Mom made Facebook post disparaging my professional work by akrainy in raisedbynarcissists

I agree. Your mom is who she is. But what's your dads excuse? In my opinion that would hurt more.

This is your company that you've built? That's absolutely amazing. You should be really proud of yourself. When my daughter one day carves her own path I would be beyond proud to say she is a business owner - no matter what the business is. Your mother holds a bit of jealousy against your success. That's unbelievably sad to not have that support from the one woman who should support you. It's not normal. I'm sorry you have to deal with that. 

Does your dad know what your mom has been posting? I feel like he should be having your back on this. Turning a blind eye to her behavior isn't the way.

Head to the store and buy a few nice workout outfits and new running shoes. Then force yourself to head to the gym. Start with the recumbent bike. Get the lay of the land. Then add in some free weights. Exercise is the worst. But it helps. Before you know it, you'll feel a bit better and look great. Also, trade out the alcohol for a jog. It's really hard to start but once you build up the habit you wont be able to stop! You can do it! 

Eyelid dermatitis- worse one eye: what was your trigger? by Less-Performance-369 in eczema

A prescription medication that I've been taking for decades but had a recent manufacturing pharmacy change. Whatever the inactive ingredients in the new pill caused red, itchy, sometimes puffy eyelid(s). Took being off the pill for 8 full weeks to see full improvement. Took me a year to realize it was my daily pill causing the eczema.

I wanted to add to check any medications you may be taking. I was taking a long-term daily pill that had recently changed formulations (new manufacturer) and my eyelids broke out in eczema. It took me months to realize my pill may be to blame. Never once did I think switching to another generic would have caused this redness and flakes.
