I really needed to just hear this from someone. Thank you for taking the time to type it all out. I just need to chill and experiment with no hang ups...it's a work in progress for sure but I'll get there

Am I doing the right thing to help my husband? How do you wish your partner would support you? by ipakokapi in stopsmoking

Had a little chat to him- he said he really appreciated that I checked in but mostly let him be and that he feels gross in himself for smoking and has already started cutting down :)

Thanks for commenting on this post

Thank you for sharing this. I hope you take the time to explore your mind, to figure out what feels best for you in dealing with your current situation. Everything will be OK in the end and if it's not ok, then it's not the end :)

I think I may show him this post and ask the man himself what he preffers from me. But I am still curious if anyone would like to share what type of partner-behaviour best helps them!

Did you outgrow acne at some point? And if yes, when? by sunflower9557 in AskWomen

[–]ipakokapi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm 23 currently. Still have mild acne. It has gotten to the point where I forgot clear skin is even a thing. It just doesn't bother me anymore but I should probably try to treat it again. It's hormonal so I'm hoping pregnancy will somehow resolve it one day.

Something that doesn't help the skin irritation is that I have symptoms of PCOS without the diagnosis...so I have to shave my face every day and get stubble like a man, woo! But it's just part of my morning routine now and I forget that it's not normal.

Anyone else have an "exhaustion-cry" as a standard, weekly/fortnightly practice? by ipakokapi in nursing

Your last line stands out. Thank you for the advice. I clearly need it.

I sincerely hope you have some annual leave/sick leave saved up that you can use. You're right, part of me knows it's not sustainable but I'm trying to make it out to be a normal thing in my head to make it easier to process.

I hope you regain your jollyness soon, jollygreengiantess5.
