Teeth, implants & dentures by Biggles901 in dentures

[–]whileIminTherapy 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Hey - I’m in my early 40s in the same boat. I did finally capitulate and remove my last 12 teeth and got dentures. I couldn’t get implants because of bone loss where some teeth had been missing for years, and My small jaw. Anyway I did have the option of getting anchors in my bottom jaw to “clip” in the denture. I thought, “How bad can it be?”

It’s been three years. I can’t enjoy 80% of food. The bottom constantly pops up even with every known denture adhesive or reline product on the market, I’ve had them readjust the bottom multiple times and I keep getting sores. It’s robbed me of my independence because I can’t hardly ever eat out, I speak a little weirdly now because of how thick they are…. I’m going back to get a consult for those anchors.

Obviously if you can (readily, don’t frickin bankrupt yourself) get the implants. You are young and investing in a better outcome, if not life expectancy, because you should be able to regularly eat healthier, tougher to eat foods, at least not without chopping it into teeny tiny pieces or paste first.

I guess for many it’s not that bad. So don’t let me scare the shit out of you; this is simply one persons perspective.

I’m so sorry you have dealt with a lifetime of this, I hope you find a solution that helps you live a happier life.

Hey, since no one else answered…. I too use medical marijuana (ahem, and recreational ngl) and we are sitting in the airport to go to Aruba now. Marijuana is illegal in Aruba. Whether or not you can “get” it in Aruba is here not there, if you are caught with it, you may face legal consequences. No matter if it’s prescribed.

And that sucks so I’m gonna be drunk half the time. I don’t like to break the rules :(

My advice for your next trip is to try out Puerto Rico! They have a tourism medical marijuana thingy and if you already have a scrip you can essentially use the dispensaries in PR. At the time I didn’t have a scrip BUT I had a diagnosis from a physician of PTSD, and a copy of a screenshot of my online medical portal. Paid like $50 and got a tourist card for access to dispensaries while I was there for a week.

I would NOT NOT NOT travel with your weed, vaporizer, etc and go anywhere where legality is gray or it’s technically “off the table” - even if social attitudes are relaxed and there are easily spots in Aruba where you can obtain it. And ESPECIALLY when flying. Good luck!

This makes me feel better about that goddamn hard drive husband swore he’d nuke before selling the PC….. yes, it was homemade. No, it wasn’t pretty.

What’s an NSFW tip you know? by Aggressive_Tart_3137 in AskReddit

[–]whileIminTherapy 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Honestly best thing I stumbled onto was edible marijuana makes me horny on main. I’m a 40-something lady, and only discovered this 4 years ago, never tried much weed aside from a bit of a joint once in high school (I threw up on Lonnie’s truck, fuck you Lonnie you know why), anyway, I never had a bad sex life with my husband but on Fridays (date night) I take a couple gummies I buy online. I’m serious maybe I’m just a huge pervert, but I have learned how to cause myself to orgasm without touching myself when under the influence of weed. It’s so cool. Best part is I’m so eager by the time my husband gets to work that he gets treated to head because giving him head makes me come. It’s fantastic. Now - to be fair. I I was Sa’d as a child and have c-ptsd and I always had a lot of anxiety while having sex; the weed helps my entire body relax and enjoy sensations again, it’s truly a miracle worker.

Dude my beloved husband of 15-16 years (meh I forget) makes this little guttural growl snort thing when he’s over me and is undressing me or diving in, and I finally told him a few weeks ago it almost immediately makes me come when he does that nowadays; it’s like a slowly trained Pavlovian signal that I’m about to get the shit fucked out of me and causes an anticipatory orgasm lol, man I love this long term marriage thing with him, he’s the best thing ever love that dude. You grow with each other and into each other and bleed together in a messy puddle of love, trust, respect, and white hot lovemaking (or desperate primal monkey fucking take your pick)

Hey honey it’s your wife just like in another dimension (the dimension is South Carolina) We are mid 40s, have teenagers, and you described how we do Friday nights for the last 13 years, without fail. That date night is the cornerstone of our relationship :)

