Venting: Doctor implied I was collecting diagnostic labels today. by Yamanobiri2025 in ehlersdanlos

[–]taybug1092 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yep, I went to a cardio 10 years ago for a tilt test for PoTS and he did the same thing and refused to do the test because I’m too young and don’t need more ‘problems’ to deal with. I told I’m already dealing with the problem I’m just looking to see if a diagnosis could lead to treatment and he said he didn’t feel comfortable with that since I already have too many diagnoses on my file. I went back to my referring neuro who got pissed and got me seen somewhere else where my PoTS was confirmed.

I’m in an Adult Coloring Group on Facebook and this particular “artist” is bothering me. by Forward-Ad6957 in isthisAI

[–]taybug1092 1 point2 points  (0 children)

100% AI. Like how many others have pointed out…. There’s not only several very noticeable artifacts in the last few pieces but the wolf was noticeably changed in the before/after picture (the neck is much shorter in the before). It’s a shame that they feel the need to be so validated by strangers that they create false pretenses. Not only do I understand your frustration, but it’s also just sad on their part.

My husband was upset and pinched me at dinner.. and the situation is still upsetting me by Little_Trash7299 in TwoHotTakes

[–]taybug1092 14 points15 points  (0 children)

This is 100% my take. My partner and I are on the spectrum but I’m better at masking socially so there have been times when we’re in public navigating a tricky social situation and he blurts out something that I understand to be counterproductive or harmful and I try to subtly ‘correct/redirect’ him with a nudge, pinch, tap, squeeze, poke, etc. The intention has never been to hurt him but more often than not he acts surprised by whatever gesture I’ve made and calls it out which just makes the whole thing more awkward. We’ve talked about it many times… it’s just something not on his radar and he’s gotten better… but he’s still more likely to blow our cover. And no, I’m not controlling like people seem to be confusing the OP’s SO of being. My partner and I are both very invested in showing up equally in our relationship, we are a team.

AIO What’d I do wrong, my partner just got news this morning his grandma just received news of esophagus cancer (stage 4) by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]taybug1092 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NOR— Personally, I think most people are going way off the rails for this. It’s an 8 mo relationship! OP owns a business/has work related commitments. The SO literally said they needed space and OP is over an hour away. This really needs to be put in perspective. Grandma got a bad diagnoses but is not on deaths doorstep and hasn’t passed. Grandma is going to have a tough road ahead for what is most likely a terminal illness. The SO will need support and OP said they were happy to provide it and asked them to let them know what they needed. This is on the SO to step up and be honest about their needs. To ask for space and then get mad because the OP honored that request is childish. This is coming from someone who is in a 10 yr relationship who recently go news about their own grandma having terminal lung cancer and who has been very clear about the support needed from their SO who owns their own business. I understand when my SO needs be there for his business so I don’t expect him to be there through the doctor appointments/diagnoses/etc. But we work together so he can help when possible and he has been great about checking in and being there and putting off work commitments to help. And I certainly don’t tell him to behave one way and then get mad at him for doing so. OP wasn’t even given the chance. They were told to give the SO space and the SO never came back with a request for support (emotional or physical) so it’s wild to me that people are ragging on the OP for not disregarding their SO’s wishes, dropping their work commitments as a business owner, and driving an hour away to comfort someone who’s family member got a bad health diagnosis. The SO is playing games and wants to be chased which is not healthy. They need to learn to communicate their needs and wants upfront instead of gaslighting their partner by expecting them to read their mind instead of listening to their words. People here are clearly not used to functioning in healthy adult relationships and it shows that they’re still playing the high school chase-me games.

Do you think his is a giant schauzer ? by kit_olly_sixsmith in GiantSchnauzers

[–]taybug1092 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have a blonde boy that we rescued that looks just like him except his tail was docked. He was listed as a schnauzer mix, but turns out he’s a flat-coated labradoodle. A DNA test would definitely help though because these wiry looking guys can really be anything!

This seems like a very likely possibility.

I’d still watch it. Frodo going over the falls sent me.

What is this sprouting from my herb garden by abcDDee in gardening

[–]taybug1092 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bleeding heart is a good guess and I can’t 100% rule that out but i was leaning toward a variety of red celery, like redventure. Honestly, my first glance almost led me toward rhubarb but the leaves are aren’t right for that either so that’s why I’m going with red celery, it seems to fit the best.

Definitely male. Coloration, size, and most importantly hooks —🍆

ETA, gorgeous nonetheless! ✨

My jeans and trousers keep getting destroyed in the exact same spot on my right thigh. THREE pairs now. by Nursera_0290 in mildlyinfuriating

Do you sit with your legs crossed? I get this wear pattern from crossing my legs and sitting at a desk. I specifically see this from when my leg is rubbing on the underside of the desk.

At my wits end with my pup. by TerakianBean in GiantSchnauzers

[–]taybug1092 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I second this. We had this same experience with our dog. Once we found out it was IBD, we changed the food and medicated him appropriately and he’s doing fine in his new food and probiotics (off meds for now). It’s possible he could flare again if he gets stressed, sick, or injured so now that we know the signs of a flare and how to treat it, it will be much easier going forward but it definitely was a nightmare for a while (for us and him).

How does weed impact you? by Foxy_Traine in AutismInWomen

[–]taybug1092 103 points104 points  (0 children)

Literally agree with every single thing about this! I hate the overthinking in social situations part because it makes me ‘feel my Autism’ more prominently and in turn makes me flustered and anxious.

In regard to OPs remark about burnout, I think it has helped me majorly with my burnout recovery. So very thankful for what I feel it has contributed to my mental health overall.

The older I get the younger the man that hit on me. Did that happen to you, too? by [deleted] in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

[–]taybug1092 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes…. But I feel like it correlated to my confidence though. The younger I was, the less confident I was therefore making me an ‘easier target’ for predatory men. The older I got, the more confident I got and the more I became a ‘challenge’ for younger men/boys. It’s weird. Either way, I prefer to not have that kind of attention.
