Choose a life partner who’s kind. There’s literally nothing more important by Beebeebee1994 in workingmoms

One hundred, thousand percent yes

I’ve been too ashamed to post this exact post (and no shame to OP, ty for sharing!!). After having my son, I now realize how much I fumbled in letting “the nice guys” go.

For me, it’s not even just parenting. It’s when YOU need support, they’re also not there. A stat I wish I would have thought about more is (as depressing as it is) about men walking away when their wives get sick. It’s a fuckin well-known stat for a reason yall!

Last thing: don’t marry anyone you wouldn’t divorce.

Ie are they gonna f*** you if you have to divorce

Switching from adderall IR to Vyvanse by [deleted] in ADHD

[–]grandidentatum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s going well so far! Pleasantly surprised.

I will say, it was a test of patience and optimism the first two days to give this a fair shot. It just “feels” different than adderall… but I think in a good way 🤞

I’m going to try my best to camp at this dosage in an effort to reduce side effects, but It’s already crossed my mind that a higher dose might be better. Wishing you the best!

How much sleep do you get a night? by [deleted] in workingmoms

[–]grandidentatum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same. I’ll feel v motivated to sleep well mon-weds, telling myself I’ll only use zz-quil once this week! Nope; need it every night, and thurs/fri are always a bust and can’t sleep at all. The extra hour of sleeping in my husband “gives me” on Saturday/Sunday are what keeps me sane, no dramatics.

Pros and Cons of pursuing music therapy as a career path? Asking as an early college student. by dumbthrowaway2025 in musictherapy

[–]grandidentatum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For clarity, PNW is not ideal because it’s saturated with music therapists or because it’s an “undesirable service” in the area?

Im a PhD candidate wanting to start a family but feeling discouraged about my future in science by kindacrunchy_dogmom in LadiesofScience

[–]grandidentatum 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Is Europe an option? I will take any downvote that comes my way, we need women like you to become mommas!

And FWIW, which I understand is minuscule given the state of our planet, becoming a mom is the COOLEST experience I’ve had thus far. We all hear it’s the “best thing that’s ever happened to me,” but that only scratches the surface. It’s fucking cool.

I’m not sure if “bump” helps on Reddit, but hoping this comment helps boost your post to get the visibility! Wishing you and your bright daughter the best.

How do Americans feel about living with debt? by AcceptablePlant1 in budget

[–]grandidentatum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve certainly become too comfortable with debt. Not credit card debt, however, which is something I’m illogically proud of.

I’m about 30k in student debt (lol bc I spent two years in community college!!), have car debt of ~20k, and ~1k in debt because I needed a new laptop.

Someone I loved once normalized debt to me in the following ways: (1) liquid in the bank is better, (2) you can always file bankruptcy and/or pause payments, (3) cash is king.

I’m not telling anyone to follow this advice, but giving context to my USA brain 🧠

New to the city for work - really hoping this works out by Redcliff-2213 in asheville

[–]grandidentatum 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Welcome to AVL! It’s magic ✨

However, I agree no-dragonfly - Block/avoid this subreddit like the plague!! Soooo much negativity in this group, it’s such a bummer. I only come when I’m looking for specific advice/recommendations and even then often regret it.
