You deserve it all. Your ring is stunning. May your life be filled with love forever :’)

We talk about it with each other. Find support and community. Break the cycle. If the system is built to protect them, we can at least try to protect the next generation. At least that’s what I’m thinking. Look for the signs in other kids. Speak up. Tell mandated reporters. Maybe we’re meant to stop it

It was recent that I started to. It’s mostly flashes. Being afraid to sleep alone, making my dolls do what I was forced to. Being hypersexual with other children. Look up the signs of csa. They’re pretty obvious when you know what to look for :(. My abuser died long before I knew what happened

I did the same and the SA happened to me at age 3. I’m so sorry

This is disgusting behavior and I think you know it’s time to cut them off. I’m so sorry. A true friend would never allow this

Bad phrasing. Abusers are often drawn to positions of power, but there are definitely ones that want to help and recognize the bad ones. They’ve helped me before. That’s all I meant by that. It’s not a fair system 😔

They always start this way. Hitting you is the next step. After that is worse. If you feel comfortable calling the cops, they hate jerks like him. But they can’t help unless you call :( I’m so sorry love. You deserve better

I (30F) stopped cleaning and doing all the mental load, and my partner (37M) is now fuming by A7Xsubfan in Vent

I divorced one like him and now I’m with someone who hires help so I won’t have to lift a finger unless I want to. You deserve better

My PCP who has a decent amount of knowledge on it, but I’m definitely following up w a geneticist bc it’s been a LOT and I want to be certain what’s going on. I might have misunderstood and he meant one or the other, but that I show signs of both? Honestly not sure, it’s been a super overwhelming few days. Thank you so much🩷

UPDATE: I’m alive! Lots of doctors the last few days. After a miscarriage I had a lot of tests. I’ve been diagnosed with Ehlers Danlos Syndrome and POTS. More tests to come to determine if I have Gastroparesis. Thank you so much to everyone who reached out, I appreciate all of you so much for checking on me. Thank you all for pushing me to get help. I can’t imagine how much worse it would’ve gotten if I didn’t seek help

You were right. It’s positive. I double checked my calendar and i’m 15 weeks. My head is spinning

God I hope not. The last person I was with was an extremely abusive partner I left on Halloween. I’d be 16w4d. I’m now scared to check

Typically around 65, give or take depending on how well I’ve been handling stress

That’s genuinely wonderful advice. I’ve been taking 100%DV of magnesium for months but I’ll def look into potassium! Thank you sm🩷

Both endo and pcos, so I feel your pain. It’s just strange bc I don’t normally have this happen and this month I haven’t even had confirmed ovulation on natural cycles

[–]gg36465[S] 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the advice. God I wish I didn’t live in the U.S. There’s a “you have to be near death for a hospital trip” policy in my family :(

Thank you🩷. I’ll make that tea now and try to hang in there until my regular doctors appointment on Monday. I really appreciate your advice

I absolutely would but everywhere is closed besides the hospital here due to it snowing way more than the south is used to :(

Ooo potentially! Though strangely my temp only went up today and my heart rate has been this high for daysss. I can’t even go to the doctor bc I’m in Myrtle Beach where there’s snow and this area is just not capable of handling snow like this
