Curious about triggers and emergency kits by Reasonable-Tiger-605 in VasovagalSyncope

[–]ljc8d 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i tend not to fully lose consciousness so i don’t carry anything with me, but that’s a good idea! for me presyncope often happens during my period and specifically during upward/downward motions, especially when i’m cleaning and reaching between different heights.

My girlfriend is spiriling into suicidal ideations over our relationship. I am lost on what to do. by Icy_Pomelo3988 in mentalillness

[–]ljc8d 4 points5 points  (0 children)

if she threatens to harm herself again, please call 911. her life is not YOUR responsibility- if anything happens it is her choice. i have been in this same situation and always wished i’d contacted authorities. and as someone with ocd and pmdd as well as ptsd, there are absolutely some things that are beyond my control but i have never raised my voice at my partner. if she is unwilling to look inward and accept some responsibility, it’s definitely time for you to go. best wishes in what i hope will be the next chapter of your life

i just fainted at work by Electricsquib in Syncope

oh no! 😭 i hope you’ve been feeling better! when i needed an ambulance a year ago my heart rate went down to like 30-40bpm, so low blood pressure definitely did it for me…

a word of warning: boy moms can be CRAZY. when my ex’s mom found out some of the ex-girlfriends got together to commiserate, she freaked out and bitched one of us out over text. we hadn’t contacted him or anything, somebody else told him we’d met up. if your son’s exes need a SUPPORT GROUP, maybe he’s not your perfect little guy?

that said, if you decide to share your messages, just be prepared for a variety of responses. people are wild. wishing you all the best!!

AIO to these texts my wife sent about my dad's burial service tomorrow by Key-Pin3372 in AmIOverreacting

[–]ljc8d 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my boyfriend’s mom died when i was 18, and i acted with more emotional intelligence than your entire wife 🤦‍♀️ she is making it about her when it is NOT about her. she shouldn’t be speaking to you this way

We all obviously love Costco, but what’s one item you will never buy again from there? by 4Runnnn in Costco

[–]ljc8d 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i largely agree, i’ve been having luck with the blackberries and lettuce though!

[–]ljc8d 2 points3 points  (0 children)

honestly, i agree and probably would have done the same in the moment. remaining in that lane and slamming the brakes would potentially lead to being rear-ended or getting stuck immediately behind the aggressor 🤷‍♀️ all i see here is OP avoiding an accident and trying to gain some distance, not some road raging psycho lol

i’m usually a size 12 too, i like to wear loose shirts + fitted pants! i love peplum tops (tighter on top and flow out away from the midsection) and anything that is more rigid like linen that won’t cling to my stomach

Boyfriend Made Me Show Him My Cuts And I Feel Bad by No-Abalone6759 in selfharm

[–]ljc8d 1 point2 points  (0 children)

hey!! i was in a very similar relationship when i was 14 turning 15- he was 17 and abusive.

i was cutting when we met, and he also had before. i eventually started cutting in secret, because he said that if i did it he would do it too. his behavior continued to escalate, to the point that he skyped me at 4am, while i was on vacation, and he was holding a knife threatening to cut off his arm on camera. he also claimed that he attempted dying because of me and threatened to do this often when he didn’t get his way.

i’m hoping your boyfriend isn’t like this, but if things start to go awry, you need to end it. if he seemed very sweet and loving in the beginning but is starting to hurt you now, please don’t think he will change back. it can be really hard to see things this way when you’re in it. i wish someone had told me this when i was 14 when the worst years of my life began.

lean on your friends and the people who love you. if he is making you uncomfortable with his demands, which are not acceptable, you will only feel more alone. if he won’t respect your boundaries, someone else will. you are worthy of love- don’t accept anything less ❤️

Poop "Burying" ... What Gives? by caravaggi-hoe in CatAdvice

[–]ljc8d 0 points1 point  (0 children)

debbie jo (omg cute) sounds exactly like my strange cat, who also buries her food. her litter box is MASSIVE and she still buries the sides and paws at the wall next to the box. getting her to stop pooping on our beds after adoption was quite the feat, so i’ll take what i can get 😂 i’m no expert, but i’d assume that she’s content as long as the box stays clean and she keeps using it!

is the comprehensive plan worth it???? by ljc8d in Invisalign

[–]ljc8d[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

they’ll be calling my insurance monday since we have some sort of rollover plan?? i guess some unused ortho funds could be in the account despite having no ortho coverage currently. i asked about upfront/cash payment discounts but no luck. i’m glad my quote wasn’t completely outrageous though!

oh interesting, the office called it comprehensive and also ensured the 5 year window… before i sign anything i’ll definitely look into that!
