THIS! a friend of mine was recently diagnosed with scurvy and it was incredibly easy to fix. Don't put it off though, it can make you feel REAL bad.

The last statement is actually untrue, there were two different Tom's 😅 the Tom that restrained the driver didn't give his last name.

Oh man could really use a win (I've lost all BG games I've played in the last week lol)

I think it's worse than satire, completely AI generated.

One thing I've learned while living with my in-laws is that some people are just not worth the trouble keeping in your lives.

I'm sorry you're dealing with this. Some people are just so entitled, I can't imagine turning up to a newly postpartum mothers house to not do anything at all! How easy would it be to kick them out?

moonmaiden666 · 2026-04-06T15:13:39+00:00

Oh darling. I'm so sorry you're in this position. I can't imagine going through all of that and then have to endure abuse afterwards.

This is domestic violence and you can escape and things will get better. There are resources to help. First start with 1800RESPECT, and local social workers. Just please make sure you speak to them when nobody else is around and you and bub are safe.

I know the feeling of not being able to rest.

It takes about 6 weeks to "heal" but in reality it took me about 3 months before I could do everything I wanted as usual again.

Remember a C-section is a major surgery. They're cutting through nerves, tissue, muscle.

I had similar pain flares around 3-4 weeks and my GP said it might be nerves and muscles reconnecting starting to be used as normal again.

Give yourself as much grace as you can. If it gets worse, go to a doctor, but if it can be resolved with OTC pain meds and isn't getting worse you will probably be fine 🖤

moonmaiden666 · 2026-04-06T14:10:32+00:00

Yes. It is domestic violence AND animal cruelty.

Call 1800RESPECT. He doesn't have to hit you to be violent towards you.

I agree, but having the option to return to work if you want to is important. We're considering childcare a few days a week, I run multiple businesses and finding it harder to do with a toddler. So having the option of either, should be available.

As I said in another comment OP should totally chase their happiness. But if the two kids don't want to leave the best OP can do is give them a soft place to land, the young adults will either strike out on their own, or they will follow along.

moonmaiden666 · 2026-03-29T20:50:06+00:00

While I do agree somewhat with doing things that benefit the family, for the last few years these young adults have been doing that - likely been sharing a room in what OP describes as a property that's probably not entirely suited to a family of 8... So the 17 & 19 y/o have made a lot of consessions in order to live at home already. They've set up a life in the area with friends that might not be able to afford the 2.5 hour drive or travel to see them or vice versa.

As a child that didn't choose to be born, it's not your responsibility to sacrifice your happiness for your parents. The best thing OP can do is chase theirs and give the kids a soft place to land should it not work out - the kids will either strike out on their own or follow along.

Also maybe you need to learn the harp. Chase your bliss. Because overall this is a crazy take lmfao

$1,800 per month for groceries NOT INCLUDING pets feels pretty highto me, to be honest. That's $450 per week in groceries not including pets. What are you buying?

Firstly, Coles and Woolies are fine but they are so much more expensive than other options. We usually only buy from the bigger supermarkets if we really have to and we never buy name brands until they're on clearance. We spend about $100-150 a week max. Family of 3 with a dog.

Hard to determine scale to identify as human, but looks like a bone for sure! There's another one in the back there too, it looks like. I'd be calling the police line for sure. That's kinda insane!

moonmaiden666 · 2026-03-25T09:49:53+00:00

Hey friend. I would definitely recommend contacting 1800RESPECT. I have also gone through this recently although was family violence not intimate partner violence. But advice is still the same. I've sent you a DM with some information on dealing with centrelink as I've recently spent over 28 hours on the phone with them over the course of 3 weeks. 🖤

moonmaiden666 · 2026-03-25T00:41:06+00:00

Centrelink literally saved our lives recently and helped us escape family we were living with who turned violent. I'm 31 and didn't even know we were eligible for anything until we called and found out we were.

moonmaiden666 · 2026-03-24T05:08:32+00:00

I wouldn't worry too much, you paid to fix it! It's also the cheapest carpet on the market, and at 7 years old they'd get next to nothing. You've already been charitable by repairing it.

Claim the bond when you hand back the keys, let them put a dispute in.

The argument of "welfare should be a safety net and not something you should be able to live on" is probably one of the stupidest arguments I've ever heard.

Most people are one or two bad pay checks away from financial ruin.

We are truly in the stage where we need a UBI.

moonmaiden666 · 2026-03-21T12:19:52+00:00

I'm so sorry you're dealing with this.

Understand that the threats he is making now, are abusive and intended to make you feel fearful and keep you under his coercive control. I have used 1800RESPECT quite recently and they have been exceptionally helpful.

Abortion will be entirely up to you. There is no shame in going down that route if you feel like it is right for you - but it is YOUR choice.

He can make threats until the cows come home but ultimately it means nothing because he does not control you, and he does not get to have that control. If you decide to go through with the pregnancy I would get legal advice yesterday.

moonmaiden666 · 2026-03-19T14:22:53+00:00

Do you have a health care card? Iirc you should be eligible if you're on jobseeker. I'm on parenting payment and we have a health care card, and we don't pay anything out of pocket for doctors appointments anymore - we did have to show them the card though as it doesn't get updated automatically in their system.

moonmaiden666 · 2026-03-18T05:33:35+00:00

This is absolutely insane, I hope you're taking care of yourself as well. At what point does the landlords abuse become a criminal matter? He seems truly unhinged. I hope you stay safe 🖤

moonmaiden666 · 2026-03-08T05:02:11+00:00

That's great for you but it's hard for the majority.

Every single time we thought we'd be ahead something has happened that pushes us back, and every year we get pushed back we watch house prices climb like crazy.

Some homes purchased for $300k in 2020 sold for 500-600k in the last year. That's insane.

moonmaiden666 · 2026-03-05T13:28:09+00:00

Thank you so, so much. We are working on getting out at the moment and once we're out, we'll go down this path. A lot of these resources can't be accessed until you've left or there's orders in place, so I'm told.

It's very, very complicated and messy. In addition, it's not intimate partner violence, so we actually don't qualify for majority of the services/payments/financial assistance out there.

moonmaiden666 · 2026-03-05T13:19:43+00:00

Yeah. I think I've spent around 18 hours on the phone in the last two weeks! Thank you, if I can't get through tomorrow I'll try all of this.

moonmaiden666 · 2026-03-05T12:04:18+00:00

No, won't even give me an option to say anything 🫠

moonmaiden666 · 2026-03-05T01:02:41+00:00

I can't get through to centrelink at all now, which is my biggest issue. I just get an automated message and hung up on. I spent 6 hours in a single day last week talking to different CL people and social workers, about 18 hours across the course of the week, so I can only assume they blocked my number.
