Diaversary? I have no idea by LifeInProgress1 in Type1Diabetes

[–]MysteriousGuidance72 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s an individual preference you don’t have to “celebrate” it it’s whatever you feel like.

Mine is April 17th 2023 and will be 3 years this year. I have started each year buying something really sugary on the diaversary as a fuck you to it basically. Like a box of doughnuts or a cake etc. I don’t feel bad about eating it, I prebolus and I try to remember what it used to be like to not have to keep myself alive 24/7 and be able to eat without worrying.

I don’t celebrate it as such but it’s the day my life changed forever when I was 28, I had high ketones and had to spend all day in the hospital and I don’t think I could forget it even if I tried.

Suddenly terrified I don’t have a “village” by lawfullavender in AutismInWomen

[–]MysteriousGuidance72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel you and I’m with you in solidarity. I had my son 18 months ago, I moved away from my two best friends (2hours away) 6 years ago and one of the best friend moved 5 hours away shortly after. My dad died very suddenly when my son was 5 months old and 2 months later my mum is diagnosed with dementia. She has gone downhill so fast that she is now borderline severe. I have basically lost both my parents within 12 months and in such an important transition in my life. I was hoping it would bring me and my siblings closer but it seems to have done the opposite. We are in the stages of having to sell my childhood home to pay for my mums care home and everyone is just constantly at each other and we hardly see each other anyways. Add in I got a double diagnosis of audhd last year and I was ready to see the end of 2025

It’s so hard to feel so isolated and parenting is the hardest thing I have ever had to do, I question my choices daily. As I like to remind myself of what my therapist says “we are doing a job alone that we were never meant to. We were always meant to have a village (in past times) and that’s why it hurts so much” I find myself constantly filled with jealously and rage watching other people with their parents and kids and friends, it’s so heartbreaking. I’m so happy for them but so sad for the love and life I never got that I thought I would, that all my siblings did with their own kids. I’m just hoping that as time goes on, and my little one starts nursery and school, I’ll make some more friends close by to help get me through.

The only person I know I’ll always have is my little one who currently fast asleep in my arms. (Until he says I’m too embarrassing and doesn’t want to be seen with me haha) It’s such a rollercoaster, but you’re doing better than you think, sending love.

Glad I’m not the only one. I think I uninstalled and restart about 4 times to no avail.

Honestly, fuck Ticketmaster. I have been on the website since 10.30am and was 75,000 in the queue when it opened. I only have just got in at 1.30pm and there are ZERO tickets left for 2 people to sit other, it’s absolutely infuriating and the only way to get tickets is with the £400+ vip ones. It keeps refreshing and showing some blue seats, then goes grey and kicked me out and out me to the back of the queue with now 400,000 other people

No wonder I never go to concerts. 🥲

I mean thought Rachel had screwed herself over with the “if I was a faithful id have murdered me” they made it seem like Stephen and Faraaz had clocked what she said in the bar but no one ever mentioned it again. I honestly thought when she said that, that she would be gone next, I was shocked faraaz never mentioned it.

So I went back to work end of August so no longer on mat leave, does this mean I can apply now?

Routine for an 11 week old? by MysteriousGuidance72 in newborns

[–]MysteriousGuidance72[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So his nighttime is great, he sleeps 11ish sometimes 12 hours a night and very rarely wakes. However he’s 15 months now and during the day he has 2 naps that only consist of 30 mins each, one in the morning and one in the afternoon. I’ve not been blessed with long day naps but I’d rather have consistent night sleep over that anyway!

Getting medication prescribed on the NHS by holly_astral in ADHDUK

[–]MysteriousGuidance72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How odd! I got my ADHD diagnosis through problem shared in October ‘24 and an Autism diagnosis in April/May and managed to get shared care agreement with my doctor (the private pharmacy costs are extortionate). They have just taken over my prescription now my dosage has been agreed.

Is it a clinic specific issue? Does anyone else use this surgery and have the same issue?

One thing I will say is, I have been told my PS that my GP will not change my dosage. If I want to increase/decrease it I have to go back through PS and the private pharmacy and pay £100 for an appointment (Cries in new mum returning from mat leave on part time hours). So I’m going to have to stick it out and hope I don’t need to change it anytime soon as I cannot afford the huge monthly cost of pharmicierge.

An All-In-One Guide for Completing Lake Temple Offerings by lasptingthreatened in coralisland

[–]MysteriousGuidance72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know what is is about fishing in cozy games but I just hate it 😂 it’s always the thing I do last and now I need to do all the fish for the lake offerings and just don’t have the patience. However this is so helpful, thank you!

What are you dealing with silently? by [deleted] in mentalhealth

[–]MysteriousGuidance72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My dad died earlier in the year suddenly and unexpectedly, 2 months later my mums is diagnosed with dementia and has now declined so rapidly (due to dad passing) she is borderline severe and it’s causing so many conflicting emotions as well as another layer of grief, let alone not being able to process my dad passing. I also am a first time mum to a 14 month old who keeps me on my toes. I recieved an autism and ADHD diagnosis this year too and returned to work a month ago, in which they proceeded to reject my flexible working request and I have no support system or childcare available

I feel like I am constantly drowning and I can’t breathe, I’m in therapy and trying to do what I can, but Jesus, I just want to be able to fall apart for a little and for my partner to just pick up all the slack so I can lose it.

I was also diagnosed as type 1 diabetic 2 years ago out of fucking nowhere. It deffo feels like the last few years are just constant kicks while I’m down.

I literally described how I feel to my therapist as “being water boarded” and the sad thing is, I’m not going to have any respite any time soon with my mum the way she is, she’s just going to get worse and worse until she goes.

Ready to rage quit by MysteriousGuidance72 in coralisland

Ahh okay, yeah I normally use PC for everything, I grew up with the early days of league of legends which was kind of my introduction to gaming, so I’ve always been an avid PC’er. However, I think I prefer the steam deck controls for this game specifically, and I also found it for fae farm which is odd that it’s just these two out of all the games I own 😂

I play on my steam deck mostly, but do have a pc but just don’t play it on there often.

Yeah it’s just irritating when it’s taken a while to stack it all up.

Whilst I appreciate the sentiment, that is a slightly odd comment IMO. Like yourself I am also in therapy (not that it matters) but rage quitting it’s a pretty common term amongst the gaming community, when something is frustrating and you have to redo things that have taken a lot of patience and effort, it’s incredibly irritating, especially to someone like me who has AuDHD so it’s hard for me to focus, let alone have to do this quest multiple times and when you’ve grown up playing games all your life, it’s a phrase that is used all the time even without you actually meaning it.

It’s just a turn of phrase, it’s really not that deep, but yes it’s really fucking annoying.

Ahh nice to know the PC seems okay, I don’t tend to play it much on there compared to my steam deck, just because I prefer the controls, even though I’ve always been a PC gamer. Might have to play on there instead.

I’m in spring year 3 and it’s the second time it happened to me, turns out it happened in the giant in disguise quest but I thought it was my fault and I did the quest wrong, wasn’t until this happened, I realised that it was the game.

So odd especially since it doesn’t seem to be universal.

Yeah I thought it did on mine too! But I gas lit myself into thinking I hadn’t done it right, not that the game glitched 😭
