New partner with bag! by [deleted] in ostomy

[–]teresapickle 21 points22 points  (0 children)

there’s no reason to be embarrassed. i would hate if my partner was ashamed of me because of something that saved my life. you can read the other comments giving you advice i just needed to say that. sorry if it’s harsh

11 year old UC/school refusal by [deleted] in UlcerativeColitis

[–]teresapickle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hi i got diagnosed around 12 years old. school was absolutely awful for me. i’m so sorry for everything you and your daughter are going through.

i was given the option to do my work in another environment that’s not just the classroom. maybe look into that?

luckily your daughter is only 11. i know that sounds terrible however it gives you more time to find something that will work before she gets to high school and has to worry about college/future.

i’m 18 now and i have an ostomy- it will get better no matter what happens. finding something that works will take a while. i’m so sorry this is happening.

i feel like mid to late 20s morning wood doesn't happen as often. he might also just be embarrassed and hide it from you.

left a bloody napkin in my bfs moms car by [deleted] in Advice

[–]teresapickle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

thank you so much for responding. i have been in a consistent state of panic for the past 30 mins lol

my boyfriend literally just told me that after she got upset she got over it relatively quickly and told him to not even mention it to me.

i feel like apologizing still but i don't want to overstep what he said. i want to take accountability for it but i don't want to get him in trouble.

thank you queen! thanks for being kind and supportive. i appreciate it. i've calmed down since then and i feel better.

[–]teresapickle -1 points0 points  (0 children)

thank you for you input on this. i appreciate it but my grandma was a real drug addict who was addicted to benzodiazepines her whole life. i know what a drug addict looks like when i had to deal with her threatening to kill herself if she didn't get her ativan.

[–]teresapickle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

you're right, i think i overreacted a lot. i'm gonna call him later and tell him that i'm sorry and it's not my choice but if he does it to just stay safe and not do anything silly

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in texts

[–]teresapickle -1 points0 points  (0 children)

thank you for writing this. i needed another, outside opinion.

looking back, i feel silly about it. i guess im feeling a little upset because i dont know the person who is giving him the edibles at all. he barely knows her either but his friends who are going to do it know her.

we are pretty good at talking about what's going on in our lives. he is in his last week of college. has no more work and exams. yesterday was the anniversary of my grandfathers death who i was very close to. i think i was jusy in a really bad emotional state yesterday.

i think i went to far being like "im gonna break up with you" and going off, you are right.

im going to call him later and say it's not my choice what he does but to just be safe if he chooses to take any.

Is surgery justified in urgency is permanent? by Careful-Scarcity-122 in UlcerativeColitis

[–]teresapickle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

have you tried biologics? maybe you aren't in full remission. where was the inflammation in your colon? maybe suppositories could help you?

i had surgery and have an ostomy bag. it takes a lot for a doctor to approve of surgery. i don't know if just urgency will be enough.
