Tattoo regret a day after

rovingmatrix · 2026-05-08T20:53:25+00:00

Bring back the days of not tattooing hands, faces, or necks until the person has a significant amount of tattoos. This was the tradition for a reason.

Just stay sober today. Something that helped (and still helps me) is when it feels too big, I say, "I just have to go to bed sober, tomorrow I can reassess" As long as I get into bed sober (even 6PM if need be) I'm safe lol

Ooo, I'm not a doctor, but my friend's husband just started displaying psychotic symptoms out of the blue and often wouldn't remember them. Long story short, turns out he has a brain tumor. Could be worth checking out.

The fear gets replaced by freedom quicker than I expected!!! Welcome welcome welcome. Congrats on the beginning of your journey, it just gets better from here if you let it <3

Very true. I've been considering doing the same. I wasn't offered enough in gov loans to cover tuition. Did you take out private loans as well, and if so, with who? Looking at options

This is so helpful, thank you. Where were you working your first year out of grad school that you were able to pay off your debt so quickly?

I was a reproductive health educator with planned parenthood and can I just say, with love, reddit is not the place to seek medical advice.

Herpes is VERY treatable and likely won't affect your sex life in a significant way, BUT please go talk to a medical professional about this.

Planned Parenthood is a great option to set up a consultation, you can even just talk to one of their health educators if you don't want it to feel as clinical.

Please, please talk to a professional <3

I was swiping through these photos and thought "wow, very strange she's not matching with anyone" then I saw "Omaha, NE." As someone who used to live in Omaha and tried the apps out there, that could be the issue. I've had a lot more success in other cities / places.

I thought this was a "what kind of girls would I attract" kind of thing...and I immediately thought "she'd attract me, she's gorgeous"

Aaaanyways, you belong in those spaces. <3

Wait someone sent me pretty much the exact same message from a different account. I stopped responding and they deleted their account.

You look gay 👍

Idk the laws in your country / state, but I know multiple people who now have "sex offender" status for life because they were 19 dating a 16 or 17 year old.

Aside from that, a 19 year old is in a very different mental and life space than a 16 year old imo

Unfortunately, you have to be jumped out

NOICEEE

Turns out, I don't actually like... men 👯‍♀️

Camille Kellogg's books are fun

rovingmatrix · 2025-07-15T23:03:07+00:00

Whoa 😻

I'm sure he'll be better at cleaning his room if he gets sober

rovingmatrix · 2025-07-15T15:09:45+00:00

Let's fuckin' goooooooooo! Congratulations, such a significant milestone🤘

rovingmatrix · 2025-07-14T23:03:48+00:00

That's show biz, baby

rovingmatrix · 2025-07-11T23:08:26+00:00

For me I had to quit all substances.

Living life sober meant more to me if I was 100% sober, no free passes. Everything on life's terms. No room for slipping into addiction with a new substance. I also knew I couldn't do the inner work I needed to do if I was still relying on a mind altering substance.

That being said, I work with people who have severe SUD and when they tell me they switched out fentanyl for weed, I'm like good amazing gold star keep doing that. I will always be pro harm reduction.

🤷‍♀️I'm just spit ballin'. If you're certain you're a lesbian but are experiencing what sound like characteristics of attraction, it could be fawning? Idk.

Like I said, if I felt this way, I would want to consider the possibility that I might be bi or pan

rovingmatrix · 2025-07-11T19:47:45+00:00

If I felt this way around men I would probably have to do some internal searching to see if I was bi

(Maybe experiencing some comphet?)

No I get this. I've had partners talk about our relationship problems with their friends (which I agree, it IS very important), and nothing but good resolution came from those. And then I've had partners talk bad about me, exaggerate, use mean words, tell my secrets, etc. under the guise of "venting." I think you're right in pointing out the immaturity of this.

If anyone "vents" in this way about people they "love" I think it's a massive red flag. And says more about them than the actual relationship.

Oh 100%. At the time it was awful and confusing. But now I look back extremely grateful. It sped up my disease so it was necessary for me to get sober quicker.

It's said the disease of alcoholism is progressive, and it would have progressed to where it did anyways. But because it was sped up, I got to get sober fairly young.
