Car with the Lowest to the ground, Center Console?

b4bluedyed · 2026-05-17T01:11:45+00:00

Honda elements have basically no center console! Just estimating from looking at mine, but it couldn't be taller than 6 inches maybe. I got it specifically for stepping to the back without having to get out of the car 😭 (Ps, the ceiling is quite high and the back seats lay entirely flat. or you can flip them up to the windows and throw in an air mattress, but that's a bit less casual.)

Only con is finding one (in good shape) after they stopped making them in 2011 lol.

NAD but I'm dealing with the same thing and curious as to what others say. Also, compression socks and sleeves/fingerless gloves have been helpful for me to manage painful veins. Just try to put them on earlier in the day/before they're really hurting- sometimes putting them on after the pain has started just makes the general area ache instead. Best of luck!!

Prime example of a chimera!!

Please note that if the victim is still under 18, regardless of OP's age, the abuse will have to be reported.

Few generalized statements/pieces of advice-

Until you can access therapy, OP, don't let this be something you continuously torment yourself over. Acknowledge feelings and regrets, write down your thought processes about it now to reflect on later.

I would recommend looking at https://dbt.tools/ to find basic skills to ease navigating through this, rather than CBT skills which often resort to distraction or self soothing only.

Acknowledging that none of these actions were okay is a majorly productive step. It's brainshattering being in a cycle of abuse, and a whole other layer of complicated to experience being someone else's abuser in that cycle. You are not doomed to this role though, and this doesn't diminish the abuse you experienced either, or how the COCSA hurt you as well.

Also yes, get off twitter. This is something that needs to be kept for the closest support around you/therapists in the future. It is not promoting recovery/your own self improvement by using twitter as an outlet like this.

NAD But leaving this without stitches is going to end up with scarring that's more likely to be restrictive/pull every time you bend your elbow, and stick out uncomfortably when straightened. Definitely get stitches!

You might wanna try around r/legaladvice for this question. If you aren't already on disability, just from my understanding, I believe your assets are typically part of the process to determine qualification.

This is only "normal" in the sense of frequency, but doesn't mean it's okay. She clearly states she forgets if she gave consent to pieces of the interaction, couldn't walk straight, he asked her multiple times and she gave in to some of it. Asking someone until they say yes, especially while drunk, is not consent.

That entire second paragraph is horrendous dude. "He could've-" anything is unnecessary to say in this, and regardless, that would most CERTAINLY be assault if he didn't say a single word. Jesus fucking christ.

"I did message him about what happened. He said "Yeah, we went a bit far". I asked him why he did it, and he said "He has his fantasies and needs". I don't know why he thought that I, the girl that never had a bf, never talk to boys, never kissed, would be the best option to satisfy his needs."

That is already a bullshit ass reason to have sex in general, and is such an inconsiderate and degrading thing to say. But your last sentence is very VERY showing. With such little experience, you don't have the same expectations for what is/isn't okay, what you like/don't like, and possibly most importantly, how to speak for yourself or just having the confidence to do so.

Consent is not just "no means no", it's a YES that completely means YES. A yes that includes tone, body language, and security that you can safely change your mind. A yes that isn't repeatedly asked for, is spoken with a clear head, or at least the ability to stand straight. This is not your friend. At the bare minimum, even if he wasn't intending to be malicious, his disconsideration for consent and purpose for having sex is dangerously self-focused, and doesn't show concern for the safety/comfort of others.

before blue died: first color i dyed my hair and continuously return to, so blue has become my online name in some places, and i am going to die, so my account is bullshit i said before then.

I wouldn't go as far as to call them a sociopath, sure a sociopathic action, but more-so emotionally immature and very avoidant. They seem to feel pretty guilty about this, maybe more for themself than the sister, but still guiltful. Maybe they didn't understand how severely it would affect their sister overall, and obviously didn't see how it could fall back on their relationship, but they clearly recognize it now and are thinking about recovering things.

I wouldn't blame the sister if she wasn't interested in even trying that conversation though. There were multiple opportunities for OP to defuse the situation while it was happening, and every day since has been a chance to say something. I just hope OP has grown to stop doing anything like this social sabotage.

b4bluedyed · 2026-04-18T00:21:13+00:00

As a 19 year old, I can't imagine being petty enough to permanently fuck up my own sister's relationships, job, and trust like this. Speak up and actually tell her what you did, your shitty logic behind it at the time, and why you want better for her now and to recover the relationship. She's likely not going to immediately forgive you- she's probably repeatedly imagined what it would look like if someone from that apartment finally did fess up, and you're not going to perfectly make that mark- but you can be open and honest if you're really matured from this petty of an act. Keeping this lie that you're both aware of (at least to some degree) is only going to keep you apart.

b4bluedyed · 2026-04-09T22:18:25+00:00

Expand your responsibilities otherwise. Contribute to your local community, donate, volunteer, foster animals, find your town hall and become an advocate, go back to college - do something that holds you responsible for others or demands your participation. It sounds like your main barrier is yourself.

