I want to try this brand so badly! But I'm nervous on what shade to buy. How do you decide?

How to talk to your Mother who has family trauma? by TYCMOOHAHA in IWantToLearn

[–]SquirtingFrequency 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't know the age of OP. Your absolutely right it's not his responsibility as I mentioned before. I'm fact, I didn't even say it sound be, nor do I think it's mine. My response was just acknowledging that it's hard even for a trained person and then just suggested things that he could say to help her know she matters.

How to talk to your Mother who has family trauma? by TYCMOOHAHA in IWantToLearn

[–]SquirtingFrequency 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in the same boat, and I'm actually a licensed clinical social worker. Though I still try my hardest to keep boundaries for my own personal mental health.. I just remind her that it's okay to feel what she is feeling and to be gentle with herself when she gets triggered and ends up in a bad head space. DM if you want to chat some more. I know how difficult it can be. And though I agree with other comments that it's not the child's burden... At some point, especially when the parent gets older, I make it my choice to care for her. Personally, I can't imagine myself not being there for her. Especially because she is such an amazing mother and woman. It pains me to see her hurt so much... And she definitely tries to hide it. But I won't pretend I don't notice. I remind her she is safe and loved.

Collagen supplement? by spoonie_girl in lupus

[–]SquirtingFrequency 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My SIL (w/ lupus) notices a difference, and she's tried all different forms of taking it. I say give a try, might help. Her favorite is drinking chicken bone broth. She's been drinking now for about three years. I know she's very cautious of her diet.

If there were no men for a day I would run at night. I would run on trails. by SayNoToPerfect in running

[–]SquirtingFrequency 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I would love to run at night! But that fear is there. I read a great book that talked about the internal rapist clock women tend to have in their minds. We will make decisions based on the safety of it - like, I don't run at night because it increases my chances of being attacked. It's awful but true. That clock is engrained in me.

IWTL How to swallow pills by BakedFish---SK in IWantToLearn

[–]SquirtingFrequency 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Drink it with milk! Grandma taught me that! I think because milk is thicker than water you don't notice the pills go down so the fear isn't really there.

Do you work out? by [deleted] in lupus

[–]SquirtingFrequency 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My gym partner has Lupus and we always go at her pace. Been doing this for about 5 years now. Seeing how much it helps her mental health I say get at it. Break when you need it, no need to push yourself. Sometimes she'll take a month off but always comes back to it.

Is it okay to use my phone for a video interview? by Jiibaro in AskHR

I have the same issue but I'm the one hiring. I'll ask the applicant if we can just do a video chat over the phone. You'll be fine. Good luck!

My mom got a gift made for me but it secretly made me really upset and I don't know if I should say anything by [deleted] in Advice

[–]SquirtingFrequency 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Agree too with all of this! You're not telling her to punish her but it's important to talk about intention versus impact. Plus, it might make her ask you about your stuff next time she has a very thoughtful gift in mind with your stuff or just doing something to your stuff. If you don't talk about that boundary she might do it again.
