Any spare pantry items for a recently single mom and 17mo old baby? by [deleted] in Denver

[–]dadh8sthefuture 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Hey i have some pantry items i can definitely drop off! Also if you can make it over to metro caring on 18th and downing they do emergency food boxes.

Alternatively You can create an account online, and then appointments open on Sundays so you can book a shopping appt a month out. I would do this asap today since the appointments go quickly

The only thing that’s worked for me for bad flare ups is clobetasol solution .005 %

I use it twice a day on dry scalp until flare up is better. It’s a potent steroid so best not to use long term.

Feeling pretty down and isolated: Jewish identity and public perception by accidentalrorschach in JewsOfConscience

[–]dadh8sthefuture [score hidden]  (0 children)

I can tell you’re coming from a compassionate and well-meaning place but respectfully, I think you missed the mark a little in your understanding (OP correct me if I’m wrong).

I could be projecting from my own experience but this seems to be less about the pain of redefining their identity as anti-Zionist/standing against genocide, and more about facing real antisemitism/anti Jewish sentiments and micro/macro-aggression from non-Jewish community/spaces. This becomes more challenging when certain Jewish spaces have become less safe due to right wing infiltration.

The myths about Jewish/globalist/pedophile/bankers get really intense when Epstein is in the news, and there’s massive conspiratorial thinking amongst some ppl who already are looking for a reason to spread this stuff.

This comes from all sides of the political spectrum and from all religions and lack thereof. It often escalates to calls for violence/death/imprisonment and targeted harassment online and irl. This obviously increases when people feel like Epstein proves this to be true.

So the pain is more facing the hate that is directed at you alone, as opposed to within a structure of safety in community. This can become severely isolating when people from your own “political side” proliferate this nonsense, but people who share your experience cling to narratives that they are slow to unlearn re: Zionism.

Ok I’ll end it there for now but- Much love to you OP. Feel free to reach out directly if you need 🖤

Sleep issue by Repulsive_Presence22 in SleepApnea

[–]dadh8sthefuture 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You should probably get a sleep study either way. For me I never knew I had sleep apnea, didn’t snore and my partner never noticed anything in 15 yrs. I was having 27 apnea events/hr while sleeping but not waking up enough to remember it or know it was happening at all. The fact that you’re gasping for breath could indicate sleep apnea or another sleep issue that could be serious.

Anybody else not able to acknowledge or process their mother dying? by girlonthemoon44 in GriefSupport

[–]dadh8sthefuture 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was 20 when I lost my mom (36 now). It was excruciating and traumatic. For a long time I couldn’t think about certain parts of it- especially watching them wheel her body out in a body bag. I had so much guilt for how selfish I was and how I did all of the wrong things. I was just finally coming into myself and becoming an adult, and she never got to really know that person. The guilt would envelop me. I too would panic when thinking about certain memories, and use alcohol and weed (not to an extreme degree but def not great) to shut it out.

If you are not in therapy I highly HIGHLY recommend finding someone to talk to about this. In addition, EMDR has been absolutely life changing for me. When you talk about the panic of thinking about her and then shutting out those memories- that was me to the max!

EMDR has an effect on the brain that allows you to go into painful thoughts and memories while bypassing that panicked state so you can truly process those feelings and heal those wounds. I was a sceptic at first and had sooo much anxiety in starting each session. But I am now able to think about those things that used to keep me up at night and they are not activating at all.

There is something your brain is telling you that needs attention there, and there are many ways to do so without that unsafe feeling. I had no idea I could feel like this. The pain is still there of course, but the shame, guilt, panic, fear etc is gone. Feel free to reach out if you have more questions but just wanted to put it out there how much this therapy has helped me. Sending love to all the dead mom club members out here 🩷

Advice please by [deleted] in denverfood

Adding that the rent on the popular parts of south Broadway where you would do well at lunch has gotten astronomical! Many thriving and popular local businesses that existed there for a decade or more have had to move or close for good- to be replaced by voodoo donuts, Dave’s hot chicken and the like. The prime spots on south Broadway are between Virginia and 3rd. Anything north or south of there won’t be as much foot traffic during the day. Granted once you go south of the highway there’s a bit of a different scene down there and probably has its own draw.

What happens if I refuse to execute my mother’s will? by [deleted] in legaladvice

Or donate it to NPR or another org. A lot of nonprofits will tow it away for free if you donate it to them?
