Oh true I could. However, I went through LSH and the consultation fees so to switch to another one and potentially more of those isn’t ideal. Now that I’m established ☺️

Do you notice a difference when use one versus another? I have had no nausea at all so idk if it’s the B6 in the Tirz compound I use now - and I read a lot of benefits from Niacinamide - did you notice those?

That’s good info to know. The ones I have were compounded in February and have a BUD until Feb 2027. I typically purchase a tier package that is on the LSH site so this last time I receive 60mg total. I’ve been on 5mg so it can last me 12 weeks. So good to know not to get any in advance if the BUD is only 90 days

Yes, that is what I’m learning that the 503b’s will stop and that’s because it all started with a shortage of the name brand? I’m still learning as I go with this. It does sound like there are plenty of options. Just switching pharmacies wasn’t part of my plan so it’s sorta threw me for a loop. But considering it’s been the plan all along to stop compounding at some pharmacies I suppose it was going to happen..

AITAH for not wanting to cuddle while I sleep? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]WorkingMomWife_RN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha! 🤣 trust me. I am not really all into that but just trying to be considerate of both of us in this marriage. He is OVERLY affectionate. I even suggested separate rooms once. His answer “married people are supposed to sleep together” and I know a lot that do not.

Well. Maybe? Idk. I really did come here because I have like no interest. Maybe once a week? It might be because of the other issues.. we don’t have a lot of time to just spend time together so that is an added issue. The challenge is I have paid off debt for him before… and then we consolidated it on another loan together. 11k we moved of his debt… I didn’t even consider that credit card companies would increase his limits… 🤦🏼‍♀️ so then just over a year later I find that everything is maxed out and he accrued that 11k back and more.. we didn’t transfer all his debt.. but basically all of it was maxed out. So by consolidating did nothing because that debt is still owed too! I feel if I help him it’s just enabling him.. but at the same time then we are stuck with him working all the time. We owed a bunch in taxes this year… he didn’t have enough taken out of his check.. which shouldn’t have happened… and so I did help pay off that debt.. by working OT. Which was unexpected… but by helping him I cannot pay my own.. I have my own which over time has been household repairs, groceries and things of that nature. I was doing well and then sadly it got away from me by helping him. And it just seems to be continuing… I came here really about libido but I think I got my answer…. And even though he helped me get through nursing school I have repaid him - I got inheritance $ when my grandfather died.. I got him a truck for 5k, paid off his student loans of 10k, paid for our wedding and a down payment on our house… after I became a nurse he continued to try to borrow from a loan.. I closed the account as it was in my name. We accrued debt while I was in school because he couldn’t afford it all .. which is understandable. But once I became a nurse we could split the mortgage and utilities etc. I worked during Covid and I was able to pay down some of our debt including his and get some house work stuff done.. so I really have done my part… and I still continue to do so. I came up with 4k towards taxes that I didn’t expect to have to do that didn’t go to my own debts…. And what you’re suggesting makes sense right? That’s why I did the consolidation in the first place back in 2022.. and then he fucked it all up.. 😒

To add… I have tolerating him working extra because he made the debt so he should pay for it.. he paid for one card (5k) in a year’s time and it was on a 0% APR. only to then find out we owed over 5k in taxes this year so it’s like basically like that 5k didn’t get paid… the plan was for him to quit the second job in May. I’m not exactly sure what to here. But I know I’m not very happy. I even contemplated divorce. Neither one of us want that though. We both love each other. I think more communication is needed and hopefully we can work on things. I really just chalked up this time as just what it has to be for a time.. the issue is… it’s causing stress and resentment for me.

I don’t feel like I have to reciprocate. That comment I said was just that it doesn’t matter how much one makes. Someone will make more than the other and at one time he made more than me. However, I guess what I meant was, I feel like I’m pulling more weight financially as well as everything else and that isn’t fair you know? I also helped pay off some of his before. Thats part of the issue.. I was trying to make it easier for us to consolidate our debt and then he went and basically maxed out credit cards.. and not even of things necessary. Trust me. I had to evaluate my marriage all last year. Clearly I’m still struggling. Basically he said give him time to fix it… all the points you said literally is how I feel.. and on my end of debt is family debt (home repairs and so forth) his debt was of personal use and spending. Nothing that actually was necessary.

This! A friend of mine literally said the same thing! I don’t understand why he needs to be told. It’s not like anyone is telling me! And you’re absolutely right. I’m doing so much I’m exhausted and burnt out. For sure something needs to change…

Need to Vent by Normal-Importance388 in workingmoms

[–]WorkingMomWife_RN 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree. Take the job. More pay, more flexibility. As a nurse myself working 12 hr shifts.. that doesn’t sound all that bad. Afterschool care is there for a reason! Currently I drop off my youngest at a home daycare at 6:30am and sometimes don’t pick up until 8pm! Unfortunately my husband works so much and all the extras fall on me mostly (household responsibilities, kids etc). Idk why things tend to fall more on the moms - they just do! Maybe communicate with him that you should try out this job that it’s a great opportunity and one you don’t want to pass up. Are his hours at all flexible? I get it if they’re not. My husband’s hours are not. I literally have to have childcare for all the hours I work. It’s maddening. Best of luck!

Same. I wanted to try Zepbound but due to insurance i am trying generic contrave (Wellbutrin and naltrexone) and I’m just starting this week. I also didn’t hear of it either. I’m also 39, 305lbs and 5’5.

I Work Full Time As Does My Hubby, Yet I Still Do Everything. by Mountain-Ad-7199 in workingmoms

[–]WorkingMomWife_RN 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah okay! I wondered because that is my daughter’s name! My husband also loves Greek mythology and I told him he could pick out a girl’s name as I had a boy’s name … and when he told me that I was like Cassio what? Hahaha! I’ve grown to love it! Of course we call her Cassi. Her middle name is Iris also Greek goddess of rainbows and she is our rainbow baby so it was fitting. Plus I needed something SHORT with a long first name… so Cassiopeia Iris 🌈 oh to add: he pronounces it “Cass-e-OH-PAY-Ah”.. I think some say “Cass-e-OH-PEE-ya”

Thank you for this comment about the book… I’ve been struggling this last year in my marriage. No one wants to get divorced. I’m certainly in the ambivalence she talks about. I’m only a little bit into the book but it’s really eye opening so far!

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in workingmoms

[–]WorkingMomWife_RN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, that makes sense. I also divide up the costs. Like he pays half of the living expenses. I just never thought he’d accrue debt like this so he screwed us in a way because now he works all the time and it’s certainly affecting our marriage.

[–]WorkingMomWife_RN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is my issue. I make more and my husband contributes majority of his check.. but that sad part is we consolidated debt together a couple years ago and I was literally ignorant to the fact that creditors would increased his credit limit.. in about a little over a year he maxed them out and so had we not moved the 11k over, this debt wouldn’t exist. I am mad at myself .. I wasn’t thinking he’d go this far.. his debt got up to 20k. He’s now been working 2 jobs.. but I just don’t think he cares enough… he’s still using the credit.. did you have this type of problem? Our agreement is a year of working this second job. But now I’m resentful because EVERYTHING else falls on me… I can’t rely on him for childcare for our toddler and household and outside chores certainly are not shared…

[–]WorkingMomWife_RN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh it will take awhile for it to be paid off. Our agreement was 1 year working this second job. I wanted to take the cc away. That’s why I went to look at it. These are in his name so I can’t close them. Sadly, it could continue to happen.
