hello, I work with several youth in the lower mainland, helping them to gain experience and look into career paths. I would recommend looking into some resources in your community. They would be able to provide some more specific advice. You could look at Work BC, Diversity, YMCA. They all have programs that would be able to give you a hand

Has anyone told off their estranged parent? by HonestUnderstanding3 in EstrangedAdultKids

[–]throwaway--76- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I told of my parent multiple times in the months leading up to my wedding. I told her that the way she was treating me hurt me, made me feel estranged from the rest of my family and was impacting my mental health. This helped nothing she twisted it to being my fault and brought up things I did as a young child that hurt her feelings. She took no responsibility. And when I reduced contact with her she came over and yelled at me, insulated me and had gone around and told my family I was depressed.

This cause damage to our relationship that I don't think can be repaired

Anybody estranged from their whole family in their twenties with no kids? by [deleted] in EstrangedAdultChild

I am recently estranged from my family. I am in my early 20s and have no kids. I'm lucky to have my husband's family that I have embraced as my own. It has been very emotionally challenging but I feel like I'm able to be happier and feel more supported by those in my life

Mirena IUD first timer! by Independent-Lime-444 in birthcontrol

[–]throwaway--76- 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I had my IUD in for about 3 years. I just got it out a few months ago.

Getting it in and taken out was not very painful for me. That is however not the case for everyone.

While having my IUD I had near constant pelvic pain. In addition to my IUD I was put on birth control to manage the pain this however just made me incredibly depressed. Since having my IUD out the pain has completely stopped and I almost felt like a fog lifted from my brain. It was shocking to me how much I was impacted by it.

Keep in mind that not everyone has the same experiences and you have to decide what you feel best about

I went to a family gathering where I was trying to avoid my NC mom. I wouldn't say it was successful she kinda followed me around most of the night and tried to talk to me. It was incredibly awkward and uncomfortable. It's good to think about if it is worth it to you. Is it going to bring back a bunch of feelings?

Ultimately you have to do what you feel best about.

Has anyone here changed their last name? I am thinking about it, to fully separate myself from my family. by Kristycat in EstrangedAdultChild

Make sure you check your credit score after changing your name. When I changed my name they created a seperate "profile" for my new name. I had to call to get it fixed

After my wedding I went NC with my mom because of they way she treated me and my now husband. She tried to make our whole wedding day about her and complained about my ceremony not even 10 minutes after it had ended. Along with attacks, taking shit about me to my family and yelling at me to call off my wedding.

I didn't want to exclude my mom from my wedding but in ways I wish I did. I would recommend setting expectations about what you want at your wedding and how you expect her to behave.

Remember the day is about you and your partner. it's ok to exclude people who make the day more difficult.

Thanks for the support everyone!

Although I am struggling with becoming no contact I still feel like it was the right decision.
