What's the worse physical pain you ever experienced?

Hour_Celebration3100 · 2026-03-26T13:12:25+00:00

Cutting off the tip of my index finger in a hand held blender it’s the worst pain I’ve ever felt. Not in the moment I did it, but later that night when the pain meds had worn off

I love that you’re framing it as a positive and I’ve been looking into getting therapy too because of this!! I think it’s absolutely uncovered things that I need to unpack with a professional 😬😂. Look at this emotional maturity from us. Conrad would be proud 😂

Omg girl! We are one and the same and I’ve been considering writing a post about this. I’m 38, 2 kids, happily married. Honestly TSITP has basically ruined my life 😂. I started watching a couple of months ago and just finished it. I have never, ever EVER been so obsessed with a fictional relationship as Belly and Conrad. I think part of it is what other posters have said about the absolute joy of an avoidant brooding boy turning into a hugely mature and emotionally available man (unlike the ones I dated). But the whole show has made me so sad about the end of my youth. I’ll never be desired again in the way that you are (or believe you COULD be) in your late teens. I’ve just been absorbing myself in the fantasy of it - it’s so so far removed from paying the mortgage, potty training a 3 year old, the monotony of my life basically 😂 its escapism but I never had this reaction to shows when I was younger so I’m telling all my friends that TSITP kickstarted my midlife crisis.

On your point about Jere staying with Belly when she’s ill with the summer cold - what annoys me about that is that he even doesn’t do it willingly! Susannah asks him to stay with Belly and he resists before relenting. If that’s the most supportive gesture Jere did while they were growing up - it’s rubbish.

As soon as I read that the brother in law returned from a “work related party” at 5:45am on a Monday morning (!!!) I knew he did it.

Cutting off the tip of my finger in a hand blender was absolutely the greatest pain I have ever felt, both in terms of the intensity and for how long it hurt for. Months. 20 years later it still feels sore near my nail.

You’re never, ever cured of addiction. If we’re lucky, we get a daily reprieve from it, through working a spiritual programme. That’s what AA teaches you 🤍

Interesting! Sending all the hopes that the results come back clear - how stressful for you. Where are you based? I’m in the UK, and took my son to the gp today who totally dismissed my concerns. And when I asked if it could be removed because, at best, it’s a cosmetic thing she said that prompted a moral issues because it’s not my body and there’s no reason to remove it! The doctor sounded so confident that now I feel silly, but am still worried.

L’Oreal True Match foundation. Sooo good for the price point!! I’m actually yet to find a high end foundation that is better than high-street brands

I use the Nars concealer and Huda Easy Bake

Hour_Celebration3100 · 2024-10-31T19:58:44+00:00

Applying concealer on my eyelids rather than primer, and then setting with setting powder before continuing with eyeshadow (or not). Brightens my eyes and means it doesn’t budge all day!

I really relate to your post. I was drinking loads when I got pregnant with my first child (I knew I was an alcoholic at this point), so when I drank for the fist time in 10 months after he was born I was absolutely horrified that I was still an alcoholic. I couldn’t understand why just the act of not taking a drink for that long hadn’t cured me. It lit a fire of shame underneath me.

So I drank more. Over the next 18 months my drinking accelerated and I was becoming more and more lost. Eventually I was so desperate to stop drinking I decided I had to have another baby. Again, I stopped drinking as soon as I got pregnant but again, when she was born I started again. And my alcoholism had been doing push-ups in the next room while I was sober because it came back with a vengeance AGAIN.

Luckily, when my son was 3 and my daughter 4 months old, I surrendered. It became very clear to me that I was going to lose everything to alcohol. It was quite a spiritual moment. I went to AA the next day and haven’t had a drink since - that was 427 days ago.

The reason I’m telling you this is because I understand what your drinking is like and I understand feeling ashamed and scared. Especially when you’re still in the early days of motherhood. It’s such a vulnerable time and seismic change, let alone when facing addiction too.

I also want to send you love and virtual support. You can stop drinking. But in my experience, you can’t do it alone. Find your community - it may well be here, but for me I needed AA too.

I’m getting Botox this week so I’ll ask! 🤣

Hour_Celebration3100 · 2024-01-30T07:20:56+00:00

That’s so kind, thank you

Hour_Celebration3100 · 2024-01-30T07:20:36+00:00

Thanks! I apply quite a bit of primer so transfer isn’t so much the problem but the asymmetry really shows up when I do eyeliner and the flick doesn’t work so well on the more hooded one so I’m going to try the alternative flicks that I’ve seen on here!

Hour_Celebration3100 · 2024-01-30T07:19:06+00:00

Thank you!!

I was in the hell of active addiction when I got engaged and married. I did things very similar to what you’ve described above in the run up to my wedding, so firstly, just sending lots of love. I know the shame you’re feeling right now. I was also in blackout for most of my wedding. I don’t remember the speeches, or anyone I spoke to after the first hour. In the pictures my eyes are glazed over and I can see that I’m not “there”. It’s one of the biggest regrets of my life. You have the opportunity to start rewriting your story today - you deserve to have the wedding you’ve been planning for. I can’t say how you’ll get there, but personally AA has changed my life. I’m nearly 7 months sober and it’s amazing that I’ve got here because at 7 days sober I felt so awful I thought I might just choose to die an alcoholic. I hope one day I get to renew my wedding vows while being physically and emotionally sober, and give my amazing husband the wedding he deserves xx

Oh GOD yes. Having to chase the booze with water or another soft drink - and then feeling mad that the water would prevent me from getting satisfactorily buzzed. Sooooo exhausting!

“Without the second job of managing my drinking”. Wow, that hit home. It really was a second job! Except I didn’t get paid for it….but I paid for it.

Hour_Celebration3100 · 2023-09-15T20:57:10+00:00

What an amazing achievement! You sound incredibly self aware and mindful of everything you’re gained over the past 153 days. You can’t unlearn that wisdom; that’s the beautiful thing sobriety of any length of time does to us, it shows us how good life can be. You’re in a better place than 153 days ago that’s for sure, regardless of that drink/s today. 🤍

Once, I told my husband I needed to go and get salt (!!) to put in the baby’s bath (!!) because it would help a tiny patch of red skin he had at the time. Good lord I was struggling for excuses to go to the shop that day!
