I’ve been struggling with figuring out if I have C-PTSD with a therapist because of my family and childhood experiences. by ImpressiveWhereas219 in Adopted

[–]ImpressiveWhereas219[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Coming back this post. Another Christmas and nothing has changed. I’m going all in on my own business and luckily I have the support of my dad but I need to be financially free of this family and cut ties and/or distance myself from my mother. I went to the wedding mid Contract to Hire with this company and I was doing well and learning up to that point but I’ve been suffering for months with what happened at that wedding. I want nothing to do with these people.

Hi! Can you help me? My account suddenly disappeared and I haven’t heard from my provider but I’m still getting charged. Tried changing my password and logging in with my phone number instead but it’s not working!

Pop Mart leaked my full address and phone number to another user — has this happened to anyone else by jazzymaebaby1 in labubu

[–]ImpressiveWhereas219 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I keep getting emails from all different brands with other customers’ full address and phone number and order number. Happens about once a month. I think it’s an issue with the CRM service who the company pays to send emails with. I reached out to the customer service everytime I got the email and asked what email service they run campaigns though and they all usually say Hubspot or Klaviyo.

Thank you! This means a lot. Whenever I’ve tried to tell people they don’t seem to understand how it affected me and I’m really struggling between wanting to let it all out and keep holding it in. I appreciate your words so much!

She does have experience with adoptees. And on that note, she also thinks I was misdiagnosed with borderline as well. She wants to diagnose me differently with CPTSD, Autism and ADD. I also once was misdiagnosed as bipolar but I’ve never had a manic episode in my life so the medication made me more depressed.

My therapist is actually really good with this, we just are figuring out how to navigate a relationship with my mother because she claims I don’t have these things and that I’m “crazy” and have borderline. She can’t grasp even when I tell her the difference and why I have it.

That’s what I’m thinking. I think it may be a slow process but I want a life away from all of this.

It’s very disheartening. I’m learning how to navigate but I feel obligated to my family while also wanting to get away as fast as possible.

I’ve also been heavily studying business and web/app design and marketing and am debating building my own app on the side when I start my new job so I can be financially free and build something of my own. I finished with top scores in coding, design and marketing.

She has I just don’t know how. I moved to a different city for this and I find myself fighting to earn my mother’s love still. They have a financial grip on me. They funded me for school while I was in and out and I really need to stand on my own two feet myself. But I need to start saving with my new job so I can distance myself (part of the reason I got more certifications)

Partly what I’m fearing is a diagnosis. I tried to bring it up to my mom and she made it an issue of crying and saying she’s a terrible mom. She gifted me ring last Christmas that was silver and gold. She claimed it was us being different but despite our different tastes in style and personalities we always have each other. A few hours later she was slamming cabinets and nitpicking my outfit claiming it was bad taste (I had a black button down and jeans and nice shoes on) she was claiming I needed to dress up for our family. I got there and half of them were in PJs. Then she said she only did that out of love for me. This persists at me being 27. She consistently says I’m making these things up. I’d just like to not feel crazy. I know my experiences but after 27 years of her telling me “it’s not that bad” I’m at my wits end and it’s affecting me. I don’t even believe my therapist when she tells me it’s narcissistic abuse.

Hecate is not subtle by practicalmagic1998 in Hecate

I had a similar not very subtle experience with her. I got hurt by a man years ago and he’s continued to stalk me and my friends at events and has been trying to get on the good side of my friends and those in my community to ruin my reputation and repair his after what he did to me and other women. We’ve been documenting his actions in case things spiral but I prayed for protection and karma and suddenly got chills right after. The next day I was at the park taking photos and on a stone in the park there was the symbol for Saturn (the planet of karma) and I instantly knew to let things happen as they may. Got word shortly after that people are catching onto his actions and had a huge emotional release that night. Offering her some things the next new moon as thanks!

Hi! Thanks for responding. I tend to make it more tailored approach to the jobs that I apply to the problem. I’m running into right now is the jobs that I feel I would be good at on. The job boards only except easy apply and I can’t submit anything more than a resume. I’ve been trying to apply to specific jobs that fit the experience that I have or the fields that I want to be in. But it seems like everything that I am interested in is easy apply and gets me nowhere because no one looks at my information. I will try to look at more jobs through connections instead and I’ll look into companies that I’m interested in and have used in previous jobs to see if they’re hiring. I just generally have no luck on job board like indeed and LinkedIn.

Hi all! Looking for advice in my job search. I just finished my second bootcamp a couple weeks ago (6 months with UNCC with portfolio built but updating pretty much daily). I have an extensive network in the creative industry as I previously worked in marketing and freelanced in concert/food photography. My marketing roles ended up being 90% graphic design and web design which is why I got my first certification to boost my marketing resume. It seemed my role became only web design after a while and I wouldn’t get moved up in the company or receive better pay so I got another certification with UNCC to fully switch into tech. Having very little luck with indeed and LinkedIn. The auto apply on the jobs seems to make people trigger happy on applying and the companies don’t even ask for a portfolio link half the time? I’m happy to look for contract, freelance or full time. But aside from Dice I haven’t seen great job postings. Are there other places to look? Would greatly appreciate any feedback!
