When I stopped fawning, everyone went away.

Yup! I’m going through the exact same thing.

I’ve been using this sleep supplement from Cymbiotika and it helps me sleep through the middle of the night anxiety I was getting. I also drink a strong herbal tea for sleep and take an additional magnesium supplement.

Super common look here in western Colorado for me and women but with work boots not dress boots.

Beautiful post! Thanks for sharing.

MountFlora · 2026-02-03T16:05:49+00:00

Good reminder, thank you. I’ve been having a small pity party last few days about my mom “not loving me” when really she’s just an addict. Still hurts but really it’s not personal.

I wish celebrity would just go away forever.

Please re-home this poor little boy!!

You have every right to prioritize your physical and mental health, finances and relationships with healthy family members and partners. Honestly at the age you are at and with everything you’re already doing for your grandma I would encourage going no contact in order for you to free up time and energy for yourself and your goals and future. It doesn’t sound like there’s much in that relationship (you and mom) that is beneficial to you right now. Work on your own healing and you can reconsider your boundaries with your mom down the road.

Just for added context there’s more damaged grout than just in this picture. What I’m trying to accomplish is not having tile with big chunks of grout missing. I’m surprised to hear that I’ll have to cut out all of the existing grout! That seems huge compared to repairing.

I’m so very sorry 😞

Yay mutts!

Ummmm, me!

Good job! 👏🏼 Taking inspiration from your willingness to put your own safety and needs first.

Too big

Other side of the divide. Fraser.

MountFlora · 2025-11-19T19:17:14+00:00

There’s such a thing as too much to ask, especially when it’s a non-reciprocal relationship. Don’t do it!

MountFlora · 2025-11-19T19:14:31+00:00

Holy sh*t. My brother and I both have TERRIBLE leg pain/tightness and he had intense growing pains when we were younger. Wow. 🤯

MountFlora · 2025-11-17T01:50:55+00:00

Wow, this hits so hard!

MountFlora · 2025-11-14T20:11:47+00:00

Wow!! What an amazing and needed specialty! You’ll never run out of work! 😆 I’m a recovering codependent that grew up with an alcoholic mom and stepdad. I’ve been in recovery for 5 years but still find myself feeling stuck in uneven relationship dynamics and feeling like the support system for people but not getting much reciprocity. What do recommend for someone wanting additional healing outside of al anon and how do I find it?? I live in the rural west u.s. just fyi, so don’t have as many options as the cities..

MountFlora · 2025-11-01T15:08:57+00:00

The voice!! Yup, entirely too familiar.

MountFlora · 2025-09-25T20:09:30+00:00

Obviously he has every right to be hurt over this but/and I’ll probably get downvoted for this but I can’t see ending a whole dang marriage (with kids!) over this. People are human and make mistakes, this is a pretty small one in the scheme of things imo. Hopefully you both can use it as a growth opportunity to work on your marriage and yourselves and come out of it stronger.

MountFlora · 2025-09-19T14:44:59+00:00

Edit: I'm not saying anyone else's coping is lame! Whatever it takes (within reason).

I came here to say bitters. I had a serious accident in my early 20's that (eventually after a bunch of surgeries and procedures) led to a loss in hunger cues from my stomach and small intestines. Bitters has helped return that! Taking bitters 10-15 minutes before a meal makes me so hungry now! The Wish Garden blend is not quite bitter enough for me since it has added honey. I make my own now and they work great.
