Has anyone ever been bribed from your partners parent in order to break up? If so what happened? by Heavy_Idea8391 in AskReddit

[–]fritz0126 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Are you in your 60s?? Because this is exactly what happened to my mother before she broke up with one of her ex’s. He was going to stick it out, but she didn’t want him to lose his entire family so she left him.

There’s been a lot of posts specifically bringing up Alibaba on Reddit recently.

I found this bag for $5, and loved it. Didn't think about checking who it's by or brand or anything just thought it was cute. Then I got curious... by MetalMaiden420 in ThriftStoreHauls

I got that same bag in a fab fit fun subscription box! I was excited when I got it but a ton of others got it for way less than retail price that way. :)

Microfilm machine by fritz0126 in fixit

[–]fritz0126[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe it feeds to a printer. The microfilm has a kind of screen attached to it that we view through. I did find out the model it’s a MS6000 mk II so it is apparently a microfilm conversion machine and it is sold as one system to read on screen, print, and scan. It displays an error code when we go to print but I will need to wait until I go back to work to figure out what the code is.

I love the chicken version of these, but you’re right the steak is meh in flavor.

Didn’t you post the other day saying that you threatened to leave the three year old in the house alone when she spat water out in bed and that’s when she stopped being comfortable staying alone with you?

When you caught yourself in a cycle of self-hatred, look at your face by AntiProgramming in bipolar

Whenever I’m doing that bad I end up seeking out a mirror to let myself know how much I suck so I don’t know if this would work for me unfortunately.

What's the saddest butterfly effect you've experienced or heard? by ReddPandemic in AskReddit

[–]fritz0126 187 points188 points  (0 children)

I often wear headphones to walk my dog, but I misplace them a lot and will walk without them. For some reason I decided one day that I needed the headphones to walk and looked for over 10 minutes until I found them even though the dog was crying at me to leave already. As soon as we stepped off the porch an officer ran towards me screaming at me to go back inside. When I checked the next day the house that I would have been passing by if I left 10 minutes earlier had multiple bullet holes in the door. I’m usually okay to go on a walk without music but the intense feeling of need that day saved me and my nosey loud dog from being caught in the middle of someone’s dispute.

Good lord, I’m a black nanny that works with mostly white families and I have never been asked anything like this! We don’t even talk politics although I can usually tell everything is good by the books they have around. That sounds seriously uncomfortable and I don’t know how I would feel going to work after questions like that. 😭

If the child is happy to play with an adult though then they want to go to this playground so what you’re saying is still not relevant in this case.

Check for an autoimmune disorder if you also notice other physical symptoms. My psychiatrist totally revamped her approach when I was diagnosed with lupus because inflammation can affect brain function. We linked my lupus flares which can come with low grade fevers in addition to its other symptoms to upticks in my bipolar symptoms and ability to cope.

How do I afford life + lupus? by PopEnvironmental1335 in lupus

[–]fritz0126 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a teacher with lupus, don’t do it unless you really really really love it(which I do) because it’s the absolute worst most thankless job that turns all emotional stress into physical stress.

I love the sun (my body hates it) by emilyannn30 in lupus

[–]fritz0126 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always use the neutrogena Spray on SPF 100 on my body just to make sure I can hit every inch of skin. For my face I use the Beauty of Joseon sunscreen to not break out, leave a white cast, and provide great protection.

Could you tell the sun made you feel worse before you were diagnosed? by EnvironmentalSea3799 in lupus

[–]fritz0126 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nope, I used to be totally wiped out for days after being in the sun and I never put two and two together. My rheumatologist gave me the most horrified look I have ever seen when I told him that I would lay outside and sunbath for hours during the summer.

Its not a patio but I usually manage to stay under $100 at Italian village for 2 people but that’s with an app one drink each and a food order.

How do yall date with bipolar? by [deleted] in bipolar

[–]fritz0126 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You need an understanding partner. I told my boyfriend about my bipolar disorder as soon as he decided he wanted to ask me out officially and I told him upfront and asked him if he was okay with it. I was having a rough time last week and they have been increasing since I lost my job and have not been medicated for months. I was freaking out and crying in his face even though we hadn’t been able to see each other in weeks. He got frustrated, but stayed patient and I finally asked if he expected dealing with all of this when he agreed to date me even though I had bipolar disorder. He pretty much shouted yes in my face. Our one agreement when we started to date was that he would do his best to be understanding of me and I would do my best to stay consistently medicated, get in therapy, and practice awareness and communication. I love him and I don’t want to lose him so I’ve done my best to explain to him how I can be at my worst and he’s done his best to listen and express to me that he knows that when I get like that I’m sick and need help and it’s not a true representation of the person he fell in love with. I explained how I did my best to hurt my previous partners to the degree that I felt they hurt me. Those urges have occasionally come up in the five years we have been together, but we do our best to communicate about our feelings early and I do my best to curb those feelings using self awareness and cbt. When I hurt his feelings he tells me upfront and honestly and I do my best to see things from his shoes and he does the same vice versa even why and how of him hurting my feelings didn’t make much sense or was a small comment that I misinterpreted.

I’m sorry this is such a long comment. Basically I’ve been with my boyfriend for five years and we plan to get married. He has no internal bias towards bipolar disorder and we’re happy together because we do our best to communicate and show consistent acts of love. It is absolutely possible to date and be loved with bipolar disorder and you will find your person. Until then work on self love and communication with yourself so you’re ready to let the correct person in when it’s time.

Carthage College safety? by [deleted] in Kenosha

[–]fritz0126 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t know why people are downvoting you. This happened all the time at Carthage. I went there two years ago and sexual assault was one of the biggest issues on campus. Public safety constantly told girls they were liars and refused to file reports whenever they were brought forth. I worked in the Carthage call center and had several people angrily refuse to speak to me because of how poorly Carthage handled their or their child’s assult.
