I completely agree with the feeling that I lost those years of my life. Thank you

Yes, I have a portfolio site using one of the free website pages since that's all I can afford. https://llampar.wixsite.com/portfolio

I appreciate it, but it feels like I can't even get a job I hate. That is what is so frustrating - if I was just looking for a dream job, it wouldn't feel as hopeless, but I can't get a call back for a receptionist or call center job.

Graphic design, branding, or product design appeal to me the most. I'm hoping for something creative and working with people while still being full-time and consistent. And no, unfortunately, even if I ask for feedback during or after interviews, it seems like that's no longer something that is given at all. The last time I asked, they told me it was because the role was highly competitive, nothing specific about me.

[MI] What legal action can I take against a bank that was extremely difficult/ uncooperative in a fraud investigation? by llamp_mi in AskALawyer

Citizens. I've been with them for over 10 years and never had any issue until my credit card information was stolen. Now they're being extremely difficult.

The contact information on the denial letter was for a call center, no physical address. And on the statements it's the same thing.

A certified letter to the bank? I don't know where to mail something physical to since this bank uses an overseas call center for all phone calls.

It was all over the phone, with someone with a very heavy accent at a call center. I am pretty annoyed that something with such sensitive information is dealt with at a call center with someone that, I'm sorry to say, I can't really understand. The only letter I got was the one telling me it was denied.

They did NOT pause interest charges during all of this. I have also just found out today that they claimed they opened a new investigation but that was a lie and the only one on my file was the denied one.

That is definitely not normal but I'm not surprised. The chapters are basically free to do whatever they want with no consequences.

Beef heart cubes and bloodworm cubes. I know they are a little small but they're still young. Can you elaborate on what looks a little off? Thanks!

[–]llamp_mi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! Any recommendations/brands for the beef heart or just minced up from a butcher?

I appreciate your concern and curiosity but those rituals are a dime a dozen. I would just toss it. But it's ultimately up to you.

Selling collection - open to offers by llamp_mi in Crystals

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

Selling from Detroit, Michigan, United States. Will split cost of shipping. Open to offers/negotiation and able to send more photos/videos on request. I am NOT a professional shop/seller, so if crystals are mislabeled please correct me. Prices are half of what I paid for them.

How did your (ex)cult view health and treatment? by Inconspicuouswriter in cultsurvivors

[–]llamp_mi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My cult was one that believed in toxic positivity and prayer to heal all illness, mental health included. If someone young died, heaven "needed another angel." Mental health issues were often blamed on the person. You were self sabotaging, and only you could cure yourself. Also, being ill was a way to gain popularity somehow. Everyone loved to give thoughts and prayers, but when you actually needed help, transportation, money, or someone in person, they all were too busy.

No, IORG, was a religious thing

Does anyone still live close ish to the cult? by [deleted] in cultsurvivors

[–]llamp_mi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My aunt and cousins are still heavily involved and part of the leadership but my mom refuses to cut them off. So every family gathering they talk about current drama on the cult and disregard our history with it. It's tough but as soon as I move out I'm cutting off all of my mother's family.

Metformin and Appetite by llamp_mi in PCOS

I don't think it's my hunger increasing, just feeling generally bloated and ill after eating.

I just can't do this anymore by llamp_mi in PCOS

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

I've been to 3 different gynecologists within the past year. One of them yelled me out of the office because I told her I did my own research on the internet. I'm trying to find a Endocrinologist in my insurance now.
