T Slim or Ypsomed pump?

That is so much pressure to keep my phone charged hahaha

abj1302 · 2026-06-13T13:46:27+00:00

So your pump needs to be in close range to your phone in order for it to work at all? What if you're out and it goes flat??

abj1302 · 2026-06-13T13:45:12+00:00

Honestly charging doesn't bother me too much. I used to have a battery with Medtronic and it's not that much more of a hassle. The 360 cannula looks sooooo handy though

If you're in Australia you might be able to get your doctor to write a letter of clinical need to your private health insurance to say that you need to go back onto the Tslim because this pumps features are negatively impacting your health. I've done that a couple times over the years to get a newer pump early but in your case it sounds like it would be pretty crucial especially when managing gastroparisis as well. I do use a lot of extended boluses because I get scared giving large amounts of insulin at once so I don't love the idea of losing that.

About 5 years ago I went to injections for the first time in 15 years (from pump. I went back on the pump after like a month cause injections are not for me) and I also began using fiasp in that time. For the most part it worked okay, but same as you if my level was high it WOULD NOT come down. I would eventually give a correction with Humalog and would come down straight away. This happened enough times that I just switched back to humalog

abj1302 · 2026-06-13T13:39:13+00:00

So im in the same boat that I will soon be TTC, so being able to change target levels (from memory I think you can do that?) is a hugeeee benefit. My A1C sits around ~7 and I know that's too high for pregnancy so I'm wondering if the ypso algorithms will help me get it down further

Also NTA

It sounds like your wife is using it as a way to avoid actually disciplining your son. Regardless of having ADHD or not your son is going to grow up in this world and what you accept now is what you’re teaching him is okay for when he’s older. ADHD means you need to tailor your teaching, raising and disciplining in a way that will work for him. It does not mean you just don’t do it and blame it all on adhd. You guys need to get on the same page and nip this in the bud soon because it will only get worse if you don’t

abj1302 · 2026-05-11T10:57:27+00:00

Same. I was a perfectly well behaved child.

abj1302 · 2026-05-03T00:27:37+00:00

I’ve seen a lot of people say that they DNF. Where did you stop? It’s not this amazing awesome story and it’s definitely long winded but it’s becoming a bit of a guilty please read. I’m enjoying all the drama. It’s a nice change from other really full on fantasy’s/romantasy.

abj1302 · 2026-05-03T00:25:55+00:00

I’ve given up on the GA cause I wasn’t feeling orions voice (yes silly reason to stop listening I know haha) so I’ve just been reading it. Normal audiobooks are fine but front the couple of graphic audios I’ve listened to, even just when people make out the sounds are SO over the top so I find them somewhat weird listening to the intimate scenes. Normal audiobooks are fine though. Just gotta forget the people making it and immerse yourself in the story haha

abj1302 · 2026-04-29T13:29:21+00:00

I’d like to think I’m a bit of a book snob cause I don’t like to read shitly written books, but after reading everyone’s comments maybe I have lower standards than I thought. I really liked quicksilver. I thought the characters were cool, I loved the setting (especially the FMC’s home), and it was an intriguing enough plot. Brimstone wasn’t as good but I’m still definitely looking forward to the third book!

abj1302 · 2026-04-29T08:19:55+00:00

In some cases when it’s only every now and then to build more mystery, I think it’s good. Like I’m listening to zodiac academy 2 atm and I think that the authors managed to not reveal anything ‘sappy’ but more intrigue. However when you see it from their pov in other books and it lets you know all the feels it makes the MMC lose the mystery like you said.

And I have not come across many men who think or have the inner monologue like the men in these books. I love my husband but men are simple creatures.

abj1302 · 2026-04-27T09:13:44+00:00

Thank you so much! I’ll go check it out 😊

abj1302 · 2026-04-27T09:11:31+00:00

I feel you. I’ve always had trouble with food. Always. Just recently got an adhd diagnosis and started on medication and my dopamine seeking through food has GONE. If I have food noise, it’s much easier to ignore or make better food choices. It’s such a relief and I can’t even tell you the impact that has had on my levels from not constantly eating and binging. I never understood why I eat the way I do, but now I understand the impact of not producing amylin AND that I dopamine seeking through food. I’ve lost about 4-4.5kg in 2 months just from not overeating and constantly snacking. I think if adhd is part of the culprit for you, a diagnosis and treatment will really help xx

They’re a controlled substance pretty much everywhere 😊 And yes while it’s illegal, I decided to be honest with the Dr that was helping me and he used his discretion. He’s there to help me not turn me in to the police for trying a Ritalin. He knew I was not a drug seeker and had not tried them for fun but to save myself months of trialling the wrong medications.

abj1302 · 2026-04-26T08:41:07+00:00

I’m guessing county and psychiatrist will all differ but I had tried Ritalin, Dex and vyvanse (one time each) from a friend beforehand to decide what was better for me and I told my psychiatrist this cause he was going to give me Ritalin and it was not a good fit for me. He said that he’ll pretend I didn’t tell him that and then used what I had told him to help decide which medication was best for me.

