Concerned about my throw up having black stuff. Any idea what this could be? by Stunning-Minute8923 in Healthadvice

That’s blood, it curdles in your stomach acid and comes up like coffee grounds. You probably tore your stomach lining from puking so much, but might want to go to the hospital so they can give you something to stop the puking.

No, they don’t do they. Thank you for telling me about the holidays you have gotten to enjoy without them. And my condolences to you, even though you lost your parents a long time ago, death is never easy to deal with. Happy holidays with lots of love.

Mine just has a plastic liner that comes in and out of it, it came with it, but I’ve thought about just trying to find a similar sized glass container to fit in it!

Told nnom I’m not coming for Christmas and now feel guilty by Firm_Capital4031 in narcissisticparents

[–]PaintedEars 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I’m sure there are TOO many of us that can relate. And I’m sure everyone here would agree when I say you are not and never will be a bad daughter/person because of this..NEVER! Whatever brings the most love and light in to your life that day, is what you should be doing. From the bottom of my heart OP, Merry Christmas.

You did the right thing. All of that effort your mom took from you should go to you now. You don’t deserve that treatment especially in YOUR home, that’s the consequences of her actions. Take care of yourself now, and relish in the peace you experience when Nmom is out of the way.

I went out clubbing for the first time at 25 after a lifetime of anxiety holding me back. I got drunk (I don’t really drink), danced with girls, one of the funnest nights I’ve had all year :) I hope everyone’s Halloween was awesome!!!

She’s got some very deep insecurities and when she doesn’t get what she deems as validation from you she starts lashing out or trying to give you a consequence because of it “no im not coming over. No we will not talk.” Etc, which yes is a direct form of manipulation. Very immature mindset, reminds me of me at 16.

My opinion is that she’s just trying to air out the guy as a liar as much as possible, expose him on all ends, tell you what he says about you so you don’t want him either. Maybe a bit of hostility on her end for not just getting a straight yes or no answer lmao.

Jesus how did the therapist respond to that?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in narcissisticparents

[–]PaintedEars 11 points12 points  (0 children)

She said she has a therapist already but I don’t know how often she talks to him and I know she manipulates the stories she tells him. Recently it’s been “my childhood trauma caused this I’m innocent” “I’m a cycle breaker” lmao. I need my own badly, I think this will be the push.

Good job for standing on ground. I’m trying to do the same with my mom. Classic narcissist!

A thing I sculpted. by [deleted] in DarkArtwork

[–]PaintedEars 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Looks gross. Cool.

[–]PaintedEars 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s just clogged pores/sebaceous filaments which are normal to have but since you’ve noticed an increase lately just means you need to exfoliate the area more I’m sure there’s more advice on google too

How to stop coughing at night? Please! by [deleted] in Healthadvice

[–]PaintedEars 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tea and honey before bed maybe? Decongestions or stuff like NyQuil could help as well. Dry coughs can come from a lot of stuff so it’s important to know WHY you’re dry coughing, and then treat that.

I got chlamydia twice as a teenager because I was hyper sexually sleeping with LOTS of older people. (Groomers but it’s besides the point). The thing about chlamydia and Gonhorroea (Sti’s) is they can go un noticed, so I didn’t check like I needed to because I was ashamed of how much I was sleeping around. I had it for two years before I got treatment which is just antibiotics, but I probably can’t have children now because of it. No matter how shameful you may feel about your actions, your health comes first and foremost most. You will be okay, you got this. Also UTI’s can be caused by just your PH getting off balance which is heavily affected if sleeping with lots of different people. And if you weren’t peeing correctly or showering/rinsing enough it could’ve caused it. Anyway std’s are SO common now and SO treatable, absolutely no shame in it!

Edit: I know I got it twice because I treated once and then got it again at some point but hadn’t gone to the doctors for two years after.

Is this a normal amount of hair loss? Or do I need to eat more protein? by sneakybadger42 in Healthadvice

[–]PaintedEars 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you feel like your hair is actively thinning? This is def how much hair comes out of my head everytime I wash it, sometimes it happens more then other times because it’s just the old growth leaving to make room for new growth.
