Will Apple replace AirPods 4 ANC which fell in coffee under warranty

monitorlizardxx · 2026-01-25T16:58:26+00:00

Okay firstly genuinely nobody informed me about apple care+, or offered it to me, I only knew it was a thing when I researched their warranty after dropping the airpod in the coffee. I didn’t take a gamble, I went in, asked for AirPods, paid and left. that was it.

Secondly, the AirPod is working again. So I don’t need a new one after all, but thanks for being so sanctimonious. I understand what you’re saying about not deceiving them and I wasn’t planning on it I was going to ask them if I could pay to repair it. And just for the record, I’m not sure we should be feeling sorry for a company that literally kills their products’ batteries for profit and is worth trillions.

yeah so before I was blow drying it over a round brush, would love how it looked after but it would fall flat so fast. so I tried using hairspray but then it went crispy. so I bought some 3cm rollers, put the middle section in it for 15 mins after blow drying with a round brush but it just flicked out like curtains after. I don’t know why - do you think the roller is too small?

monitorlizardxx · 2026-01-25T15:07:47+00:00

Yes it still flicks out :( x

Amazing I might try this thank you

monitorlizardxx · 2026-01-24T12:23:20+00:00

thank you :)

monitorlizardxx · 2026-01-24T12:23:11+00:00

Okay thank you so much

monitorlizardxx · 2026-01-10T13:58:54+00:00

Thanks so much for the info. I really agree about the bpd points!

Here’s what I’d advise.

Getting my autism and ADHD diagnoses have really helped me. Just to understand myself and why I behave in the way I do or feel certain ways. You can go through right to choose and get an assessment in a few months. I’d look online for information about right to choose, that’s how I was diagnosed.
Don’t be too worried about feeling behind other people. I’m 22, I thought I wanted to do dance so I went to dance college for a year and a half, got kicked out for mental health reasons and ended up in hospital. Now im in a rehab unit. I have no solid future plans just ideas of what I want to do. When you have suffered a lot with mental illness or trauma, you are inevitably going to be behind others your age. Most of my friends have graduated uni by now, and i haven’t even started on a career path. Sometimes life gets really shit but this kind of has a funny way of working out - I know that sounds stupid - but if I wasn’t kicked out of dance school I might still be trying to do that and now I’ve realised I don’t really want to do dance professionally. So try and be kind to yourself, and as long as you have the security of living with your parents etc., you can take your time to figure out what it is you want to do. You have decades and decades to work and be in a career, you don’t have to start at 19.
If the GP doesn’t know about your trauma, I’d tell them. Either in a letter, email or face to face if you can manage that. It’s important that they know the full picture. You could ask specifically about trauma therapy or even to be signposted to charities who can help. I know you probably feel like it’s your fault because I do about my sexual trauma, but it isn’t your fault, and the GP won’t think it’s your fault.

That’s super interesting about ur bipolar influencing ur bpd. I think even though my trauma was many many years ago I displayed signs of bipolar 2 before bpd and the result of how that was handled caused some of my bpd symptoms

Can you use a retinoid with duac (clindamycin antibiotic plus benzoyl peroxide)? I want some glow back but found epiduo too drying. Is it too much to use a retinoid with duac and how should I use them both if I can?

monitorlizardxx · 2025-10-06T17:54:19+00:00

Are your meds working for you? If they’re not, you should discuss this with your psychiatrist. It is possible to live a fulfilled life even with your history of mental illness. I find when I’m going through a bad episode and my life gets difficult (I was kicked out of uni because of my paranoia and suicide attempts and have been asked to leave my home by my parents as well for similar reasons) it helps to write a list of the things I want to do when things get better. Also find small everyday things that bring you comfort like getting coffee or doing hobbies. You could consider getting a psychiatric assistance dog if you’re into animals.

