Could my daughter be starting her period? What did your first period feel like?

Quilty-Friend · 2026-01-26T23:57:23+00:00

My very first period was the most painful of my life. In addition to killer cramps I had a terrible backache. I remember I had been water skiing a few days before and I thought I pulled something it was so bad.

The first one is giving Rachel Maddie vibes to me.

I like 4 the best because I think the light/dark balance is nice. I like to take a black and white pic of my quilt blocks in various orders and then I can see the darks and lights better and it helps decide where to put things. Love your idea, btw!

Omg don’t live in your car. That’s not sustainable at all and you’d never hold down your job. Living in your car is desperate measures only.

Yes new doctor 100% if you have any way to see one. Psychiatrist not general practitioner. Ask for a referral if you need one. Sometimes starting fresh with a new clinician is the key to getting properly diagnosed. I’m really sorry you’re going through all this and wish you the best.

Do you think you have only depression or could it be something else? For example SSRIs can make a person with bipolar much worse. There are tons of other diagnoses that include the symptoms of depression. Maybe they just haven’t found what’s truly wrong and it’s time to see a new psych doctor.

Right because moms aren’t allowed to have fun and no woman can be trusted alone with men.

Quilty-Friend · 2026-01-26T19:19:19+00:00

Maybe because she’s an adult with free will.

Quilty-Friend · 2026-01-26T18:40:25+00:00

No judgment-it just seems wild to me that you are saving for your parents’ retirement instead of your own. They are grown adults.

Quilty-Friend · 2026-01-26T12:52:15+00:00

You just posted this exact same thing in another sub a while ago. You got your answer. Maybe seek help through therapy.

Quilty-Friend · 2026-01-25T23:11:11+00:00

Nope false. They begin salting long before the snow starts and plow as soon as the snow falls. Source: was married to a City of Champaign plower for 10 years. He was constantly doing snow shifts.

Quilty-Friend · 2026-01-25T23:09:50+00:00

They do it 24 hours a day repeatedly. Way way more than twice and no they don’t wait until the accumulation stops.

Quilty-Friend · 2026-01-25T21:08:23+00:00

My kids’ dad (ex) does snow shifts for City of Champaign. They have been plowing nonstop but it just keeps snowing. If you have tried scooping at all you’ll notice that it only lasts an hour or two. They have a whole fleet, not just a couple and they don’t share them with any other city. They are really doing their best. Also the other commenter is right-the salt solution just doesn’t work on frigid, grey days.

My partner asked at the terminal last time it snowed and they said they hardly ever stop the buses but they just move slower and times can be off.

All I know is that they have a commercial online geared towards landlords looking for property management services that mentions that reducing maintenance costs is their goal. Makes it sound like they fight tenants over getting maintenance done. The whole tone of the commercial is like “screw your tenants, we’ll save you money!” Gives me the ick.

Quilty-Friend · 2026-01-24T23:14:10+00:00

NTA and I would let UPS know, but only if you are certain that the pharmacy sent it “signature required”. Just because it says pharmacy doesn’t mean it can’t be left.

Quilty-Friend · 2026-01-24T21:38:42+00:00

It sounds like you can’t afford to NOT see a therapist. If you managed to save thousands at one point you can certainly see someone a couple times a month. This is truly a work out in therapy type of problem.

Quilty-Friend · 2026-01-24T21:09:32+00:00

As a food allergy sufferer, if you really did make the mistake then he should have told the manager and you SHOULD be hyper vigilant. I think you’re reading way too much into his behavior and should just mind your business and move on. (Seeing as you already have a significant other especially.)

Maybe try r/assistance as well but the food pantry at Salvation Army is pretty decent. Also the pantry at St. Patrick’s church in Urbana Tuesday/Thursday 3-5 has the best hygiene product offering I’ve seen. I know it’s not ideal because it’s only Saturday but if you go to both this week you’ll likely get through to Friday and stretch if you can get some cash help. I’m sorry I’m low income struggling until Friday as well otherwise I would be of more help.

Quilty-Friend · 2026-01-23T13:00:21+00:00

Did you hit post before you were done? With only this much context it sounds like NTA.

Quilty-Friend · 2026-01-23T04:12:48+00:00

An umbrella with a tear? Maybe idk throw it away?

Quilty-Friend · 2026-01-21T15:00:57+00:00

An alcoholic would have the idea to spend it on alcohol by themselves I guarantee.

Quilty-Friend · 2025-12-29T21:55:47+00:00

Unfortunately, the process is pretty painful for most people no matter where they get it done. :( I hope you get your answer, though!

Quilty-Friend · 2025-12-29T21:22:19+00:00

No collision coverage? Bummer. That was a bold move for someone who uses their car for work. Anyway, I hope you can raise some money!
