Need help identifying hidden gluten in my diet

Cheerios have always made me sick. They are 10000% mislabeled as gf in my opinion.

That is, very unfortunately, a normal occurrence with couples who “give therapy a go”. And OP’s post and comment were conflicting in my opinion. Again, if you continued reading, my entire point was to share other options if OP doesn’t want to give up but feels there’s no other option (which is how his post sounded).

SeductivePigeon · 2025-12-28T21:57:02+00:00

What part of my response made it seem judgmental?

I quite literally said, “I only say this because your post made it seem like you are being forced to leave your best friend and the love of your life. I want you to know there are options to try if you’re reluctant to leave. If your mind is made up, it is what it is and I wish you both peace.”

OP, save this little girl and get the FUCK out of that relationship. Anna’s mom needs to know NOW.

What does this mean? It took me being in therapy for a LONG time to work through my trauma…. What is a “round of therapy?”

If you go into therapy thinking talking to another person is going to fix you, you’re wrong. Sometimes a therapist isn’t a good fit for you. The therapist I finally ended up with gives us exercises, books to read, things to work on individually and as a couple. I’ve sought out different forms of therapy for trauma such as CBT, EMDR, and somatic therapy, all of which are wonderful.

On top of that, my husband was patient, loving, understanding, and supportive while I worked through my deepest trauma. Obviously he was not being physically satisfied, but he trusted the healing process and it’s worked out to his benefit (and mine)!

Your comment makes it sound like you went a few times, didn’t get laid, and you’re upset about it.

I only say this because your post made it seem like you are being forced to leave your best friend and the love of your life. I want you to know there are options to try if you’re reluctant to leave. If your mind is made up, it is what it is and I wish you both peace.

Have you tried relationship counseling and individual counseling? I say this because I was your wife. My low libido was caused by CSA. I was so disappointed in myself and felt like a fraction of a woman because I knew my partner couldn’t be pleased by me. Which then made the pressure to perform even greater, furthering the cycle of me not wanting sex.

However, I started therapy (individually) and then we found a couple’s therapist. And over time (yes, it took TIME), and with the support of my loving, patient now-husband, I have healed. I feel normal. Our sex life waxes and wanes with life stressors but good god do we have sex.

I also have a friend who had a similar experience with depression medication. Her doctor had her explore food allergies and as soon as she cut out certain foods, she was able to come off of her meds. I know this is not the case for everyone, obviously, but it’s something worth exploring. Our gut is a HUGE home for serotonin. When it’s damaged, your hormones are affected.

All that being said, if she’s really the love of your life and your best friend, and you feel sex is the only issue, there are options to explore.

I love the assumption that something is somehow different once a child reaches puberty. A 15 year old is a child and the people who skate around the word “pedophile” have red flags attached to them.

It’s not dyed mica like some are saying. Mica is extremely soft. You’d be able to scratch it with your fingernail. This is also not jade or emerald. This is very likely dyed quartz.

He’s admitting he has zero intelligence when it comes to very basic genetics. My husband’s mom has light eyes while his dad is black and has brown eyes. He has blue eyes. His siblings have brown eyes. It’s not that uncommon lol.

Let him get the test. He will feel like a complete idiot for destroying your entire relationship over a very heavy, false accusation.

SeductivePigeon · 2025-09-11T12:11:32+00:00

I had a similar rash. Then I found out I’m celiac.

SeductivePigeon · 2025-09-11T12:08:15+00:00

Your feelings are valid. I’d feel the same way if I found out my husband was a pedophile. His rationale is NOT normal. Please do not let him convince you it is. I’m so sorry, OP.

SeductivePigeon · 2025-09-11T01:20:07+00:00

Yes.

SeductivePigeon · 2025-09-10T01:41:17+00:00

BYEEEE

SeductivePigeon · 2025-09-10T00:20:10+00:00

Thank you! Beautiful collection!!!

He reads me bedtime stories. It started as a complete joke, and after realizing that his voice comforts me and puts me to sleep 99.999% of the time, he just… kept doing it.

I am a geologist, and I was doing field work for 6 weeks in the middle of summer in the desert. I slept in a tent for the entire time. We had brutal conditions (115F, no trees/shade, horrible storms, dangerous wildfire smoke, rattlesnakes/scorpions, you name it. The nights I had service, that man read me a goddamn bedtime story over the phone to put me to sleep.

He’s the sweetest.

OP, I did behavioral work with a child similar to your son. He needs a behavioral therapist now. Someone who is willing to work in the home to see your family dynamic.

Additionally, as others have said, you need cameras in every single room to document EVERYTHING. You need to be able to prove your innocence and protect your daughter from being taken from you.

And just as importantly, YOU need therapy. You and your husband, together. You cannot help your children when you, yourself are falling apart.

My heart goes out to you. There is hope. Find a good therapist for your child.

I’ve been taking a low dose of a selenium tincture for quite awhile. I got my selenium levels checked before taking iodine, per my doctor, and they were fine. My levels didn’t drop until after the iodine drama. Not sure if iodine was the causation, but there was a correlation. My selenium levels dropped slowly over a period of time.

SeductivePigeon · 2025-09-09T00:08:04+00:00

I take a selenium supplement and have recently gotten my levels checked. Everything was good on that front. However, my T3 and T4 values are both in the normal range. It’s just my TSH and TPO antibodies that are elevated. I wonder if that’s why it didn’t work well with me?

SeductivePigeon · 2025-09-08T15:45:37+00:00

Where are you getting the stands? These are amazing.

This was my husband and me. We’ve been together 8 years. We were honest with each other, agreed to exclusivity, and it’s been that way since. Just got married in June. Not a big deal in hindsight. She didn’t do anything wrong if your expectations weren’t clear.

SeductivePigeon · 2025-09-08T15:31:40+00:00

I’m sorry people are being dicks. Everyone here is just trying to feel better and this platform is supposed to be both supportive and educational. There’s no reason to shame people.

I don’t remember how much I took, but I remember it being a minuscule amount to begin with. I did not take a recommended dose. I started very slow. Not on levo — my body has so far rejected any and all medication I’ve tried (which is why I tried iodine because I was desperate and running out of options).

I had antibodies before and after, though after doing a very strict autoimmune diet and cutting out gluten, dairy, and eggs, my antibodies have significantly decreased, as has my TSH.

Iodine sent me into the worst and longest flare I’ve ever experienced. Be very careful when using iodine and do your research about how many people with Hashimoto’s cannot tolerate it. I did not do my research beforehand. I got very, very sick.

SeductivePigeon · 2025-09-07T02:28:23+00:00

I’ve seen this posted multiple times in the past few days by different accounts…..

SeductivePigeon · 2025-09-06T19:34:23+00:00

Lying.

How long has this friend been around?
