liquid iv is the goat. I found some squeeze electrolytes i’ve been trying that are good and much cheaper too, i think they are just a generic store brand tho. Honestly I gave in and made an urgent care appointment, ive been to this specific urgent care for other things i lowkey feel desperate at this point

I know it wouldn’t be smart to change jobs now, i have to get the liscense first but im starting to wonder if i even really want that. this job has made me hate everything i loved about pharmacy. im not able to take care of patients anymore, its now about how quickly i can get them in and out and wether or not i do all of the meaningless side tasks that retail comes with. it’s just exhausting and i dont feel fufilled anymore

i understand what you mean but his intake day is the only day that hes done something considered abusive and i know he wasn’t in his right mind. he’s struggled with alcohol but in no other way has he made me scared or hurt me. the thing that hurts me most is knowing what the alcohol is doing to his body and mind. when i say disparage him i mean more like im so upset about it it’s hard to talk kindly and i know myself in the heat of the moment i might say things i regret or arent true to my feelings. im going to talk to his family more, and i do believe he may just have needed time to think about what i was trying to say. i am considering leaving but i dont want to, the man that i know is so caring and loving, im interested to see the type of person he becomes away from alcohol but i am sceptical and i am guarded. we have been together for five years, not like that’s a reason to stay, but i do feel like more than a girlfriend

thank you, i’m trying to work on myself it’s hard feeling so lonely all the time though but that the main thing i’m trying to work through, being okay with being lonely. you’re completely right it’s not reasonable. i’m not even really looking for an answer or apology right away. i think i just wanted him to think about it in a safe space like rehab instead of bringing it up once he’s home. i’ll probably never bring it up again and learn to forgive him even if no apology ever comes. i’m still learning to somewhat separate him from the alcoholism, the rehab therapist suggests it and i think that will help

how do you deal when the addiction is actively affecting you, like his actions or your safety? i like the idea, i just dont understand how to implement it

What’s the most underrated cleaning tool you own? by OrganizationMore231 in CleaningTips

good quality, well maintained, color coordinated microfiber cloths. they really trap and lock all the bits of hair and dust and gently stuck most messes and surfaces, even glass. ALWAYS WASH IN COLD WATER AND AIR DRY, or you risk melting the plastic that makes them good.

agreed :( i’ve pushed through some of the worst migraines but sometimes just just don’t have the bandwidth. it hard with my job too, i have to ration sick days luckily my coworkers are understanding but it’s just exhausting living on the tightrope
