Leaving a job I hate for a new opportunity. Entirely different but better hours, pay and actual room to grow. The thing is, I truly did love the people at my current job. I’m scared I won’t have that again. Im grateful and blessed for the opportunity. I’m just scared shitless

Please send words of wisdom.

I’m leaving my job at a dog daycare and one of the reasons is the roaches. I know it sounds dumb, but I just can’t stand cockroaches and working with them I just can’t handle.

I want to add it to my exit paperwork. How bad are roaches for the dogs? Am I being dramatic? Is there anyway to sanitize the building without closing down?

Title sums it, opened my door to an heb delivery that wasn’t mine. I did take it in because it had fish and I’m calling Heb but no answer and there’s no names. Do I store in the fridge until someone shows up?

Only did a month of reta to lose a few pounds but wondering if I should stay in for maintenance or just see how I Do without it? Do any of you still use it for maintenance if not how long did you stay on it?

I see many posts regarding the mental health decline when taking reta and everyone just saying it’s due to not eating enough or drinking water.

While that is true, it also completely affects your dopamine receptors. Just like how it’s stalling your food noise, it’s also stalling your “feel good”/reward” system noise so you experience less joy and want in your day to day. This ALONG with the feeling weak and dehydrated in this summer heat is really gonna tank your mental.

I’m not saying to not take it, I still am taking it with tweaks. Just PLEASE take the mental health part seriously. Lower your dose,eat healthy, get your sunlight and steps in and TRULY MAKE THE TIME doing things you enjoy.

Thank you for coming to my TedTalk.

Fenty has been having such insane discounts on so many products, I’m just wondering if there are any that are worth it or any that are must haves? I’m only trying to buy a few things so PLEASE LMK SO I CAN AID IN THIS SHOPPING ADDICTION YALL

Like the title asks, is it a bad idea to ever try and contact the other woman? Why or why not? Whether it be texts,calls or to appear at their home?

The demons on the shoulders say do it lol but I need logic

Love the show with my whole heart. Love the cast and characters and Eloise herself. I just need to know if anyone ever found out why they gave Eloise the worst wig in the beginning seasons. I know for a fact they know how to lay down and invest in some good wigs.

It’s ONLY ELOISE THOUGH that had the worst wigs and worst bangs. I just want to know if anyone ever found out why 😭

My co worker basically never comes in for her shifts. She calls in twice a week due to Lupus. It becomes a problem because it’s so excessive but because she has a disability nothing can be done.

I enjoy this co worker and I even just ask her why she won’t work part time while still getting insurance and she just says no and rather call out. She has even admitted sometimes she just doesn’t feel like coming in but because of her disability nothing happens.

I hate even asking but can anything be done about this? I assumed Texas is an At Will state so she can get terminated. However, she also admitted she rather get fired to get a lawsuit going anyway (which again I assumed Texas is at will so I didn’t know a lawsuit would occur since she just calls out so much)

Can the company do anything? I felt bad for so long but now I can’t stand working with her knowing she admittedly takes advantage of the situation while we have to pickup the slack and then just admit she’s prefer to get fired to get additional money from her suiting

I’ve been married for 5 years and we aren’t wealthy in any way. We budget but have no kids so we have some spending money that we use to buy takeout, dates once a month maybe etc something like that.

I sometimes offer my co workers some boba tea or coffee when I work (it’s $6 and they always cover my shifts so I never think of anything of it). However, they always say how lucky I am because my man does pay the majority of bills.

THE thing is, they ALWAYS bring it up. No matter what I say I want to eat, buy or plan they alway bring up that my man is the main provider. I’m not ever bringing up anything insane. It’s not like I bring up brand new Dior, Chanel bags. I usually bring up buying my Lululemon leggings on Mercari for $20 bucks or ordering a venti coffee sometimes and asking if they want a tall, or having a small shopping day at tj maxx to buy skincare on sale.

Today while I was sitting they literally begged me to get them a coffee because they were craving one and I offer sometimes. It was the first time they asked this and I was literally astonished they did. I never thought they would have the nerve to ask and they just bring up how they can’t afford one on their own because their man doesn’t provide for them. They have no kids either.

