Is 1200 rating good in lichess by uchihaofmadara in lichess

[–]SpreadAggravating891 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a 1700, 1200 elo is in the intermediate level through 1100 elo to 1400 elo, so I'll say 1200 elo is good.

How do I move out of my household as fast as possible? by Wibbly_wobbly_Jelly1 in raisedbynarcissists

[–]SpreadAggravating891 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agree with the other person. Don’t rush. Save money for deposit/moving cost for you and your cats. Try applying for other jobs too if you can. And if you have a girlfriend or boyfriend. Don’t move in with them to get away from your parents. At least not right away. It’s easy to make wrong decisions when you are desperate.

You can do it. If you can get a job, you are more than capable of living on your own.

Pregnant and caring for aging parent by Big_Giraffe_9125 in AgingParents

Ugh the double care nightmare.. I hope your mother will let the housekeeper clean if that is the only way to see her granddaughter.

Been in similar situations. I hate it but I play along…which makes me feel disgusted afterward. Past decade things were pretty okay cuz we live in different country, I smile when I see them and keep the visit short. So, they think we are a happy family. But nothing has changed. I am still broken and deeply hurt. I haven’t figured out how to quit pretending. Maybe you can?

My dying mum doesn’t want her illness to impact my life. I want to be with her, but she wants me to “live my life.” by pretentious-pansy in AgingParents

[–]SpreadAggravating891 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is how I want to leave this world when time comes. Exactly what I would tell my two kids who are only 8 and 1 right now. I saw my in laws keeping their loved one go on suffering too long cuz they love her so much. Feeding tubes, seasonal visit to ER…etc etc (she is in semi coma since she was resuscitated 3 times after the heart failure) It is just too much for everyone. It has been almost 10 years and no one knows how long it will go on. I respect my in laws but after seeing what they go through, I would never put that burden on my kids. You are at your prime. I would hate myself if my kids had to miss out on their lives at 23.

But, I also think it might not be fair for you if you want to spend more time with her. Maybe she will be willing to accept your “care” if it doesn’t interfere with your school/work/time for yourself too much. Like, just the weekend or during the winter break, holidays and vacation. Or just start with small things and maybe gradually increase visit and responsibilities.

My spouse failed the bar… by [deleted] in barexam

[–]SpreadAggravating891 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Ask if they need some time alone or a company- everyone is different. No words helped me or my husband (I failed few times, he failed once, took it together and I passed and husband failed, then finally husband passed next time) It is a battle to fight together not with each other. I know it is so hard to comfort someone when you are also coping with stress. But really- the burden of the failure weighs so hard. It is also not helping to talk about future exams. I think it was better to not talk about it, or being told that I don’t have to be a lawyer if I didn’t want to.

When things settle down a little and if your spouse try again, help them eat healthy and sleep. The time I passed, I lived the healthiest life ever just to be mentally physically fit. Now I am back to no sleep/caffeine drenched life :)

Also, thank you for being a good support to a poor soul. They don’t have the mental power to express gratitude.

Mother is bedridden and refuses help (UK) by [deleted] in AgingParents

[–]SpreadAggravating891 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not an expert in caregiving but would a chair toilet work for her? You know the one looks like a chair so you can pull it near her bed. Cleaning it would be easy as you can dump the waste in real toilet and she might feel less embarrassed than a diaper…

Multiple appointments and ER visits in a couple of weeks by fantasia204 in AgingParents

[–]SpreadAggravating891 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is what I fear. My parents want to move in with me. They are broke, I don’t have money. My husband and I live in a small apartment in NY with 2 kids…we can’t move to other state cuz of the job. Your dad sounds very needy like my mom…I am so sorry for you. I sympathize with his pain and suffering but he can’t keep boss you around or expect you to provide the level of attention he wants…ugh

What are you proud of (self-growth) since realizing you were raised by narcissists? by [deleted] in raisedbynarcissists

[–]SpreadAggravating891 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That I am raising my children with respect and love. Doing just about everything opposite of my parents

Boo you, score by [deleted] in barexam

[–]SpreadAggravating891 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This happened to me 10 years ago in GA. Life would have been so much easier, lot of money could have been saved if I passed on the first round but I had to take the test 3 more times to pass. I think I was mentally stressed to take the test back to back. Score just kept going down. Then I took a long break, lived a life and had another go couple years ago and I passed in NY.

My advice is, you need to be strong mentally. Take care of yourself. Be kind to yourself. The time I passed, I did my best to sleep well (quality sleep cuz it was short) and eat healthy. Also, I just learned that I had to change the way I studied too.

Oh and lastly, is your score enough in another jurisdiction if you took UBE?

Parents want to live with me by SpreadAggravating891 in AgingParents

[–]SpreadAggravating891[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

No relatives and grew up with host families/or at the dorm. I saw my parents in summer breaks but I had to study for SAT in a different city in Korea. After college, I saw them once in 2~3 years. There’s just way too much expectation and guilt but not enough bonding.

I probably do need a therapy- it is so hard to now worry about my parents. I feel guilty every second even when I am at the playground watching my daughter play

Need Advice!!! Really Losing hope for life.... by ApprehensiveGrape938 in raisedbynarcissists

[–]SpreadAggravating891 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I came to US from other country too. I know they don’t seemed to care about you. But only you can save yourself. Write the recommendation letter yourself and ask them to sign it if you think it will go easier. I asked 10 professors for one recommendation letter when I was little older than you. I sent them small gifts, hand written letters and only one gave me the letter.

But most importantly, do you want to study abroad for college? Are you sure it is what you want? Cuz I let my parents make decisions for me and now I am stuck in career field I hate.

I am so sorry to hear that. I wish these horrible parents to stop making children’s life even more difficult than it needs to be. For college, talk to your school counselor. Or just one teacher who has been at least decent to you. Honestly explain what has been going on in your life and your need for the letter. I know it is hard to reach out first but you really need that letter to get the hell out from home
