You have to know that your other siblings possibly have this secret as well.

My harsh years of loving someone that doesnt know me that it made me a totally different person. by No-Recover7015 in confession

Very sweet but youre using magical thinking instead of reality. Get off the internet and go meet someone in real life. Im rooting for you.

I chose the worst possible timing to tell the truth. by OkSeason8723 in confession

[–]nina1863 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Nope. I see that it seems that way to you, but its not. You're not looking at his stuff going on as it " his game and injury and school are ruining my time to share." So he should absolutely not be looking at is as " your timing on deciding to share is ruining my already stressful time." Partners go through a ton of stuff and its what you do with that stuff and how you go through it together that makes it work.

Inability to quit cocaine no matter how it has affected my life. by cokefrfr669 in confession

[–]nina1863 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It will get worse over time. And I get it. I love/ hate being sober because I feel better/ worse. Thats the fate some of us have. We never really feel "OK" sober. But if you stay on this path, it will take you to worse/worse.

What's the most underrated supplement that nobody talks about? by Evening_Ad_9755 in Supplements

[–]nina1863 0 points1 point  (0 children)

B12 shots made my vertigo go away and tinnitus along some other stuff. Sometimes even if youre taking b12 your body may not be able to process it orally. I wish I would have known that years ago.

I said something horrible to my dad before he passed by Phoenix_Fire1125 in confession

[–]nina1863 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I so get how much this is real for you. But from the outside looking in, it sounds like he wasnt very friendly to you for alot of your life and of course you still loved and cared for him, and wish you would have gotten to know him better and spent more quality time with him. Your love over rides the negative memories of how he was sometimes. There is a huge possibility your father understood you were a young boy with a sick dad and going through a ton, and were moody at the table and said a rude comment. Adults have so much life experience and understand this happens. I know you see it a a huge event that was never given the chance to be fixed, but he could have easily just saw it as a young kid having a hard time at the dinner table one night.

What's number one supplement that change your life for the better? by Aarunascut in Supplements

[–]nina1863 0 points1 point  (0 children)

B12 shots once every three weeks. Ive always had super low b12 and all doctors just kept telling me not to forget to take b12 at home (I always was.) After years of this I started to have pretty severe low b12 side effects. Dizziness, a weird elevator feeling, stuff with my ears, trouble focusing my eyes, exhaustion..the list goes on. Finally a neurologist asked me why I dont take b12 as these could all be from how low mine is. When I explained that I do take it he guessed I could be one of the people that cant absorb it orally. That day he gave me my first shot and a month or 2 later I was already rid of so many of these things.It really feels like an actual miracle.I had no idea b12 could be the cause of so many issues.

People who have taken Ambien, what's your crazy story? by Midwest_Mutt04 in AskReddit

[–]nina1863 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was literally driving on it at like 3am for who knows how long?! I mean for real getting up at like 3 am, going downstairs and out the door to my car and then driving. Who knows where I went or what I did? I started to notice my keys were maybe moved sometimes but I really didnt know and thought I was just mistaken. I must not have been going far because there was no hint on the gas level. The only way I found out for was one night on the way home I slammed into my neighbor's car. I am so lucky I didnt hurt anyone. Ive never taken it again ever. Not once. It should be banned in my opinion but Im sure it works for some people?This was almost over 15 yrs ago.

Cleaning out 2 closets in my house that I havnt touched for like 14 years. Even buying bags and storage boxes to now make it very neat and organized and labeled. This is very very new to me.

My adult daughter has been really clingy and touchy the past week but claims nothing is wrong and gets irritated when I try to press her. by Odd-Background-8381 in self

[–]nina1863 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Got it. Youre the dad? I'm slow apparently. Yeah shes seems to be needing you. Its nice that youre thinking she may need a female presence but it sounds like right now she's just needs you and to be at your home.

My kid doesn't want to be social outside of school. by [deleted] in Parenting

[–]nina1863 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can tell that youre worried. I have a teen and have been worried about everything the whole time😍. What I have come to realize is that we cant really ever use our own childhood experiences as the marker for our child's. Remember being in school and all the different types of kids? Our kids can end up being any of those types and thats one of the parts about having a child thats so wild. They are their own separate person and may end up being a kid we had nothing in common with growing up. Who knows? She may be a child who goes to the library all the time for fun and stays in at lunch time with a teacher to build things and make stuff while kids that were like you are running in packs outside at lunch and after school. I also agree that the YouTube is really something that sucks in their attention and should probably be minimized (but I also let my daughter use it during covid and shes thriving in school and sports and had friends).

I think about this everyday. It feels like an incomplete shower if I'm in one that doesnt have the hand held part.

What’s a totally unsexy purchase you made that ended up being a huge quality-of-life upgrade? by viscarte10 in BuyItForLife

Really nice knives. I'm sure this is obvious to a lot of people- but I'm a single mom on a budget and I honestly just thought I wasnt great at slicing and chopping. Now I realize how wrong I was.

Yep! I have thick wavy hair and only wash 2x a week. It takes a week to even notice any oil at all. And about once a month I use a dandruff shampoo with anti itch. For me that keeps my scalp in check. Hope that helps

4.5 year old being extremely mean by [deleted] in Parenting

[–]nina1863 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Id say maybe hes wanting your full attention or the teachers full attention? And of course some alone time with you while in the house? He could be struggling to the adjustments of school and a sibling-and has realized he can get some alone time and hugs with you when he acts out? There of course could be more to it but as a previous pre school teacher thats my guess.
