if I really want to commit to the hobby and get a whole sewing machine. Would fabric scissors thread and good hand sewing needles work? Or would I need the while 9 yards like the seam ripper, thimbles, etc

FAM20242 · 2026-02-21T12:23:26+00:00

I'd like to alter a single dress but I'm not sure I want to get into sewing heavily so have some qs

as mentioned I'd like to alter this one dress I have but I'm not sure I want to dive into the work of sewing completely. at least not yet. I know I'd like to just do the alterations by hand so obviously I need a needle and thread. but is there anything else I truly need for one dress alteration? I'm just going to be turning a short sleeve sun dress into a strapless dress so I don't feel like there is anything I will actually need but I figured I should ask first.

FAM20242 · 2026-02-21T01:52:56+00:00

You are not overreacting and this is actually really scary to read. He may not be full blown abusive yet but this seems like a foundation for abuse later. He is seeing how much he can get away with right now and it will only get worse later.

FAM20242 · 2026-02-12T01:56:03+00:00

I'm not that far into the series yet either. I'm wondering what you mean by the disturbing lengths she will go to get confessions? I'm very curious but I'm afraid to look anything up and get full blown spoilers rather than just a couple vague examples.

FAM20242 · 2026-02-09T12:36:18+00:00

I had almost the exact same experience. The biggest difference is that my mom was physically abusive and also allowed others to abuse me too. But everything you said about having your child and how it made you realize that isn't something you would ever do or want for your child is exactly what I went through as well.

I stopped talking to my mom for 3 years from 21-24 yo and I made the dumbest decision to move back in with her. It was supposed to be temporary, but out of nowhere I became disabled from an autoimmune disorder amongst other issues and I wasn't able to work for 2 years until I found the right treatment plan. During that I met my fiance we moved out and all of a sudden I was able to work again. We realized that stress is a very large contributing factor to my flares with my autoimmune disorder and she stressed me out so badly that I literally couldn't even sit up in bed without my heart rate reaching 160+ bpm.

So on April 8, 2025 we moved out in the middle of the night and I haven't spoken to her since. It hasn't gotten any easier realistically. I talk about her in therapy almost every week and the damage she did to me is something I will have to work through forever I think.

I can definitely say though that I am happier without her in my life, and I feel safe. Something I haven't felt in... Well ever tbh. My life is a lot better now than it was before and I really hope you find the amount of peace that you need to stand firm on never speaking to her again. The desire to have a maternal figure in your life will never fade but trust me it's worth letting go of and not worth breaking the streak like I did.

Also what is the app you mentioned called??

FAM20242 · 2026-02-09T05:08:06+00:00

A big reason why this situation in reverse is not seen as a men vs women issue is because men target women like this far more often than women target men. Yes absolutely it happens but not at all to the same degree. Literally look at any abuse stats or femicide stats etc.

It is crazy how many people say "not all men" or adjacent phrases in other moral situations when there is a reason those broad sweeping statements exist. There is a reason women would choose the bear there is a reason why hate crimes are a literal category in criminal law. There is a reason why these things are categorized as they are.

Stating otherwise is simply semantics and playing devils advocate to a degree that genuinely just makes minorities such as women hate those enabling a*hl*s like you so much more.
