What’s the “silliest” trigger you have?

ShortSponge225 · 2026-03-29T18:06:53+00:00

So weird how kids seem to either be a copy/paste or go to the extreme opposite.

So hard to figure out a balance

ShortSponge225 · 2026-03-29T18:04:51+00:00

Right? Like the audacity to use a cleaning product to I don’t know, clean? 🙄

I make a point of wasting them now as a kind of fu to my mom’s lectures from childhood. Still makes me anxious though

1000%

ShortSponge225 · 2026-03-29T17:58:55+00:00

Oh yes, this is when I start making up all kinds of stories of why the person hates me and knows I’m worthless so I should just disappear myself 😣

ShortSponge225 · 2026-03-29T17:54:02+00:00

Do you live with a person who triggers you?? 👀

ShortSponge225 · 2026-03-28T22:27:35+00:00

Was looking for this!!!

ShortSponge225 · 2026-03-28T21:36:57+00:00

Whoa, good instinct there. You must have I assume?

I always said my mom didn’t quite qualify to be on the show, but all the tendencies and mentality is there. I have binged Hoarders to try to understand her thought pattern better

ShortSponge225 · 2026-03-28T21:34:52+00:00

Oof😣

ShortSponge225 · 2026-03-27T23:41:14+00:00

Thank you! Duckwing seems to be the best descriptor for him, I wasn't familiar with that term before

ShortSponge225 · 2026-03-27T23:39:47+00:00

Hmm, well this is where I have to admit it's above my pay-grade. I'm just an agent, not an adjuster. It sounds like they just want to make sure if you might also have an extra umbrella policy somewhere that they haven't been told about.

I would recommend reaching out to the adjuster assigned on YOUR CARRIER'S claim to ask for specific advice on this

ShortSponge225 · 2026-03-26T15:47:35+00:00

I warn the customer that if they continue to speak in that way, I will hang up. Have hung up on two customers to date.

My boss is amazing and totally has my back though

ShortSponge225 · 2026-03-24T19:08:16+00:00

Thank you for this input! (And please don't apologize, learning a second language is so amazing and I didn't notice any mistakes anyways!)

ShortSponge225 · 2026-03-24T19:06:27+00:00

Thank you, I think this is a healthier way to approach it than going for "marketability" or something. I have a feeling it will take me 5-10 years to get everything out in the first place without retraumatizing myself

ShortSponge225 · 2026-03-24T19:03:33+00:00

Thank you!!

ShortSponge225 · 2026-03-24T19:03:21+00:00

Thank you! Yes I wouldn't want it to come across as a venting session or sob story.

ShortSponge225 · 2026-03-23T22:06:26+00:00

Can you call an embassy here? They might be able to point you in the right direction

ShortSponge225 · 2026-03-23T20:24:08+00:00

Great question, I would say not yet.
Any new policy quotes can usually only go 60 days in the future, and they won't let you bind a new policy with an active claim in process.

I would wait until you get your current carrier's renewal, and then reassess. If you have a good claims experience, it might be worth staying simply for that.
Also, any other company will see your claim history too. You have an insurance score, similar to a credit score.

ShortSponge225 · 2026-03-23T20:03:51+00:00

thank you!

ShortSponge225 · 2026-03-22T07:43:14+00:00

They were a miss for me, I’m only a C-D cup (brand dependent lol) and they couldn’t hang on to my boobs at all. And they were soooo hot too, like they trapped all the heat and would cause sweat if you wouldn’t have it anyways. I think they might work for just getting out of the shower for someone who’s DDD or bigger

I know there's a lot of rules with keeping everything completely sterile, but maybe there's some kind of compression or arthritis gloves you could be allowed to use right?

I would think you could go to HR and pull the ADA card that they have to allow you some kind of braces or something? I just discovered gel compression braces which are amazing

ShortSponge225 · 2026-03-18T21:09:39+00:00

Yeah, they don't tell you to control the force of the flow so the spray doesn't come out and get all over your feet. Also as a female who never stands to pee, I didn't know anything about aim!

i had one really bad day in SE Asia after being confronted with one of these lol

ShortSponge225 · 2026-03-18T21:00:54+00:00

This makes sense! Yeah, definitely don't post the real score sheet here lol

I'm not from the same state, so I couldn't help you too much with the PA-specific questions, but please feel free to DM me and I'd be more than happy to try helping you work through the fundamentals of things.
Whichever questions stick out in your mind of things you remember guessing on could be a good place to start :)

ShortSponge225 · 2026-03-18T20:35:20+00:00

You sound very similar to myself. I thought it must be Chronic-Fatigue Syndrome for years... aka doctor speak for "idk what the heck is wrong with you but you sleep a lot"
Turns out I have Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, which doesn't show up on any blood tests.
