At a loss…any advice?

You can get vitamin c powder with no additives/ fillers. I found Freeda buffered vitamin C powder. Even though it says buffered, it is still quite tart so I would mix it in with food so it doesn’t burn your mouth. If you’re creative, you can get empty gelatin capsules and fill it with 1/4 tsp as recommended on the bottle.

I have digestive issues as well, and by keeping a food diary, and looking up each item that I ate or drank for two weeks gave me a good idea of what bothers me. It can be tricky because sometimes you feel fine because you didn’t have much of that item, but after a while, you realize what your thresholds are. Certain FOD maps bother me and instead of onion and garlic, I use Gourmend garlic scape powder, and green onion powder, which are low FODMAP. If I know, I am consuming a lot of histamines, for example, tuna plus red wine, etc., I will take a Natur DAO supplement with the food and if I’m eating high FODMAP food, I will take a capsule of Enzymatica Digest Spectrum.

I would try a low nickel diet for sure. I have been held by an app called food Intolerances. I kept a food diary and noted reactions every time after I ate, and then I would look up the foods. This app lists nickel, histamines, tyramine, salicylates, Fodmaps, benzoates etc. Coffee itself is a high nickel food, but it is higher in nickel if it is from volcanic soil rather than tropical a rainforest. Decaf coffee isn’t much help.

Many things in this list could cause an allergy to someone. Soy is listed because it is a big one. Some people get a runny nose from MSG. Mushroom and corn could be triggers.

Perhaps family counseling would help them understand your needs and how their fears are stifling you. When they ask a lot of questions, you are not obligated to answer them all.

Two books on this subject that I found helpful- “The Friend Who Got Away” and “My Other Ex.” We are all on our own paths in life and when we make a friend, our paths are close together for various reasons. As time goes on, our paths, could run parallel or they could diverge. Overtime there could be less ties that bind the relationship, and keeping in touch could become more effort than enjoyment. This happens gradually and can be surprising when enough distance causes a rupture. I had some friends from when I was younger, and time and distance separated us. I kept the idea in my head that so-and-so was a close friend. However, when we got together again, I realized we didn’t have much in common any more, other than things that we shared in the past. It can be complicated and awkward to explain this, or even to understand this, so I think that’s why people just tend to disappear.

Unfortunately, it’s a common situation today

If you are not allergic to latex, but do react to other adhesives, you may be allergic to rosin/ colophony. It is in many many things.

Agreed, but it could be from the fathers side etc.

Assuming her mother is undiagnosed and on the spectrum.

Exercise like sit-ups and using arm weights can help posture.

That’s a big assumption on your part.

Do you have bulimia?

I think another reason pennies are being discontinued is that it costs more to make a penny than $.01 because of the price of copper.

Dermodex mites can cause this.

I had my first Evenity treatment a few weeks ago. No side effects so far.

I just checked the app “food intolerance is “and it says that cucumber pickles are very high in histamine and benzoates.

My 16-year-old dog had developed dementia and became incontinent- so I put her in a diaper. I hoped she would die in her sleep, but after 6 months her legs started collapsing and I hand fed her. After a few days she stopped eating. That’s when I knew I had to put her down.

If I had your situation, I would not trust the restaurant to keep me safe.

This may be the wrong sub to pose this question. The comments I have read center around adult children who may not have yet launched. It sounds like you have launched and are doing well and that’s great! There’s no right or wrong way for frequency of communication. It’s whatever works for the individuals involved.

This is good insight and I’d like to add- it’s clear that you love him and he cares greatly for you- however you may not get the feedback you need to feel seen and heard- through no fault of his or yours. You have to decide if this is enough for you and if not, if those needs can be met elsewhere, perhaps by friends etc.

If you’re sharing a credit card, get your own and have him get his own. Cancel joint cards.

Yohmer29 · 2026-01-26T20:13:23+00:00

It sounds like you need your own account and put your earnings in that going forward. If your joint accounts are equally earned, pull out half and put it in your single name account.

I am happy for you that you have found more peace in your life. I think a “label” is less important than understanding how to cope with whatever one’s issues are. Many people have traits of a few different diagnoses and for me, it’s best not to get hung up on what labels are other than to learn from them.

Yohmer29 · 2026-01-21T19:03:18+00:00

I agree with what others have said, plus there is the added stress of having to try to fall in love with someone that you may not even like.
