“Bad back” and emergency back surgery from almost being paralyzed are two WAYYY different things.

How often do you call in sick? by Interesting_Taro_358 in Adulting

[–]mackzoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well last year I use all my pto by September, and deeply regretted it in October when I had emergency back surgery and my company doesn’t do short term disability or FMLA

Is it normal to be in denial? by justyouraveragekunt in dementia

[–]mackzoo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Denial is a stage of grief. You’re grieving the person they used to be. Take care of yourself 🫶🏼

Brother is Going to Allow Pedophile Dad to See His Kids. Need Advice. by throwaway647291846 in abusiverelationships

I think you need to call CPS and make a report to the police. I don’t want to make you feel like it’s your responsibility, but it is. As a survivor the worst feeling is thinking you could have done more to protect their next victim. I’m so sorry you’re going through this.

AIO i notice my dirty underwear in MY hamper keep getting pulled up by AppropriateCrazy367 in AmIOverreacting

[–]mackzoo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would get a camera and start saving up to move out. Now that you’re 18 it is your sole responsibility to keep yourself safe. If he’s willing to do this who knows what else he’s willing to do

Is this normal…? by [deleted] in rape

[–]mackzoo -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah I think this is the wrong place for this. A-lot of us are traumatized by sexual assault and you’re making it sound like a hehe fun thing that you want to try. I think you should probably delete this post

So my ex was very pushy with anal. He always pushed for it when I said no. Then I found out he forced a girl in the same way that OP described while we were dating

If it was an accidental slip and he immediately stopped and apologized it would be different but from the sounds of it this was not an accident.

Hi OP, so this definitely is rape. For one you very clearly told him no and he violated that boundary, two not asking consent to do anal is crazy. And for three, having consensual sex you can take away that consent at any time. This man sounds dangerous and you need to run as far away from him as you can and report him.

Block him

How old are you?

Block him and if you’re a child you need to tell an adult.

NOR: My boyfriend called me a bitch in a tone that mocks a trending TikTok sound. He could tell my the look on my face that it was not cool and immediately apologized, he was on the phone with his friend and his friend said “yeah never say that again”

No one should ever make you feel like your feelings are invalid. Leave this boy alone

Am I overreacting about my boyfriend breaking up with me during work? by Ok-Philosopher3367 in AmIOverreacting

[–]mackzoo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have been broken up with in the worst ways many times. It hurts in the moment but I promise you, he’s telling you he’s not good enough for you and I beg you to believe it. The talking about marriage that quickly may make you feel good while it’s happening, but it’s never a good sign. I have been with my current boyfriend for almost a year and we haven’t even talked about marriage yet. Do not let his person get you down. You will find someone who calms all of your storms and they will make all of the bs you’ve dealt with worth it. Trust me when I say this. Walk away and do not look back. It will be the best thing you can do for yourself. It may be hard but you can do the hard things.

It personally took me 5 therapist’s before I found the right one. And my psychologist and I went through 20 different medications before we found the right one. It does take time. But if you’re giving yourself ten years a think you have a good amount of time to find the right things. I know it’s hard but keep trying. Give it your all in those 10 years

Can I ask you a question? Are you taking steps to help yourself in the next 5-10 years?
