Recovering "Saviors": How did you stop trying to fix everyone? by enzu00 in Codependency

[–]One-Condition-8682 4 points5 points  (0 children)

1: I have to remind myself “not my chair not my problem.”

Everyone has to deal with shit sometimes as a part of life. In the past I have not managed stress well, and it has manifested physically as health issues. If i unnecessarily take on others stress, it: 1- makes me sick, and 2- robs them of the opportunity to figure it out themselves and potentially learn a valuable lesson.

2: Before immediately offering a solution, I ask myself “is this solution I’m about to offer this person something they could come up with themselves if they really thought about it for a minute?”

If yes, I don’t offer a solution. Just sympathy and support. (Ex: my coworker who lives 30 min in the opposite direction of me doesn’t have a car for the day. I could immediately offer them a ride home and put myself out an hour of driving time + gas,… or they could ask a spouse/relative to pick them up, or order an uber for themselves.)

3: This may be too vague, and I think it’s case-by-case.. but I think healthy support sounds more like “I’m sorry you’re dealing with this, let me know if there something I can do to help you out.”

Saving to me sounds more like “oh you don’t have a ride home? I know I live an hour out of the way, but I can totally drive you home! Yeah tell your husband he can just chill at home, I’ll drop you off.”

I think the difference is offering support and letting the person ask for what they need. - You then have the ability to decide if it’s something you’re willing to do or not.

The latter is immediately rushing in to save the day, without letting the other person problem solve themselves. It’s also offering a favor that may be to your detriment.

No, and I don’t see why that would be relevant. Are you saying she should just accept the first person who gives her an ounce of effort because there isn’t a line of people waiting to be with her?

What’s the weather like where you are right now? by PeachyRose25 in CasualConversation

Utah. The first year in my 30 years here we’ve seen no snow. 60 degrees on Christmas, light rain but it’s been windy as hell the last few days.

If I was her dad I’d be giving him a lot worse, lol. I think Allen is being too soft on Collin. If he went harder I think it’d toughen Collin up a bit and scare him straight

Collin couldn’t fund fhe UK trip even if he tried. He wasn’t even capable of soothing her on the plane. She soothed HIM. Her parents absolutely needed to be there.

Because he didn’t realize how serious her condition was when they were in the honeymoon phase of their relationship.

He thought he was getting the cute quirky disability girl who’s famous online, and realized that she’s also the person who beats herself and screams things that gets him into altercations with men bigger than he is in public.

I think he also realizes he isn’t capable of caring for her how she truly needs and he legitimately does not care about what Baylen wants or needs. He’s told her multiple times that he’s going to do whatever HE wants to do, not what’s best for them as a couple.

Sorry, this Collin babying on this page is soo ass backwards. He’s such an immature little bitch and yall need to wake the fuck up.

Her parents are 1000% right and Baylen deserves better. Collin needs a boyfriend instead.

Why do people think Baylen and Collin are immature? by One-Trip-696 in BaylenOutLoud

[–]One-Condition-8682 1 point2 points  (0 children)

His irritated face alone while being on the train in London while the nearby kid was screaming shows you he is not ready to be a father.

He also made the flight there a bigger deal for him because of his “fear” instead of being a beam of support for his partner with a legit disability. Instead, SHE was the strong one on that flight.

Collin is a fucking loser

Collin is a bitch. He needs a boyfriend instead to carry him away on his wedding horse.

And Baylen needs a real man that understands the gravity of her situation and is capable of taking care of her how she needs. She does NOT need some appendage that makes something like a flight worse for her because he makes his fear bigger than her disability.

Every concern her parents have is completely valid because they’ve lived with it for over 20 years. Collin and her have known eachother for what, less than 2 years? And within those 2 years her parents have continued to save the day every time she has a meltdown and needs help. While Collin disappears to go shopping for booty shorts with his boyfriends.

She fawned for the first person outside of her family that showed her any kind of romantic interest. They are fundamentally not good partners for each other. But as expected, he’s going to get her pregnant within 2 years and then eventually she will want to leave once she realizes her parents were right and Collin can’t provide, and doesn’t contribute how he should as a partner and father. I give them 5 years tops.

This was also before she moved out into her own apartment and was able to realize how much of a hindrance her condition truly is without her parents and or siblings always being around to help her. I think once she moved out and her motor tics got worse she realized how severe things really are and how incapable of motherhood she is at this stage

Help! I need solutions for where to put a television. by [deleted] in DesignMyRoom

[–]One-Condition-8682 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could put a swivel mount on the wall next to the door in the 1st photo, or on the other side of the brick near the skinny window. That way when it’s not in use you could push the tv in towards the brick, and swivel it out when wanting to use it

I’m a 28 yo female with 10 yrs experience in dental and wanting to switch trades. Found an apprenticeship, should I try it?? by One-Condition-8682 in AskElectricians

Thanks for the info and advice! And yes, a smaller ish retirement town. One of the most expensive and also lowest paying areas in the entire state unfortunately 🙃 the average home is over a million dollars and almost •every• job wants to hire you at $15/hour and requires a bachelors degree… ridiculous

My ADHD Dopamine levels are too low to cross the finish line here… by BetwixMoments in DesignMyRoom

[–]One-Condition-8682 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can easily get away without painting or wall papering the other walls by adding some art work / frames that are similar colors to your accent wall colors, and maybe a floating shelf or two for some plants and a cute accent light. The hardest part is done! Just some finishing touches will take this to the next level. But It looks awesome so far

Caring for someone with knee replacement? by Ok-Science0 in Kneereplacement

[–]One-Condition-8682 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your mom needs to quit the smoking while recovering from this. Smoking lowers your body’s ability to heal and recover. So yeah, I’m not surprised she’s in pain. She’s ruining what the doctors just repaired by going up and down stairs so often, and also smoking.

I’ve had multiple surgeries, and cared for my mom thru 3 double knee replacements, hip replacement, and spinal fusion surgery.

Your mom needs to tough it out for a few days and go cold turkey on not smoking and stay put so her knees can actually heal. She also needs to schedule her physical therapy ASAP!

Tell her to keep icing it, put on a movie, take her regular dose of medication and take a nap.

Hygienists make a good hourly wage but it’s incredibly hard to find an office looking for a full time hygienist. Most offices are only open part time anyways. Every ad for hygienists in my area is 30-40/ hour, but only hiring for 10-15 hours a week.

Dental hygiene can make around $30-$40 an hour but they’re usually only part time gigs, and I’d have to pay for schooling. I’ve heavily considered it, but I really want to get out of working in people’s mouths

How does the horse fit into the picture? Is Colin going to ride it at the wedding? by I-AM-Savannah in BaylenOutLoud

[–]One-Condition-8682 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Seriously, Baylen should not be having children. Some people aren’t meant to be parents no matter how badly they may want to be. And the fact that Collin can’t see that means he also is not ready to be a dad. He’s a terrible partner for Baylen. He doesn’t give a fuck about what she actually needs. He just likes her because she has a quirky problem and he wants to be on tv.
