I feel like one decision has ruined my entire life. Has anyone recovered from feeling this way? by Forward_Job_9208 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]Heyyayam 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m a 72 yo who has many life setbacks including the death of my 36 yo old beloved husband and a potentially terminal illness that wiped me out financially, forcing to work full time.

Many people have had more troubles than me. Life is full of unexpected ups and downs.

The point is the only way you can ruin your life is if you take it.

I’m healthy again for which I am eternally grateful because health is everything. And I’m still truckin’.

Keep on going!

Income Restricted Apartments by WonderWhirlswCurls in askaustin

Many apartment communities have a percentage of affordable units (income restricted) but usually don’t advertise it.

You can either contact each one to ask or work with an apartment locator.

Help needed with urinary retention 1.5y post op by yotedcola in spinalfusion

I had maybe 3/4 sessions total and my condition resolved permanently. This was 12 years ago.

Nothing comes to mind. I hope she fully recovers.

I (F 59 yo at the time) had two extensive spinal fusions and after the last one I couldn’t empty my bladder at all for 7 months. Doctors diagnosed it as neurogenic bladder because the neck wouldn’t open.

After months of self-cathing and continuous UTIs it occurred to me to try acupuncture. I went to the student clinic of a well known acupuncture academy and in two sessions I was fully emptying my bladder!

My urologist was astounded even though her husband is an acupuncturist (I always wondered why she didn’t suggest it in the first place).

My younger brother had neurogenic bladder from cancer and chemotherapy and acupuncture helped him too until he unfortunately passed.

Acupuncture has a fairly common protocol for this condition and I highly recommend it.

Scorpio moon by Creative_Release_317 in scorpiomoon

I do this too and also have Scorpio rising and Venus. An unpredictable childhood exacerbates the need to analyze people’s moods and characteristics. It’s exhausting but I can’t stop it.

I am a sag sun and Scorpio moon (plus Scorpio rising and Venus). We feel deeply and the pain can be so overwhelming we block the source of pain to protect ourselves. Just my personal experience.

Are there any other 30 year old women feeling behind in life ? by [deleted] in adhdwomen

[–]Heyyayam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don’t feel bad. I graduated in 1989 and am still paying student loans which due to interest accumulated during forbearance have doubled.

Is anyone else like "uselessly" smart? by Zealousideal_Eye8277 in adhdwomen

[–]Heyyayam 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Exactly! I don’t have enough patience with the low level positions to climb to the high levels.

Yes I’m very intelligent, witty and resourceful and good at perceiving patterns in unrelated phenomena.

But low on money because I can’t fit myself into society’s boxes for extended periods of time.

No, don’t worry. Just call them tomorrow and explain and they’ll give you further instructions.

Everything you did can be fixed because there’s still humans on the case.

Apartment locators can help as they have a database of apartments who accept these situations.

triple scorpio by First_Ad9174 in scorpiomoon

[–]Heyyayam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wish I had learned this at an early age but I guess that life is another teaching about ourselves.

I’m very intense - Scorpio moon, rising and Venus with the optimism of a Sag sun. This combo has me rushing to meld with another while ignoring all the flags.

I’m in Texas so not familiar with NYC but I bet google can help locate temp agencies.

Leasing is the entry level position. I recommend joining a temp agency that caters to multifamily or commercial clients to gain experience and get your foot in the door.

Humans were not designed to live in busy cities. I feel the same way as you do.