So I’m asking…what do women think when they end up with men who aren’t as financially secure? Like I mentioned, my partner is in no way wealth. We rent, go on a vacation once a year and we both love deals. However, I can never imagine bringing up someone’s partners finances so I don’t know what they are thinking.

Dumb question but I recently went to a zoo and saw a Caimen for the first time up close and yall I absolutely got goosebumps. They are the most gorgeous creatures but even through the glass seeing them in water I knew id absolutely faint if saw one in person chilling next to me. I’ve seen and love so many reptile species but I can’t explain why caimans get to me.

I love reptiles but I hope I’m not the only one who has a species that make you weak in the knees (in a oh f*ck way)

I’ve just been officially diagnosed after years of “what if’s”. It’s been a huge mess in my mind filled with shame,guilty,insecurity etc. it’s truly been eating me.

I was bawling all day scared to tell my husband. When I finally did he just gave me a confused look like “what? I could’ve told you that lol” in a joking way. He then asked if I wanted to talk about it and when I said no he reassured me he was there for me and was extra sweet the whole day. I haven’t brought it up and he hasn’t and I don’t really want to with him yet. Things have been normal

I then today told my close friend/ co worker after she saw how distressed I was all day. It took forever to admit it and I couldn’t even say the words at first. Once I told her the diagnosis and how ashamed I was she just said “oh? Why? Idk, I thought I was for the longest time. It was just PMDD Lol. We’re just girls. Do you want my Zofran?”. We then talked about our issues before the diagnosis and I felt so much closer to her. She had a cvs list full of issues she’s working through with her psych. Something I never would’ve guessed.

Even with all of this positivity/neutrality… I still feel so ashamed. I don’t know why and I know there’s a stigma but I just can’t shake it . I told my psych and she just reassured me And said “maybe it’s my line of work but..it’s much more common than you think. I’ve heard my clients call it ‘locking in’ before they got diagnosed” I haven’t laughed that hard in so long tbh lol.

What finally got you to get over the guilt? How did your support group (friends/family) react?

I’ve been seeing it all over my feeds across multiple platforms lately and it’s definitely becoming almost an aesthetic. However, some of the comments are actually pretty positive toward them and I just want to know if it’s worth the try?

I’m not a smoker but am those people that usually need another cup of coffee around afternoon and get a crash by noon. What’s everyone’s experience with it? And what are the benefits rather than just having a coffee with some vitamins?

Title sums it. We have all had experiences of people trying to detour us from our life plans. It’s usually a monologue talking about their own experience with a hint of judgment disguised as advice.

But…like for what reason? Where does the audacity stem from?

I had an encounter today that made me question it. My colleague was talking about how she got off birth control. I asked “oh you trying for kids with your husband”? She simple answered no and that she just wanted to try ovulation tracking/ condoms etc and didn’t want kids

And yall know what I replied with? I said “okay dinks love that” and that was it.

Like. It’s that simple to respect someone’s life choice. Like obviously if someone I know is cheating or doing crack ima say something. For personal choices like home owing, marriage, reproduction? Hell no. Like who tf am I to do that? God? Jesus? Nope

If anyone knows or has maybe talked about it with a therapist/professional please let me know the reason. Like I literally just can’t relate on pushing someone to do something they don’t want?? Especially about your sex life and what comes from that?

I increased my dosage I say about 2 weeks ago from 150 to 300mg while on 200mg Zoloft and Im feeling so intensely about so many things.

The first few days I was an anxious mess but tbh I expected that, I took off a day of work and just relaxed. So that wasn’t the issue. A week goes by and while my anxiety is gone I just feel so angry? Initially I thought it was my period but I finished a few days ago and my agitation is through the roof.

Im a huge cryer and sad girl so I’m not use to feeling such angry emotions instead ( kinda sounds dumb but I hope someone understands). I’ve read it is a side effect but less common . The only side effects that were bad when I started/increased Zoloft was nausea and headaches

If you had experience with intense emotions on bupro I’d love to hear please!
