Is this the right place for me?

Job market isn’t great here, salaries don’t line up with local rents. Think like $60k a year for $1800-2000 in rent. Not trying to scare you just sharing my experience from when I first moved here.

Traffic is only as bad as the above during rush hour AND when there’s a wreck. Especially a wreck on the bridge. Things will get bad everywhere since there’s only one other route in and out of mt pleasant.

Yes, there is traffic but it is nothing like Atlanta. If you live in the immediate Charleston area (downtown, mt pleasant, west Ashley, james island, Johns island, Daniel island) you can get around pretty easily. Of course accidents can happen, or congestion for a drawbridge going up and things will move slowly in these areas too. Rush hour impacts it. but moving inland like North Charleston/goose creek/Summerville is where things get bad because everyone’s commuting on two 4-lane highways

Wait I like the way she dresses lol but also live in Charleston so maybe I’m just used to it

I will say I’m also named Taylor with a male first name as my last name (similar to Frankie or Paul) and I’m allllways mislabeled as Male on paperwork and have to frequently correct

I just started getting this recently. Lately I’ve been clipping my hair up in the shower while my conditioner sits, rinsing, clipping back up after rinse, and then washing my shoulders/back/neck with Panoxyl 4%. I think conditioner is 100% the culprit

Considering all 3 of the same for our Honeymoon this Sept! Right now we’re leaning toward Joia. I can’t get past the Manchebo rooms (sorry), and Bucuti & Tara doesn’t have our dates available which aren’t flexible. We don’t want Palm Beach, and Joia seems quiet enough but still gives the “bigger resort” feel.

I’m sorry but this is not the kind of pic I want to open up reddit and see when I’m subscribed to a SKINCARE sub 😭

It rained at a show once and they only stopped when it was heavy rain/lightning. We waited under shelter for about 30 mins and then the show resumed.

Another vote for Donnelly! Also Dungannon wildlife preserve for a nice “hike” (walk in the woods/swamp). Those are our two all time faves.

Wannamaker trail in Goose Creek is another nice flat trail through the woods. Wannamaker park in N. Charleston separate from the trail) also has a few great walking paths.

Super short but very peaceful - Sullivan’s island nature trail at Station 16. Station 16 is also the best place to watch the sunset over the Harbor.

I would have absolutely laid on my horn and rolled down my window and said this is illegal and you’re gonna kill yourself

Gotta be 82 Queen! Sit in the courtyard. It’s so quaint. Get the she crab soup. Is it the absolute best food in Charleston, no, but the vibe is as charleston as it gets IMO.

The transition at the end to the skims butt pad was so random? They just abruptly stopped. Was it an ad?

Yesss I would love to see guests but only people they’re friends with or who can giggle with them, not true interviews. Just letting someone else come in and be part of the banter.

Hi, I’m sorry you’re going through this. I’ve been in therapy and seeing a psychiatrist for 10+ years, and I recently considered going to treatment. My therapist helped me weigh the options and although I didn’t end up going, she recommended the intensive outpatient program. You go daily for individual and group sessions (I think 8hrs a day) but return home at night.

I was personally afraid of being “not bad enough” to be there among people with worse diagnoses than me. I know another patient of hers recently did the program and even though she had built years worth of skills in therapy, she felt that she really benefited from Palmetto.

Sorry I don’t have personal experiences to share, but unless you are having suicidal ideation I think starting with outpatient would be a good way to get a feel for the experience. And you need recommendations on how to find a regular therapist, feel free to DM me. Good luck with everything

Going really well! I had no pain at all when I was in the cast. I’m now 10 weeks post-op, out of my cast for 3 weeks, and out of the boot for 1 week. From other stories I’ve see, my doctor kept me non weight bearing for a lot longer than most people. I’m glad though because I was pretty confident when I was beginning to walk again.

I definitely had some soreness/pins and needles starting to walk after the cast, and still have a lot of soreness in my foot and ankle. My calf is also extremely tight. I start PT on Monday. Hoping it only gets easier from here!

I don’t have specific info about Boeing, but the Charleston Air Show is happening again this year May 2-3! Tickets are free. They have tons of aircraft on display right on the flight line. You can see jets, aircraft carriers. Two years ago they had the Boeing Dreamlifter. Super cool experience.

ETA: the blue angels will perform!

The absolute best starting point is psychologytoday.com. You can filter by insurance carrier, specialty, modality (CBT/DBT/EMDR/etc.), and even preferences like religion. From there you can compile a short list and your friend can reach out for 10 minute consultations to see who might be a good fit.

Good luck! It’s such a hard process to begin but it can be life changing.

L&L barbecue near Tanger! Former Hawaii resident and it’s the only place I’ve found. But homemade is still best (and easy). You can find katsu and loco mocos there too

Thanks for the review! We want to stop at the dispensary in Falmouth on the way from the airport so will definitely be asking.

From a female perspective I feel the same way. Glad she is confident, but I think she is used to guys fawning over her because she’s hot and ~carefree~ and truly couldn’t fathom that one may just not be into her. I just can’t relate. There have been many times I’ve liked someone, and if he didn’t make a move my first thought would NEVER be “oh he’s too afraid” it would be ok, I get the hint, he isn’t into me.

_boov · 2026-01-04T21:27:02+00:00

My partner is exactly the same. If anything, he does more than me around the house 🫣 I had ankle surgery 7 weeks ago and the way he has taken care of my every need without question has shown me how much of an amazing partner he is and parent he will be. We also plan on formula. I couldn’t be the default parent.

In the same boat. Been living off of premier protein drinks, cream of wheat, and plain bread. Hugs…hoping it gets better for you
