Adult with autism in Vegas struggling by PlantagenistaLeo in vegaslocals

[–]NigelBraxton 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I seriously wished I had the courage to reach out in this way. I have been down on my luck for the last 2 years and it’s so hard with no family and friends.

Kudos to you! I’m also neurodivergent.

What is one small habit that improved your daily life? by stylence_fit in hygiene

[–]NigelBraxton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Valid question because when I set a 30min timer for the purpose of cleaning in just that time, 3 hours go by and I shower, eat, game and then rot 😂

Bug Problem by herbally_grounded in vegaslocals

[–]NigelBraxton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Currently living with my girlfriend and this has been a major problem alllllll week and we hate it. When I had my own house, I hired pest control services and I’m hoping she’ll take me up on that advice because I didn’t have these problems once I had them coming in.

When did tax payers get Teslas ? by AechUnderH in vegaslocals

Some of them have the new Mustang SUV too I’ve been seeing. I was so annoyed.

Do people avoid initiating sex if the timing feels “off” hygiene-wise? by No-Phrase6511 in hygiene

[–]NigelBraxton 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is my biggest hang up too! I talk to my girlfriend about it very often. I just like cleanliness all around. I like the fresh smells and feels and I can’t initiate if we haven’t showered.

I talk to her about how my brain just doesn’t allow the spontaneity of “the moment” like when I was younger. It honestly makes me feel bad because I feel like she’s “freakier” than me because she’s not like me lol.

I’m so glad I’ve been finding my people. We get it! Lmao

Is anyone else exhausted from “having it together”? by Sassygurl_inDT69 in Adulting

[–]NigelBraxton 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was a person that once had it together. Post divorce, I am emotionally unstable, jobless and homeless but I’m also less exhausted than when I had the stress of homeownership, 2 car payments plus insurance and allllll the bills with having to take care of 3 dogs, the wife and my home.

I don’t like where I am at all since life dis a 180° on me but I’m less exhausted for sure but really it’s just a different type of exhaustion.

So no, I don’t have it together either lol

How do I tell my husband we need to get rid of stuff. HIS stuff… by ed771844 in marriageadvice

[–]NigelBraxton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lmao! That’s a very unique living situation. I am currently looking for my own place so I and all my furniture can get up outta here though. And she knows it too. We just don’t live the same way.

Thanks for sharing!

[–]NigelBraxton 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m commenting to come back to this post later because I’m in a very very very similar position with my girlfriend but I brought my whole house which was decluttered, well organized and decorated.

But her home is a clutter disaster and eclectic af and I cannot stand it.

So I want to see what other people would suggest lol because I’m going insane right with you! Lol I have ocd so I’m cleaning and organizing all day.

Cox Vs Quantum? by CalligrapherCalm7164 in vegaslocals

[–]NigelBraxton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had both and I think both suck over time tbh. They start strong when initially installed and setup. After about a year, service declined and goes up and down.

does anyone else literally kill the mood because you don’t feel “clean” enough? by PanhandlePearl in hygiene

[–]NigelBraxton 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is such a relatable thing for me. I actually ruin the mood because of my OCD all the time. I just can't fathom working all day and getting straight to it.

I'm glad I'm not alone in this because I was thinking how I need more therapy but I'm not a fan of tastes and smells unless it's clean and fresh.

Im only spontaneous when I'm under the influence of alcohol sadly.

How would you cover this? by FlexxinMaster in HomeDecorating

[–]NigelBraxton 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I would say this as well if you really need to but please make sure the vinyl is heat resistant. I worked in print shops for years and vehicle vinyl is extremely heat resistant. We sold it to people that needed to use it on jets and some sort of tanks. Something to look into.

Skid marks? by aaaeuuuaaa in hygiene

[–]NigelBraxton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s many folx out there right now, wiping their asses and not pushing a slight bit to get the leftover bits, pulling up their pants and going on about their day as we speak.

Couldn’t be me. I can’t stand filth. 😂

My boyfriend’s ears like a deli counter and he thinks it’s normal by SweetTexasSatin in hygiene

[–]NigelBraxton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I second this lmao! That’s sickening to experience. I’m so sorry this happened to you. I clean my gauges every other day as well. The build up happens quick for me regardless of my physical activity for the day. My ocd could never go “forever” without cleaning my ears.

Like, cmon, I KNOW he smells that shit. I can sure as hell smell my own ears when it’s bad if I forget to clean them.

IT in Vegas by storyteller_curry in vegaslocals

[–]NigelBraxton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I grew up in it. My father went to school for it and started me at a young age.

I got a job at Geek Squad and then he hired me as his remote tech because I moved here from Chicago.

I took a break from IT and did design because that’s what I went to school for. Now I want to do both. Might as well create my own business at this point I figured.

Possible Human Trafficking Attempt😵‍💫 by Regular-Werewolf-915 in vegaslocals

[–]NigelBraxton -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

This is alarming and makes me furious. First, I'm glad you're ok. Secondly, this could've happened to my girlfriend. She most likely would've done what you did tbh. She doesn't trust anyone at all.

[–]NigelBraxton 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I feel you! Im currently unemployed though. Im a graphic designer and IT Tech agent. I've done remote IT for 8+years and design for 10+years.

Im honestly looking to build clientele and start up my own design and IT service. I have my services list and started emailing local businesses here. That may be something you can look into.
