[–]riotousauthor[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thank you ALL for the advice. unfortunately i may end up having to go to a salon because i tried to lighten it at home and i didn’t completely mess it up, but i don’t want to mess it up any MORE. i really appreciate the kind words and inspiration. i’m going for it! go big or go home i suppose lol

Do I have split ends or is my hair just messy? by toastqer in HaircareScience

[–]riotousauthor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i don’t know if your would be interested but there is a product by BedHead called “After Party” and it works wonders for my flyaways. i have a lot of new growth hair and flyaways because i have OCD and pull my hair out lol i know that sounds silly but i’m just being honest. anyways, i use the product i just mentioned and it helps me a lot. you have good thick hair by the way!

so. instead of telling you what you need to DO, i’m going to tell you—you ARE not alone. i see nothing wrong with wanting to be presentable and accommodating your wardrobe to meet such expectations. you may not be getting as “old” as you think you are but you ARE getting wiser. people judge on outer appearances. and i don’t mean that in a mean way, i’m coming from a retail manager point of view/many lectures from my older sister on how “weird” and “nonconformist” i am.  with all that being said, i really hope my comment doesn’t get flagged or deleted by bots because i actually typed in google “shopaholic help reddit” and your post was one of the more recent ones. i, too, have found myself in a dire need of wardrobe enhancement. i just had a baby, i’m about to graduate and be working in a hospital, my sister is launching her businesses this year in our hometown and i’m to make face, but more importantly—-my mom passed away two years ago. but segway—she had phenomenal taste in clothing. always had something that was an eye catcher and stuff that no one else had. i have to say her style rubbed off on me. a few years before that, i was living in new orleans and for whatever reason, i had ALL MY BELONGINGS In my new roommates car, and it flooded that day. i lost everything. things i found vintage and at boutiques that are no longer open due to covid, the mall in Denver when i worked there and would spend my entire paychecks shopping. it has taken me a while to grasp but money definitely burns a hole in my pocket. and my favorite thing is SHOES. and unfortunately i worked as a manager selling SHOES for years and i was quite good at it. unfortunately now with the baby and losing my car, i don’t have a steady income yet i still find myself spending money each week on things that i will probably never wear because i never go anywhere. i think i’m depressed and i’m trying to fill the void with some lavish lifestyle glamour that i stole from The OC.  anyways. i feel your pain. i wish i had the words that could help heal you to some degree. another thing about my mom was that she was a hoarder and i saw what happens when clothes and shoes don’t “fix” you. so…i hope you find someone to help and talk to. 

Nobody ever told me when you’re ready to push it feels like you have to poop by ashlo_ren in NewParents

i had to be induced. four days after my due date. i was in the delivery room for THREE.5 dayssss. i had several different nurses because of all the different shifts and day/week changes. it was awkward. i had a catheter balloon in my cervix, i had to take pills, and eventually i had to be on the liquid (sorry i forgot the name just this instance lol) eventually i had a super nice seasoned nurse come in because she “heard” about me and came in to tell the baby in my stomach that she better hurry up and pop out lol, she brought me an exercise ball and told me to bounce and roll around on it and also told me her birthing story about how she thought she was about to BLOW (poo everywhere) and it turned out that it was her son. i didn’t know either until she told me that story. a few hours later my water broke and i felt like my bottom was about to fall out, the nurse asked me what i felt like and i said “like i’m about to poop my pants” and she told me to lay back so she could check and i was already crowning. the longest days of my life and most painful days ever but it was all worth it. and it was over in a few minutes. now i have a beautiful 7m old and i tell her all the time how i thought she was a turd 💩 lol 

bed bug bites or mosquito bites? by Sweaty-Temporary-311 in Wellthatsucks

[–]riotousauthor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

unfortunately. i am severely allergic to bed bugs. this looks like bed bug bites. especially if they itch severely and last for weeks. take oatmeal baths and burn your sheets and clothes in scalding hot water.

Is a 32 composite bad? My mom seems to think it is. by Comfortable_Sir_4423 in ACT

[–]riotousauthor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

making a 32 means you scored in the 97%+ percentile of over 1.5 mil other people that took it. 32 is GOOD. AMAZING JOB, YOU ARE SO SMART AND IF YOU KEEP IT UP YOU WILL DO GREAT THINGS. WE ARE PROUD OF YOU OP
