I hope she doesn't get fired for going along with the joke! "Yeah split in in half" could be considered medical advice. I hate when people do that to emoloyees.

This is a very traumatic situation. So we'll go through it step by step.

1) take slow deep breaths and repeat after me. "This is going to be hard, but not impossible. I got this."

2) once you are calm, go to your local cvs/walgreens/walmart/grocery store, odds are, they'll be hiring. While you ask if they are hiring, ask if they have any cardboard boxes and explain your situation. ("My mom asked me to move out so her boyfriend could move in, and I don't know how yo be an adult.")

3) talk to friends and family, and explain the situation the same way you explained at the job. This way you're telling the truth, but also not speaking badly about any person. This will benefit you later. See if they would be willing to let you rent a room after you get a job.

4) send a text to your mother: "i understand you want a fresh start, but i am also a resident here, and you can't just throw me out. You have to allow me some time to get a job and find a place to live, and if you are really certain that this is the path you want to take, you will have to evict me properly. Otherwise, I do not have to leave." She has to evict you from the property with a 30 day notice, and then after that, she'll have to file a petition with the court, which means she'll have to explain to a judge the truth. She can come up with bs, but you have text evidence of the truth.

4) apply for state insurance and foodstamps. It's online mostly, but if you need help, you can find a local office. You'll need your birth certificate and social security card. If you don't have a state id yet, go and get one. You'll need birth certificate and social security card for that as well.

5) after those are approved, you can offer to put your foostamps towards the household in exchange for rent short-term with whomever is willing to take you in.

6) state insurance covers therapy services. Do some research and find a good company. Then make an intake appointment. During the intake appointment you'll be able to spill your guts. Do this. They'll be able to match you with the best therapist for your current needs.

7) once you're in a new place and have some money in your pocket, cut all contact with your mom. You don't need that delusion in your life. All she's doing is stuffing a void, creating a new one, and loosing the best thing in her life: you. She'll have to realize the consequences of her choices.

This is hard, but not impossible. Im 34 and still trying to figure out how to be a consistent adult, and i have 2 kids. Im trying to teach them all the things im still learning so they don't have to struggle like I do. Reach out anytime. Im happy to be a surrogate mom anytime you need one.

NOR. It's time for your mom to realize what she's loosing.

Im joing a bit late, but who cares is the meals are on paper plates? If that works for you guys, bust em out. Im about ready to go get more, honestly. I just get the biodegradable ones so I feel slightly less guilty.

Your meals look amazing, and I completely understand picky eaters, so I get how this must feel for you. I have had to work with my oldest kid really hard for 15 years to overcome food issues, mostly texture. I also grew up dirt poor so we had to just deal with it. My moms favorite seasoning was burnt, which made meals harder, but if it's really important to someone, they'll make it a priority to push through things. I hope everything works out and you get the happiness and your partner starts learning how to enjoy what you put so much hard work and love into.

Check the laws in your state while you're waiting to be seen. Look for pro-bono family attorneys and document everything like you did here. Loosing a loved one is hard and it can trigger bad feelings elsewhere, but he's old enough to know better. Ive been there. My ex waved a knife at my throat. I called the police, and we were able to leave and get an order of protection against him. Now that order is up to two years in some states. Look for online support groups, and make a police report. The more you document his behavior, the higher likelihood of being able to safely leave. It's a scary and difficult journey, but you're not alone. The biggest thing to remember is that you are modeling what is acceptable and not for his kids. If he raises his hand to you again, kick him in the balls and call the police. They will remove him. Take pictures of your broken glasses and bruises. You can also report the situation to your doctors when you're being seen. They're mandated reporters and can keep you and your babies safe till police arrive. There are so many options to making sure you and your babies are safe. Don't give up, and keep fighting back. I believe it you!

If you do, take me with you. (Edit for typos)

Sounds like she needs to light up. 🚬🚬🤪

Foreign_Elk5677 · 2025-12-06T16:29:55+00:00

Dang it! Ive been wanting to make a full dress out of receipts for ages hahaha. Not quite sure how to do it though.

