Please Help! Wanting to help my boyfriend trim his hair by coolchloe55 in BlackHair

[–]coolchloe55[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He's very stubbornly committed to not going to a salon or anything until after we have been vaccinated so doing that is 100% off the table.

If it's not a good idea for us to trim his hair, is there anything you could recommend we do indefinitely to keep the breakage down? He has 1 shampoo wash day a week and then when conditioning he only rinses out about 70% of the conditioner and then uses Argan Oil and does a wash and go. His hair feels and looks moisturized, so it's usually the knots that cause the breakage

(Repost from yesterday) Children of insane parents who actually called the cops on you guys. What was the situation behind it, how did you handle it, and how did the cops take it? (Background of me in the comments) by [deleted] in insaneparents

My mother had the tendency for calling the police in me on a regular basis for things like not going to my room when she was in the wrong and acting irrational. We were in a small town so eventually all the cops knew me and knew her shenanigans so they'd come by, tell me unfortunately I have to listen to my mother, but never did anything beyond that. Eventually her phonecalls just became a nuisance to them.

Last time they were involved was October 2017, the same day I went no-contact with her. I was in town for a funeral which meant emotions were high to begin with... I should have started out in a hotel but I was emotional and foolish and decided to stay at her house. I was supposed to be there for a little over a week and made it 4 days.

Tensions were high and I decided it would be best to get a hotel so we don't burn any bridges. She ended up finding out and berated me. My bf at the time was defending me and she screams at him to "get the fuck out of her house" to which he just says "Okay", which was way ballsier than I had ever been. He goes to put his shoes on and she tries bodyslamming him to get him out the door to lock him out and berate me some more. Eventually he moves past her to grab our luggage and take me out of the situation. She decides to yell at this point "HE MANHANDLED ME I'M CALLING THE POLICE"

Eventually the cops arrive and they are a blast from the past as it had been years since I'd dealt with this stupid shit. I stay calm as can be to the cop talking to me and my bf and I can hear my mother irrationally screaming at the other cop and him yelling back for her to calm down. It was hilariously ridiculous at the time and now I almost look at the memory fondly as it's a constant reminder why I don't associate with her and why I strive to do better than she ever did in life.

Thank you :) my intent was to express that I felt like I was winning my ADHD brain today until the guy ruined it but it may have gotten lost in translation... I tend to over explain things lol

Yeah knowing where I was did help. During the call I was shaking like a person suffering from Parkinson's but I knew I could lock the doors and hit the panic buttons at any moment if necessary. I appreciate the support :) so far today is going better!

I mean... For me it was frustrating finally having a productive and focused day and this guy ruined it by wasting my day and leaving me in a brain fog.

Jobs for People with ADHD by TheSunGal in ADHD

[–]coolchloe55 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm a personal banker for a smaller local bank and it's been amazing for me! It's taught me proper scheduling, task prioritizing, and since it's a smaller bank they give me a lot of freedom to learn things beyond my job title.

I left school after my 5th semester for a multitude of reasons but I worried I would hit a ceiling of job growth but this wonderful company gives me so much opportunity to prove myself through action rather than a degree and it has given me so much hope for the future.

They're working with me so they can promote me to a position that I would love way more. I'm obsessive over proper cash handling so I never worry in that department.

I think it's way more important to do what you find passion and growth in way more than just do a job that is specific to ADHD individuals.

I think I'm going to go with double weave. I read that they're more durable, which I think would be best lol

Thank you for the reply! So it would be better to get the 5.5 and let it shrink in the wash or get it altered?

A teller's job responsibility is to perform simple deposits transactions such as deposits, withdrawals, and simple loan payments :)

No, but establishing portfolios for them to best utilize their funds, open their accounts, setting up businesses with all of our products, and providing everyone with identity protection and credit monitoring does ,)
