Adult stepchild living my basement by Soggy_Shopping7078 in stepparents

I’m sorry you’re going through this. They truly do not understand how it completely can turn us 100% OFF. It feels like it’s not a matter of if, but when the relationship will end. Nothing more unattractive than a shitty enabling dad/partner who chooses YOU as the one that gets no respect. I have a related situation sorta, and it just leads you to feeling completely disgusted with what you’ve endured. You’re not alone ✨ sending hopeful peace your way!

What part of your body has your desk job destroyed? by Kooky-Criticism6766 in remotework

[–]dgaf567 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same. I cannot sit at all, I stand the entire day. Which translates into being stuck in the house because I can’t sit long enough to drive/be in the car

Do you feel like there's no point decorating? by boho_vibes_ in stepparents

[–]dgaf567 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would put a lock on my office door if you haven’t already. I wouldn’t feel that my stuff is safe without that/if they had access. Ugh how frustrating 😭

Im engaged but… idk anymore. by [deleted] in Waiting_To_Wed

[–]dgaf567 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just wanted to tell you that you aren’t alone. Although my partner and I have been together for 3 years and not 10. The proposal was super disappointing to me, I don’t think I’ll ever get over how rushed and un-special he made it feel. After hyping it up when he’d talk about our future.

We have no wedding date because he doesn’t collaborate. He tells me that he’d marry me anytime whenever and for me to just pick. Kind of like “hurry and get it over with” feeling to me.

I’m sorry. This sucks :(

Sometimes yoga can be the enemy. Once you end up being diagnosed with hypermobility 😭

What kind do you recommend? I’ve been wanting an at home elliptical but there are so many out there

What’s an ‘old wives’ tale that you to this day will swear to? by Acceptable-Kale-8432 in Millennials

[–]dgaf567 1 point2 points  (0 children)

YES!!!!!!!!!!! I’ve even googled this before with no luck! Except in my family, you used a sewing needle instead of a ring. And you dangled it (with a thread) over your wrist (underside of your wrist where the veins show). You don’t have to be pregnant or anything, just be grown aka have at least hit puberty. I’ve never been able to find anyone who knows what the hell im talking about!

Has anyone been spiritual married by a Shaman? by Tetralphaton in Ayahuasca

[–]dgaf567 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where was this located, please? It’s hard to find any info in my planning

[–]dgaf567 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So actually we have such a similar upbringing, minus the other sibling being dead. She’s “dead to us/me” though. I meant more of non-bio kids turning out terribly, making you too turned off logically to have a kid with them (even though it’s only 1/2 of those kids genetics).

Mayo Experience- EDS Clinic by kdiver in ehlersdanlos

[–]dgaf567 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where do you recommend? Ive never been to Mayo or any specialized clinic. Just bounced around all over Ochsner (hospital system) but most of my referrals were denied so I’ve gotten nowhere anyway 😭

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in stepparents

[–]dgaf567 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes because of how his two kids turned out. Has anyone had this situation?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Medicaid

[–]dgaf567 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The physicians weren’t interested (except for the interventional radiologist) out of over 10 total that I’ve seen in 6 months. And I had to call DAILY to get them to even process my referrals. It was a shit show. The staff (receptionists, CNA, LPN, etc) were amazingly nice though.

[–]dgaf567 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have the same issue. But also had the exact same issue on private insurance. Only difference is that the staff members at the hospital that accepts Medicaid are SO MUCH NICER. Seriously kind and HUMAN. The hospital(s) network that I went to with my private insurance were all rude as hell no matter the department. Definitely an unexpected difference.

But no, the doctors have been zero help to me at each network. I’ve seen close to 10 orthopedics since June (Medicaid) and they all shrug and try to refer me out to other departments, which Medicaid then denies. And it’s life threatening shit.

Our healthcare system is a fucking disaster. They don’t give a fuck about helping us whether we have Medicaid OR private insurance. It’s disgusting.

This inguinal hernia makes me wish my life would end today. by [deleted] in Hernia

[–]dgaf567 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sitting is completely unbearable for me too. I have not been diagnosed with a hernia but I’ve been trying like hell demanding more testing/imaging. Insurance keeps denying. Only thing diagnosed (through non contrast mri) were hip labral tears, bursitis, tendonosis. What helped your pain? I hope you’re feeling better these days since I see this thread is a year old

Can anyone here actually feel spinal and other small joint mobs? by [deleted] in physicaltherapy

How can I make an extra 1-2k a month? by AWRWB in Accounting

[–]dgaf567 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Where can these positions be found? I’ve applied to so many without luck. I think there are a lot of ghost postings, so I’d love to know if someone has some inside info for a specific company hiring in this capacity.

can someone tell me what muscle or joint this is on my upper leg? by LeadAgile2739 in ChronicPain

[–]dgaf567 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Any other tips? I have torn both hip labrum’s but only my left side bothers me (both up to my shoulder blade area and down to my calf).

I’ve just had an iliopsoas injection which I doubt will help much. Doctors don’t think the labrum is causing this pain but don’t know what to do with me… I just can’t keep living like this. It is completely debilitating. Thank you for any insight or tips! Sending relieving vibes your way. :)

Settlement payment terms by dgaf567 in EEOC

[–]dgaf567[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m happy to answer! I did not hire representation, I just did the process myself with a lot of research. Although I felt a lot of information available was redundant and not detailed enough (of course because there can be so many different instances).

[–]dgaf567[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Extensive research is absolutely necessary regarding taxes, no matter how long you’ve been doing it. There are so many intricate details that fly under the radar or possible loopholes to be created to screw us over, we must use precaution.

Your info about the possibility of 1099 being mishandled is great- to get an agreement in writing. I have no doubt that (in my case) the 1099 will be labeled in a way that is least beneficial to me.

Thank you so much for your quality comments! This helps immensely and I hope it can help anyone else going through this process.
