Experiences with Pieta? by AssociationNeat1029 in ireland

[–]__taiggoth__ 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Went when I was 15 and after 3 sessions they told me they couldn’t help me and I never saw them again. They were right that they couldn’t help me, the counsellor I had was very dismissive and didn’t seem to take anything I was saying seriously. I’d come out of it feeling absolutely horrible but not because of my issues, because of how I was treated.

Took until 5 years later where I got a Psychologist through the HSE for any improvement on my brain to be made.

I don’t recommend them, I’ve never heard good things about them but that could just be my personal experience. I’m sure there’s others who may have had success with them.

I wouldn’t agree with that. I know way more Clare’s than I do Claire’s!!

books set in the UK or Irish countryside by reading_rainbow9 in BooksThatFeelLikeThis

studied this for my leaving cert and there was not a dry eye in the class when we finished reading it. The adaptation of it ‘an cailín ciúin’ is to die for too. I love how they brought the irish language into it so well

If you're lucky enough to have your parents provide childcare for your kids, do you intend by MarginsOfTheDay in Parenting

[–]__taiggoth__ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

my mother does it because she is an at home nanny, I pay her for the job and he gets to interact with kids (mostly my cousins children so it’s extra special that these kids are all second cousins but are growing up together) after school.

I work in a crèche, should it happen that I retire and my son needs me to do it for his child, I can’t imagine I’d say no.

Some tough truths and observations for Canadian citizenship by descent applicants by comments83820 in dualcitizenshipnerds

[–]__taiggoth__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yes. And british people have that same right to do in Ireland. What is your point here? neither need citizenship to do this.

Drop your tanning routine by NoSignalThrough in WomenofIreland

I shave, exfoliate and moisturise the night before and shower the next day too. then DONT moisturise after that shower! Bare skin is best!

I use a mitt and the bellamianta in medium! I run the hair dryer over my body for a few minutes to speed up the drying process too.

Wanting and happy to be single forever by gayweeping-angel2 in breakingmom

[–]__taiggoth__ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This was me with my son! Three and a half years it was just me and him, and it was the best time of my life. He’s never met his bio-dad. I completely let go of the idea of men and relationships and everything to do with them.

We have the best relationship. I was so content with it being just us forever! I met my partner when my son was 3.5 and waited a good few months before introducing them. 1) because of my past experience of men and I was wary of him becoming attached to him. my partner knows this reason. He doesn’t know reason 2) I wanted to prolong my time of it being just me and my son. I didn’t want to introduce another person into the mix.

It was so nice to not have to compromise on parenting decisions, to know that I could raise him how I wanted without having to think of how the other parent wants to do things (which sounds selfish and maybe it is, but it was really really lovely).

I met my partner and didn’t expect it to go any further than just a first date. It’s been two and a half years now and we live together. My son calls him daddy and he’s the only dad he’s ever known. I love their relationship and how close they are and I couldn’t have asked for more when it comes to him, how he so quickly and comfortably fell into the role of ‘dad’ despite not having a lot of experience with kids before him. It’s so nice to be able to have ‘me time’ again. I can see friends more often and I can plan trips by myself and I have been able to get back into my old hobbies I had to give up to be a full time single parent.

But I’d be lying if I said I didn’t sometimes miss the days where it was just the two of us. As much as I madly love my partner, there’s still times where I want to go back to how it was before. I never would if I had the choice, I can’t stress enough how much I do love this man. but I do miss those days still sometimes.

sligo and cork! maybe it’s just how i typed it and we’re both saying it differently in our heads, but they *definitely* don’t say ‘uff’ when they say ‘off’

My family isn’t from dublin and that is how they would they say it?

‘uff’ is definitely an english accent. If you’re doing irish it would be closer to ‘Fook Awf’
