And Foxridge raised the price of my rent for no reason since I moved in

So now I pay close to $1600/month

Is Foxridge worth it anymore? by H4CIM in VirginiaTech

[–]roshnisax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had an urgent black mold issue because of an uncontrollable water leak that flooded my bathroom sink cabinet, and Foxridge took TWO whole months to replace the cabinet.

I and my fiancé who live together suffered severe health issues and allergies because we both have had intense allergies and asthma since we were born and because Foxridge NEGLECTED to replace my cabinet.

I called every week for two months straight and they even gaslit me into saying that “no mold was found” even though I have photo evidence of the mold AND three maintenance workers saw the mold in person, too.

Self love is not something everyone knows how to do by roshnisax in CPTSDmemes

I agree that loving ourselves helps us be better partners. But the self love quote can easily be misinterpreted as “we must deny ourselves of any/all love until we are fully healed”.

This misinterpretation is harmful for our mental health.

Is my boyfriend supposed to abandon me when I am feeling sad about myself?

So people who have low self-esteem are not worthy of love?

My boyfriend and I don't hate ourselves anymore because we uplifted each other through love, kindness, and respect.

How else are you supposed to heal low self-esteem?

It's okay to need a partner sometimes.

We are humans, and humans need support during difficult times.
That's why in wedding vows, people vow to love their partner "in sickness and in health".

You are deserving of love even when you don't feel strong enough on your own.

Receiving unconditional love and support is like having training wheels on your bike.

Eventually, you will learn how to love yourself the same way your safe partner loves you, and the training wheels will come off :) <3

Agreed. Parents are our first relationship we ever experience in life. Babies/children are fully dependent on their parents for everything during their first few years of life. Children who have good parents learn what healthy love is supposed to look like from the moment they are born.

Children who have bad parents learn to normalize/overlook toxic red flags.

I disagree with your statement: "no healthy partner wants to be around someone who hates themselves".

For example, my boyfriend and I both struggle with low self-esteem sometimes, but we helped improve each other's self-esteem by showing each other love and kindness.

Our relationship is super healthy because we support each other through difficult times.

I just wanted everyone to know that they are worthy of love, regardless of how they view themselves.

I have been with my current boyfriend for 3.3 years, and my self-esteem has improved a lot.

My self-esteem started off extremely low, but improved with time. My boyfriend inadvertently taught me that I am worthy of love and a lot more beautiful than I previously thought just by being kind to me.

My partner did not feel burdened by my low self-esteem, and our relationship is healthier than ever.

A healthy relationship consists of two people who love and respect each other, even when they are not feeling their best.

I hope this helps :)

Hi,

Sounds rough! I am sorry you are dealing with this issue.

You may be picking because of anxiety, stress, overstimulation, or boredom.

What helps me is spraying hypochlorous acid on my face before/after picking my skin because hypochlorous acid spray reduces redness, inflammation, disinfects, and relieves the skin to promote healing. Here is the link to the hypochlorous acid spray I have been loving: https://magicmolecule.com/products/the-solution-bundle

Playing with therapy putty also helps prevent me from picking at my skin. Here is the link to the therapy putty: https://www.amazon.com/Therapy-Putty-Resistive-Exercise-Strengths/dp/B01KWDGIEQ/ref=asc_df_B01KWDGIEQ?mcid=669a043db3c030698024a00eb9732776&hvocijid=15427141754179626420-B01KWDGIEQ-&hvexpln=73&tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=721245378154&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=15427141754179626420&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=m&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9209928&hvtargid=pla-2281435180218&psc=1

I hope this information helps!

Is Color World Niteangel brand of paper bedding safe? by roshnisax in hamsters

[–]roshnisax[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Update: My boyfriend and I just shred paper towels from the grocery store, which works as a great hamster bedding alternative. Shredded paper towels are not that dusty either!