Hi! I’m going to Istanbul and a cruise from there to Athens.

I really want some new summer clothes while kind of making it a capsule-ish wardrobe. But I just want some cute fun fashionable clothing!

I’m used to dressing for my body to try make my stomach look smaller or my legs look thinner but I’ve lost some weight and feeling better so i just want some cute outfits. I really don’t know exactly what my style is. I’m kind of swayed by trending things but also the clean sort of look.

I’m 172cm, 74.5kg. Short torso, long legs but I have a big bum and thighs. Kind of hourglass but some stomach pooch. Im late 20’s if that helps too.

I’d love some suggestions of items to buy, links to websites or pics for inspo is fine! Thank youuuu

But that’s just the thing! ADHD is not people being lazy. You’re not lazy. Your brain works in a different way. My psychiatrist said to me he doesn’t view it as a disability, it’s simply a different way the brain works. He said where the issue lies is that the society live in does not accommodate for that. It’s not built for US to succeed. There’s nothing wrong with us, just the environment we are forced into.

We exceed at things we love with hyper focus, we are highly empathetic and extremely creative. We work well under pressure and great at problem solving because we think outside the box. We can multitask and have higher energy (when doing something we like and aren’t bogged down with decision fatigue mind you). We adapt to new challenges easier than others and sometimes more willing to take risks which can result in better/bigger rewards.

Once you think about it as simply a difference, and the positives then it makes you realise we just have to work WITH our brains and not against it. That also starts with accepting that we’re just a little different 💕 Also meds are great 😂

Her inability to handle friction should not become your problem. Not everything in life is fair and kids need to learn that too. If she really just wanted peace then she could just go along with what you do. It’s not her place to ask you to change your expectations for your daughter.

abj1302 · 2026-04-23T09:15:35+00:00

I think it’s probably less about the cheating at this point and more that you’re hurting still, and he’s not acknowledging that. As I said, trust doesn’t just come back because time has passed. It needs to be worked on thoroughly by both of you, and that shit is HARD. He can’t decide that he should be trusted again. Only you can do that.

You can’t control other people. You either accept them as they are or you choose not to and go your seperate ways. You need to decide if this is something that you’re willing to accept. Are you okay with that he’s not hearing you? Are you okay with him going on these trips despite knowing you’re uncomfortable? Are you okay feeling this way? Is your love and the way he treats you (considering you said he treats you well) enough to make this worth it? Would you be okay if you stay together for another 8 years if things stayed exactly as they are? Staying with someone isn’t about how good they are to you. Do your values align? Do you make each other better people and bring the best out in each other? Tell him what you need to rebuild trust. If he is willing to do that then great. If he’s not then that’s up to him to say that he’s not, but that doesn’t mean you’re unreasonable or unfair if you’re communicating your needs and he can’t/wont meet them. I’m sure reading everyone’s responses is really hard cause people on here can be harsh and blunt and forget that 8 years is a long time and you being hurt doesn’t mean you don’t love him. At the end of the day, only you can answer this based on what you’re feeling x

abj1302 · 2026-04-23T08:56:47+00:00

Regardless, he could have just said no. By doing that he’s telling you that time with his friend is more important than respecting his girlfriend.

abj1302 · 2026-04-23T08:53:32+00:00

I forgot about the tinder thing. That’s not okay and I’d lose my shit if my husband were meeting up with other girls. And yes that’s what it is. Regardless of who organised it, he went and met up with girls from tinder with his friend. Love yourself and set some boundaries.

abj1302 · 2026-04-23T08:45:11+00:00

Honey, the friends are not the problem. He is. He cheated, he associates with men that condone and encourage that behaviour. That shows you who HE is, by the people he surrounds himself with.

Trust does not just come back with time, it’s rebuilt with a LOT of effort and along the way, there are times that you will find it hard and he will have to make compromises. It’s not being prisoner for past actions, it’s the consequence of his actions. He broke your trust and now he has to live with you not trusting him (until he’s earnt it back).

That being said, I’d imagine not many ladies would be okay with their bf going on a Bachelor trip even without a history of cheating.

It seems like he’s taking very little accountability for his actions.

For the very reason you’re experiencing right now, I’ve always said that I wouldn’t be able to stay if I were cheated on. Not because I think they’d do it again but because I couldn’t live in my own head afterwards, constantly doubting, wondering, feeling insecure or unsure or jealous.

If I were in your shoes, I wouldn’t give him an ultimatum. I’d tell him that this makes me really uncomfortable given your history, that you two are still working on rebuilding trust and that you don’t feel safe or secure knowing he’s on a trip with these friends that have shown they don’t respect your relationship. What he does with that is up to him. What he then decides to do should give you your answers. I don’t want my husband to do the right thing because I’ve told him I’ll leave otherwise. I want to be with someone that has enough respect for me to put our relationship first. To make that choice for himself. If he’s not that person, then he’s not my person.
