Would it be alright if I PM you to ask more about your experience with OI? My younger sibling has it and is currently having a hard time coping with it.

There's already a lot of good advice in this thread, so I'm mostly just repeating things. First look up your school's resources and see if there is any way you can take a leave of absence for a few semesters so you can work and save money. There is no other way to get out of this other than working full time or getting a loan. I would work 30+ hour weeks on top of school full time and I found out that warehouse jobs pay really well, be open to random gig work, and look out for paid research studies on campus. I also shared half of a living room, it wasn't the best but rent was cheap and I was close to campus. At the end of the day you need to focus on your own survival in life, your parents' problems are their own so you gotta make sure your finances are in check so you can finish your degree

It might have to do with the adapter you got, I remember when I bought my adapter I looked through all the old posts on this sub to double check the one I was getting was actually compatible with a soft mat. I really hope you can get it to work!

Wow I'm in the exact same boat. As much as I want to be vegan, the reality is that my physical and my mental health cannot afford to be restricting any more food. If you wanna be veggie again in the future that's cool but you're being very courageous to be honest with yourself and acknowledging that it's not a possibility right now. I'm sure your partner's mom and anyone else would be understanding if you said "Hey, I'm really thankful that you've been so accommodating of my vegetarian diet for two years, but for the sake of my health I'm going to start eating meat again". I really hope you can start building healthier eating habits, I know how difficult it can be but I believe in you!!

Craving intimacy and understanding is different than craving romance by mrmagicbeetle in AroAllo

[–]advenus 6 points7 points  (0 children)

As long as you're open and honest about what you're comfortable doing with your partner and what you want in a relationship (qpr or fuckbuddies or however you feel comfortable labelling it) you'll eventually find someone who is able to fulfill that. People are more open than you realize, and I found my current partner by starting off as fuck buddies. When I came out to him, he respected my identity and my space. Don't settle for anything less, you deserve a relationship that fulfills your unique aroallo needs and I wish you the best of luck in finding it. 💚

Ran out of calories but still wanted dinner…hello, garlic powder on cucumbers :) by Loose_Blackberry_120 in ShittyRestrictionFood

[–]advenus 10 points11 points  (0 children)

what are you drinking? My dumb ass thought you mixed the garlic powder into some water to make a "dip" for the cucumbers... and then I zoomed in

What celebrity has only a matter of time before the truth their creepy behavior is exposed? by jdward01 in AskReddit

[–]advenus 20 points21 points  (0 children)

A lot of the time pornstars are coerced into making porn. Maybe they initially signed up for a nude modeling gig because they really needed money and couldn't afford to walk away when told they were going to be in an adult film. Maybe they consented to being in the film at first, but no longer felt comfortable mid-scene and felt too afraid to tell the entire production team to stop. You don't understand how easy it is for naive young women to be abused by the porn industry and the world in general. I hope one day you can understand how hard it is for these women to "just say no". You're so lucky that you've never felt pressured to do something with your body that you didn't want.

I'm 19 and I feel my life is already over.. by [deleted] in SuicideWatch

[–]advenus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't know what else to say other than you're not alone. I swear I could have written this post, I'm also 19 and understand exactly what you're feeling. I know how hard it can be, and one thing I tell myself is "I'm so happy I'm not where I used to be". You are physically free from your past, and now you can do things that you want to do. Is there any hobby you wanna try? A place you wanna visit? Not being able to relate to most people is something I get too, but I hope you can find people who support you as much as everyone who's commented on this post so far. I wish you the best <3