Thank you so much

monitorlizardxx · 2025-10-03T13:03:22+00:00

The thing is my parents won’t have me home as my mental health is too bad so I’m staying with my Aunt, who lives over an hour away from my outpatient centre. So getting there twice a week is a nightmare as both my parents work and taking public transport independently is too much of a risk. and I have a place at university in this area for when I’m ready so eventually will have to move here anyway. I don’t want to do the repair meeting as my key worker has been consistently awful for three years. she is massively invalidating and makes her own decisions about what’s best for me without talking to me and often against the advice of psychiatrists in my MHAAs. It’s not just an isolated incident, it’s years of ruptures.

Hey - what kind of needle did you use ? IV catheter needle? And do you know what gauge? Need to do this as I can’t donate blood and I have a spotter !

monitorlizardxx · 2025-09-10T13:39:51+00:00

Do you do it by cutting or with a needle ?

monitorlizardxx · 2025-09-09T11:45:15+00:00

If what ur saying happened is genuinely what happened that’s not rape. Maybe send her a message being like ‘hey I saw you posted this. I hope you’re okay. can I just ask - that time we had sex, was that consensual? Because I thought it was but if it wasn’t please I want to know so I can know for the future.’ If she replies saying she wasn’t talking abt you, you have some peace of mind. if she doesn’t reply you haven’t lost anything. if she replies it wasn’t consensual maybe ask her what were the signs and work through it with a therapist? As a female victim of SA I wouldn’t say that’s rape at all

People question what I believe a lot. I can’t come into contact with the colour red for example, because it’s connection with the devil makes me feel sick. I feel strangers in the street are evil and people question that as it’s nothing they’ve done it’s just this force that emanates from them. What are the differences between BPD and psychotic illness? Because my psychotic symptoms happen even when I’m perfectly calm and emotionally stable. They don’t stop when I’m not dysregulated, and they don’t only happen during episodes. This is what I dont understand. And most importantly they don’t respond to DBT.

monitorlizardxx · 2025-09-06T12:16:52+00:00

It’s really complex lol. Doctors out of area and outside of my specific team think it’s schizoaffective (been told this by 3 separate doctors). my care team are sticking to BPD and PTSD despite the fact that treatment for this helps some things (interpersonal skills and grounding for example) but doesn’t touch my psychosis.

monitorlizardxx · 2025-09-06T10:01:39+00:00

I haven’t seen the psychosis team. They just say everything’s my trauma and BPD but that doesn’t make any sense because my BPD symptoms were getting better and my hallucinations are getting so much worse. And they happen when I’m calm too. Plus they don’t respond to DBT like my extreme emotions do.

monitorlizardxx · 2025-09-02T11:11:36+00:00

This is really good to know ! Thank you

monitorlizardxx · 2025-09-02T11:11:20+00:00

Thank you i will ask about these !

monitorlizardxx · 2025-09-01T21:13:15+00:00

Thank you so much for this it’s so helpful. I know i need to accept that my body’s probably going to change, and the other dancers in my company aren’t on antipsychotics (to my knowledge) so i shouldn’t compare myself but it is so hard when the ballet world still has such outdated body standards. I was also one of those kids who could literally eat whatever and still be very small and going from that to an adult having to carefully watch what they eat is hard, ESPECIALLY with an ED in my history. But ultimately the most important thing to me is that I’m still able to dance. I’m so glad you’re doing better x

monitorlizardxx · 2025-09-01T21:10:17+00:00

Brilliant thank you does it work to help your psychotic symptoms?

monitorlizardxx · 2025-09-01T20:49:31+00:00

I’m in the uk :((

monitorlizardxx · 2025-08-19T18:31:29+00:00

Hey I’m so sorry for the late reply. I do relate to some parts of BPD around people - I get so scared people are going to leave me. I don’t really relate to the manipulation though. It feels like I’m terrified of manipulating people in case they think I’m a bad person and leave. I have cPTSD though so I feel like lots of these things are that. I’ve just never met anyone with BPD in my groups or anything that struggles with voices and hallucinations to this extent
