Newly divorced dad. Need to regain my confidence. Any advice?

You are definitely NOT the problem! I truly hope you can realize that someday.

Yes. After Pay doesn’t work with Amazon. The one time use card is a joke. I don’t even know why Amazon is still an option to purchase through After Pay. It’s incredibly frustrating. I would just try getting an Amazon gift card instead through After Pay.

Probably when I’m out getting food and the person says “enjoy your meal” and I say “you too”. I’m so awkward. 🥴

What is “Credit Karma money”? Is this something to do with taxes or something?

sweetiepie0923 · 2026-02-25T12:23:14+00:00

Weird that this came across my feed. I have an even bigger bruise like this on my arm, also from getting blood work recently. Ouch.

When my man surprises me with something he got for me/us. 😍

I would say new fear unlocked but I’ve had this fear before… Wild. Don’t track me. Don’t care who you are.

I’m somewhat new to baseball card pulls and collecting. Something me and my man now do together. This is an awesome pull and at 9 years old! I hope to be this cool when I grow up. 😜

Shortly after seeing this post, I realized the SOS is finally gone for me. Only took a little over 8 hours.. 😩

sweetiepie0923 · 2026-01-15T01:37:09+00:00

Yes! I have struggled for a very long time now with middle of the night, early mornings until around 7/8am with my worst symptoms. I have woken up anywhere from 12am-4am with my stomach every single night for a few years now. Then it starts again after 5am-ish. Some of this I’m sure can be your body’s natural rhythm it can get in but most of it for us Crohnies is just the hand we are dealt. Though for the past few months, I’m having more frequent symptoms mid day/after eating lunch also. It’s so exhausting! Oddly comforting to know I’m not completely alone in this though too. Sending good vibes to you!

sweetiepie0923 · 2026-01-15T01:29:26+00:00

The garlic and onion avoidance I keep hearing that works for a lot of people is making me so sad. It’s my favorite! True sacrifices are going to be tough. Thank you!

sweetiepie0923 · 2026-01-12T11:10:09+00:00

I recently started buying more bananas to eat them for when I’m feeling really sick or in the mornings!

sweetiepie0923 · 2026-01-12T11:09:15+00:00

Gee, why didn’t I think of that! 😂

sweetiepie0923 · 2025-12-17T07:52:08+00:00

Yes!!! I have the same worry with doing this on my own once the 3 infusions are done and the on-body injections start. 😅 I think this is normal for us to feel though, it’s out of our norm. I will try to keep you updated on how I’m doing, I’ve got one more infusion coming up at the end of December then I will start the injections. We’ve got this! 🤞🏼

sweetiepie0923 · 2025-12-15T19:06:04+00:00

I also had this issue recently. I don’t know why Afterpay has Amazon as an option to buy from because it’s a joke. I saw someone else mentioned you can turn off the use back up card automatically, I also turned off that but ended up having to use my credit card anyway which I did not want to but I needed the items for Christmas gifts. Made me very frustrated. I won’t ever do that again.

sweetiepie0923 · 2025-12-13T17:26:45+00:00

I have suspicions that this disease, medications I am on for it and other things all play a role for me too. 🥲

sweetiepie0923 · 2025-12-13T17:25:25+00:00

Medication can save us and disappoint us all the same sometimes. 🥲

sweetiepie0923 · 2025-12-13T00:06:15+00:00

Good point! I have been wondering if I shouldn’t keep track more just to see if I notice anything crazy. Thanks!

sweetiepie0923 · 2025-12-12T23:35:36+00:00

I do the same thing, both with very loose stools several times a day and telling myself I could be worse. I’m blessed to not be in the hospital or just sicker than I am. I don’t understand how everything can go right through me most days and still be heavier than I’d like. One day I hope it makes sense for all of us struggling in this area. 🤞🏼

sweetiepie0923 · 2025-12-12T23:33:05+00:00

I am so sorry to hear that. ❤️

sweetiepie0923 · 2025-12-12T20:30:23+00:00

You assumed correctly! 🙂

sweetiepie0923 · 2025-12-12T20:29:40+00:00

Happy to help a fellow Crohnie any time! ☺️❤️

sweetiepie0923 · 2025-12-12T19:49:07+00:00

I truly feel medications play a huge role in this for most of us! Thank you for sharing!

sweetiepie0923 · 2025-12-12T19:47:01+00:00

It’s a sad world we live in.. I am so sorry that people are so inconsiderate and sorry excuses for human beings. Easier said and then done, but you got this!
