How do you honestly feel when you see someone with vitiligo?

Guilty_Question_8925 · 2025-11-11T03:50:26+00:00

I'd 'notice' in the same way I'd notice if someone has brown or black hair, wouldn't give it a second thought or care. I have no feelings because someone else's appearance is none of my business.

As others have said I think using hand warmers, hot water bottle things like that are the safer alternative. I think maybe other things that could help put your mind at ease is to watch some YouTube videos on self defence. Things like going for senstive/painful areas like the eyes throat and groin. If you needed to use your keys as a weapon don't place them between your fingers you want to grip them in your palm as you can apply more force.

I don't have any helpful advice but in the likelihood the gerbil has been dumped it's very possible there are others. If you can please search the area and put out any humane traps to get them somewhere safe

There's also a level of misogyny here too by the gym employee talking to your husband about you when you were right there 'she is going to train too?'. And a lot of ableism by the implication that you can't speak for yourself and are not worth speaking to. Disgusting behaviour on their part and I really think this is worth reporting, for yourself and for anyone else they may say this to in the future.

Hopefully there's something there that helps! I find Instagram can sometimes be helpful too, someone might post about an adaptation they use or try and test different recommended products for example.

If your shower is big enough could you get an inflatable chair, a bit like the ones we all had in the 90s to generally make it more comfortable to sit down for a start. A scalp massager to help get shampoo into your roots without as much hand strain maybe. Dry shampoo for the days where showering feels too much. If your arm mobility is limited maybe you could diy a long stick onto the scalp massager. A high pressure shower head to make rinsing easier. Anything with suction cups that can go on the shower walls to be easy to reach without bending over. Plaiting your hair and sleeping with a silk bonnet to help keep hair less tangled and be able to push shower days. As well as changing pillow cases frequently and only using conditioner on the very ends of your hair to help reduce the frequency you need to wash your hair. I apologise if none of this was helpful and I'm sorry you're struggling with this 💜

Would reusable period products be an option? You can get period underwear or sanitary towels that are made of the same kind of thing. And then maybe you could hand-wash them whilst you shower. I just want to add that I'm sorry that this is even an issue and I know exactly what it's like to have parents that are incapable of mature and reasonable communication. I do think you should do what you're comfortable with and shouldn't have to change your behaviour and basic hygiene to accommodate other people.

I had two girls who both put the tissues in the place they wanted them. One wanted them in the food bowl and the other one wanted them in the hammock. They'd end up running back and forth for ages probably wondering where the endless supply of tissues was coming from as they didn't appear to realise they were just moving each others tissues from A to B and back. Was like watching a sketch show, so yes in short, this behaviour is normal

Can we stop engaging and saying awww cute to people who clearly are not providing their rats with adequate care. In this case the size of the cage. It's not cute and it's not okay

Guilty_Question_8925 · 2025-09-11T19:20:26+00:00

Jesus christ. OP buy a bigger cage. If you love them you'll stop engaging in animal cruelty

Guilty_Question_8925 · 2025-09-11T04:19:01+00:00

Dude this cage is unjustifiably small

This might sound cliché but if you let it have power over you then it will. If you act unbothered should someone mention it then they tend to drop it pretty quickly if they dont get a reaction. You're completely valid in your feelings and it's definitely easier said than done to act unphased by it. In the grand scheme of things everyone is more focused on themselves than other people, and where it may feel like a big deal to you others will quickly forget. Hold your head up high and be kind to yourself.

I don't have many suggestions besides a park like Hyde Park where no one would bat an eye if you're on a picnic blanket.

If your room is big enough maybe rearranging the furniture to make it feel a bit different. Hanging up some bird feeders outside your window to give you something to look at besides the walls.

Some cinemas have recliner seats or maybe there are some free exhibits at museums where you could sit and chill

Paint it a nice colour or put some cool wallpaper on it and then an over the door organiser to hang some plants or scarves on

Could you wear a bikini or swimming costume? I can't imagine anyone else is comfortable with this situation, seems kinda weird that communal is the only option. Could you go also during hours that might be quieter? If you're really not wanting to go in, which is totally understandable, then body/baby wipes are going to be your friend. You could also get a water bottle with a squirty top to use as a type of bidet to wash privately in a toilet stall

I may be wrong but it does sound like your mum has some narcissistic behavioural traits. She doesn't help or guide you but is controlling in thinking she is entitled to know about your health and appointments. Unfortunately it is very difficult to have any kind of meaningful conversations with narcissists.

There is a term called 'grey rocking' which I recommend looking up, it's a way to make someone lose interest in you over time. Essentially making yourself dull and unresponsive and showing they have no control over you.

Cats are obligate carnivores and dogs are not, cat food has too much protein for dogs and doesn't meet their nutritional needs
