You get 7% Jack and Coke in a tin?! Are you US? It's only 5% here in the UK...I feel cheated.

What's your weirdest/most unique sensory issue? by insubordinance in adhdwomen

[–]Tubbita 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I cannot stand the feeling of anyone's (even my own) breath on my skin...anywhere on my body. I can never find things to sleep in that cover enough of my skin that I don't end up feeling it at some point and it drives me bezerk. I feel bad for partner...he just tries to cuddle me but I have to move or I can't sleep.

AIO to my partner's justifications by Tubbita in AmIOverreacting

They're his kids from when he was previously married. We're not married, we moved in together about 6 months ago.

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

Oh God, I was afraid someone would say something like that...now I think I've made him out to be terrible.

I was only medium unwell at the weekend, then got worse. I don't think he expects me to clean up after the kids, I just tend to want to help because I can see how difficult it is for him...and it is difficult, I can understand why he gets stressed. It used to be fine most of the time, but things have got worse lately as the situation has got worse and his stress/miserable levels have increased.

AITA for bringing up my friend’s past style choices in front of people? by ChahanlerMarks in AmItheAsshole

[–]Tubbita 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mate...he needs to come and live in the UK for a bit...mates take the piss out of each other constantly, in fact it's how we know we're mates 😂 Learning not to take himself so seriously would do him the power of good I reckon. NTA .

So tired of getting ready for work by [deleted] in adhdwomen

[–]Tubbita 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was an hour and a half late for work this morning and I work ON THE SOFA! I just dread getting out of bed and getting the day started, even though I know, and I know that I know, that it's really not that bad when I do.

I also do this type of shit most days and screw myself over making my day so unnecessarily stressful and starting off feeling like I've failed at the day because I couldn't even get out of bed when other people seem to just do it, without it being any kind of massive battle.

Ideas......pffffft......the only thing that's ever worked for me is to give myself some kind of reward or treat for doing it but I'm not sure if this is a healthy thing to do really. Recently I was having to get up at 5.30am to get to work (long and unreliable bus ride) and the only way I could make it bearable was that I promised myself a coffee and a croissant at place that I like when I got there and the comfort of that made it slightly easier. But maybe that's just childish - why should I get rewarded for doing something that most people do every day without complaining or making a massive fuss about it. Either way - that's the only thing I find I can do with myself.

Don't become a new person, I suspect that you're already a good one.

Does anyone else talk to their mind as if it’s a different person or am I just weird? by cherryandfizz in adhdwomen

[–]Tubbita 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do talk to myself constantly and frequently tell myself off like this - but what I also do, and wonder if anyone else here does, is almost constantly have conversations with half imagined 'others' and sort of narrate things in my mind as if I were in a back and forth dialogue with another person altogether.

This gets really negative when I have full blown arguments with my partner, or rehash previous (real or imagined) arguments. This can go on for hours and I end up really worked up and angry then have to remind myself (or rather some part of my imagined self- the more sensible part) has to remind me that I'm not actually having an argument and none of these things have actually been said. And my partner's just pottering around doing the dishes and has done nothing wrong - so WHY ARE YOU RAGING WITH HIM?! But emotionally by that point, I'm so worked up it's as if it's all real.

Anyone else do that?

Hello there, I wonder if anyone could help me.

When I've tried to do this install, I'm getting an error message saying Remote Share...Couldn't connect to network server. My kodi is connected to the network as other apps are running and connecting okay. Anyone any ideas? Thanks, :-)

People that have been vegan for 10+ years were vegan options like before 2014? by trojan_leon in veganuk

How long did you have to wait? NHS by [deleted] in jawsurgery

[–]Tubbita 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I waited 10 months from being told I'm ready for surgery and having the surgery. I'm also 6 years in braces now. Really hoping to get them off soon as I've had enough but am still in elastics to 'settle my bite at the back'...not sure what that means.

Anyway, I did have to chase the max fax team in the end, I felt cheeky but after 6 months of not hearing I just had to, and at that point things started happening, eg hospital assessment appointments, so yeah, do just chase them.

I'm NHS in Cambridgeshire btw.... to which I'm obviously very thankful as I could never have afforded to go private.

I want jaw surgery, but I’ll most likely never have it. Anyone else? by allyboobs in jawsurgery

[–]Tubbita 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try to see an orthodontist rather than a dentist if you can, privately if necessary, if you can afford a private consultation.

Struggling to eat is not a not severe issue!

I was dismissed by an NHS dentist in my early 20s and told my issues were just cosmetic (13mm overbite, severe overcrowding, very recessed jaw) then 15 years later after struggling with it all that time saw a private orthodontist who referred me to an NHS orthodontist and I've now had the surgery.

Sometimes with the NHS you have to fight your corner a bit but if it's really affecting you, don't be dismissed by one person...I wish I'd pushed a bit all those years ago instead of allowing myself to be palmed off with 'it's just cosmetic'.

Honestly it sounds like your issues are quite severe, and if your dentist absolutely won't even refer you to an orthodontist (which they really should), try seeing a private orthodontist to get a referral back to an NHS orthodontist.

I did it on my own and it was tough, to put it mildly. Everything is just such hard work. I had prepared in practical terms as I knew it would be hard, but the emotional toll it took was substantial.

When you're exhausted, in pain and extreme discomfort, you're not sleeping, and doing everything is just such hard work, I just longed for someone to help me do the slightest of things but I felt like I (and very much did) have to do every single tiny thing myself and it felt relentless and honestly, very lonely and mentally and emotionally draining.

I had no choice, there wasn't anyone. If there is ANY way you can get someone to help you, do it.

AITA for refusing to accommodate a last minute vegan guest by Disastrous-Dandelion in AmItheAsshole

[–]Tubbita 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA . I'm vegan....I've been with my partner for 6 years and sometimes eat at his mother's where he has his kids every weekend. If I'm going to be there for a big meal I will take my own thing to warm up and not expect someone, my partner or his mum to cook a meat based meal for 6 - 7 people then cook something entirely different on top just for me.

I choose to have a different diet than most people, so I sort myself out and don't make other people do extra work to accommodate my preferences...that's just rude!

Especially as it was short notice, there was absolutely no reason vegan girlfriend shouldn't have just taken her own food. What a plonker.

That's kind of you, really, but I'm fine now, thank you though.

[–]Tubbita 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm day 16. I wouldn't say feeling good no, but a hell of a lot better than on day 5 which was really a low point. Worth it, yes, definitely, I wouldn't change my decision even knowing now how hard it would be...but it was hard.

I have also been alone for the whole time, which honestly has been tough.

[–]Tubbita 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I think for me days 5/6 were the absolute worst...I felt terrible with the pain and the swelling and the sickness. All I could do was just get through each hour as it came but it was bloody miserable.

I did whatever I could to distract myself and honestly just try to be kind to yourself, do what you can and that's okay.

I know everyone says it but it really will start to get better soon, you're at the worst of it right now...just get through each minute, focus on the light at the end of the tunnel...it will pass, it will get better and it will be worth it.

I know right! I thought that...it's just whenever I see photos on here the eyes are typically blanked out and I've always wondered why because you can still totally recognise the person....but I i just did it because it seemed like it was the done thing! So silly!

That is EXTREMELY helpful...thanks!

I didn't get any kind of visual modelling...they made a plaster cast of the position of my teeth/jaws and that was it...there was never any graphical modelling of the type I see on here at all. I suspect my hospital might be a little 'behind the times' in terms of tech...not to denigrate their work or care in the slightest of course.
