Need advice selling in Washington State, tax filing with no official business?

I asked the city and also the vendor coordinators, but didn't really get an answer. I told them I didn't operate under a business name and asked if I needed a license, but I guess I didn't and they let me in the event?

I'm selling some acrylic pins for a 1 day event in about 2-3 weeks, under my personal name and item I am selling (Blank's Pins) I know that I will most likely need to report what I sell, if I sell great I make 1k at most. No other activity for rest of year. How would I file if I am selling under my personal name, who can I talk to to ask for legal advice, and any other advice would be appreciated.

Earlier this month I got pneumonia (first time ever), was on antibiotics for a week, and started to improve but then things got worse again. It turned into bronchitis, plus a sore throat, so I’ve been dealing with breathing issues and high blood pressure that’s been making my anxiety spike. I am very healthy and always low blood pressure, but mine has been in hypertension because of infection.

One day at work my breathing got really bad. I tried my usual techniques, but nothing helped, so I called the urgent care that originally diagnosed me. They told me if I was having chest pain and trouble breathing, I should come in or go to the ER. When I got there, they suddenly said they didn’t take my insurance (even though I’d been there before). Around the same time, I also found out my family was intentionally abandoning me because I never visit or call home often enough (golden child), and worsened my anxiety. I called my boyfriend right before his class to let him know what was going on and ended up going to the ER since I was told to. They said it was bronchitis and didn’t find anything more serious.

Since then, things have been tense between us. He’s upset because he feels like he got scared and missed class “for nothing,” and that this is the second time my health has disrupted his schedule. He’s also frustrated that I woke him up one night when I had food poisoning on top of bronchitis because I thought I might need to go back to the hospital (we didn’t end up going, and he thinks it was just anxiety since I was better after 10 min).He also feels like the focus has mostly been on me these past few weeks. He says I’ve been distant and mean, and that I didn’t really acknowledge or celebrate his recent academic success.

From my side, I feel hurt because I’ve shown up for him during his health issues (like leaving work for his asthma attacks and staying with him through a surgery situation). I didn’t complain about missing things or his mood during those times because I knew he was in pain. So it feels unfair that he’s treating my situation differently. When I brought that up, he said the situations aren’t comparable.

He thinks I’ve been too self-centered lately an in our relationship. I can see that I haven’t been at my best, but I also feel like I’m not completely in the wrong here. I've been the sole breadwinner for the past 3 years we've been together and try to support him best I can. How do we find a middle ground when we both feel hurt and unsupported in the relationship?

TLDR; I had a recent health issue that I am still recovering from, BF is mad that my anxiety has been out of control and he has missed class for me. Brought other issues into light like selfishness and other fighting points in relationship. How to meet in the middle?

I'm the oldest in the family. Me, my sister, and brother fought when we were really young, and became really close when we were older, in my teens and 20s. I moved away from my family to a different state, as my field is more prevalent in the area I live in.

Everything was a nightmare this past year to the point I had confided to one of my siblings I had suicidal thoughts earlier in the year. Basically because I was forced to work at a toxic workplace, and ended up being fired (got unemployment pay at the end by winning my case I documented) being the sole provider in my current relationship (partner going to school) dealing with a bad apartment with high humidity and dr appts throughoutthe year, and job hunting everyday for 4 months. Because of this I didn't have time to answer as many calls cause I was so busy. I got so much flack with them saying I didn't care about them anymore and I never visit.

What makes me mad that I am being cut off is the fact I was parentified as a child. I paid for their first cars, I paid for their high school extracurriculars, dropped them off at college, bought them groceries when they had no food, visted once or twice a year ( i always visited them not them visiting me because they say they hate my state or they don't have money, even though they visit their friends in other states) when I didn't ever have that. I had to do everything on my own because our parents didnt want to pay anything for me. It feels like such a slap in the face that everything i did didn't matter because I needed time and support. I'm getting the silent treatment and they won't answer my calls or texts about a wedding I was planning to see them at. I feel so torn apart.
