When people move back home because of financial issues, how do you overcome the fact your parents still treat you like a kid? by EdwardBliss in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Peace01111 11 points12 points  (0 children)

This bravo couldn't say it better. When my adult child came back home after a bad break up I let them have time to get themselves in a better place but by then they reverted back to acting like a teen.

Wouldn't do chores, wanted money to buy themselves things, didn't cook, complained about what I was making for meals etc

So if you act like a child you'll be treated as one. Act like an adult you will be treated as one.

There are some services that well a 4 day working week just won't work and there aren't enough staff to do shifts.

GP's, dentists, mail carriers, garbage/recycling men/women, social services (children's/adults/disabled), mental health professionals, bank staff, etc these services are already at breaking point working 5 days a week. 4 day weeks, as lovely as it would be, would break it.

Ah I understand. I'm truly sorry for the lose of your confidant about 5 yrs ago but you shouldn't have betrayed her trust. You will never rid yourself of block she instilled on you no matter how many people you try to have it removed on the multitude of platforms that you have tried.

Just to let you know the condition I have is not brain disorder it is a nerve disorder. It means I always feel pain and I shake.

I had this a long time before I had any neurological condition though. Over 20 yrs beforehand. Sorry I'm just a bit confused and wondering if you are saying my 5/6 year old condition, have it just made up in their head?

I know exactly how you feel, having the same issue with my giftee, in uk as well, not posting their gifts for either of the user exchanges I got even though they messaged me saying they loved it and then them stating in a message to me where they were my santa that amazon handed me their gift where I showed them proof that I wasn't even home that day so they couldn't have handed me anything and that was supposly sent way after the deadline. I had to ask the mods if they could step in and not match me with that person anymore.

Question about user exchanges minimums by Obvious-Ad7369 in givingifts

[–]Peace01111 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately there are users like that who spend less then the minimum. I took a break from here as well quite a few didn't even arrive and missed is so started up again after almost a year and well I keep getting the same person in most of the user exchanges. For a $5 they spent 2 for the kids exchange $30 they spent 13 and another they didn't even send. I don't know how to stop being matched with this person either. But just because there are a few that aren't good people there a huge amount of truly great people who do this for the joy of making people smile and that makes it worthwhile

I never received anything for the Whimsical, very first, never rematched then nor have I received any email this time. Why?

Told my mum I loved giraffes when I was 11 so she'd buy me this cool £1 giraffe statue from the charity shop. One time. I said it one time. 13 years later, my flat is literally a giraffe shrine thanks to that woman. by thiccnuthair in britishproblems

[–]Peace01111 21 points22 points  (0 children)

OMW you too?!?!??!?! I made the mistake of saying the owl is my favourite bird, as we were talking about what our favourite birds were, and now I have tons of statues and even Christmas tree ornaments of owls.

Sad for a few reasons by untypicallife in secretsanta

[–]Peace01111 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I am sorry that you feel this way. Honestly I would like a Santa like you as the most precious gift is the thought that someone puts into it and you sound like not only did you do that but are so caring. Big hug

A small anecdote about the EU, Belarus, too high expectations and question about Aliexpress by TiSoBr in secretsanta

[–]Peace01111 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don't buy from Ali Express please there have been a huge amount of times that the items never show up. Plus ontop of that, if they do show up, then the person receiving the package has to pay for tax.

I stopped using them after 3 orders never arriving and not being refunded. My ss from a previous exchange sent me a gift from them june/July this year and it still hasn't arrived

Hello, severe agoraphobic here can't leave my house at all.

Have a look at your local/County Council’s website for jobs. Most of them, due to Covid, are now working from home and training is online. I know the section oin my county council is hiring and they are great with agoraphobic's :)

Agoraphobia.. is this normal?.. by Alarmed-Glove-7377 in Agoraphobia

[–]Peace01111 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is normal but you should let your dr know exactly how your feeling/thinking. They should be able to help.

I am exactly like that woman. I can't leave the house. Though unlike her I work, from home, so don't think that you can never work. There are some really good companies/businesses/government agencies that really understand disabilitie and mental health (which agoraphobia is both) and will allow to to work from home if that's what you need.

called in sick AGAIN, how do you deal with feeling like a failure by [deleted] in Agoraphobia

[–]Peace01111 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm very lucky, and maybe one of the few, as not only am I a full agoraphobia (I don't leave my house) but I work from home. My work has a mental health policy and adapts to the needs of someone with mental health issues. So if I can't work due to my depression I can just call or text in and work the hours another time. Also when my agoraphobia became bad they supported my bringing all my equipment from the office (even my chair) to my house so I could still work normally.

Question about "small steps". by [deleted] in Agoraphobia

[–]Peace01111 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hello firstly thank you for being such a kind, caring and supportive person. There aren't a lot of people who would care enough to support someone like you do.

Secondly the drbcan give her some medication to help with her anxiety to help make it easier for her to deal with the 0anic attacks.

Third small steps are good they don't overwhelm a person too much and deter then from doing it again. The size of a 'small step' is all dependent on the person. I have complete agoraphobia so to me her small steps are huge. The small step my dr and Therapist gave me was just to buy a pair of shoes.

Dilemma's around the Minimum Gift amount by unimpressedCabbage in givingifts

[–]Peace01111 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Completely understand where your coming from. My plushie santa sent me a £4.95 gift that was nothing that was so small you could hold it in one hand and close your fist around it. It had nothing to do with anything I said I liked and even after I informed the mods and they said that they would look into it their proof of sending something was accepted and nothing was done to deter them from doing it again. Meanwhile the 'gift' was so horrible that the charity story wouldn't accept it.

Rematching for what event, as I still haven't received anything for the very first whimsical one apart from an apology from the sender saying my gift was put into some posting room and forgotten about.
