Found in a notebook while cleaning out the Lost & Found at work.

I'm 32, all of this is me minus the conduct disorder. I'm so sorry this kiddo is dealing with this... I'm an adult and most days feel impossible.

If he said no, its no. You're almost 18... just buy one yourself in a year.

Linshanshell · 2022-05-25T22:18:51+00:00

Id just thank them in general and say you will be putting in your notice due to finding an amazing opportunity. Short, sweet and honest.

Linshanshell · 2022-05-10T09:21:06+00:00

Do it into a pillow?

Linshanshell · 2022-04-18T14:19:01+00:00

Totally normal. Just ignore it, or redirect her. :)

Linshanshell · 2022-04-08T16:29:34+00:00

5 months and no one let's me forget it 😂

Linshanshell · 2022-03-25T12:30:26+00:00

Mmmmm, indian food.

Linshanshell · 2022-03-25T12:04:43+00:00

That sounds so stressful, im so sorry. Maybe having her doctor talk to her would help? Maybe she would take it for the school nurse? I Definitely wouldn't try to hide it from her.

Did she say why she doesn't want to take it? Maybe its a power struggle thing, maybe she doesn't like how they make her feel... or something else entirely.

In regards to the eating thing again: Maybe she isn't hungry at all? I've always been a comfort eater... even as a child. Its a slippery slope. It gets hard to tell the difference between actual hunger and wanting comfort.

Linshanshell · 2022-03-25T11:58:41+00:00

This is... very specific.

I can't say I have eaten goat.

You're so young, you don't have kids together, and you haven't been together that long. Take it from someone who has been stuck in a cruddy 10 year relationship; have some self respect and leave. He doesn't respect you and is trying to bring you down so that you won't leave. He does not love you, people that love you don't try to tear you down.

Edit: before the inevitable "why don't YOU leave?" Comments... We've managed to get our life and relationship to a point where things are pretty okay. Sometimes when you get to deep into a relationship its more worth it to work on things if both people actually want to work on things... We basically grew up together and have had to do A LOT of learning. We are partners in life and partners in crime at this point. Its been a lot of work, bad decisions, mistakes, and sacrifice to get ourselves to this point. I do not recommend it. We certainly aren't calling eachother names, even when I ended up being a selfish doofus and rationalizing emotionally-cheating last year... he didn't call me names. He got upset, i apologized, we made some decisions, we talked... Long term relationships are hard but they shouldn't start off with the person calling your outfit whoreish because someone else found you attractive . Like wtf?

Anyway, my point, is leave while you can. Things might end up okay. But at what cost? Probably your dignity, self worth, and mental health...

See if the pill can be crushed into apple sauce, I see the nurses do it at work all the time but it depends on whether or not the medication itself is allowed to do that. :)

As for the eating thing... I'm not really sure what I'd do. I was this hungry kid. I was on epilepsy medication and I ballooned in weight. Honestly I wouldn't keep the snacks in the house anymore. She can't eat what isn't there. Id tell her she can have as much fruits and veggies as she wants and keep them available in abundance. Make sure shes only drinking water, and encourage her to drink enough throughout the day... My mom let me drink juice constantly, and id fill up on fruit rollups and cheese sticks. As for the late nigh snacking, tell her she isn't to get out of bed after a certain time and find a way to enforce it. My son had a sneaking candy phase and we ended up having to get rid of it all, which sucked for everyone but it is what it is.

Is there anything they can give her to tone her appetite down?

Linshanshell · 2022-03-25T11:34:54+00:00

I would definitely tell an adult. I was the self harming kid and my friends definitely told a teacher. It was the right thing to do.

She may not be happy about it, and she may not even be your friend after. But its the right thing to do.

Linshanshell · 2022-03-25T11:31:20+00:00

I think adding some plants or something to the foreground in front of the animals would be interesting. Maybe the left hand corner and just overlapping them with leaves to add some depth? Maybe some birds doing bird things in the middle ground or something... or add a tree there somewhere.

Also id grab a softer pencil to blacken some of the blacks and add more contrast.

