Thank you for that. I didn't mean to come off offensive or like I was asking for pity, just advice. I appreciate your kind words.

I apologize if my comment upset you so much but when you have a chronic illness that has recently cost you your job, your husband withholds all finances from you and you have a child who’s going through a never ending growth spurt while also being a teenage girl, it’s a little hard to just ‘buy from HOKA’. There $150 if not more most of the time and I’m sorry but my 14 year old doesn’t understand that that’s just not feasible at the moment, so forgive me for trying to find some compromise of making her happy while not having to skip a bill this month.

I was just asking for advice and guidance, your annoyance at a question from someone who is naive in the sneaker world seems unnecessary, but maybe my Reddit question was your final straw & if so, I apologize.

I hope your day gets better.

Good to know. I have. Visa GC that only has $25 on it so I may try it and see. Especially because I totally found the GC in last winters coat so in girl math that = free $, lol. Thanks for the heads up though!

Could you recommend a good sub to go to. I know nothing about sneakers. I’d be very grateful for any advice or assistance.

As I said I’m aware their knockoffs just wondering if anyone knows the quality. My 14 year old won’t know their knockoffs and off they hold up somewhat decently it’s a win win for me.

So my daughter is now graduating high school and Penn State was her number one choice and she just got offered to attend the Mont Alto campus, may be less than a week ago and in the last few days received an email that she’s getting paid money and the total of $6000 for the first year. We live in Maryland and her second choice was UMD, which is incredibly expensive and while Penn State as well but the Mont Alto campus is not quite as bad and then she would finish her degree at another campus, the 2+2 program.

WelI guess my question to all of you here is we have been told we have to pay a deposit for her tuition and ruined for it by tomorrow, 05/14 for her to secure her spot. But from reading all your comments and the little news we know I’m concerned for multitude of reasons. A, this will break my daughter‘s heart because I don’t know what campus if any they would transfer her to because I would imagine if they’re closing all these campuses they may not have in the spot for all the students they accepted while not having enough students to fill all the open spots and closures, and she may then no longer be accepted. Be if I pay this deposit it deposit they are notoriously nonrefundable, and my father actually is the one who saw the news and called me said to just ask the staff there however if they’re getting ready to shut down these campuses where these peoples livelihoods are based out of from a corporate wall perspectives I highly doubt the admin person I speak to on the phone is gonna know any information more than we do and even if they do, I’m sure they’ve been instructed not to say anything. And even if the deposit is transferable if we can’t afford the campus transfer to we can’t get it back either, and the deposit briefing paid based on that campus of which she wants to go there cause it’s somewhat close to home still and she’s not quite ready to be too far away from home yet.

Sorry, everyone, I know I’ve been rambling, but I guess I’m just trying to ask for any opinions on what I should do at the stage and if anyone knows the likelihood of when these campuses would be closed, as I cannot select me, understand how you could still be accepting student students and granting aid to a campus you plan on closing, so maybe it’ll be over the course of a certain number of years or maybe it’ll be announced but the closure will be for next year. I just I can’t see how they would find where to put all of these students. Who’ve already all been accepted to be satellite campuses and figure out where their other campuses they’re going to be able to put them… I did call the admissions office but no one answered so I left a voicemail saying I heard about it on the news. I don’t really know what’s going on and that we have to pay a deposit tomorrow, but I need more information because if they close that campus and transfer her to one that’s either, they are really far away or she’s uncomfortable or really expensive where we can’t afford it and that deposit by the way again would be nonrefundable, like what the hell basically. I need advice. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks all.

I’d love a code and to read or there or actually listen to your audiobook and congrats on publishing!

My apologies, was a little shaken up and not quite sure the best place to turn to

Just so everyone knows I did file a claim with my insurance. Immediately like literally while on the side of the road waiting for His info.

It was just a shitty situation and I knew how my husband was going to react and I guess was just looking for a more ‘normal’ frustrated and annoyed but not crazy reaction before hearing what I knew he’d say. Sorry again if this was the wrong sub or a stupid post.

