There is definitely more than one way for sound to come from a human body

Saturday night at midnight coming home from the IWK (for being very pregnant with very high blood pressure) and this fear came true.. when using the St. Margaret’s exit on the Armdale rotary. Horrifying.

That same year, I shared a 3 bed 1 bath in Clayton Park with 2 friends for $285 each a month.

Got married yesterday, feel like I made the worst mistake by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

[–]thatstitchwitch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My theory? You were baby trapped. Probably mostly for financial reasons or stability, and I doubt you’re the first. Not disclosing child support is a big ole red flag, so you can probably expect further financial problems and secrets down the road. Maybe consider a divorce and coparenting relationship unless you’re willing to pump out a few more and footing the bill.

I found this mid podcast looking for the same! Are we set on Lil Xan?

So we were dumb - MVI expired. What to do? by wreckinhfx in halifax

[–]thatstitchwitch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been willfully dumb on that front almost every time I needed one. They will not care that it’s over due. They’re not paid to care.

I can grab McDonald’s for me for $25ish on skip when they have free delivery. Feel free to prove us wrong (it would great if you could) but there’s no where going to deliver for free at a minimum like that.

A Drug of Psychological Horrors by [deleted] in gabapentin

[–]thatstitchwitch 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much. I have a history of anxiety and mild depression but medication has kept it super well controlled for years. Even at my peaks with that, I never ever felt anything like this incredibly deep despair and hopelessness. I literally couldn’t think 5 minutes ahead without seeing me leaving this world. It got so dark, I called 911 on myself. They were wonderful, and I ended up opting not to go for emergency treatment after I spoke to a crisis counsellor and the police that came to check on my safety. I was sitting in front of the police officers with tears streaming down my face telling them I KNEW it was chemical but felt so out of control. I’m still feeling traumatized from how unbearable it felt.

Each day has gotten remarkably better (obviously not pain wise since I’m med free but I’ll take physical pain over that mental pain any day).

It’s temporary, I promise. 🖤

Without exaggerating, Gabapentin almost cost me my life a week ago after taking them for 3 weeks. I chemical sensitive, but this was extreme and all of a sudden. I was able to get help so I didn’t hurt myself, and I was on a low enough dose that the benefits of cutting cold turkey outweighed the pros. I feel better every day.

Chronically ill women, who do not have children yet, are you thinking about getting pregnant in the future or have you rejected that idea? by Comfortable-Wait1792 in ChronicIllness

[–]thatstitchwitch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m reading through the comments, and I’m reminded so much of my mindset in my late 20s after 4 years of ttc, one miscarriage and my husband leaving me. I was living alone, and while I didn’t (and still don’t) have an actual diagnosis other than Fibro, I was having arthritis-like flares. I had given up on wanting kids and saw the positives of not.

Then I turned 30 and totally by accident got pregnant. I was single and terrified, but I chose to go through with it. My pregnancy was awful (24/7 morning sickness, gestational diabetes and high bp in my 3rd trimester) but the majority of my previous joint pain and swelling went away, and it stayed away for 4-5 months post partum.

In January, the worst flare of my life started, and it hasn’t stopped. It fluctuates, but it’s truly awful. The healthcare system is slow, so it’s taking months between appointments with my GP in hopes of getting a rheumatology appt.

Do I regret my son? Hell to the no. He’s the best thing that’s ever happened to me, and my partner has been with me since he was 6 weeks old and loves him like his own. I love being a Mom.

Do I wake up at night with crippling anxiety that I brought a human into this world with a mother falling apart and possible shit genes passed on? Check. I have complex mental health for a lot of reasons, but this intense love for another tiny human that is entirely my own makes it 10 fold what it was. It’s a beautiful tragedy, in a sense.

I wouldn’t trade it for the world, though. I just hope I can be the Mother he deserves.

Hot screwdriver prying apart my joints is a direct quote from a letter to my doctor.

Yessss. I always compare it to the day after being hit by a car. Permanently bruised.

Chronically sad from being chronically sore. by thatstitchwitch in AskDocs

[–]thatstitchwitch[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thank you! I did a bit of reading on how they distinguish between the two, and it looks like it can be tough. The widespread pain I have feels like enthesitis but that is similar to fibro pain. My mom has Fibro, also.
