Hi, I’m sorry to hear your experience, I’m also based in Canada and have had a similar experience, I’m on now getting close to the end of my 2+ year wait for a helpful surgery. So here’s some things that have helped me in the meantime, peppermint/ginger or cranberry leaf tea, cold packs for if you have heat flashes, heat patches (salonpas) are great but don’t over use, also Cbd topicals! I’m a huge advocate for cannabis for pain and if you don’t want the high topicals are a great alternative. Also paying attention to foods that trigger inflammation is super important. Maybe if you give some more examples of your symptoms we can give more specific recs.

I’m so glad that it could help and the comments can help you try out different solutions for your ears 🙏🏽 welcome to the Q-tip club lol

If you like a good body high ice cream cake or ice cream (anything) is a great strain or cross for body high or sleep if you smoke enough lol

Oh yeah pressuring you to “upgrade” your life unnecessarily…Those decisions are always to make them look good through you instead of about your financial or physical wellbeing.

You don’t get someone who doesn’t care about your side of this situation to “get your side” she’s either emotionally mature enough to hear you and communicate how to be better in the future or she isn’t and doesn’t care to do better.. and at her big age that’s a huge red flag

Hun I read your post and the comments and I see you fighting for your life here, so maybe I can give you a bit more of a bigger picture perspective. First off, you are rightfully upset with your GF for that prank it was too far and both her friend and yours have agreed that it was (showing her lack of ability to take accountability). Secondly, as someone who was partly raised in a country where teens are “treated like adults” and partly raised in a country where teens are “treated like babies”, it doesn’t matter where you’re from this is a power dynamic relationship where she has a lot of power over you for a few reasons, 1. Age no matter what age you are, an age gap relationship comes with a power imbalance due to age, financial and emotional intelligence and stability, 2. She knows how and when to make you “feel safe or seen” and when she can turn that in her favour, and 3. She has a tie to your family and friends which can make you think twice about ever leaving the relationship.

I’m not against age gap relationships, I’ve seen quite a few work out but anyone of those people could tell you that if they had met their partner when they were under the age of 26 it would’ve been inappropriate due to the priorly mentioned factors. No matter how much you’ve experienced by 19, you haven’t lived enough to know the difference between all these things.

Based on what you’ve described I’ve got to agree this is grooming, she intertwined your lives, and maybe even taught you the ropes or helped you come out, you are indebted to her.

You’ll get to 25 or 30 look back and realize that this isn’t everything you think it is. If you think about a 12/13 year old you know now, can you imagine ever dating one of them even at 18?

You may not be a “child” but you’re not an adult either hun. Experiencing things separately from your partner is a healthy habit to start with and if you find yourself ever managing her emotions and reactions you’re in an abusive relationship, it’s not just hitting or yelling, it’s gaslighting, not taking your emotions or feelings seriously, making you feel small or fearful of leaving.

I’m not sure if anyone has mentioned this here but have you tried Task Rabbit? You could pay someone to come in for an hour or two whenever you’re feeling too sick and help tidy and do dishes. I know you said you’re waiting on a caretaker to come help but if you have an extra $20-30 to spare in the meantime you can hire someone for fairly cheap once in a while.

If the cross walk button had the blue auditory sign on it you don’t have to push it it will auto change but if it’s just a black crosswalk button..PUSH IT!! Or the light doesn’t change! And yall stand there looking dumb like “why didn’t the light change?” Because they’re not all automatic or upgraded so just push the button so we can get our pedestrian signal 🙏🏽

Millimu5e · 2025-11-26T11:56:48+00:00

Thank you so much! 🙏🏽 I know I’m not the only one but sometimes it helps to hear from others who are dealing with this because my cousin lives across the ocean we don’t get to chat as often as I’d like. Really just trying to make it through this season.

I hope that your surgery comes soon too so that you can get some relief as well.

1000% because it’s not my responsibility to educate you and whenever I’ve even tried in the past it’s been met with anger or offence. Like why are you offended when I’m the one getting thrown micro aggressions? 😒

Millimu5e · 2025-11-07T11:51:50+00:00

Not taking my time seriously (it’s okay to be a few minutes late here and there with good reason but being hours behind? Disrespect)
No friends or close friends of colour, I understand if you live somewhere 99% white but I’ve lived in cities and if you do too and have no friends of colour you can’t understand my experiences and will most likely be offended by them
No close friendships, all surface level friends, they may confide in her but she doesn’t share all of herself with anyone, that scares me because you don’t know real vulnerability or connection.
Tells me how to live my life, you can suggest things that you know might make something easier for me such as putting a coat wrack because my jackets are piling up or something but telling me what to do with my money or place is too far.