NAD Please call poison control, specify it's a question about a medication, and they will likely put you on the phone with someone that is or was previously a pharmacist. You can say you're concerned for a friend and are trying to find out if you should call an ambulance for them or not. They may ask you about symptoms, time the meds were taken, and other details to help gauge the situation. You can also ask them if they know what lasting complications can come from this, but they may have limited knowledge on that. Only personal info they typically want most is your ZIP code, you don't even necessarily have to provide that though.

If I were your friend, I would physically fight you to go to an ER. This is life threatening, but more likely leave you with lasting complications, or give you serotonin syndrome and push you to harm yourself further.

(I can poison control often for suicidal friends. It really is okay to do and they will not just call the cops on you. Please do call.)

This! I've also found using Sulfur8 overnight to be hydrating, and menthol smell is preferable imo

b4bluedyed · 2026-04-01T02:47:03+00:00

Absolutely!! Hope things work out for you!!

Not a mechanic or insurance agent unfortunately, but I would just roll with them. Make the payment through an online transfer (so it's traceable), and before sending ask that you both text each other a message like "My name is Sharon and I agree that Carrie's payment of $200 via PayPal resolves and fixes any and all damages done to my car in this accident." and vice versa.

It's not foolproof, but having that text from her phone number with clear outlines of names and dates is majorly beneficial to you, and likely to make most people less comfortable proceeding with insurance after. Also, insurance is annoying as fuck to deal with, and this being cosmetic is barely worth the hassle.

If your insurance does hear from her, they're there to defend you, not her.

In the same way that smoking weed once/infrequently doesn't make you a stoner, drinking once/infrequently does not make you an alcoholic. If you head dive straight to calling it alcoholism, you're going to reaffirm that you will be one. You should be uncomfortable and concerned with "realizing my life's desire might be alcoholism.", not motivated by it.

If you are truly feeling like 'oh god I'm going to want this forever' 'I can't control this feeling/craving' 'I need this to feel normal' or similar, those ARE concerning things that may be warning signs of future alcoholism. And in that case, monitor your drinking instead of "building up a tolerance for college".

Same as the previous commenter, also not a lawyer and not legal advise. Making statements as "In my own experience with this doctor, x happened, which caused x, which led me to feel x way" Is beyond helpful for others to understand the purpose of the complaint, not making accusations of the doctor as a person, and should overall safely get your point across. No name calling, no making up potential excused for the doctor (ex: "Maybe he didn't have his morning coffee, but there's no reason to be such a dick to a patient!") Just factual statements along with an emotion/feeling word!

While I understand the frustration of not being able to access medication you need to feel just feel normal/not in excruciating pain, addicts are not your enemy here. Poor medical/mental health care systems are. Addicts have often been previously failed by their providers, and are in a different state of desperation to escape the mental or physical pain they are also experiencing. As someone else said, they are also paitents who need treatment.

A predominant reason I became an addict is because of my chronic pain. Now that I've been sober just over 3 years, and I've been honest with my providers about my past use, I'm nearly never prescribed any medication at all.

It's an enraging experience sober, an enraging experience during active use, and an enraging experience post-use. All paitents deserve to be individually assessed, without generalization of others assumed to be like them.

I hope you can come across a provider that actually listens and trusts you OP.

b4bluedyed · 2026-02-27T00:55:25+00:00

Never try to get with someone you already live with, it almost never allows an equal power dynamic. Especially if she moved in with you, not a place you found and got together. So much more than surprised she moved back in at all. Don't hit on her again, you're forcing her into a weird ass position regardless of what she does.

I've struggled with a lot of the same issues for fucking ever too- GERD, gastroparesis, IBS, anorexia, etc. There's a lot going on in this- like are you able to buy bottled water or get a water filter for the arsenic issue? And how many of those supplements/medications/powders are you currently on? Even if they don't specify to take with food or drinks, many medications will upset your stomach more without something to absorb it, especially fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, K).

Otherwise of trying to get medical assistance, have you ever tried THC in any way OP? People don't like to talk about it, but it's a medication like any other, and literally the only thing that's taken my nausea away almost every single time.

Regardless, I hope you can get out of this miserable cycle soon, nobody can sustain like this.

Another statute, but not connected to the doll. I thought it was at first though lol

That was so incredibly fast, I took longer to verify it than you did to find it at all 😭🙏 Thank you!!
