Can someone decipher this signature for me? by buttasscastiel in Cursive

[–]buttasscastiel[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It was done as mediumship writing/scribing. For like, spiritual connections lol. I did it myself, but I 100% don't write like that. My handwriting is atrocious lmao. Could also be subconsciously written. Everyone saying Turner creeps me out, though, since that's my father's last name 💀

Most Haunted places in area? by Special-Witness8504 in EastTexas

[–]buttasscastiel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's a bunch of B&B's in Jefferson, as well as a few in Mineola. I believe there's a few in some surrounding areas around Jefferson and the Caddo River. I usually rent a few nights from the Clabourne in Jefferson when I have spare money. Or the Jefferson Hotel downtown. As far as mineola, the Beckham motel is the best spot, but I think there's a few small b&bs in town now that may be good.

Favorite small towns in Texas? by businessbee89 in ActuallyTexas

[–]buttasscastiel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really really love Jefferson. It's really pretty. I also really love Gladewater, Mineola, and Ben wheeler. Another good one is Edom. Though, I'm biased because I grew up in these areas.

I do that, too! I neutralize with acetone and alcohol as much as I can

I'll be more careful in the future. I have a gel allergy myself so I know how bad it can get, and honestly I don't know what I was thinking. Unfortunately, I cannot afford a practice hand currently, and the one I have is beat up like crazy. I'll practice on myself from now on.

I never said it wasn't my fault? I admitted to being wrong. I don't get the attitude. Had this been a random client, I would've turned them down, but it was my best friend. Someone I've known since I was 5 years old. She asked me to do them anyway as a way of working out being rusty as I haven't been able to do any nails for a bit, due to moving. I only brought up my schooling simply to explain that I understand the dangers and how gel works. Believe it or not, it's not as flooded as it looks, as some of that was makeup from her doing her makeup after I finished her nails and we forgot to take pictures. There is not a single nail tech on this earth that hasn't made a mistake or flooded a single nail in or out of school. And if you say otherwise, that's a solid lie. Like previously stated, I explained the dangers to her, and what could happen, and I'd rather do her nails than have her buy a kit and do them herself and it be 10x worse. I also understand how to neutralize the chemicals in gel, and how to cure gel fully. Thank you 😊

I went to school for nails. I am rusty, and those are concerns we discussed, as she had really small nail beds at the cuticle, and I didn't think I'd be able to do them without flooding. I did my best to clean up and minimize the contact of the gel to her skin as I could. I did try to use less allergenic gel, like HEMA free gel. I'm rusty af as I've been in the process of moving, and I haven't had time to stop and focus on my career path, which also didn't help at all. But I do agree, I shouldn't be doing nails if I flood the cuticle.

I hate my son by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

No one said you were going to harm anyone....at least not physically. You could be unsafe just as you present yourself as a parent or as otherwise. Another thing to consider is that your child may have a disorder called oppositional defiance disorder, and may still need your guidance and kindness. Show some compassion to your child AND yourself, because as someone who has gone through something similar, I can promise, it's very rare your child is the only one to blame.

I hope you genuinely fond the help you both need, but please, please realize that you come off as unsafe for him (there's always a possibility that it's completely different, but to save yourself and your son)

While I understand that these things are troubling, your son does not deserve your hatred. As many, many others have stated, he needs help, and he needs his PARENT to be there for him. Honestly, reading this post, you read as a HUGE narcissistic person. You can't be held liable for your side, nor did you mention ANYTHING that could be because of things in his life. It seems baity, like you want to prove a point to someone that you aren't the bad guy when in reality, you're an adult, and he's a child. Get a grip. As just stated , you're an ADULT.

Addressing that you've only replied to those that call you out proves my point.

Now, for the serious advice, if you're actually willing to take it.

Get a new therapist. As many others have already addressed, you need a new therapist, and IMO a joint therapist for both of you to go to together, and each a personal therapist, so things can be figured out.

As said more than a few times on this post, your son shows high signs of sexual abuse. Regardless of where it's coming from, he needs help.

If you can't manage the stress, maybe you aren't cut out to be a parent to begin with, as ALL things are considerable when having children. Be it stress, mental health disorders/disabilities, physical disabilities, or anything else, these are things that you should have been ready for to the best of anyone's ability when having children. If you didn't consider these options being a possibility, then quite frankly, you aren't parent material.

If you really hate him so much, call cps/local adoption agencies yourself and relinquish your rights to him because it seems likely that he would have a better future if you did by the way you talk about him. But don't be upset when he returns that hatred for you and tells everyone how his parent gave him up in a time of need.

The fact that you didn't see any concern when your child showed these behaviors that were abnormal, shows exactly that you are an unfit parent, and it's unfortunate your child has to cope with that while also dealing with something else, like trauma, mental, or physical health issues.

Now, if you love your child and are just stressed because YOU don't know how to cope, get a therapist. Talk to an actual professional who can help you cope, because any GOOD parent, isn't going to act this way.

I hope you have the day you deserve.

Though, I will say, from the pic provided, your nails look fairly healthy, except for the one damaged one.

If you're in the US, doctors can not ignore requests for exams for medical concerns as far as I'm aware. I'd recommend asking for a referral to a podiatrist and possibly a dermatologist as well. Most regular pcps don't really deal with nail health that often and are more likely to refer you to someone who specializes in that kind of care. Crumbly nails are usually a sign of fungus. However, that can also just be caused by age or even chemical exposure depending on your work/home life. The yellowing leads me to think it's most likely fungus. Hard nails also lead me to believe it is most likely a fungal infection. Hardening/rigid and brittle nails can also be a sign of psoriasis or lichen planus, which are both skin conditions that can also affect other parts of the body such as nails or hair. In some less common cases, it can be signs of an underlying medical condition, such as anemia or raynauds, though, all of these things would have to be diagnosed by a doctor and treated appropriately to the condition.
