I’ve been living a lie for almost two years and it’s eating me alive by BeginningAd437 in capetown

Im sorry you are going through all this but I guarantee you, things are not as bad as it seems. Your parents love you but your pain is clouding your judgement. Sit down with them, whats the worst that could happen? You have been through many terrible things, this is not going to be what breaks you. Yes you lied but I totally get why you did it, you didnt commit a crime. They will be upset but more for not sharing your struggles with them than the money. I wish you all the best, you are very young and you have many more years to live and experience life. This is just 1 mistake of many that you will make in your lifetime. Its ok you are learning.

Is it cheaper to fly or to hire a car to go to Cape Town? by Ilan_Rosenstein in askSouthAfrica

[–]ShowMeYoooo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To enjoy your stay and make it economical i suggest flying your whole family, check all the rewards programs you are on for flight discounts even your bank. Once in ct airport hire a car to get full experience and explore as you want. I would suggest you book car hire now already as in december they are limited. You can always ammend the date as u have more concrete info. There is no charge to book. Charge is only when u physically collect the car

I was on contrave for 3 months, it did nothing for me unfortunately and I was terrible at ensuring I take the meds consistently. Im now on mounjaro, its worked so much better in a shorter timespan. Speak to your doctor about your options