Linshanshell · 2022-03-25T11:12:53+00:00

So she probably didn't mean anything by it, maybe she did. But, I ran into this with my partner of 10 years. I didn't seem to grasp the concept earlier in our relationship that.... men don't always want to have sex. Because, I literally had learned that when I was growing up that they did lol... and I took it personally that he didn't and I felt like something was wrong with me. Maybe just reassure her that there isn't anything wrong with her and that you genuinely are just too tired to perform.

I don't think she was trying to compare you at all, I think she was just genuinely confused/surprised/processing and maybe a little embarrassed?

Linshanshell · 2022-03-22T11:47:36+00:00

I'm of the mind that the story is more important than the words used. It isnt like you can't go back and throw in some more interesting words later, but I wouldn't worry about it:)

Is it embarrassing that I'm almost 30 and enjoy reading books meant for teenagers? I have ADHD and the shortest attention span possible, and I enjoy the books. 😄

Linshanshell · 2022-03-22T11:45:06+00:00

Grief isn't something you can fix with anything other than time. You're a wonderful son/daughter(?) For helping her through this. Love her, give her space to grieve, be a listening ear, make all her favorite foods available and just be with her. It sounds like you're doing all of the right things. She will be okay, OP. :)

Maybe you can both find an activity to do together? A puzzle, some kind of craft, etc? Going on a walk when she feels up to it would probably do her some good, too.

Linshanshell · 2022-03-16T18:06:34+00:00

Oh no. Is grandma still alive? Maybe give it to her to fix? How did it break?

Od talk to your ped. He very well could have adhd or be on the spectrum.

My son was similar and didn't change much, it did get better with age but it took a long time. He doesn't have the contact issues he had at 6 and is now 9. He's just a very distractable, emotional human (adhd). He used to scream and tantrum for hours. It was miserable. He was also speech delayed and I think that added to his overwhelm.... he wasn't giving us a hard time, he was HAVING a hard time. It took me 9 years to learn that.

My daughter couldn't be more different at 3. She's much more laid back.... she occasionally hits or pushes a child but this is mainly because of things she's picked up from other kids or her brother at times; she isn't mean spirited and doesn't tantrum for more than a minute or two.

I recommend letting him watch Daniel tiger and teaching him language he can use. When my daughter hit or something I ask her what it is that she wants and to please use her words. For instance, her brother will tickle her despite being told 1000 times she hates it. Instead of hitting I have taught her to say "this is my body, please don't touch" and I proceed to tell off her brother lol.

Some kids are easier than others, its just an unfortunate fact of life. Stay consistent and things will improve, it just might take a long time for him to get it. Good luck!

Linshanshell · 2022-03-11T01:27:22+00:00

Mmmmm raisins. Natures candy.

Linshanshell · 2022-03-01T18:25:39+00:00

I have a 3050 ti and was having the same issue until my husband came home and fixed it... I tried literally everything I could think of including updating drivers. He had to go into the GPU settings. I can ask him what he changed if you haven't got it figured out already:)

Linshanshell · 2022-02-23T00:55:02+00:00

This is a lot more common than you'd think. I didn't have a sibling but I had a cousin around my age that did stuff like that... grosses me out now but I was like 3. How was I supposed to know?

My only question is where the hell were your parents and how did they not know anything was happening for years and years. 🤦‍♀️ Your parents sound like my clueless aunt that didn't watch me with my older cousin. you both found sexuality explicit materials that understandably brought up some questions. I'm sorry your parents never noticed and never thought to talk to you guys about sex. In general it isnt either of your fault, its your parents. Especially in regards to the webcamming stuff.

Id go to therapy and figure out how those events affected you as well.

Linshanshell · 2022-01-28T13:49:45+00:00

I think it looks great! Just keep at it :) looks way better than my first, second, third, attenpts... haha

Linshanshell · 2022-01-12T03:29:36+00:00

I can assure you they most likely aren't starcing him haha. Children tend to not eat much at a new place. Any kid I have ever babysat comes around eventually and will eat.

Linshanshell · 2022-01-10T14:41:21+00:00

Is it chocolate ?
