I’m going to drive like 30 is minutes to catch a flight and my stomach is killing me. I’m genuinely concerned about having an accident. im going in about an hour. Pray for me or share tips… I’m gonna need it.

edit: I made it guys 🥹

I recently rewatched the movie again after years of not watching it, and I laughed to myself because I remember when I was younger I used to have the biggest crush on Donnie.

Just thought I’d see if anyone else shared this experience 😂

so I, at the time ( years ago) 13F and still to this day are very uncomfortable around children. I just don’t really have much of a desire to be around them, and I find them difficult to understand.

I have had to make this abundantly clear, since family would pressure me into talking about having children of my own when that is not a desire of mine.

All this to say, my cousin was very aware of this discomfort and lack of knowledge.

Just by the way, she is in her twenties she is not underage.

They had come over for thanksgiving week (and by they, I mean my entire extended family) and my cousin along with her husband and baby got my room to sleep in. I was already rather uncomfortable with this arrangement, since they would actively change their babies diaper on my sheets but I got over it.

My Aunt is a very loving grandmother to this baby and loves being around it at all times, and so does basically everyone else.

My cousin approached me on a calm day before we were even preparing for thanksgiving and said she was going out for the day, and needed someone to take care of the baby.

I simply told her I was not comfortable with that, not equipped to take care of a baby.

She got angry with me, and started saying how I should “just do it” or “your going to have to take care of a baby someday”

Now, I would have understood if there was no one in the house but me that could take care of a baby. But her sisters and brother and mother would have all taken that baby in a heartbeat and would have been happy to do it.

I still refused, and then my Aunt stepped in and said she would take care of the baby. (Thank you, Auntie ❤️)

My mother afterwards said I should’ve just done it, and this has been laying heavy on my mind for the last couple weeks.

So… what do you think? AITAH?

This is going based off of the events that caused each other starting at Ruby Ridge, going over to Waco, then “ending” at the unabomber

Those were so fun! some of them were art related and I really enjoyed participating in them. Mods, can we bring them back? pretty please 🥹

TW: Mental Health Struggle

I’m a teen with severe IBS and it’s so hard. I limit myself to one big thing and one small thing per day.

Im going swing dancing today, but could also go to the grocery store.

Being in the car for me for more then 10 minutes is such a struggle and so uncomfortable but I try my best to push through.

Im really good at hiding the severity of my symptoms, so people often misunderstand me.

I skipped out on going to the mall today because it was last minute and I simply cannot do that.

my cousin said “ohh your soo introverted“ and i said ”yeah… introverted. Thats definitely it.”

and he said “ohhh yeah is it because of your little stomach ache?” I didn’t say anything, but that made me so angry and sad.

My uncle invited me to go to a car show with a bunch of other people, and since I’m not interested in car shows and it was an hour away I politely declined saying I wasn’t comfortable.

He literally said “ You should get out of your comfort zone more often.” again, I didn’t say anything and I know he meant well but it made me want to rip my fucking skin off.

I got outside of my comfort zone literally every single day. only one person knows how hard I actually try. *one* person.

Im so tired. I just want to go home. everyone has opinions on what im doing wrong when i just need a little sympathy. They literally have no idea what im going through but they act like their experts.

Im so tired of trying not to inconvenience people :(

that mf is so funny. I would love to see more appearances from him in the episodes lowkey.

Hey guys, can we stop bringing up subjects that has nothing to do with Charlie?

I understand it’s because they are topics you would like him to cover, but he never even checks these subreddits.

He‘s publicly stated he barely browses the internet anymore and only really gets his topics from Matt or his stream comments.

This subreddit should only really be about subjects including Charlie and it’s getting a bit annoying just seeing random topics be brought up…

Anyways, feel free to share your opinion!

TW: MENTIONS OF ROUGH MENTAL HEALTH AND HARD EATING

my doctor diagnosed me about a year or two ago because of a terrible trip I had coming home from Christmas. ever since then it’s been really hard.

people my age aren’t very understanding. I have to play it off as a “stomach ache“ to get past it.

whenever I get even SLIGHTLY nervous, I need to use the restroom. I have to literally plan my days around my IBS.

I love food. I LOVE it. I can’t even eat the things I want to anymore. If I do, I have to make sure I’m not going anywhere for the next couple days.

On top of that, things that are supposed to help me are things I simply cannot eat. My family has an allergy to eggs, and I throw up if I eat yoghurt.

its gotten to the point where I’ve just started pretending that I don’t care about what I eat. if I can eat barely anything, might as well just… eat.

This means I constantly have to be on edge when I’m in public.

ill prepare hours beforehand and still not be sure.

Its maddening. AND THEN when I’m with friends, and I skip a meal because they’re eating something that will ruin me, they get super concerned every single time. I tell them that I have a sensitive stomach to certain foods, but their convinced I just want to not eat.

I love food :( my dad even said “people with IBS still can live their lives pretty normally, just more careful… why can’t you?”

the stress is killing me. I want to travel the world so bad but this makes it so hard. I have literal nightmare about going places without a restroom.

It effects my mental health and physical health so bad… I think im going to see a GI doctor to see if there’s anything I can do to make the effects more manageable.

Im still holding on to hope that maybe someday it could go away or become mild… because dealing with this every day is hell.

I just needed to rant... Anyone’s welcome to share their stories under this post.

Not with the struggle with his gender identity, but other things.

pushing people away when the love begins to feel safe. When I have close friends, im terrified they’ll wake up one day and realize im not worth it. That im a bad person.

whenever I do meet someone I fw, I avoid them because im scared ill have to be vulnerable with them too at some point. I dont try to be mean like Jax does, but its a super similar pattern ive seen in myself.

for me it was today 🫩 first time in years

I’m terrified that I’ll go through my whole life putting so much effort into the work I do artistically and just… never get noticed. I love what I do but it just gets discouraging sometimes.
