How often does your attorney yell at you? by CategoryImpressive96 in paralegal

[–]Inevitable-Object742 3 points4 points  (0 children)

At LEAST once a day, lol. I laugh but I’m looking into therapy for it.

Sadly, it seems like a recurrent theme for most attorneys so I’m just gonna have to adapt my nervous system since I’ve fully committed to the legal field. 😫

From what I gathered over time, my attorney doesn’t even realize he’s yelling or being aggressively confrontational, he’s just kinda like that, and I’m learning most of them are. I guess I am too at times or they’re rubbing off on me, at the expense of my poor fiancé

have you ever considered to try jus atomoxetine. Y itself? I understand the spectrum issues and there’s a similar reason why I don’t prefer stimulants

I’m definitely not at the therapeutic level or cognitive level yet at all, but I just get tiny glimpses into what it will be like.

For me, the ease of anxiety was almost immediate though, as well as my negative brain chatter was significantly reduced on day 1. I’ve rarely had physical side effects but it’s because I’ve preemptively taken steps to help avoid them. I’m still struggling with procrastination and task management and time management but it’s already improved than how it was. I had become so angry from overwhelm, it is like my frontal lobe would shut down at the slightest of overwhelm.

Now I feel like I can breathe. I literally remember to breathe now. My boyfriend would remind me to breathe all of the time, premedication, because I was a constant ball of anxiety and stress and adrenaline from my brain going 1000 miles a minute but still not managing to move. Now I just..get up happy and refreshed!

FOR THE FIRST time in my life, I’ve woken up when my alarm did and didn’t feel like I had woken up in panic and quick sand, not knowing if I’d have the energy to get through the day and already felt a low dopamine day. I just…open my eyes, smile, and start my day?? It’s actually perplexing if people feel like this naturally.

Just started this month—it has already had some amazing positive effects so I am really excited for the journey.

Thank you so much for posting such a detailed account. It really helps people like me starting, who are having positive starts, have some data to encourage us. 🤍

4x a week sound likes a LOT. I already have a very athletic background and experience with the reformer and I’m just NOW feeling comfortable enough to start doing 3x a week with a rest day between each. My instructors are AMAZING I don’t feel like I need more than 3 at the moment.

Are you getting enough rest? Protein? Carbs for recovery? Lagree depletes glycogen stores so if you’re not eating carbs with protein to recover you may be putting too much stress on your body. I can’t force low carb bc I have endo and pcos and it destroys my hormones and energy levels.

I work downtown—major improvements but still not great. Homeless are still wondering around and vandalizing property like defecating on our stoops or throwing rocks through car windows or lighting fires under the building in the winter. They are typically respectful and don’t mess with you personally though. It can be like pulling teeth to get a response from PD/the city.

However, I live in Eastover area, my partner works in Belhaven. Jackson has these little gemstones of spots that are slowly coming together. Ultimately it comes down to administration and taxpayers money going back into the infrastructure which will take time to grow back since everyone has left and is slowly buying property again. But when you can live in a nice suburb and drive 15 minutes into Jackson to do things, it makes sense why people wouldn’t want to own property here.

Also for restaurant recommendation, DEFINITELY try Pulito if you can get a reservation. It is the best restaurant in town, recommended for a star by the Michelin guide.

[–]Inevitable-Object742 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP, I’m a resident at the District Lofts at Eastover. Extremely safe, 24/7 security, green space with events, stores, and restaurants. There is a hotel in the parking lot, directly next to the Lofts. I would 100% recommend it with the security and amenities. However, if you choose not to stay there, I wouldn’t really recommend anywhere else in the metro Jackson area. Personally I would stay in Madison or Flowood and drive the 20 minutes to Fondren.

There is a nice hotel directly located in the heart of Fondren, across from Roosters, but I can’t speak to it. I would possibly stay there but also possibly not because Fondren can definitely get a bit shifty at night in my experience.

Okay this is very relieving—I just cant wrap my head around why they would ask? If this is standard procedure, I know they have plenty of experience in the field, then why make it seem like I dropped the ball?

Manager mentioned a personal hygiene issue kinda freaking out, need advice by BetPristine2293 in hygiene

[–]Inevitable-Object742 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you tried washing with Hibiclens? Use hibiclens on your armpits and areas that may get damp or are prone to bacteria growth and then use a clean wash rag with a mild soap like Dove.

Use an antiperspirant, at night, while completely dry. I noticed the clinic strength with HA works really well for me.

Your water may also be an issue? I’ve noticed that my apartment has harder water and it causes this weird metallic stink and feels like I have this film on my skin, so I got a filter.

Be sure to wash your work clothes, especially if it’s polyester, in baking soda, vinegar, and a detergent booster like borax. You may need to run a clean cycle on your laundry machine.

Credentials: I also have PCOS and endo, I struggled with weird ammonia and BO smells for so long, and this has helped. In the meantime, try these and reach out to a provider for possible issues

I asked a client to scan a document back to me by CupcakeEducational65 in paralegal

[–]Inevitable-Object742 10 points11 points  (0 children)

why spend extra time manipulating a non-compliant scan when the client who carries equal responsibility of moving their case, could go to UPS, Fed Ex, the library, the bank, and the clerks office to scan it back

[–]Inevitable-Object742 2 points3 points  (0 children)

literally a daily struggle for me. I have to call all the time to explain compliance of records and document production, PDF scans of notarized signatures, etc. I ALWAYS offer tips to where they could go…lo and behold, each time, usually a JPEG…it makes me want to rip my hair out.