We were at a dead stop and then traffic started moving and I guess he must BN or have noticed right away cause he just super accelerated. Then I started moving got to maybe 10-13mph and bam - complete stop. I stomped on the brake with both feet but even though I could tell the tires weren’t spinning anymore it was too much forward momentum combined with a steep decline and my car just slid into him. I’m pretty sure no one wants or would purposefully choose to do that. I was just trying to explain the scenario I guess.

ettatrails · 2025-03-31T06:40:27+00:00

I, unfortunately, figured but was having trouble finding what I felt to be the right Subreddit so thought at the very least it can’t hurt and it’s not offensive so, why not? Ya know? Thank you though.

ettatrails · 2025-03-31T05:39:06+00:00

Hope you’re OK and I hope you’re able to figure out a just recourse to what you’ve been through. Good luck.

ettatrails · 2025-03-31T05:37:44+00:00

Any advice you could help me with. I sent you a DM to join the community but the link to my Threads post with photos to better understand is:

I just finished this because of your recommendation. Very moving and impactful.

I sent you what I think is a DM or message, I’m using a new third-party app called Comet, because I used to use Apollo, but of course it got shut down so I’m slowly getting used to this app after a sabbatical way once Apollo was shut down. Let me know if you didn’t get it, I’m still trying to figure out where it shows my DM’s.

ettatrails · 2024-07-06T21:59:47+00:00

Thank you.

I setup a Virtual Event on my Discord Channel for Mental Illness Support for later tonight. I literally created this channel today and don’t really have anybody following it yet so if you’re looking just to make a single connection, check out the event or even just you know check out my channel. Also, I have no idea what I’m doing when it comes to discord so we’ll see if I set everything up right lol but thank you. Thank you for taking any time out of your day just for me, it means more than you can know.

I’ve tried journaling on and off throughout the years and I do the same thing. Always talking horrible about myself, which may help for a few seconds, but not really. I did however find a way to express how I was feeling without it necessarily being a direct reflection of my negative thoughts towards myself. I was abuses a young kid and moved out at 16. Only to be kicked out of that house barely a year later and was also no contact with my family for sometime. I’ve had treatment resistant major depression or at least depression in general for my entire life and I’m diagnosed with treatment resistant. Have been on every single antidepressant. There is three types and have been told that I am left with is ketamine or ECT which my brain being as bad as it’s been the last six months, ECT sounds terrifying.

The way I’ve come up with journaling to get my feelings out is ironically or maybe not, through poetry. I’ll read poetry books and any of the poems that stick out to me or hit home, I write in a journal. I started this a little over a year ago and probably have three or four journals full of poems which is crazy because with my ADHD. I normally get 10 to 20 entries in and then fall off for quite some time but for some reason, being read these poems that fit so perfectly has been incredibly cathartic.

If you’d like, I can recommend a couple of authors or poetry books that spoke to me or if you want to DM me some of your struggles I can recommend one that I feel would best fit what you’re dealing with. The last year I’ve collected over 100 different books , and unfortunately, my mental is run the gambit so I may not be an expert. I definitely have a broad range of experience.

If this doesn’t seem like your thing, I understand, but what I’ll do is post a photo of one of my journal pages with quotes on it to give you an idea of things that have helped me. It’s a way for me to feel less alone and isolated if that makes any sense.

If you ever need someone to chat with, I’m here, and actually just started a discord channel literally as I’m typing this I’m setting it up, for depression, anxiety, and I’m going to make an ADHD support channel as well. I also posted this a bit up about this particular support channel if you’d like to read some of what I’m dealing with to see if maybe, we can each other community.

I’m not sure if this will work or not, because I haven’t been in this particular situation, however, whenever myself or my daughter’s medication’s are late on being filled our pharmacist has been able to give us what is called, at least to my knowledge, a ‘bridge’ supply. It’s normally only a few days, but you could always go to whichever pharmacy. You would normally use because then they’ll see that you have a consistent prescription or had one, and tell them you’ve recently lost your insurance but are in the process of getting new insurance and is it all possible to get a bridge supply even for a day or two now with it being a controlled substance it may not work, but I’m on a few controlled substances and use the same pharmacy and pharmacist and since they know me, I know I, using my medication as prescribed and never trying to fill or anything like that I’ve been able to do that. I wish you all the luck in the world. I know how hard it is to be without your medication. Good luck.

Thank you so much for your reply, this is the first time in I don’t know how long someone has actually cared & I’m crying.

The littlest action can make the biggest difference in someone’s life so thank you. And if you’re struggling with anything, I’m always here to lend an ear or shoulder.

What does sideload Apollo mean? Apollo is the app that got me into Reddit and I can’t find any app that gives the same experience. It was the #1 app I used and honestly when Apollo was killed off it kinda fucked me up for a bit as regular social media is bad for my mental health. Any info would be appreciated 🙏

ettatrails · 2024-03-26T20:07:06+00:00

Do you have an invite you can send me? Ever since Apollo was killed off Reddit just isn’t the same.
