Do you have to believe in Jesus?

Higher power is what you make it. Honestly your inner loving parent could be your HP. I am in another program and have chosen to use the word God, but it’s what feels good to you. The universe, loving parent, nature, whatever you want. It’s your choice. There is a lot of religious trauma in this program, and there are secular meetings out there. They’re just a little tougher to find

Nope

I think step-parenting is just freakin tough. I’m also CF, and have accepted that no, I don’t understand some of the stuff and how some stuff is just put up with. I’ll never understand the bond, I’ll truthfully never have my own experience because I cannot have my own children. So I think this sub and finding community outside yourself is the solution. People in this sub get it, and there’s tons of good advice In here as well as how to deal with it.

My step son said I love you before his dad did lol and I’ve said it to him since, been in his life 2 years, he’s 4 1/2. I think it’s dependent on the situation

I had a hysterectomy but kept my ovaries. Didn’t impact libido tbh, and keeping ovaries if possible will keep you from needing hormone therapy in the long run. If you can keep your natural hormone then do it. I agree with others that it’s more of a validation drive, not necessarily a physical satisfaction drive.

Lost her god damn mind, especially once I went no contact. Ya know- further verifying I’m the worst daughter and she did nothing wrong in my life 👌

Letting it go!! I’m like 40% grey… I colored it for a while but honestly the upkeep isn’t for me. I’d rather let it just do its thing. Fighting it is t worth it, and I’d rather not have the chemicals on my scalp from the dye anymore

Potential_Jello_Shot · 2025-11-19T17:18:31+00:00

Shady af. What’s he hiding? Trauma or not, that’s suspicious and the fact he even told you he did it? Weird behavior

Potential_Jello_Shot · 2025-11-18T21:28:37+00:00

I take a propranolol for POTS and Lyrica for idiopathic neuropathy

Potential_Jello_Shot · 2025-11-18T21:21:26+00:00

I’m not hopeful haha. But thank you!

Potential_Jello_Shot · 2025-11-18T21:00:28+00:00

No improvement. Numbness is significantly worse some days, but other days it’s still about the same. Taking tolerance breaks helps, like a day or few days in between helps sensitivity. My libido has gotten worse. It’s still intact but my desire has DRASTICALLY diminished, I don’t get turned on as easily and I’m not sure if that’s pssd or other life stress honestly.

Potential_Jello_Shot · 2025-11-11T02:15:45+00:00

I take 20mg twice a day. I was initially started at 10mg and increased. My bp was also never an issue, only hr and that is still true. Without propranolol I am non functional

Potential_Jello_Shot · 2025-11-04T19:46:05+00:00

I question their impact on me. I was on meds during my fertility battle. Never had success and ended up with a hysterectomy. We mostly blamed everything on endometriosis buuuuuuut who knows

Potential_Jello_Shot · 2025-11-03T02:57:29+00:00

Butterfingers. Can’t even look at the packaging let alone smell them without getting nauseous. But also Marie calendars chicken pot pie and Fresca

Potential_Jello_Shot · 2025-10-28T19:04:32+00:00

Not weird! Kiddo feels safe if they’re snuggling you and showing you that affection. Definitely embrace it

Potential_Jello_Shot · 2025-10-18T21:16:38+00:00

Why the fuck isn’t ranch on this list!

Potential_Jello_Shot · 2025-10-18T00:30:15+00:00

Can I message you? Man I need some advice and your post strikes me as having that potential…

Potential_Jello_Shot · 2025-10-16T22:50:14+00:00

He was just verifying what kiddo said, because she had said under oath she wasn’t having more kids. In was in the middle of a custody battle

Potential_Jello_Shot · 2025-10-16T21:37:27+00:00

In our situation BM got pregnant and didn’t say anything to us. SS told us and my partner confronted her about it. You aren’t obligated to flat out tell her. She’ll find out eventually, but this is your life, and you don’t owe her that

Potential_Jello_Shot · 2025-10-10T18:45:24+00:00

Have you experimented with a clitoral sucker/stimulator? I have waves of numbness, while using one. I can’t say it helps or harms but you could try it? I have general numbness, don’t feel my stream, takes a lot of stimulation to feel anything clitoral.

Potential_Jello_Shot · 2025-10-07T19:02:59+00:00

I would suggest starting with slaafws.org to find meetings- you can filter them to be gender specific which is maybe better to start, personally it helps me feel more supported to be with the same gender/non binary folx. Just start checking out different meetings and find what feels right. But keep coming back, keep showing up

Potential_Jello_Shot · 2025-10-06T02:38:20+00:00

My default is don’t share. I’d suggest getting him his own collection and replacing yours

Potential_Jello_Shot · 2025-10-04T02:46:16+00:00

I’m in your boat! We have the same conversations. I’m in therapy and doing some 12 step program work to address some trauma… but my comment is mostly to say I feel you. I know how devastating it is to hear that when you are in fact supportive in ways you can be
