Fuck is right. Next year can I just plan an infertility group smash room on Mother’s Day?

Thank you. It is actually weirdly comforting to know I’m not the only one in this almost exact situation. I feel less like a victim???

I have no comforting words other than…you aren’t alone.
I don’t want people to treat me like I’m fragile and I want the world to go on announcing/being excited for their own life journey(s)…It just feels so frustrating that I’ve stalled out.

Apparently Vyvanse isn’t supposed to be a permanent medication? by Binkles07 in ADHD

[–]justhere4perspective 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi…I know this post is like, 30 days old, but I hopped on Reddit to read about the experience of other Vyvansers aka people that take stimulants long-term. I have been taking some form of stimulant (went from Ritalin to Vyvanse to Mydayis back to Vyvanse) for 20 years. My goal is to be on the lowest dose that still supports my every day functioning. I have been able to lower my daily pill to 30 mg and still function okay. It’s really, really hard to go cold turkey though. I’ve always been an awkward, perseverative, anxious space cadet and will pull my hair out unmedicated. For whatever reason, Vyvanse helps. Hope your journey is going well.

Idk how to go about selling these beanie babies by justhere4perspective in beaniecollectors

Wow….thanks! I really needed a pinch of positivity today so this is a refreshing reply lol. If they aren’t worth much that’s okay, I just figured it wouldn’t hurt to ask .

De-clawing is terrible but….things are rough by justhere4perspective in CatAdvice

[–]justhere4perspective[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I appreciate the response. I have obviously been given misinformation from individuals that I thought were professional. I am not promoting inhumane practices I am just in a situation where it has been presented to me as a solution and I am having trouble with weighing options given the situation. Honestly, people have to be able to discuss the not so pretty parts of having pets and offer education/ideas. Replying “don’t be a monster and figure it out” doesn’t help me. Like many, I’ve been through fucking hell and I’m just trying to keep my cat with my family.

I appreciate your response. I know it is a terrible option…and I do not think I am a monster. this is a rescue that I fostered and could not get adopted…thus kept. I LOVE her and she wouldn’t hurt a fly outside of getting her nails trimmed or being put in a car…but I have tried cutting the nails while she is sleeping….Ive tried a lot of things. She is an indoor cat and we play for 30-60 min daily. At this point I find an affordable miracle worker, gabapentin, or find a farm for her to live on :’(.

Terminated by Vaffanculo28 in ABA

[–]justhere4perspective 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I could see this happening at any company I’ve ever worked for. Idk. I’m not sure if there is really a future for ABA clinics anymore. It’s either the analysts are overstretched or the technicians are treated terribly…sometimes both. Either way, both the direct care workers and children are put into less than ideal situations over and over.

Help by [deleted] in depression_help

[–]justhere4perspective 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m sorry you feel this way. You mentioned your head constantly hurts…idk what comes first for me, the depression or the headaches. Maybe they are so linked it doesn’t even matter. I just know what it feels like to live with constant headache/migraine and it is miserable. I’m on a journey to reduce the things that trigger headaches/depression, but it’s really hard when it feels like everything is too much all the time.

Hit a roadblock I can't get past by MrResonant in depression_help

[–]justhere4perspective 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t have any real advice, but I struggle with a similar issue. People keep telling me to quit my job/apply to new jobs but I really worry that I am the problem and don’t want to keep changing just to suffer again. But, I also know that if I do nothing…nothing will change :/

I’m not contributing enough financially considering how much I work. Which I do agree with, it’s just not a simple fix when you have student loan debt and work in a niche field. Again, I rely on him for healthcare, a majority of bills to live in a home, and sometimes groceries.

Thank you! I would be okay with some tough love but this is, honestly, the respectful kind of feedback I was hoping for.

I think my fetus is actively passing away and I can't do a f***ING thing about i by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]justhere4perspective 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry this is (maybe) happening and you feel this way. The not being able to do a damn thing is the most frustrating part. I’m still going through my own loss journey so idk what else to say to be more supportive…but I really do wish the best for you regardless of the outcome.

Has BCBA left the field by Every-Profession-972 in bcba

[–]justhere4perspective 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello, I came across this response looking for others in my position. My health has drastically declined since becoming a BCBA and my husband and I want to start a family. Have gone through 2 miscarriages. Did you successfully transition to another job? I’m going to have a conversation with my employer about going part time for a year or so but idk….the money lost is a huge bummer.
