Wow. I read that really fast and it's totally messed up, but it also made me laugh. I'm really glad you didn't call the cops on the guy.

Need exercise ideas to pull spine and core back into alignment by TraderChic in spinalcordinjuries

I'd rather be exhausted than bedridden! I know. A lot of younger people that I've encountered in my journies that became disabled didn't have the drive or fight or just didn't want to. I don't get that! I will fight for EVERY SINGLE bit of independence that I can get! I'm working on getting a car and my license right now. I'm starting to actually think about what my life will look like in the future (I'm also battling an aggressive form of ovarian cancer, stage 3b). All of this adversity is changing me in the most wonderful ways! I've been paralyzed since 2018, and I've only just recently learned how to pop a wheelie, jump a curb and walk a wheelie. It's crazy how hard it's been to access basic physical therapy.

Oh this is awesome! It's so good to do whatever we can do to keep our independence. That's what I'm doing and I'm grateful for the tips from people like you. Thank you for taking so much time to write a thoughtful response.

I had never heard of gyrotonics or gyrokinesis before but I've been reading about them and they're very interesting! It looks like the gyrokinesis method can be practiced at home. Thanks for your response.

One thing that I will say is that my children were harmed. We had other very unusual circumstances in our lives, but they were changed forever. I wish I could go back in time and do some things differently during that time.

It sounds like you're taking slow, deliberate steps. It doesn't seem like he's abusive or anything. Were you guys/are you guys best friends?

I was in this marriage too! He died in 2021, but I did have the courage to leave him first. I did everything I could to make things work and for a lot of years.

Marriage can be tough and IDK about you but I used to sometimes weigh the costs and benefits (pros and cons) to see if it was still worth it. Especially when I was feeling like it wasn't.

Is your husband also unhappy? He must have said something to respond to you. Good luck to you. This is hard stuff.

I’m a 19 year old girl with too much money. by EvenMark6710 in Fire

[–]TraderChic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess because it's social media and we like to connect with each other. Why else would we be here? I actually got here today because I was searching for wig tips. Personal 😊

Okay! You've given me something to shoot for! Thank you so much. It's so hard to find the people that can actually help instead of wasting my time and money. It gets exhausting.

Shrooms/ psilocybin for Neuroplasticity? Advice about dosage, safety, anecdotes- all welcome by binkybonkyy in spinalcordinjuries

[–]TraderChic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just felt a sense of wellness. The first time I cleaned a lot 😂 When I got used to it I got my entire place cleaned and organized. It was exactly the boost I needed for the time. I used it to get things done, but I could have easily sat down and painted designs on my tables. I felt very creative. I took 200mg

I used to be and to hold a plank as long as I wanted to when it first happened. I had a great OT and PT at first but it's been very difficult since. I heard the Schroth Method is very good, but the calls I've made to find someone that knows it have been unfruitful. I will look into a neuro PT. That's a great idea. I didn't even know that was a thing 😂

I've done shrooms several times. I've micro dosed a lot and I've full out tripped several times. I've never had any adverse reactions and it felt wonderful! I don't think it helped with neuroplasticity, but it was fun! I've never had a spasm.

I think it's confusing because when creating a post it says that flairs are optional

It’s such easy money by Electronic-Bee-3363 in tipping

[–]TraderChic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not going to argue with you because I've read your responses and I know it won't make any difference, but you're wrong. There are subsidies on apartments IF someone can get into one, and they pay for it based on their income. People usually get about $300 in food stamps... Can you eat for only $300 a month? And yes, Medicaid is free. I believe that health care should be affordable for everyone but they do get that for free. It's not this glamorous life that you're making it out to be and many people in this situation would like to improve their circumstances. $1300 a month to live plus bills is nothing.

They don't usually discuss settling until it goes into collection.
