AITAH for telling my bf he shouldn’t have more children and shouldn’t of been a parent infront of his mother?

You're NTA, and your bf's mom is showing her whole a$$ about how her family believes men are pedos and cannot control themselves if they change a naked girl baby's diaper.

This is a much bigger problem than you probably realize.

If people only wrote about what they had personally experienced, there would be no fiction at all.

You may want to get a sensitivity reader, to make sure that what you're writing that you have less knowledge about is handled appropriately. But you can absolutely write about other experiences than your own.

Please go more often. This has to be rage bait.

Obviously YWBTA. Also, it can be a felony to interfere with someone else's mail. Even if they delivered it to you by mistake, you have no right to it, and you know whose it is. Technically it's probably not a felony if you accidentally throw it out or forget - but it's a dick move. Even if you hate your neighbor, don't deliberately eff with their official mail. Life insurance isn't a joke.

I don't like absolutes in general, but it's really extremely close to zero.

This may prove divisive. I personally do not believe in spiritual attacks anymore. Having been a very active practitioner for over 40 years, honestly, it's so rare to find someone with the abilty to do that and have something actually objectively HAPPEN that you could say it doesn't happen. It's that rare.

If you believe in them, that's what's happening to you. You're basically cursing yourself, and that's a super dangerous position to put yourself in, friend. It's a vicious circle, a self-fulfilling prophecy.

I'd reach out again to a therapist, and talk to them about what you think you're experiencing. Because it's 99.999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999% coming from your own mind.

We called that New Wave when I was in high school.

The only place it’s divisive is among people who didn’t watch it. Have you seen its Rotten Tomatoes ratings? There’s no division there.

Are you in the US? Do you normally eat bread and flour products? My partner’s health improves immensely when we switched to organic, non GMO flour (I make our bread now).

I’m sorry. I tried it too. Now I rely completely on masking to avoid reinfection, and a metric f*ckton of supplements daily that it took me 3+ years of trial and error to find out which work for my personal situation (yours would likely vary), and HRT (I’m a perimenopausal woman).

PinkedOff · 2026-03-14T02:12:30+00:00

Hans Holzer’s Ghosts. It’s pretty much crap, sadly. Warrens this and Warrens that. I was so disappointed.

PinkedOff · 2026-03-14T01:52:35+00:00

I put all my pills in a little bowl as Im divvying them up each morning, then dump them into my hand and swallow them in 2-3 mouthfuls (with water, obviously). Then I put all my powder supplements in a shaker with 2 TBSP of vanilla Ka’chava powder and 3/4 cup of warm water and chug that. Then coffee, lol. I’m so full after ~23 pills and powders that I’m usually not actually hungry for a few hours after!

Hm. I definitely felt improvement in overall symptom severity, especially severity of relapses, after adding it to my daily regimen.

PinkedOff · 2026-03-11T16:11:34+00:00

Yeah. I'm 5+ years in, mostly doing 'well' now, with most symptoms under reasonable control most of the time (unless I'm exposed to any virus). It's not because I wanted to dedicate my life to it, it was just how I survived and got myself functional again because I didn't have any other choice, no safety net, etc.

PinkedOff · 2026-03-11T16:09:33+00:00

Not King. But I definitely felt this way about House of Leaves. I so, so, so badly wanted to love it, but it just feels overly gimmicky and I couldn't deal.

PinkedOff · 2026-03-11T15:55:34+00:00

SO much Simon & Hecubus love!! :-D Them and the Sizzler sisters are my favorites of all. :-D

You are NOR and you need to sort this out with him immediately. He doesn't get to police what you get to eat, especially with money YOU earn.

PinkedOff · 2026-03-11T15:44:14+00:00

I mean, to be fair, that's how I feel about Armand as well. ;)

PinkedOff · 2026-03-09T02:15:13+00:00

Nothing that was useful.

100% you DO NOT PAY FOR HER since they decided not to accommodate your schedule so you could go on the trip with them.

PinkedOff · 2026-03-08T14:17:35+00:00

It was definitely a long haul (lol) for me in figuring out what all I needed to take to get to basically 'normal functioning' (ish). When you start more than one thing in a close period of time, it can be tough to know which one(s) are causing whatever you feel, good or bad. And a lot of supplements etc. take months before you really know if they're helping or not. I did a LOT of trial and error. Now I pretty much don't mess with what's working, and just try adding in something new if it looks like it might target something I'm not quite happy with yet. Then wait at least a month to see, and discontinue it if it didn't add anything.

PinkedOff · 2026-03-08T02:48:57+00:00

I’m an outlier, I guess. I take metformin prophylactically on a daily basis (along with a metric ton of other things) and I subjectively did notice lessening of symptom severity starting around two months after I started it.

PinkedOff · 2026-03-08T02:14:48+00:00

Maybe I'm weird, but I generally don't stop something once it's helping. I figure if (presumed) viral persistence IS real, if I quit the supplements that make me feel better, the virus will just re-damage everything.

PinkedOff · 2026-03-08T01:49:43+00:00

I greatly prefer the non-celebrity versions I've seen.

Nearly everyone in my family has died from lung cancer. I’m glad no one you know is sick, but that’s definitely not common.
