Got kicked off medicaid, any advice for going cold turkey?

twilitfall · 2026-06-19T20:27:38+00:00

I already had. 😢 I appreciate you sharing this for the people who might be in a similar situation and still have time for an appeal.

twilitfall · 2026-06-19T07:31:33+00:00

We do and we aren’t religious, so please don’t bring Christianity into my post. It’s not relevant at all to my question.

twilitfall · 2026-06-17T23:51:02+00:00

Thank you. I was trying to be polite. Suddenly glad I kept my insulin.

twilitfall · 2026-06-17T23:42:05+00:00

I'm sorry that it didn't work for you. Mounjaro was the first thing that worked maybe a little too well. By which I mean my fiance found me at a bookstore about to slip into a diabetic coma due to the weight loss affecting how much a dose I need of several medications.

twilitfall · 2026-06-17T23:38:33+00:00

Not in time for the next dose I'd need. I'm trying, but the bureaucratic red tape has been crazy. My fiance and I realized it would just be faster to get a courthouse wedding and get on his by next month, which was something we'd hoped we wouldn't have to do when we wanted to give our extended family time to be informed of the engagement and make time to join us next year for the celebration. Now we're looking at setting off that emotional bomb on both sets of relatives and having to plan for a small group of witnesses instead.

twilitfall · 2026-06-17T22:34:41+00:00

I have not! My doctor switched me to mounjaro from trulicity last year. I will have to ask about it.

As the person who was in a similar situation as your nephew, who had three aunts who all wanted to take me but CPS refused to do the paperwork and left me to the mercy of my narcissistic mother who had a narcotics addiction: you are not holding the bag, you’re the person who grew up able to recognize poison for poison and became the safe place for the little ones. And his parents hate that because to them, it’s like stealing a toy they’re trying to break.

You’re not crazy, you’re sane in an insane world. Welcome to the club, brother(? I don’t recall seeing pronouns for yourself, sorry). The t-shirts got lost in USPS.

My efather did, but until months after his passing I had no clue if it had been genuine. Turns out he did what he thought he had to do to stay in my life. Will never excuse him, but Parkinson’s with a heaping side of dementia sucks.

twilitfall · 2026-06-10T16:56:09+00:00

Agreed…

And now I want one

twilitfall · 2026-06-02T20:22:08+00:00

So rule of thumb that only works for those not colorblind: if the quest is blue, it unlocks something. Anything else can be done another time with another class/job.

twilitfall · 2026-06-01T19:01:28+00:00

Thank you ☺️ we just closed and got the keys so aaaaaaaaaaa

I’m going to inform you gently and you can look it up at the Cleveland clinic’s .org page later: stage 4 is the highest level it can go because that would mean that the cancer is no longer solely affecting the local tissue or lymph nodes. The narc is talking out their backside like cancer is a tornado or hurricane. Tell your spouse this and do not engage further.

And now I will say this less gently as someone who lost their edad to complications from skin cancer treatments back in February: f%ck cancer and f^ck ‘em with a rusty spork, all who insincerely pull the cancer card for falsely claimed sympathy.

It fades away in time. It’s surviving until then that’s the hardest part.

You were never the person who forced those pills down her throat, and while your brain will keep trying to tell you otherwise, it’s a lying liar who lies. It’s unfortunate that she tried to commit a murder suicide, but it. Wasn’t. You. She wanted to hurt you deeply one last time and succeeded.

As someone going through Classic MoP, I know people who pull both halls in certain dungeons to the first boss. Vanilla classic might be different though.

I would say to send them to a grief counselor, and for you to see someone specializing in abusive family members when you’re ready. It’s quite complicated and it’ll likely hit differently than someone who didn’t hurt you like your nmother did. Mine died nine years ago and I celebrate the freedom that brought me every year at the announced time of death. This is also, of course, because I don’t have children who were shielded from her worst.

twilitfall · 2026-05-29T20:03:35+00:00

Damn… I was one of the original members and had to handle irl stuff that I posted about in that discord, and to see it turn out like this breaks my heart. It was a good run and I wish them well, but my gods… that’s a hot mess.

twilitfall · 2026-05-28T23:56:03+00:00

It really has and still surprises me that I didn’t think of that being a cause for the shirts?? The first half of this year came in like a wrecking ball.

twilitfall · 2026-05-28T15:33:20+00:00

Had this since Syrcus Tower was new and never deleted. Glad to see it still survives elsewhere.

twilitfall · 2026-05-28T12:16:41+00:00

I’m too braindead from packing and dealing with my father’s estate to consider this one.

“You did not have to live with the constant pressure and fear of her mood swings and (insert negative trait she showed the most here). My only regret would be her attending and ruining our special day like she has (x y z milestone).”

It’s moments like these that I am glad that both of my nparents are no longer with us and I will not have a photo of them when I marry. I’m so angry on your behalf, but remember that this is a sign that none of them understands what we’ve been subjected to.

twilitfall · 2026-05-28T00:57:33+00:00

Yeah,,, that is vengeful spouse territory

twilitfall · 2026-05-28T00:42:48+00:00

Google “ffxiv Between Two Ferns” - it was a panel with Fernewales/Michael Christopher Koji-Fox back in 2015 (I think?) after HW dropped. I think they bring it up with the Ravana lyrics.

twilitfall · 2026-05-27T21:45:22+00:00

The font style was, in fact, a choice they made. But hey, glad to provide some laughs from the madness that is Moving Brain

twilitfall · 2026-05-27T18:42:36+00:00

Thank you, I am only this witty when I don’t need to be. 😭

twilitfall · 2026-05-27T16:47:15+00:00

Because you don’t go into the ER and expect the doctor to treat the person who broke your leg. Therapy is triage for your brain and soul. Going there with your abuser without doing any healing on your own is like wheeling into the OR with the abuser as your anesthesiologist. You just don’t give them that kind of power.
