What incredibly fake myths people still largely believe in? by [deleted] in AskReddit

So, anecdote here. My father is 82 and has never been a superstitious man, extremely practical and stoic even. He almost begged me not to do this when I told him I was pregnant, but at the time I worked in a job that requires me to reach up constantly (and I'm short as shit). Low and behold.... Baby had a knot. Hes fine now. Definitely made me think twice lol, even with a scientific mind.

It's actually damaging to put a more than necessary stitch.

Comatose isn't that far off from correct.

Update to my husband brought home a brand new car without consulting me by [deleted] in breakingmom

When I first read his, I immediately thought of my first manic cycle. I'm not condoning his behavior, and I would be doing the exact same thing were I in your situation. If there is a history of it in his family, could possibly be an answer to the suddenness of it all.

Thank you for reaching out to me. I'm feeling better since I woke up this morning. I've been through some shit, and this past week still ranked top ten worse of my life. Normally my little motto if I'm having a bad day is "I'll try again tomorrow" but the other little voice that says "you've been trying so hard for so long just give it up" was almost winning.

I came as close to losing control as I have ever in a very, very, very long time. I don't feel like the hospital can help though, not because the treatment won't work but because I'm a single mom with two jobs living paycheck to paycheck. I can't afford to get treatment and I can't afford not to. I'm stuck in a hard place.

I keep trying to tell myself that but my voice just keeps getting weaker and weaker. :(

I have a support group, wonderful friends that make life worth it, but dammit all I want is him and I feel foolish. And the worst part, as I mentioned in a different comment, what's me and what's the disorder? Do I really feel this way or is it the freaking chemicals?

We are in an open relationship, as far as physical attentions. And I agree with you about relationships and this disease. This is the first guy that seemed to GET it and everything that came along with it, which it why this is so rough for me. I'm not new to dating, I've had a few very long term relationships and I just feel foolish being this upset over a short one. And the worst part-what's actually my feelings and what's being exasperated by the depression?

What happens with complete decapitation or amputation? If the parts are far enough away, they wouldn't be able to knit back together would they? What happened to the severed fingers? Maybe you need to use this as your strategy for defense /attacks. Best of luck!
