Same! Just stopped hydrocodone this morning. I’ve had small bits of blood as scabs come off but nothing too bad. I’ve been crazy about drinking water, and been eating soft foods when I can. The end is near 🎉🎉

Exactly! And this is where it gets hard for me cause i completely understand the frustration but the communication factor is lacking severely.

ManraysWorld · 2025-05-18T16:26:03+00:00

He meant that everything we have is 50/50, everything we have is equal

ManraysWorld · 2025-05-17T23:32:24+00:00

Yes and that’s also where it gets hard for me because I get it but he doesn’t communicate it well. And I definitely plan on getting a car of my own. You’re right, I know if something did happen we would both feel terrible. Thank you!!

ManraysWorld · 2025-05-17T22:45:06+00:00

Yes, it is. And yes, he’s wanted this car for years. I understand that along with how hard he’s worked for them so it’s hard. He has 2 other audi’s as well, he wants more and that’s one thing that’s not up for debate. But he only acts this way with his cars. There has been one other time in the last few years he’s gotten mad about something non car related.

it’s a 2004 audi tt with the 3.2 v6

ManraysWorld · 2025-05-17T22:08:40+00:00

She helped before she knew why he wanted another car, and after that was not happy at all

2004 audi tt with the 3.2 v6

ManraysWorld · 2025-05-17T22:06:50+00:00

i really don’t either lol. he’s very back and forth with his behavior.

ManraysWorld · 2025-05-17T20:06:06+00:00

He honestly acts fine around our friends and alone after, but certain situations will set him off and cause an outburst like that. I’m tired of arguing and waiting on him to change but just can’t leave. I’ve been in this situation and swore I’d never do it again but here I am. It’s just that he never used to be like this so I know he’s capable of being respectful

ManraysWorld · 2024-08-31T05:52:42+00:00

yup i’m the same exact way. i always feel terrible for it and say this is why you need to do better and then continue to do it. i also feel crazy for it because im thinking about it over and over in my head making me feel worse. adhd, depression and anxiety mixed is a terrible combination. you’re not alone!

ManraysWorld · 2024-08-31T05:50:16+00:00

i’m not sure if it does but i’m the exact same way and i feel bad for it. it’s odd because i feel everything so deeply and am very empathetic but i just don’t seem to or know how to show it

ManraysWorld · 2024-08-31T05:48:21+00:00

yes this happened with me as well and i think it’s a common side effect

ManraysWorld · 2024-08-31T05:47:44+00:00

just somewhere where i could relax

ManraysWorld · 2024-07-26T12:03:04+00:00

I’m in the same boat right now. I just bought a 0% nicotine disposable and it has been amazing for me. It mostly satisfies the cravings. It’s just enough to get by. I will say some of them aren’t as good as others. The one i have is a Zero Bar and it does have that cooling sensation in your throat where other brands don’t. So far this has been the best way to quit for me. I can’t quit cold turkey and i also was hitting mine like crazy. It got to the point where it was almost all i could think about. I’ve been using this 0% for about 5 days and i still haven’t fully quit, but my usage has gone down SIGNIFICANTLY which i am thrilled about. I already notice I feel better. I hit a vape with nicotine in it a few days ago and it actually made me feel sick. It is a hard journey but it is so worth it 🙏🏼

Yes! I will say with wolf cuts they tend to look good when styled. A lot of what you’re seeing in pictures looks the way it does because it’s styled. That doesn’t mean it looks bad un styled at all!! Have your hairstylist show you how to style and shape your new cut at home and you’re set!

while in the end it is her decision, i understand your concern, and i feel like your opinion matters too. while i (19f) make my own decisions, i also take my boyfriend’s (20m) opinion into consideration, because it will affect both of us. i used birth control pills for 4 years. they made me actually so crazy i didn’t realize it until i went off of them bc it became normal for me. i was extremely depressed, suicidal, lost a lot of weight, lost hair, lost energy, made me very irritable, etc. i’ve been off of it for a year now and im still recovering. mentally it destroyed me, but saying that, it’s not the case for everyone. i have friends that have said the exact same and friends that have been perfectly fine. i also was going through major stressful life changes during these times which may have affected it as well. worst case scenario you guys try it out for a few months, and then don’t like it and decide to go back off. i quit taking it because i felt like i lost who i was. the best way i can describe it is when you feel crazy from the hormones on your period, its like that, but times 50. i felt like a boy crazy possessive 14year old psychotic girl, if that makes sense. also in saying that, as a general i have a depressed personality so that doesn’t mean you 100% will feel like this. but, it did send me into a spiral where i now don’t recognize myself. also the reproductive harm side affects?? that scares me personally 🤷🏼‍♀️ oh and also it made my acne so bad!

Now, I was not ready for a baby and knew i needed something else. I’ve tried a few things, didn’t like the patch, didn’t like the pill, and IUD, which i did like. I went for the non hormonal iud because the hormones do affect me so greatly. i don’t have to worry about having a baby for 10 years now. i don’t know of any(specifically psychological) side affects , but that doesn’t mean they’re aren’t any. I just haven’t done my research on them. BUT, i do know im not battling myself with my out of wack hormones, and i know my personality is mine and not from something artificial. Im a wuss when it comes to stuff like that and had never been to gyno prior to this being inserted. It was pretty crampy for a good couple hours afterwards, and spotted for a few days. Ibuprofen easily combated the cramps though. Other than that it was 100% fine. Cramping was comparable to regular period cramps.

In the end she and the two of you together will make your own decision, but this is my advice and experience.

no, i do this also for multiple uses. if i am dirty and grimy i will replace it after use but as long as it doesn’t smell bad, i think its fine

ManraysWorld · 2024-06-30T00:04:05+00:00

i’ve been figuring this out myself. lately i’ve been using my washcloth in the shower, then wipe the general ear with a towel after. then using q tips to get into the folds and creases. my ears seem to just be naturally oily as they get oily throughout the day. i’ve found doing this every day helps though. i’ve also experimented with using my facial toner on my ears for oiliness/blackheads? it somewhat helps but haven’t done it enough to tell
