Chronic Turbinate Swelling is ruining my life

Hi everyone. Im 21M and got issues with my Turbinate hypertrophy when I was 15. I suffered with nasal breathing for a while and relied mostly on mouth breathing. Even during puberty years I would spend sleepless nights because of my breathing.

After years of treatments and no improvement, I decided to get turbinate reduction and septoplasty surgery when I was 19 just two years ago. And while the surgery did improve my breathing and I do not spend laying awake at nights anymore difficulty breathing, it still didn't fully cure my issue. I would say it improved it by 50%.

I still mouth breathe all the time, even when I sleep. I get tired easily despite exercising daily and maintaining a healthy weight.

What led me to post today was someone took a picture of my side profile today and I look horrible. My mouth is open, my posture is front, my nose has been crooked since 2 years now. And my jaw/chin have receded.

I'm getting anxiety attacks now. I'm scared if my face will ever return normal again. I eat healthy and train regularly and this is the peak of my youth. Despite surgery and treatment this disease is ruining my life.

What anime would you recommend me based on my watch list. Yes I'm very new still ig

  1. Death note

  2. Fmab

  3. Vinland saga (so far my favourite)

  4. Monster

I loved all of them. Vinland saga was my favourite though because I loved the characters and the vibe a lot. I wasn't the biggest fan of death notes ending and fmab was like the game of thrones of anime but it was long. I feel like fmab is a whole package and I definitely did enjoy it. Monster was really good but it didn't feel like an anime lol

Do I get a surgery or not?

M21. I have a short frame I know it's genetic. I just found out about this after working out for a week. Is it worth getting a surgery for in the future? Also how bad does it look?

URGENT: Blocked account transfer stuck for weeks

I am currently in a very serious situation and I need support because Fintiba is not responding to any calls nor my emails.

I opened my Fintiba blocked account beginning of May and my previous Blocked account provider confirmed that they initiated a transfer on 19 May of my remaining funds and they should be transferred to my Fintiba account.

However I haven't received any response at all from Fintiba. I have contacted Fintibot multiple times via email and they always reply with "we are sorry for the delay in answering you quickly.
Please give us a little bit more time to process your ticket." I have also tried calling, but there has been no response.

This is extremely urgent because I have a residence permit extension appointment on 4 June, and I need proof of sufficient funds in my blocked account.

At the moment I am stuck in the middle of two providers, with no clear communication from either side, and I am at risk of serious issues with my immigration process if this is not resolved in time.

If anyone from Fintiba can process my case here or provide any advice i would appreciate it.

I hope mods don't delete this. I'm going through a very stressful period in my life. I read and listen to Quran daily and I try to pray all 5 prayers and after missing fajr cuz I just can't seem to wake up for it or maybe im half awake and go back to sleep. I feel so broken ever since Ramadan finished it feels like I'm not the same person anymore. I feel like shaitan is always in my head and there is no call in my ears for fajr because of how weak my iman has been over the last month.

I study abroad and I do not have any friends to share my thoughts with and honestly calling my parents is probably the only time I feel happy during the day. I try to talk as much as I can so they dont end the call even if it takes an hour but of course they have their own stuff to do. For the past week or so there's literally just one thing going in my mind about everything. I even feel ashamed to say this but it's "I want to k*ll myself" Of course I dont want to do it and I'd never and I know Allah will make it all easier for me and this is my test. But as I said I simply don't care about anything anymore. I don't feel like working or trying or doing anything. I'm not even falling into sinful acts, it just feels like im in a void with all the stress.

I look at my situation its not even bad and I feel like I'm a loser for saying it here. But the truth is I think most people have someone to talk to like a friend or sth, I literally have no one to truly express my thoughts to. And if I do to someone in my family I don't want to appear as a loser year old male. And then at night I try to make dua like I used to in the past but it feels like I have no connection with Allah since my faith and iman is at the bottom.

I'll take any advice right now. I know we all are built different and have different tests from Allah. I'm sure a lot of you have gone through harder times. Thank you brothers and sisters
