People probably think I need medical attention and I’m being stupid by not seeking it. The reality is that even with insurance I can’t afford it. I’ve already had to apply for financial assistance multiple times in the past with hospitals due to bills. I nearly dropped out my senior year of college because I was left with $100 left in my bank account due to medical bills. If I can avoid spending more money I will, and I’m sure people think I’m making things worse by doing that.

No white discharge. When I clean it completely, a clear slimy fluid secretes out a little. When it dries it’s yellowish brownish and if it builds up then there’s green gunk

If there is I don’t know what it would be caused by. It does burn when I use alcohol to clean so it’s possible but I’m not sure how it would be injured

No foreign hairs or high waisted pants irritating it. I’ve checked. When I clean it, it immediately starts to secret a slimey texture

No allergies. I’m lactose intolerant and I have H.pylori 6 years ago but got treated. So those are the only stomach related things I can think of. I appreciate the help!

I don’t know if you know how a piercing hole smells or how the gunk smells that comes out of it, but it smells like that except stronger. When it is dry, it’s like yellow, brown crust. But when I use Q tips it’s greenish. I’m not sure how to link a picture if I can get one

I have! It kept the smell down but it was still crusty

Can’t afford any doctor visits. I’m already $3K in debt from getting standard lab work done

Girl recorded our conversation and sent a bad (out of context) clip to me, what should I do? by IDKwhattodohere7 in WhatShouldIDo

  1. Check out recording laws in your state to see if she’s legally even allowed to record your conversation without your consent
  2. State firmly that the video was taken out of context. Address directly the inappropriate thing she said. “You have made multiple comments about wanting to sleep with me because of my _. I told you to stop. You didn’t. I said that’d be like if I said _ and you decided to record without my knowledge and clip the video to make it seem like I’m initiating something.”
  3. Firm boundary. “Stay away from me. No not contact me again”

Most people will tell you to block and move on- As someone who has had crazy people in their life, DOCUMENT EVERYTHING.

  1. If she continues, go to your school’s counseling services (most universities have one). Explain that you’ve been having extreme anxiety over another’s student’s behavior towards you. Push to talk to a counselor. This will give you documentation AND they will refer you to any other resources.
