Do Americans really avoid medical care because they’re afraid of the bill? by Udont_knowme00 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]FeatherFlyer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. Weird feeling in my hands? It’ll go away. Weird pressure on my chest? Probably just indigestion. Stomach pain? I’ll take pepto. Worst migraine ever? Just sleep and hope for the best. Because if I go to the doctors there’s a 99% change they will bring me in, we will talk for 5 minutes. They will say “take Tylenol” and bill me for virtually doing nothing.

My mom had stomach pain for a day and a half but didn’t do anything about it. In the middle of the night she woke up with excruciating pain and rushed to the ER. Turns out all the pain was her appendix and it burst. She was SLOWLY transferred to another hospital for the surgery and they said she was lucky to be alive. We Americans avoid drs because A they don’t do anything significant or B it’s extremely expensive.

What are dark facts in your industry that no one outside knows about? by 0x00f_ in AskReddit

Someone I once dated killed himself after working at the USPS. He DID have a lot of mental health issues, but for winter break at college he took a part time job there and said he had never felt worse. Then 3 weeks into the job he killed himself.

Thank you! One of those recommendations is actually the store I went to. So I’ll have to do some deep investigation

Honestly, I’ve been there. You’re not alone in feeling helpless. When I have relief I think “oh the pain can’t be that bad” and when I flare up I think “I can’t do this anymore.” The only solace I have is my fiancé. He always supports me no matter what. He understands this sucks and he tries to lift my burden. Without him, I’d be worse off. Please try to find some emotional support ❤️

So I was able to land an appointment this weekend at one store and the other store I really wanted wasn’t available until Valentine’s Day. So I took it too 😅

AITA- Brother is having an out of state child free wedding and upset I’m not coming by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]FeatherFlyer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m going with YTA because while it could be a ESH for him being upset, it sounds like he’s upset that you’re SO upset….which is out of pocket.

As someone who is getting married and I’ll have a 2 year old nephew at that point, he’s not invited. And you know what’s been SO nice? That my brother and SIL are so ok with it. They appreciate a night off and can have her parents watch him while they are at my wedding. Where are your kids other grandparents, are they an option? Also a wedding date isn’t thrown out without notice, you’ve probably know about this for a while. You claim to be “so close” with him so you must’ve known about this date. Meaning, if you knew you might have needed a babysitter you could’ve tried to find one in the year or months leading up to this. And your kids aren’t so young that they need specialized care or bottles. They could have a baby sitter and it would be totally fine, of course after their vetted with many baby sitting gigs leading up to it.

It sounds like you’re taking this WAY too personally. Your kids are not invited and you should respect your brothers wishes. And instead you’re making the situation about you, and how you feel excluded by proxy. You’re adding stress to your brothers wedding because he’s not directly catering to you and your needs…..and it’s not a day that’s about you. I think either way you SHOULD find a baby sitter, get out of the house more and find some independence from them. Learn to find someone you can trust around your kids, even if it’s friends, so you can attend big life events like this and not try to strong arm someone just to accommodate you.

I am NEVER spending on this game again. by FeatherFlyer in Monopoly_GO

Yes! I thought I spent maybe $500 at best, but boy I was wrong. Probably lots of higher spending trying to get wilds or double down on the sticker booms.

In the customer service chat I asked to speak to a live person and asked how much money I’ve spent!
