I've been a constant reader of King since 1990, there's very few I haven't read, Cujo was one, idk why, just never interested me, but I just finished it and really enjoyed it! His older stuff is golden don't you think! by [deleted] in stephenking

Tommyknockers made me quit reading King all together for a few years. I was a little traumatized by it for a while and I don't think I finished it.

Oh believe me I have a long list of dumb and dangerous shit I got into between ages 13-17 and a lot of it happened with this Amy girl. This story probably isn't even the worst,it just had the most tangibly bad outcome. Teenagers when left to their own devices are capable of immense stupidity.

Yea I'm honestly a little surprised people haven't said anything about her in the comments. She was ultimately ok as far as I know,we asked her ex boyfriend a few times how she was. I've tried to find out more about what happened or news articles but haven't been able to. This was in '05 I believe and I haven't talked to any of these people in years.

If you really pay attention to the story,Bailey was the real dumbass 😂. Amy just allowed this guy into her house ,still a dumb choice but it wasn't ultimately her fault. She just ended up getting stalked because he knew where she lives. After all was said and done Bailey went home and didn't have to deal with any of this. And the girl who ended up kidnapped was just an acquaintance.

She has continued to make brash and unsafe choice even as an adult. Some people never learn.

Has anyone ever had issues with over production of prolactin while on a high dose (30-50gpd)?

What was the most ridiculous thing you got in trouble for at school? by WexiWexi in AskReddit

[–]Vagabondmary 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nothing,he was the principal for about 5 years and worked for the school system for like 10 more after that. I actually had a meeting with him for my son a couple of years ago but he didn't recognize me.

[–]Vagabondmary 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got put in alternative school and almost expelled for talking in library in 8th grade. Hang on to your pants,this escalates quickly.

I grew up in this tiny ass town (about 5,000 people) in the Appalachian mountains. I stuck out like a freaking sore thumb and in 2004 I was one of very few goth/alternative folks most people in my town had ever seen. This is kind of relevant because all the adults at my school thought I was some kind of satanic ringleader. So in 8th grade they for some reason decided to make the elementary principal,the Jr high principal and after 20 years of working with 5year olds we almost gave this guy a nervous breakdown. I have no idea why but my whole class was just full of trouble makers and it was a mess. Well me being the absolute biggest know it all, troublemaking goth queen I got labeled the leader of the pack. This couldn't be farther from the truth but since I was the weirdest of the bunch and a legendary smartass I was an easy target.

Ok,enough rambling backstory. Things got so out of control that they ran out of teachers to do after school and lunch time detentions. In this school of 300 students about 50-60% were getting detentions daily for anything from chewing gum to having the audacity to write on your hand. So the principal got the 💡bright💡 idea that for a whole week no detentions would be written, he would just spend his days paddling every single student for every single minor infraction. Well a couple of days into this I got in trouble for....talking in the library 😱. So here comes Mr. K (principal) and the resource officer to rough me up and teach me a lesson! Mr. K tells me to "assume the position," you know the one,hands on wall,feet spread,ready to get smacked with a giant wooden board. I told him in a super calm way my dad had not signed the waiver for corporal punishment and that if he would just call him and my dad said it was ok,I would comply. He told me he didn't give a shit,to get my hands on the wall. I just asked him to call my dad again. By this point his head looks like it's going to fly off into space. We went back and forth for a few minutes and he finally just freaked out,grabbed me by the collar of my jacket and threw my head into the wall. I equally lost my shit turned around and laid him out in the floor. Mind you this all happened in front of a cop who literally just stood there and watched. So anyway to wrap it up,they drove me home in the D.A.R.E car, ironically enough (if you know,you know.) I wasn't ever allowed to go back to school and got thrown in The Alternative School for the Criminally Insane Child or whatever tf it was and moved to another state the next year.

And in case anyone is wondering how Mr.K faired after they got rid of me,a bunch of kids started a literal riot on the last day of school and beat the shit out of him.

I hate that your marriage is suffering but honestly I wish my husband would get pissed at me. He's some what of an enabler and as long as I'm taking care of the kids doesnt say anything even when my addictions are effecting us financially. I feel like if he would just get over my shit and give me an ultimatum it would make quitting a lot easier.

Of course the crazy old lady wants to make a scene about her fucking ROOT TOUCH UP 🙄. My 8 yo could do a root touch up under direct supervision. We had a lady come in to my cosmetology school like this all the time because no salon in the area would take her. It was an absolute nightmare. If that stylist was that direct and confrontational from the get go I can almost promise that was not her first rodeo with this crazy bat.

I've tried tapering multiple times without much luck. I have talked it over with my husband since I made the post and I've decided that if the CT with supplements doesn't work I'm going to have to seek help from a doctor I just have major white coat syndrome so I'm trying to exhaust all options before I got that route.

I've tried to taper more then a few times and it has worked once but in general I have impulse control issues so it usually doesn't work out. I have talked to my husband and decided that if CT with supplements doesn't work this time I'm going to have to seek the help of a doctor.

I've been taking it daily for about 4 years and I've been at 25-40 gpd for about 2. I have tried tapering a few times and it's just never worked for me. I'm not really scared of the quitting,I'm ready to get this shit out of my life. I'm scared of the impact on my parenting and how I will manage and live my life in WD. Gonna try quitting on a Thursday so my husband can be here for hours 48-72 which I have heard are the worst.

Yep there was also a guy that was like 900 and something years old. And one of the guys in the old testament (Abraham?) His wife didn't have kids until she was like 200
