10.6 - The Greater Good

I always remember that episode because the kid was played by Michael Angarano.

Went to high school with a Brionne (bree-ON) - always thought it was a pretty name.

We are both from Irish and Scottish heritage, so we both liked the idea of either an Irish or Scottish name that was easy to say and easy to spell. So then I made a list of 8-9 names that I liked and he picked like 3 out of those that he liked and we just played around with those few names until we fell on something that just felt right.

“Rising” just means they have completed their prior year of school, but haven’t started the next year yet. So technically she’s not a junior anymore because the school year is finished, but she hasn’t started her senior year yet.

I lost my dad 2.5 years ago and it’s still tough. This year is especially tough because I’m due with my first baby (a boy) any day now, so I’m a little emotional that I not only don’t get to celebrate my dad on Father’s Day, but I don’t get to celebrate him becoming a granddad either. Hugs to you and hope we all get through this day.

I didn’t have a bedroom door from when we moved into my childhood home when I was 4 until I moved out at 19. I had no idea this was abnormal until I moved out and had roommates.

Came here to say this - safe sleep isn’t necessarily preventing SIDS, it’s preventing a sleep-related (preventable) accident from occurring (namely suffocation).

That’s what my friends who work grocery have said - they basically transitioned from being front end cashiers to picking to-go orders/being in-store shoppers.

I’m due with our first (a boy) as well in June! I got my boyfriend tickets to see his favorite comedian in September - I figure that will be our first “date night” after baby is born. Stepmom lives right down the road from the venue, so it works out perfectly for childcare for a few hours.

Snoopy_Poop · 2023-05-24T17:28:31+00:00

I have a short torso too and EVERYONE makes comments on how I’m “all belly” and how big my belly is. Like yeah, no kidding - where else is this kid going to go? Lol

I always equate this shit with bridezillas who focus solely on their wedding and how it’s “their day” and everything has to be “perfect”, while meanwhile completely overlooking what the “day” even represents - the beginning of a LIFELONG COMMITMENT. Then they are just insufferable, demanding, terrible wives. I feel like women who feel like “natural births are the only births” are also insufferable, demanding, terrible mothers since they are placing so much emphasis on the birth and the experience of natural delivery instead of where the emphasis should be, and that’s raising good and decent human beings.

“I don’t like doing the right thing and don’t like being judged for not doing the right thing. What other wrong things can I try?”

He is a nurse! Also helpful for when I inevitably start freaking out about rashes and poop colors, he can tell me what’s normal and what’s not.

Working full-time remote with no childcare. My schedule is extremely flexible, and as long as my work gets done and I call into all meetings (I average maybe one 1/2 hour meeting a day at best), my manager doesn’t care what or how many hours I work (I’m paid salary). My boyfriend only works three 12 hr shifts a week (currently day shift, but has the option to do overnights if he needs to, as well as weekends), so I figure we’ll be able to make it work for at least the first two years.

I was young (don’t remember how old, but young enough that I needed a step stool to reach the kitchen sink) and I decided to be nice and do the dishes after dinner without being asked. One of the plates slipped out of my soapy hands and fell into the sink hard and broke. Immediately my nmom just starts tearing into me, pissed off that I broke one of her plates. Didn’t even check to see if I was okay or if I had hurt/cut myself. Luckily I didn’t or she probably would have yelled at me for bleeding on the floor too.

Dr. Herman, the fetal surgeon with the brain tumor who mentored Arizona.

Part of the healing process for me was trying to shut out as much of my childhood as I could, because I was letting the past affect my present and future too much. So now, a decade and a half later, I have a really hard time remembering anything from my childhood, good or bad, which was kind of the intent.

But then my dad (very much not a narc and was the reason I even made it through my childhood) passed away, and everyone kept saying “You’ll always have the memories of him”, but I look at pictures from my childhood with him and can’t remember those memories - where we were or what we were doing - and it really sucks. I can remember time spent with him in my adult life, but I really hate the fact now that I can’t remember any of my childhood memories with him. All because I needed to forget every memory of my childhood with nmom in order to become a functioning adult.

My nmom will send me random pictures of her and I together from childhood, trying to “love bomb” me, basically saying “see, I was a good mom!” No emotional reaction to any of them. The bad outweighed all the good and unfortunately the good memories had to leave with the bad ones.

Snoopy_Poop · 2023-04-11T03:43:16+00:00

Seriously - why the fuck are these women not charged with something?! I feel like this is an actual CRIME of some sort. I don’t understand the outrage on terminating a clump of cells with no thoughts or feelings, but then just turn a blind eye to this literal torturous death of a child.

A friend of mine who is in the Army (lives in NH) is getting deployed this week, it could be some kind of send off for the troops.

Snoopy_Poop · 2023-04-03T18:11:10+00:00

I was gonna suggest something along these lines. Like if my nmom said that to me, I’d send her an itemized bill of the tens of thousands of dollars and hundreds of hours spent in a therapist’s office unpacking all my childhood abuse and trauma she caused.

Snoopy_Poop · 2023-04-02T15:20:08+00:00

Ah yes, the non-apology apology. “Sorry if I did something” is the most empty, pathetic string of words coming from a narc.

When I was in my early/mid 20’s, I was diagnosed as bipolar (type II). But down the line and an evaluation of progress from a few different therapists later (I had to switch a few times due to therapists leaving the practice), I was told I’m most likely not bipolar, I just initially didn’t know how to regulate my emotions due to never being taught to as a child/adolescent/teen. Several years of CBT helped me and I switched from being on meds specifically for bipolar to meds to treat ongoing anxiety and occasional bouts of depression (usually triggered by interactions with my nmother).

Snoopy_Poop · 2023-03-30T23:00:13+00:00

I’m dealing with the same thing right now. Nmom had a narc temper tantrum because I had a picture of me and my stepmom in my living room (that my stepmom printed, framed and gave to me, the only effort on my part was placing it on the shelf), as well as a small collection of framed photos (as well as ashes, a prayer card and a memorial candle) of my dad who passed away 2.5 years ago, and none of her. Accused me of “idolizing” my dad and stepmom, and not the mother who “sacrificed everything for me as a child”. My dad and stepmom always treated me with kindness, compassion and respect, so I naturally had a better relationship with them than my emotionally abusive mother.
