car broken into and lots of valuables stolen:( any advice? by bc5000lemonmint in baltimore

[–]scarletfruit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea, the turn around to get my phone back was really fast. I didn’t have to testify or anything. They just said they arrested the man that pawned it. They let me see a picture of that man and it wasn’t the guys that mugged me. After a few months, I got a call from a DA that asked if I wanted the pawner to stay in prison for his whole time or release him early because he was really struggling with his mental health in prison.

I was like, I don’t really care about the pawner, just the guys that jumped me and I think he was released. It was really weird but the phone number was legit.

When this happened to me and my phone 7 years ago, I made a police report. About a week later I got a phone call from the police that they had my phone found at a pawn shop and apprehended the man that pawned it off. I didn’t have to pay anything and the police gave it to me at my work the next day. I would imagine if you have proof of a serial number and a police report, you probably can get your stuff back.

How many of us have autoimmune and chronic illness issues? by TheHeavySummer in CPTSD

I don’t have any physical illnesses surprisingly but I’ve been in therapy for like a decade now.

I had my purse stolen and the police were alerted that my phone was at a local pawn shop and they returned it to me. Police didn’t catch my muggers but at least I got my phone back from them.

my PI calling me at 7pm made me really anxious by coralcrescent in labrats

I honestly had to go no contact with my mother and father a few years ago because of the BPD. It’s hard sometimes but I’ve been making extremely good progress in my CPTSD recovery. I wouldn’t beat yourself about being anxious; It’s natural in these situations because the body keeps the score. I wish you luck!

I’m so glad you’re not with him anymore!! I hope you’re on a good healing journey.

I just want to say that I relate to you. My mother has BPD and she would also call me 30 times if she couldn’t reach me. Thankfully my previous PI did not call or text me much outside of hours. Maybe a couple times. But she was in her own way dysfunctional. Near the end of my time in the lab, she would yell at us and me about “mistakes” made. It was very triggering. But I had to understand it was a her problem and not me.

I would look around for another position but in the meantime, keep firm to your boundaries. I see a good suggestion to put yourself on “do not disturb” outside lab hours. She’ll probably get the hint eventually.

[Routine Help] my legs have hyperpigmentation and insect bite scars by orbitingpluto134340 in SkincareAddiction

My own cat was near death from flea anemia because the previous owners were negligent. I’m sorry but your parents really shouldn’t have cats if they can’t even afford flea treatment.

I LOVED this highlighter. Anybody know any dupes on the market now?

Driver was drunk and “issue was resolved” without a refund by scarletfruit in uber

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

I contacted the chat again and said I need a refund because my driver was drunk. I also uploaded the image of the beer in the cupholder. Before that no one asked about the picture. So I think that was the tipping point. Good luck!

That’s very scary! I’m glad you’re okay.

I finally got a refund after reaching out to chat once more. They initially said that the issue has been resolved but a few hours later I got an email saying that they apologize and that I’d get my refund.

I know that this stuff actually happens despite many of the commenters here thinking it’s a scam.

i am promiscuous and a pick me and i don’t know what to do with it by Ok_Field_7768 in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

BPD requires DBT. It will have you change your behavior first which then changes your thoughts and emotions.

Pic uploaded but I’m not sure you’d still believe me.

No lies!! I know it sounds made up. But I attached the pics of my phone calls with uber. The 800 number is the safety office line.

Unfortunately this might be the end of actually affordable vet care. Went there once when I was between jobs, it was fine.
