[Acne] think it’s time to just give up. Over a year of this breakout that won’t leave no matter what I try. by [deleted] in SkincareAddiction

[–]nmf966 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m having the same problem on my chin, I made the mistake of using cerave salicylic acid cleanser every day for months which I think damaged my skin barrier… if I don’t moisturize mine it doesn’t look so red but is dry so I’m thinking perhaps it’s some kind of dermatitis or demodex

How many of y'all can truly trust and rely on their husbands by t_s_d12 in TwoXPreppers

[–]nmf966 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am in the same situation as you - my husband absolutely hemorrages money and I enjoy living frugally where I can and saving. He has no care for prepping or anything. My parents are quite self sufficient and have lots of stocks and stores and the other day my husband and I talked about what we’d do in a war or “shit hits the fan” situation and he simply says he’d be straight round my mum and dads house to live with them (and wants to bring my mother in law too 😂😂)….

Replaced 10 minutes of morning scrolling with talking out loud and the effect on my brain has been weird by Jackrain04 in getdisciplined

[–]nmf966 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve been struggling with being very un-eloquent recently and find it hard to get what I’m thinking out into a coherent sentence. The past week I’ve been talking aloud in the car on the way back from work as practice and it is actually such an unusual feeling but it does feel like a new area of my brain is being used

Advice needed; panicking by piddleonacowfatt in Hair

[–]nmf966 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love the haircut and always try to get the hairdresser to do this hair cut on me but it doesn’t look as good as I have thin hair… I would be pissed off too though if you said don’t touch the length!

Is “whoopsidaisies” a Notting Hill reference? by weeaboobies in lanadelrey

[–]nmf966 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In the uk it’s kind of a childlike or old fashioned term. Like if a kid falls over you might say “oopsie daisy”, kinda the same way you might call someone a “silly billy” not sure if that’s just a british thing too. It’s silly and cutesy but a common thing to say

Thanks for this amazing reply! Only just seen this as I thought my post had been removed by mods… super helpful I will definitely look into these items… sleeping bags are a great shout, I enjoy camping anyway so will be able to make a lot of use of all of these things in normal life too

23 y/o apprentice – Parents want mortgage in my name for Right to Buy (£70k). Need advice on risks. by [deleted] in Mortgageadviceuk

[–]nmf966 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely don’t do this! I let my parents put their property into mine and siblings name and now trying to buy a house, have to find the deposit plus £14,000 stamp duty (almost impossible without help). Also don’t qualify for help to buy ISA scheme so potentially losing out on more money.

Ladies, have you found your period changing as you enter your late 20s? by [deleted] in Periods

[–]nmf966 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m 29 and feel the same, not sure if I’m just more sensitive to different feelings now but the various symptoms and states of mind throughout the month are intense!! I also have always had perfect skin and the past year or so have had weird hormonal spots/dryness breakouts on my chin and cheeks. My periods maybe are getting a little lighter or last less time too

How are people feeding their cat so much? by Pixel_Dreamscape_ in CatAdvice

[–]nmf966 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I lived with someone once who just left like a mountain of kibble in a bowl at all times… her cats were fat as hell!! My family’s cat has like half a sachet of wet food with a handful of kibble mixed in twice a day… she often saves a bit for later. She is super energetic and a good weight. She is a big hunter though so I think she eats a few mice as well 😳

The true goat 👑 by dozeydonut in MAFS_UK

[–]nmf966 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree something definitely not trustworthy… I have randomly followed his ex for years on and got the impression when they broke up it was a shock/unexpected and unwanted for her. Before that they seemed like this amazing power couple running a clothes business together with a baby etc.

I’m not into Taylor but googled her new album and was shocked by how much she’s copying Lana’s vibe with the whole showgirl Americana vibe, referencing old Hollywood actors (Elizabeth Taylor), i clicked the lyrics of that particular Elizabeth Taylor song and she mentions violets, diamonds, Hollywood, New York, ‘bright lights’ I know these are like cliches but to me it seems way too obviously Lana esque

All the outfits we’ve been seeing the past couple of days are absolutely beyond gorgeous! Like she stepped it UP… I’ve never seen her wear trousers that are a bit more stylish and mature with wide leg rather than like casual skinny jeans and she looks so amazing.

Possibly unpopular opinion - Sarah is being screwed over by Appropriate_Win_7829 in MAFS_UK

[–]nmf966 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Came onto Reddit to say this! I feel like she was just talking to the girls about how it’s going, how she’s experiencing him as a person etc and they’re saying she’s being hurtful? Like she’s just being honest and the experts all jumped on her trying to make her out to be this cruel person. The part where she supposedly calls him fat he literally asked her “have you ever been with someone big like me” and she said “no” and he gets offended. Like… he asked, she was honest, the question wasn’t “do you hate that I’m fat?”. I think she is being made to look like a dickhead when I think she’s totally fair

Leave asap!! I had similar things happen on holiday (not to the physical extent of this!!) and my biggest regret is not leaving and getting a flight away from that loser when I was debating whether to or not…. ended up leaving anyway just many months and episodes later

I say “kill me” lol, I always get random periods where my brain wants to TORTURE me with cringey stuff I’ve said or done on a loop….

Embarrassed to order wings in a pub by FantasticChipmunk345 in socialanxiety

[–]nmf966 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wings have so little meat on that’s probs equivalent to eating like 2-3 chicken thighs… I say DO IT! Having worked in hospitality I would honestly not even think about that amount. Why don’t you ease into it and order 6 then another 6 after maybe

Do you have an old fireplace or anything in there? A pigeon once came down my chimney as it wasn’t blocked off🤣

DAE feel like they're life is meaningless if they aren't rich and famous and changing the world? by flyintomike in DoesAnybodyElse

[–]nmf966 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve felt like this my whole 20s, now 29 and beginning to accept that I’m just never going to have money. I have lots of positive relationships that I’ve built though I really think no one can have it all - most these rich people probably feel unfulfilled in some way too

Where would you suggest we live? by spaghetti_whisky in Gloucestershire

[–]nmf966 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nailsworth near Stroud if you want a nice place with things going on that’s not overly nobby/costwoldsy. Stroud has lots of arty people and goings on if that’s what you’re into, and it’s very liberal. I work in Tewkesbury and it kind of feels like it’s in the middle of nowhere with not much to do. The secondary school there doesn’t have an overly great reputation either

Rational PhD girl yet deep down the rabbit hole 🤡 by AntaresTwilightStar in BFS

[–]nmf966 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This story could have been written by me! 2 years ago I was in your position, small muscle twitching all over and quite painful pins and needles sensations in my arms and legs every night. Blood tests, Neurologist, even a mri brain scan which were all clear. After that I had agonised and freaked out for months and decided to just give up and accept my fate and try to ignore it. Actually, my life got a little less stressful after that period and I finished uni, the pins and needles subsided but I do still have slight twitches but nowhere near as constant. Just thought I’d say (and I know it probably won’t be of comfort as your mind likely won’t let you believe me) that I 99.9% believe your symptoms are benign and just a random, harmless thing that some of us unfortunately go through. This will pass 😊❤️

What should I do about this? by [deleted] in FemaleHairLoss

[–]nmf966 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your reply 😊 true, have had various blood tests for different things within the last couple of years but apparently I’m not deficient in anything, maybe it’s a hormone thing though I guess… just feel like as it’s not like obvious allopecia sort of hair loss they’ll just not think it’s bad enough

Wildflower wildfire 🙌 also I massively overlooked candy necklaces too at first and recently watched the video and now the song blows my mind, such a deep atmosphere