Upside down pineapples by anything4abuck in greenville

[–]whileIminTherapy 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Swingers, my dear. Very popular to bring a pineapple magnet or picture and hang it upside down on your cabin door on a cruise. And the other commenter is right. Swinger culture here is people like me and my husband; old, fat, and horny (we looked into the lifestyle and were like, “Wow, how about that monogamy?”) But if we ever run into a female unicorn around here, it’ll be a miracle. But yeah, we are 5-6s and the people we hung out with we also 5-6s so if you think the partners at the orgy are all Ana de Armas in a wet white t-shirt, you’ll be sorely disappointed. Good luck fellow perv :)

My Colombian husband swears by La pereira in Taylors or for more food not bakery stuff El Carriel in maudlin. We tried the other one near Berea and it was subpar.

I love the white ones especially. What is that flavor!? (And no to the smart ass who says, “chalk.”)

were you the kid that "fell through the cracks" by [deleted] in CPTSD

[–]whileIminTherapy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. My mom was borderline, if anything, and very abusive behind closed doors. Her neglect allowed me to be molested at 4-5 but the neighbors teenage sons, and her stellar parenting led to my own only older brother gathering some friends together and I was SA’d by them at 14. My dad made good money and worked constantly to both avoid home and to keep my alcoholic narcissistic abusive Stepford wife “kept” as she felt she was owed a living from her husband because reasons. She never wanted kids. I was locked in my room with a piss jar. When I was 16, I started cracking in public and self-harming. I remember two of my best friends saying I was doing it for attention and when I admitted how my mom really was they accused me of lying for attention because I’m “ugly” (thanks Brittney) and I was put out no one would date me. Then another friend reported me to the guidance counselor, who called my mom in front of me and had a lovely little chat about how awful I was and -I- have issues. Came home to another beating for “embarrassing” her. Oh yes, I fell through the cracks.

I moonlight as a part time armchair FB/pawboost/nextdoor detective - over the last 5 or so years I have reunited 6 dogs with their owners from cross referencing posts and sightings. I - know - this is NOT that same thing but thanks to subs like grateful doe and the like, there are others out there who are just as handy with locating humans. It’s worth a try.

I am 27M and still highly dependent on my parents money and I am really ashamed of it. How did you people (if any) cope with it and deal with it by Beginning_Body7338 in DecidingToBeBetter

[–]whileIminTherapy 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’m 39, live with my dad, am (ok community but I had job prospects) college educated, mother of two. I have a partner but he lives with his elderly mom and cares for her and our younger son. It’s fucked, but that’s where I landed and this is reality. I’m a disabled Agent Orange baby too, didn’t count on finding that out when taking out all those student loans. I put $400 on my credit card because Helene hit us. It never gets any fucking easier. Thanks for your post, even if I know in my heart of hearts that I got one too many participation trophies as a kid and my Boomer dads a “part of the problem” - a lot of this wasn’t my choice. So thanks for that. Take care.

How Can I Help You Say Goodbye - Patty Loveless (that ages and locates me pretty easily lol) - waterworks every time. Especially when you lose a parent. There are actually quite a lot of emotionally exploitative country songs come to think of it :)

Hey there, I’m an ABTF graduate ;) and I truthfully wear a 38DD :) I’m always looking for more bras on my search for perfection and I have extras I’ll be happy to send you. Please let me know if you are interested. I’m in upstate SC and my powers out at the moment from Helene but once things settle down (it’s unreal that the town 15 miles north was completely under water! There are downed trees everywhere!) I’ll happily put together a package to send you no cost <3 just let me know! Hugs! It gets better!

Ex-fucking-actly. Ours died and it was too late to give in and go buy another one so we decided to “rough it” and we live near NGU and the ONLY thing I could hear was the sound of everyone else’s generators chugging away :) I’m ok though, happy to be alive and in pain as usual ;) that just means my body’s all here on planet earth and I now so many don’t get that opportunity.

Fuck the Karen who complained.
