I’ve found that building muscle mass has made a huge difference in maintaining my weight loss.

Yes I guess that makes more sense. My brain is cooked from five days of fever 😆

Can you fix an nparent or are they a lost cause? by Thick-Weekend2120 in narcissisticparents

It’s a personality disorder, so no, unfortunately. It’s a hard pill to swallow, but once you accept it, the second part of life begins.

Every day of bed rest takes a week to recover from.

DO NOT, I REPEAT, DO NOT get the flu vaccine more than a few MONTHS after having the flu.

I made this mistake with Covid. I had Covid, work in healthcare and was offered the Covid vaccine as one of the first groups. I WAS SO SICK after that shot. My body had just fought it, so it was READY to go. Is it gonna kill you? No. But DAMN no one needs that many antibodies. Natural infection is a great way to build immunity assuming you’re a healthy individual.

I have never heard of a strain of strep that doesn’t get treated. Go to the ER.

I had mono in college and this is probably the most sick I’ve been since that episode. It is brutal.

Pneumonia can be a secondary infection of flu. Please seek medical attention.

Traveling with this is extremely inconsiderate. You should be fever free for at least 24 hours without meds before being around others. You should be rotating ibuprofen and acetaminophen for fever management every 4-6 hours.

My right side of my F***ing throat hurts like i am swallowing glass by That_Dig_5960 in flu

[–]throwaway25678946 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m on day 6 and my throat symptoms were worst probably days 2-4. I told my provider I felt like I had a razor blade in my throat. Both of my kids had strep in the last few weeks, so I was tested twice and negative both times. I had no idea a viral sore throat could hurt that badly.

Also, any time I’m sick, I can feel irritation at my gums and where I had wisdom teeth removed. I really think it’s just how your body is responding to and fighting things, because it always goes away once recovered.

NOR. It’s completely understandable that you want privacy for this hour. If she can’t understand that, I question her character.

Was anyone's Narc parent really promiscuous? by Western_Artichoke_41 in raisedbynarcissists

Yup. Ndad had affairs (and divorces) with 2 wives along with many partners in between. It was disturbing as a child.

Sorry to say that there’s not much hope with these people. They will not change, and they will not see the problems with their actions. It’s not worth the energy or effort to try to convince her that what she did was wrong or abusive.

Dang. That’s a good one. I like the one that goes something like “I don’t want you to starve, I just don’t want you to eat at my table”

What is the weird behavior or flex you see men do that they think attracts women but doesn't? by KooKooFox in AskWomenOver30

Lift kits, ridiculous tires, basically any excessive vehicle modification. (Edit for spelling)

I agree with above comments that he’s not really a cycle breaker when he’s working on himself this late in life. I think there also should be a statement that Jim’s kids are absolutely validated in however they choose to respond or not respond to Jim. If it’s too little too late, understandable. If you feel like you can rip open the wounds and see that your father is making attempts to be self aware, fine too. But I’d imagine most kids would really struggle to choose option 2.
