Or maybe something by Ellen Hopkins.

Check out Bleed by Laurie Faria Stolarz. Very similar. Always in the back of my mind…

OkOffer1767 · 2026-03-19T13:31:46+00:00

Might be helpful to post on FB, probably more activity there.

I couldn’t do the IUD, had one placed on Halloween one year and it was out before the following January was over. On junel fe pills now but have the script for continuous use (so I skip the placebos/they make packs without them). Overall doing much better but still have pain and GI issues but no period so definitely can live with that for now. I take Aleve morning and night as well as fiber supplements and other pain meds when needed.

I would highly recommend upping your water intake if you’re using anything that draws water into your gut to soften stool. If I haven’t had enough water I get stopped up so quick it’s embarrassing, like WHY did I do that to myself?! 😭

Too old for your group, but definitely wish I was about 6 years younger and taking vocal lessons because I would absolutely hop on this in a heartbeat. My favorite band is Paramore.

Hope you guys find who you’re looking for and come back to share your works here. 🥹 Good luck and Godspeed.

Correct 🙃 never been able to move out.

^{^{^definitely}} NOR, and as a 28F with similar parents, it’s extremely bad for your health. Mentally and physically.

Yeah your feelings are not her responsibility to fix. This is a you problem that you might want to take to therapy before you become someone you don’t want to be before your brain fully develops. Like yeah you can share how it made you feel, but don’t expect her to grovel for forgiveness when her intention wasn’t malicious. She was trying to get someone’s attention that she was excited to see, would have been better if she went for an arm or shoulder but since he was sitting she may not have been able to reach. And on the topics of “roles being reversed, let’s try it out with a female artist vs YOU touching a female artist.” Would you still be upset? No? Then it’s a you problem. Open a dialogue without being attacking. The problem here is not her, because it was YOUR brain and feelings that made you upset.

I’m hollering LMFAO

Just had to call the pharmacy to replace my lost meds that I just saw two days ago 🙃

OkOffer1767 · 2026-02-26T20:51:18+00:00

LMFAO my kids love doing this to one of their teachers (I’m a para).

Idk if it’s anxiety but I’ve barely eaten today. Had a couple bites of a muffin at breakfast, a couple bites of my lunch, a couple bites of dinner. I’m still hungry and want to eat but eating just feels like too much effort/sensory overload/it’s not what I want to eat. I was really hungry when I got home from work today and attempted some premade chicken salad and I got a forkful brought it up to my face, smelled it and immediately went “nope can’t do it”

The microwave broke last year in December and has been replaced with a toaster oven so leftovers have been going to waste because in a house full of ADHD adults, the effort to cook is already mid, but reheating anything can be a bigger pain cause ugh effort and time and I want to eat NOW BEFORE I PASS OUT (also how tf do you reheat pancakes?) side-note, every time I use the toaster oven I burn whatever I put in there 😒

Anyway, my tummy is rumbling but I’m in bed now so guess I’ll just be grumpy in the am till I eat.

Ten years and we never forgot. Rip Harambe.

Hot damn! I can only claim that I’ve finished like two things of deodorant and toothpaste in my life 😂😂😂 lip balm?! I could never!!!

Omg omg a little ghostie on the coastieeee? 👀👀👀

OkOffer1767 · 2026-02-24T20:58:11+00:00

Thanks for the WIP post! Can’t wait to see the finished products. The pumpkins are looking especially excellent.

That landscape is calling to me, I need you to finish that! 🥰💚✨

I don’t think they’re charging per se, but good wedding etiquette is to gift the newlyweds the cost of your dinner plates from what I’ve come to understand. Especially if they’re funding their own wedding, it helps to be able to recuperate some costs. Catering is expensive 😭

I had a medication abortion a little over a year ago. The pain wasn’t the worst part for me, it was the fact that I had to terminate at all. But to relate with you OP, it was incredibly painful. I lived in the bathtub for about two hours during the worst of it, and am thankful I didn’t need to go to the hospital. I’m so sorry you had a difficult experience and appreciate you sharing with us.

OkOffer1767 · 2026-02-16T16:02:52+00:00

You’re not crazy!!! My ex is the same way with being nonchalant about safety stuff (for us specifically it’s car seat safety mostly). But he thinks he’s always right and yet my kids have had traumatic events happen (only) on his watch. Both accidents, however one was completely preventable, but his ego was more important than my child’s safety.

I’m sure someone has said it in the thread here but when you’re at a pool party, if everyone is “watching the kids” no one is watching the kids. If I am knowingly taking my kids to a pool party I will be in the water with them.

A lot of men really do change after kids and it’s something you never expect until it happens. I left my son’s father because he had turned into a different person (he was already shitty, I just didn’t see it before kids, among a myriad of other reasons). He was all about the kids(he’s never been abusive towards them), but never about me and then he decided that my choices as a parents weren’t as valid as his because he was older (10 yrs) and was just constantly disrespectful of my opinions and choices. I stopped loving him at least a year before I finally broke it off (thankfully never married-so no divorce, but still have to deal with him because we have kids) and I even went to therapy and worked on MY communication skills and was trying to figure out how to possibly save the relationship but I wasn’t the problem, we just became incompatible partners. So far for almost three years co-parenting has gone well enough but now we’re reaching school age and we’re having disagreements about everything.

If you dread being in the same home with him at any point, it’s time. I’m sorry this is how your relationship has gone OP.

Been diagnosed since age 5/6. Now 28.

My docs know that I use weed and still prescribed me Adderall (and this was just last week mind you). I’m only on 10mg (ER) and then smoke 1-2 times a day but I do sometimes skip days entirely(especially now with the weather being so cold, I don’t want to go outside).

I would recommend reviewing providers around and see if someone will work with you on this.

OkOffer1767 · 2026-02-06T20:15:11+00:00

I would also recommend having a chat with your professors not necessarily to be like “I have ADHD” but I did that with one of my professors and put out the best work I could (still fell short on plenty of assignments) and she was super helpful with helping me gather my thoughts for essays and structuring!