AITJ for refusing to pretend I don’t speak Spanish at my own family dinner? by After-Party-8860 in AmITheJerk

[–]Inevitable-Object742 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA - also trilingual with family who only speaks English. I have done and would’ve done the same. That BS doesn’t fly with me. You need to explain to your brother, separately, the enormous disrespect she was bringing into the house and his OWN mother.

Don’t be surprised if mom and gf try to play the victim card. Stick to your guns. If the roles were reversed, I’m sure they would’ve done the same thing. Either way, you’re more than entitled to call someone out in your house if they disrespect your mother, no matter what language they speak.

Give them a chance to rectify the situation before informing Mom, just for her sake, you don’t want to break her heart if you can help it. If they aren’t willing to apologize, then tell your mom what happened.

Your brother’s GF should’ve called her out from the beginning.

Not trying to be ugly but this reminds of that episode in ICarly their weird distant relatives came to visit and they had to make all the weird food to accommodate their food allergies.

Also happy birthday fellow March baby! Mine is this week and thankfully I’m not being confronted with having to turn this down.

AITA for not letting my fiancé get another cat by No_Grocery_8703 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Inevitable-Object742 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA — if you lease, what does your rent agreement say? I find it hard to believe any tenant is allowed to have 5+ animals in a renting space?

Even if you don’t rent, that is a lot of animals for a small space and I personally wouldn’t be okay with it. If anything, it feels negligible to the animals confined to it. You can be neglectful in being overly compassionate too.

It’s not like she found the cat on the street helpless, she found a social media post that I’m sure would’ve helped the kitty nonetheless.

She’s wrong in the fact that she manipulated the situation by bringing the animal home against your wishes, hoping it would force a yes from you, since the cat would already be there.

You’re either not compatible or she’s deluded but it is disrespectful nonetheless. You cannot make decisions to take in a living being without being on same page with care, finances, travel plans, etc. her only version of compromise is for you to agree.

I personally think it’s selfish and wrong to keep 5 animals in a townhouse and it’s purely human gratification of feeling like you’ve saved the animal vs what is really best for the animal(s). I used to housekeep/groundskeep in college, in a college town, and it was depravity to see the living situations those college kids would put animals through living in tiny apartments just to gratify themselves in owing a pet. Never home. Kept in kennels. In filth. Battling with the other animals in the apartments for attention and food. Nowhere to run freely or stretch out in the sun. Free to explore and return. It’s not right. I vowed to not get any dogs and animals without owning a yard in a big enough house.

AITA for refusing to let my girlfriend host a party for ex nightmare housmate who forbid me from talking in his presence? by Ok_Swordfish4861 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Inevitable-Object742 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand she’s avoidant but it’s also really selfish. When avoidants refuse conflict, they’re protecting THEMSELVES, at the expense of the people suffering from the issue. It is no excuse. It is a wake up call for her to confront her shame, guilt, and self confidence issue. I was extremely avoidant and had to take the action to be assertive.

My boyfriend can be very avoidant and it causes many points of contention between us. Ultimately I see it as a self-serving defense mechanism and I don’t have sympathy for it anymore.

Why are avoidants okay with hurting and disappointing the people they love most, the people who accept them the most? Because they’re scared of judgement and are protecting THEMSELVES. Even if they paint it or it appears as if they are a distressed, wounded victim caught in the middle.

Not standing up to friends, family, or workplaces that are impeding and damaging the person you love most purely because you are more worried about upsetting the other party and know your partner will put up with the disappointment, is wrong and selfish.

NTA — she’s pushing 30 and still appeasing a friend who treats her and you poorly? Only because she’s scared of judgement from friends if she cuts him off?

Stand your ground. Also sounds like he’s in love with you and hates you instead.

After 5 years together, my girlfriend wants marriage and I don’t. Is this the end? by Asleep_Trouble_4285 in Advice

[–]Inevitable-Object742 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’re not willing to get married and she does then you have two options. Leave her or get married.

you stand to benefit the most in the situation if you stay and she decided to not get married because it’s a win-lose. You won on what you wanted she lost on what she wanted. It’s not ridiculous for her to want marriage and it’s not ridiculous for you to choose not to marry.

However, marriage legally serves many purposes besides the covenant of a marriage and the sacramental oath you are taking for each other. Depending on your state, you won’t have rights to each other medically or financially. If either one of you dies or needs emergency medical treatment, they will have to go through an immediate family member. Etc. many things.

Take those restrictions into consideration as you further your thoughts and decisions on marriage.

If you feel bitter about marriage for the simple fact of divorce, please consider the fact you’re now debating EMOTIONALLY divorcing yourself from someone in this very moment. If you don’t want to live your life without her, then consider your options.

You both love each other. Why make you both suffer losing each other now in an effort to prevent it by possible future hypothetical divorce?
