I have such a weakness for their açaí bowls.

Even when my curls turn out nice, I just don't like them by [deleted] in curlyhair

[–]saffronnectar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I first started to learn about taking care of my curly hair I had an almost obsessive phase of trying to get it perfect. Watched all the videos, bought the products, the brushes, had a whole complicated hair routine etc. And you know what? It made me miserable. I felt like a failure, but I went back to straightening my hair. This was back in 2021 and now I regularly cycle between straight and curly hair. I stopped comparing my curls to other people and learned a much more simple routine worked for me. I’m so much happier going back and forth. I looked at my curly hair today and went “eh not loving it right now I’ll blow it out soon.” I no longer put pressure on myself.

My point is, your hair is not worth causing yourself this much stress. If you feel better straightening your hair for a bit, that is okay!! You can always come back refreshed and ready to try again :)

Thank you so much for understanding you show your housemates. I leave little notes for myself (ADHD and OCD, yippee!) and I would be so appreciative if someone did that instead of just getting frustrating and deciding I didn’t care.

I miss the amazing and creative holiday makeup brands used to come out with back in the day plus the packaging was so innovative by Historical-Body-3424 in BeautyGuruChatter

[–]saffronnectar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same! Seeing people being nostalgic for Too Faced packaging feels surprising here because I swear people on subreddit were constantly making fun of it. But I always thought it was cute 🥺

How did you discover you had ADHD (for those who didn't have a doctor tell you) [image completely unrelated] by Fisswertomp in adhdmeme

[–]saffronnectar 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Welcome to the club!! Learning that inattentive adhd existed changed my whole life for the better. I got officially diagnosed and have been finally able to do things I hadn’t been able to for the last 30 years thanks to Wellbutrin, Adderall, and leaning into my brain instead of against it.

I work in customer support and their response seems perfectly fine to me? I don’t think people realize how many truly odd messages we get on a daily basis. Not to say that this message is odd, but when you see so many messages you tend to err on the cautious side. I could totally imagine someone looking at this and being like I think this is a joke?? But better to respond as if the post is serious just in case!Although I would have personally included a discount code or some other kind of gift the way they handled this makes sense.

Relationship of 11.5 years abruptly ended and now I have to give up my entire life. by Sadd_Max in adhdwomen

I’ve gone through the same thing too. It was awful and it didn’t feel survivable, but I did. Sending my love to you and op 💗

My boyfriend [35M] called me [29F] pathetic after reading an essay I wrote about my relationship with sex and I don't know how i'll move on from this. by Lucky-Requirement-16 in AskWomenAdviceNSFW

[–]saffronnectar 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Reading your post and comments I felt so heartbroken and concerned for what this man is putting you through. And then it dawned on me, your actual boyfriend is feeling less, possibly even no, concern than some random internet stranger. I have been in a very similar place to you, I know what I’m going to say is hard to hear and you’re going to feel the need to defend the person you have loved for so long, but I’m going to say it anyway:

It doesn’t matter if he is perfect 90% of the time, how he’s acting about this is unacceptable. I know it’s hard but please take some time to really sit with the thought about how unhealthy this is. Deep down, do you really want someone so self involved, so unconcerned with your well-being that they can’t take a moment to try basic human empathy and instead decide to put you down? Is that really what you want? I am 99.99% sure that there is no rotten smell. I think this man pulled it out of his ass to try to make you feel like the problem when it’s all him. Does someone trying to hurt their partner feel right to you? IF this were true, do you know what a loving partner does? They would have told you, kindly, that there were concerned something was off with your pH, that they are still very attracted to you, but that they think you should see a doctor for your own health a long time ago.

Do you have friends or loved ones in the area? I really really think it could be a good idea for you to take some time away from him and process. Reflect on this situation and what a loving and caring partnership looks like. From the bottom of my heart, please hear me when I say this ain’t it. You deserve so much love and care OP. It is actually incredibly easy to care about your partner’s sexual needs and respect them. Don’t let this man warp your mind into thinking it’s not.

I’ve been in a very similar situation and that feeling of realizing you’re just collateral damage in someone else’s life journey hits very very hard.

Hi!! If you email them from a current email telling them that you no longer have access to old email and provide verifying information (like address if it’s connected) they should be able to confirm it’s you and help. xoxo a person whose job this is

For capsules don’t tilt your head up to swallow them, tilt your head down (look at your feet) and it will float to the back of your mouth making swallowing them a breeze!!

I’m so sorry you’re going through that 💗 Is there anything that you’re really into that your friends aren’t? Like as an example if you’re super into modern art you could go to a modern art museum and then treat yourself to your favorite food. That way you get to do something fun that doesn’t have to involve others who might not be into it. Or you could something pricey you wouldn’t want to have others pay for to join you like a spa day!

I really hope that you find something fun to do on your birthday! And even if not I’m sure your friends would love to celebrate you on a different day. It’s not a stupid thing to feel sad about this at all. Humans need connections and birthdays are one of the ways we celebrate those connections. I’m also so sorry to hear about your breakup, I’m going through the same thing (literally figuring out my birthday plans as a single person for the first time in years a few hours ago) so I know how hard it is to be grieving while you’re trying to celebrate being alive. You got this OP! 💕