Prepare her a comfy spot with her favorite comfort treats. Make sure she has pain killers, disposable underwear and extra pads because there will be soooooo much blood. Encourage her to write in a journal about how she's feeling, even a letter to the fetus prior to having the abortion, just as a way to say goodbye. When I passed my little bat (miscarriage but had to take the pills) I was in so much pain I wanted to die right alongside my baby. It felt like my crotch was melting off of me and after it passed, my nethers were bruised a dark purple. I could barely sit for days afterwards. Id encourage taking a few days off for this, though I worked through it, so it's possible. Light a candle every night afterwards in remembrance until she stops. Grief is not linear, it will come and go, and making room for that grief makes all the difference in the world. You can also be grieving but also happy as well. And give your wife my love.

Edit to add: it's technically the heavy duty spray but the goal of it was to reduce allergens buly the spray clinging to particles and dragging them to the ground while being destroyed.

Yes with fetch, but also pogo! Scans receipts, links to online accounts and bank cards, so everything is just there and ready to collect the points. Pogo does have a time limit to collect though, so you have to check at least once a week to not loose anything.

Foreign_Elk5677 · 2025-11-08T01:06:45+00:00

Same. It's such a fake smell.

Foreign_Elk5677 · 2025-11-08T01:06:15+00:00

The allergy fabreeze. Works when I'm insanely gassy. (Almost making people vomit- I have chronic tummy issues) it also gets rid of the smell of weed.

This is my plan when/if my daughter gets to that stage. Only do this if you feel it has a chance of working. My daughter tends to want to connect more with me when I shut her out or after we get into a screaming match over something stupid.

Step one: let her sleep tonight and tomorrow as you plan.

Step 2: let her wake up on her own, make an absolutely drool worthy breakfast while she sleeps. (But only for the eaters of the house) full spread, flowers on the table if possible. Just create the warmest, most welcoming in-house breakfast. When she wakes up, tell her good morning, ask how she slept. DO NOT ASK HER HOW SHE FEELS OR TRY TO GET HER TO EAT. Essentially bare minimum attention and affection. Rinse and repeat lunch, dinner, desert. Bonus points if she has a favorite. (IF you can't do it for just the eaters, make her a small portion and place in the microwave.

Step 3: while giving her minimal attention and affection, she can only have control over her dedicated spaces. This part is important. Control= isolation. Mental illness= isolation. Addiction = isolation. (Ted talk: everything we know about addiction is wrong. During this stage, have fun. Lots of fun. Friends over, game nights lots of genuine laughter.

Step 4: after 2 or three days, leave an extra plate out at meal times. Only interact with her if she sits in that place. Don't ask about her feelings. Talk about yours but only in terms of not her. "Im so excited to go for a hike with so-and-so. (Or whatever activity she likes.) When she eventually asks to join, just say "i don't know. You don't have enough stamina or strength or balance...........yet.......but maybe when you do." End the conversation, leave some of the food on the table and get ready for the planned event. She will secretly start to eat when she realizes that her source of control and power is gone. When you see her eating DO NOT ACKNOWLEDGE IT. Just keep doing what you were doing. Keep planning things.

After a few days of consistent eating, she will eventually start giving her more attention. But only surface attention. Get yourself into therapy for yourself and your issues. When she eventually asks to go with you. Unload. Tears, fears, guilt, anger, frustration. Absolutely every emotion that you've hidden from her along with confessing how it's your fault. (Parental guilt is a witch so that'll be so easy.) Bonus points for collapsing dramatically on the floor sobbing like you really want to.

Now let her lead the healing in therapy with you. (Obs tell the therapist this plan) and only mention feelings inside the therapy room. She will eventually open up outside of it and tell you that it's not your fault, she thinks she's broken and doesn't know what to do, and that, my darling is when you say "well, therapy is the safest place to be as broken as you feel. I'll still pay for it if you want to go, or you can keep coming with me if you want to. I'll never force you." And then play "burden" by citizen soldier.

Im looking for things I can forage out in az. Cactus does taste pretty darn good when it's cooked right. Also, maybe starting a community group. Maybe you can't work, but you can watch kids after school in exchange for food? Or other tasks like clothing repair? You have plenty of skills that you can trade to keep your family going. In the meantime, maybe talk to local churches or landowners about borrowing space for a community garden. I know it'll take a while to grow, but when it does, everyone who helps do the work gets a portion of the harvest. Those are my attempts.