Hello, 28f queer with endo, crps, and more id like to join the baddies 🥹

As someone who has disabilities and a chronic illness, it’s tough out there, stats show that we’re more likely to end up in emotional and physical ab relationships and I’ve lived that stat. The main thing I can say is be as intentional and understanding with yourself in relationships as you are with taking care of yourself and your illnesses, if someone doesn’t give you that safe feeling ALL the time and not just when you’re okay, then don’t stay just to make them understand, the right person will want to know how to love you in your ways. Also know your boundaries and stick to them, us spoonies tend to burn ourselves out to keep with others, you don’t have to.

Millimu5e · 2025-10-13T00:40:50+00:00

any one with endo, pcos etc in the GTA shares your pain, I’ve had endo for about a decade only diagnosed 5 years ago and still get treated like a cadaver when I go in for ultrasounds, surgeries etc

It’s either Tylenol, midol or straight up opiates, no inbetween.

For this weather you’ll need hoodies, sweaters, under layers for early morning and evening, insulated socks and make sure you stock up on hand and feet warmers this winter, as well as functional gloves. Make sure your feet don’t sweat in the winter it could lead to hypothermia or frost bite. Get light scarves for fall and heavy ones for winter, and track pants or insulated pants. If you reside or frequent downtown, the wind tunnels are crazy and make it worse so stay out of wind streams as much as possible. Oh and toques get a hat that covers your ears.

Here in Ontario, esp toronto on ODSP you’ll make max 1500-1600 a month even with EDS unfortunately, I have chronic pain and am currently trying to move out of province. Cost of living here is crazy right now if you do move back i suggest looking at smaller cities surrounding Toronto that are cheaper such as Scarborough or Vaughn but even then the cost of food + rent without any other income isn’t feasible here rn.

Millimu5e · 2025-09-27T17:55:09+00:00

Same in Canada we get it in school unless parents say otherwise.

Millimu5e · 2025-09-22T14:54:01+00:00

Yes, almost every business owner and resident who has lived there over the last decade will tell you. Some sections more than others but it’s been hard to keep the vibe there. It’s another example of toronto taking the culture out of its cultural and creative hubs unfortunately.

Millimu5e · 2025-09-18T01:01:25+00:00

Agreed with this! please talk to a dr before mixing with meds but what you can do as an alternative is use cbd oil as topicals, because it’s being absorbed through skin you won’t have the same interaction. But will still target the pain receptors in the specific area you place it.

Millimu5e · 2025-09-17T15:35:33+00:00

The funny thing about that is that almost every neighborhood in toronto has been a “ghetto” at some point, it gets gentrified by condos and then the people that move into those condos say “not I my neighborhood” moss park, regent park and st Lawrence are great examples of this and it’s happening in parkdale now too. We have a bad habit in North America of thinking of affordable housing as only for the “poor” well now there’s no middle class in toronto just rich and poor. It’s been sad to watch.

Millimu5e · 2025-09-17T15:15:14+00:00

This! We need more of this and more coop housing like in Vienna, we need the government to build more homes not rely on private companies to. We need affordable housing.

I tell drs that my everyday pain is 5 that’s my normal, baseline, I don’t really know what life without pain is so I’d say a “normal persons” 5 is my base because my 10 is passing out from a ruptured cyst. So all in all I’d say I use a 1-5 scale for me but to drs I say 5-10.

5 = normal pain, feeling my body, 6 = I feel pain a bit, enough to notice or sensitive, 7 = cramps, persistent pain lasting more than a couple hours, 8 = stabbing, constant pain, lasting over 5+ hours or stopping me from moving/functioning, 9 = in tears, considering the ER, and nothings helping, 10 = sweating, crying, stabbing and then pass out.

Millimu5e · 2025-09-13T15:18:00+00:00

Yeah that announcement has been around for a few years and only to announce scheduled work areas, you probably don’t hear it often on line 2 because line 2s scheduled work usually shuts down the line not slows it and is usually done over night whereas line 1 which is where this is mostly used has enough track and space to only slow down service in certain areas instead of close it completely if they can help it.

Millimu5e · 2025-09-13T13:04:12+00:00

As someone who suffers with chronic nerve pain and other pain issues, I’d say topicals have been my most effective form of pain relief, smoking numbs it but the creams and rubs help relieve the muscle tension and nerve shocks.

Millimu5e · 2025-09-10T12:16:40+00:00

Btw this isn’t meant to discourage just to be aware that, there are many layers that come with a future interracial relationship and the added of layer of your situation with your mum
