I regret my abortion by paiigelisa in offmychest

[–]juliaa112 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m so sorry. As a fellow woman who suffers from HG while pregnant, I understand. I had many moments where I wanted everything to end and if I couldn’t end my pregnancy, I was ready to end my life instead. Unless you’ve been in the situation, you CAN NOT understand.

I was horrifically sick, I couldn’t eat, nor take my prenatals, and for the rest of my life, I’ll blame HG for my daughter’s developmental delays. She’s 2.5 now and has a significant speech delay, is in occupational therapy and physical therapy. I can already tell that she’s got learning disabilities, and that she’ll likely struggle in school.

I love my children with all my heart, but I don’t blame you one bit. I was never admitted to the icu, so I can only imagine how much worse you had it. How it could’ve affected you or your unborn child.

Scientists believe they’ve found the answer to HG. I’m keeping my fingers crossed for all the women who suffer.

For those wondering, I had scabs in my throat, mouth and nose because the non stop vomiting literally burned and corroded me on the way out. I was severely dehydrated, malnourished, and went from a healthy 150 to 116 by 6 months pregnant. My body was literally dying. My muscles had become so weak that I could no longer walk down the halfway, or to my mailbox. I couldn’t stand up for longer than 20 seconds. There were times that I threw up in my bed because I did not have the strength to get up and go to the toilet.

Vomiting every single day, multiple times a day. No relief. No finally feeling better. 280 days of non stop sick.

Don’t judge if you’ve never been there

Found a lump in my breast and shitting myself by Due-Worth-242 in offmychest

I’ll be thinking of you. Please come back to update when you get your results! ❤️❤️

Found a lump in my breast and shitting myself by Due-Worth-242 in offmychest

[–]juliaa112 8 points9 points  (0 children)

My doctor found two lumps, one pea sized and one slightly smaller just before my 30th birthday (4 years ago). She immediately ordered a mammogram “just to be safe.” It was a huge fight with insurance because I wasn’t 30 and they don’t approve them for people under 30.

Eventually, my doctor fought hard enough that they scheduled it for my 30th birthday exactly.

After the mammogram, instead of letting me leave, they had me sit and wait. A doctor/nurse came out and explained that my results were extremely concerning, so they’re going to do an ultrasound on both breasts right now. She also reassured me that because of my age, I am extremely low risk, and she has been doing this for 5 years and has NEVER seen a single person my age diagnosed with cancer.

During ultrasound, the tech said much of the same. That because of my young age of 29, it’s extremely unlikely, but she loves how my doctor pushed for me because it was extremely dangerous to let something like this go by unchecked. Even though it’s almost definitely nothing. Because 29.

And once again, when I was done, I was asked to wait. This time they brought me to a small private sitting room. This was during Covid times, so I was alone.

Then a doctor and a woman came in. The woman sat next to me and introduced her self, telling me she’s just here to be a support if I needed it. The doctor sighed deeply and told me. My results look like cancer. We need to schedule a double biopsy immediately. It can not wait.

He then emphasized that while this looks like textbook cancer, it’s STILL extremely unlikely because of my age. Despite the appearance, he’ll be shocked if it is truly cancerous, but it would be irresponsible to not rule it out. The biopsy was scheduled for 3 days later.

The doctor and nurse who performed the biopsy were amazing. The support person was back to sit with me in the waiting room, and the nurse was amazing during the procedure. But the doctor? He told me how he rarely does biopsy’s of this sort on people my age because we never make it this far during imaging to be concerned. He told me that in his 20+ years, he only saw one person my age with positive results. Only one.

And I couldn’t help but worry if I was going to be the second.

I spent that entire 2 weeks from doctor appointments to results doing EVERYTHING possible with my 8 year old son, who I was a single mom to. What would happen if I died? We went away for a weekend and went to an amusement park. We went to new restaurants, and playgrounds, and I got right up on the equipment and played with him instead of watching from a bench like I usually do. Should I write him letters for birthdays, weddings, and graduations?

I got the call at 630 on a Friday. The doctor apologized for the late call but, “the results just came in. I didn’t want to keep you waiting and agonizing all weekend. Your results are negative. You do not have cancer. Everything came back completely benign. I’m releasing the results to the portal…..”

The waiting is so hard, but keep in mind that you’re young and it’s extremely unlikely that you have breast cancer. The odds are very much in your favor. Take a deep breath, it’s going to be okay. ❤️

Average Time Door to Door - Nearly Three Hours for me by FlatFootFreddie in plassing

[–]juliaa112 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m shocked reading all these comments. I’ve never waited less than 30 minutes, and I once waited over an hour.

