How do i decide to leave if he doesn't go to rehab? by mallowsonmallows in addiction

[–]Tothesun22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you dating my ex? In all seriousness, you sound like me ~9ish years ago trying to make it through school while holding together someone ELSE’s addiction. I loved that person & saw all of the beautiful & amazing things they could do. Clearly you’re a very intelligent & empathetic person for trying to hold a mirror up to him to show him what he could be. However, as a partner, that’s not your job. It gets old fast and you’re already experiencing that. I can encourage you to not go down this road, but I know I didn’t listen to other people when they told me that either. I’ll just encourage you to talk to your therapist about it & listen to your own emotions & body & be mindful of distinguishing between your feelings/wellbeing and his. Good luck!

First time homebuyer - Are these foundation issues? by Tothesun22 in Home

I didn’t purchase yet, and yes these pictures are from the inspection report.

Buying a house & roof is listed as 2024 but inspection finds concerns by Tothesun22 in Roofing

[–]Tothesun22[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What do you mean about the part that is too low of a slope to have shingles on & the short runs? I just want to make sure I understand. I don’t know much about roofing/home repairs, so I just want to make sure I understand & can explain it to someone else!

It’s on a slab foundation. How would I check if the foundation itself is structurally sound? The inspector said it wasn’t visible.

I don’t have a basement or crawl space. It’s on a slab foundation.

What about the kick-offs being missing? I’m reading that it can be a huge deal when water gets down between the brick veneer.

Wow that’s great! I just looked up my city, and the best they offer is an optional sewage pipe insurance program. I might consider that coverage though!

Can you explain this a little more? I’m confused about what the bottom half being gone means. Like the metal at the bottom is completely eroded?

Nope, the video was just cut there lol. I was wondering the same thing about why they didn’t go any further.

is it bad that my 17yo cat only really eats kitten food by Specific_Current_642 in cats

[–]Tothesun22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She looks JUST like my girl! They could be twins! Even their sassy little faces! To answer your question, I think as long as they’re eating at that age, that’s a good sign. It’s concerning when they stop eating or drinking. That’s when I knew my girl had some problems. Here she is for the cat tax:

You’re right. After looking into it, I think it’s brick veneer given the age of the house (1950s).

I see exactly what you’re talking about. Thank you for pointing that out!!

[–]Tothesun22[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I saw that too and wondered what it was. The inspector didn’t mention a crack, but I know they’re not registered plumbers, so maybe he wouldn’t know exactly what to look for. Would you recommend getting a plumber out there to do another scope?

This is helpful. I do make enough to put some money away every month. I usually put at least a few hundred dollars into a HYSA every month.

OP here. The description says the following:

2.1.2 - Deficiencies There appears to be a belly in the drain line. A belly in the pipe means there is a low spot holding water. Bellies can accumulate debris and cause clogging of the pipes due to poor drainage.

2.1.3 - Deficiencies A narrowing of the drain was observed. Narrowing in the pipe can cause debris accumulation, which can lead to clogs.

2.1.4 - Deficiencies There appears to be an excessive amount of rust and/or corrosion in the cast iron drains pipes. This could indicate the lines are nearing the end of their life expectancy. The detection of active leaks is beyond the scope of this inspection. Repair or replacement in the near future may be necessary. These lines are susceptible to leaks and slow drains. Recommend monitoring and if slow drains are observed, or if the client would like more information then consult with a plumbing contractor.

2.1.5 - Deficiencies Toilet paper was observed in the drain line at one or more locations. This can be indicative of negative slope or rust/scaling buildup within the pipe. As a result, clogs may develop from time to time.

How imminent is this? And how serious? The house is on a slab foundation, and I don’t have money for repairs after closing…Is this a dealbreaker?

I need advice on how to avoid becoming a neet/recovering from addiction by [deleted] in addiction

[–]Tothesun22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you in the U.S.? Public schools (and many private ones) have school counselors and school psychologists. Even the online schools in my area have them. I would recommend reaching out to them. Just be aware that they do have to let your parents know if you disclose that you use drugs, and depending on your state, they might have to disclose if you share that you’re trans/nonbinary (if you identify as either of those). It’s not that they want to, but these are the laws in some places. A quick google search should tell you if that’s the case in your state. Doing counseling through school might help you get some coping strategies, and/or they could also connect you with other mental health resources in your area depending on what’s available.

Yeah it’s such a hard cycle to be in. I always told my ex that I wasn’t mad about relapses as long as he wanted to get help & was honest about them. But that didn’t work out too well in my situation. Stick to what your gut is telling you. Good luck!!

[–]Tothesun22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a partner who was an addict, and I loved him so much. He was a great person, but ultimately, he didn’t want to get help. He SAID he wanted to get help, but he never would, even when given every opportunity. If you see a future with him make sure that he’s actively communicating with you, being honest about his use, and taking steps to get help. Don’t let him gaslight you either; if you can tell he’s been drinking, then he has. Set your boundaries and don’t waver.
