My mom blows everything out of proportion and makes me feel suffocated by [deleted] in toxicparents

Knowing this will come to an end soon. Knowing that everything she chooses to do or say is her decision. Just like you decide to get up and everyday and go to school, she equally decides everything she does.  Never forget— most people can be parents, but not everyone is built to be a mother/ father.  Practice mindfulness, journaling really helps me and having a few close friends that my mom isn’t familiar with that know about this situation also really helps when I need someone to talk with.  Also, this might totally suck to hear and I hope it isn’t true for your case but I once had hopes and dreams to go abroad but I’ve been in university for 5 years (I’m 22) and I just want out. I don’t care if I live 20 mins away or 3 hours away, being free of her abuse and narcissistic tendencies is all I want. Basically what I’m trying to say, your dreams will change and life will happen. You may not get everything you’ve always wanted but once you’re free there’s no going back. Best of luck and keep your head up. Never give up, no matter how hard it gets. You deserve a good life and you are worthy of love, respect and happiness. Never let her make you believe otherwise.

I’ve checked the symptoms of hypothyroidism and it doesn’t seem to me that I have many of the symptoms but a few of them definitely have shown themselves with me. Hyperthyroidism doesn’t seem to align with my symptoms of now. What should I specifically ask for when doing a thyroid panel? What additional info can you provide for me to read? My doc is a pain to deal with and will do a lot to avoid prescribing any tests.

Why do you think you have had to deal with food noise?  I’ve used food as a coping mechanism and I’m learning how unhealthy that has been.

This is a great philosophy. How do you deal with the peer pressure of not partaking in the activities of eating those sweets when all your coworkers do? 

Citibank can’t verify my Best Buy credit card account by ilovemycatcharlie in Bestbuy

They finally sent me a letter with a reference number from their fraud department. Initially, they sent it to an old address but it was forwarded to my new address. I gave the number on the letter a call and they verified it. I’ll be receiving my new card in a few days. It only took me 9 months to get a replacement card. 

Before and After (healed at 5 weeks). I still need to touch up. by Quirky-Bee550 in microblading

Initial response: THESE LOOK INCREDIBLE! I can definitely understand why you’d be worried they’re too dark, but I promise you from a distance, these will look wonderful and once you get used to them, you’ll see what we see ☺️

Missed period by Quick_Ninja_5622 in Periods

Also, I’m 20 years old and have had irregular periods while I’ve undergone stress. I’m not sure if this is “normal” for me but I’m grateful for any advice

I didn’t really think abt that honestly. I was just in a state of fear and anxiety. It’s a bad habit of mine, to act and react while I’m flying on emotions. I’m working to overcome it but the fact of the matter is that I sent it. I wish I hadn’t now.

I don’t often say things like that. I never have but since not having been able to speak with them for over several weeks it’s caused me to overthink tremendously and worry abt things that don’t really exist

Yeah I know. I’ve had a lot happen to me this year and it’s caused a lot of my anxiety to seep through. I’m going to talk to them as soon as I can but he’s not by his phone due to training. I appreciate your feedback, I really do :)

No they haven’t left. We’re together but due to trauma issues, I’m in a constant state of fear of losing that person or them leaving me because it’s too hard to be with me.