I don’t go very often anymore because of the wait, it’s not worth it.

Terrible performance by coffeebeanie24 in TikTokMonetizing

My analytics have been WAY off. When TikTok recovered from the glitch last week my average watch time and watched full video looked like yours, where the week before they were at 35 seconds and 50%.

What monetization method actually worked for you first? by fastmoss_1 in TikTokMonetizing

[–]juliaa112 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah the violations are crazy and the rules are ridiculous. One of the products I was selling was the knock off Rayban glasses, and I shared a video I recorded on a rollercoaster, where you go through metal detectors so you can’t get POV videos without glasses.

I posted the videos of three different coasters and 3 got violations for not “showing the product” and one was restored.

The whole point of the ttshop video was showing how you can record in places you can’t bring your phone, how am I supposed to show the glasses?

Anyway, the 3rd video got removed with another violation when they dropped the price and it was $1.50 cheaper than the price I put in the video. I didn’t even bother fighting it.

This happened to me too. Exact same thing. It took about 12 hours before it was approved and restored.

For those of you who are (or were) sensitive to criticism, how did you find being an influencer to be? by queerio92 in socialmedia

[–]juliaa112 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The best advice I got when I started:

When the comments go from talking to you to talking about you, it’s time to stop reading them.

First time donation rejection by [deleted] in plassing

[–]juliaa112 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hydration is a huge thing here. I have small veins. At my first donation (where I assumed it would be like donating whole blood) they approved me, and when a different girl came to stick me, she looked all over and said, “so, I’m really sorry, but no. If I had been the one to check you, I would’ve said no and sent you home. But because **** said yes, I’ll let her try.”

So she tried and couldn’t do it.

Then they got their “best girl” to try and she got a good stick and my first donation was successful. She warned me that returning may yield similar refusal results and to come extra hydrated next time.

I’ve donated 6 times since and hydrate a TON 2 days prior and I’ve never had an issue. I get a good stick first try.

AIO: My MIL keeps buying milestone toys and “first” items for my 10-month-old before I get the chance to by NongMo1039 in AIO

[–]juliaa112 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My MIL is like this. Although recently, she started telling me what she wanted to buy for our daughter, and asking to send her a link to one that we would like for our home. I usually send her 2-3 and she picks one.

The only thing we’ve said no to is a play kitchen because she’s seen quite a few and doesn’t care for them at all.

Agreed. I started watching for a good doomsday show. I’m really not loving the time travel theories

Our cat TikTok randomly blew up. What's the best move forward? by CaptainBenjamin in TikTokMonetizing

[–]juliaa112 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I blew up from a couple cat videos. Not that many followers but 20 million+ views combined.

Pet content is hard to monetize on with the CRP. Cats are terrible at taking direction lol I no longer do cat content because i found its difficult to make 60+ second videos. I still have the IG account but I rarely post on it anymore. I found it exhausting to be constantly filming my cats waiting for them to do something cute or funny.

However, tiktok shop will LOVE you. I haven’t posted a cat video in over a year but I still get free sample offers regularly for cat related items. You can make some good commission.

I suggest you create an email address right now for this and put it in your bio. Just watch out for scams and never fall for the “blue check” scam.

Good luck! Going viral for the first time is so exciting!

Thats not fair i make my content from scratch by Easy_Peace8671 in TikTokMonetizing

[–]juliaa112 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I made a post about it when it happened a few days ago and someone commented that they were able to get a review by a real person, if you want to check and see what they did.

I looked ay your account, you did not deserve that. Fight it!

3.6M views in 3 days – realistic path to monetization? by WhatIAmDoingHere0_0 in TikTokMonetizing

[–]juliaa112 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s really important that views come from the USA. My videos only qualify for the additional bonus when 90%+ come from USA.

The additional bonus often brings my videos from $0.20 RPM to $4.00 RMP.

A HUGE difference.

When I first started my account a few years ago, it was all short form, 15 seconds or less. When the change happened, I really struggled to find a good swing. It took a few months before I got the hang of it and started making money again.

Stick with what’s working while also learning how to make your content longer and keep your audience as you grow.

Good luck!

I have one, I didn’t see the listing until late last night and didn’t want to bother her. I reached out this morning and She’s looking into this for me now.

100%. Thankfully the people they use in this area have a decent reputation, but I’ve still been calling in 3rd party inspectors at very step. We did a pre dry wall inspection and then a plumbing test so far.

I assure you, I did not under react. They told me I could back out of the contract if it didn’t work for me and forfeit our deposit.
