How badly have I messed up?

I let my maid of honour borrow a bracelet of mine for my wedding ceremony at the beginning of July. A couple days ago I asked for it back.

Some contexts to the rest of the texts:

I have a chronic illness, so I split my ceremony and reception by a couple of weeks so I had time to recover. Unfortunately, my family made some nasty comments the days before and after my wedding, which I told my maid of honour about and she said I should really consider cutting them out of my life because the comments were so bad. So between the ceremony and reception I was in a mental health crisis, which she knew about in detail. I haven't seen her since then and have been very mentally and physically unwell since. She's having a Halloween party next weekend.

The day before my wedding, my mum put together some bouquets from artificial flowers (and made nasty comments that night too implying I was ungrateful, even after I already thanked her), and she told my maid of honour she could take one home, I didnt want to upset my mum and cause even more drama on my wedding day, and being exhausted and ill, so when my MOH asked if that was okay I said "we'll talk about it later", so a few days before the reception we went to collect them, she asked why I didn't just say no to her taking them, so I explained about my mum.

She arranged my hen do and also helped with fundraising for my wheelchair and donated some money.

She had told me that her fiance had lost his job earlier this year, but never said they were struggling and he found another job a month maybe before our wedding ceremony.

Botox for severe bruxism?

Ive had all kinds of splints for it in recent years - soft nightguards which I bit holes in within a week and ground down within a month, an SCI which I ground down within 3 months, two b splints which I cracked within two weeks each. My dentist says the next step up, a Michigan splint, wouldn't work for me either because I would probably just crack that as well.

I know ideally I would be tackling the underlying cause, but I'm waiting for investigations on my sleep and gastro, as my sleep wake cycle is messed up and I have acid reflux which the regular meds hasn't helped. I also have neurological disorders which could be contributing which don't have cures. Plus severe mental illnesses that I'm also on the waiting list for treatment for, but they aren't going anywhere any time soon.

I'm wondering why my dentist wouldn't recommend Botox? At least I'm the short term while I wait on other specialties. I can see it's listed as a possible treatment of TMDs by NICE but they don't have a dedicated page for bruxism. Should I request this? Is it not typically done in the UK?

28f, non smoker, non drinker.

ME, POTS, neurogenic bladder (hyperactive type), reflux, sleep apnea (currently untreated until the sleep team have finished their investigations), currently waiting on an extraction on my two lower wisdom teeth.

Duloxetine, omeprazole, solifenacin, propranolol, low dose naltrexone (for inflammation).

I know I take an SNRI but the bruxism has continued through periods without any antidepressants and coming off them isn't really an option because of my mental illnesses and neurological pain.

Where to buy gluten free food?

So my partner and I are visiting in a couple of weeks, I was wondering what supermarkets sell gluten free items like bread, pasta, etc? And any restaurant chains that have gluten free options? We're staying in Grindelwald so any local suggestions would be amazing! I'm not celiac, just intolerant so fine with "may contain" or cross contamination

What can I use instead of mouth wash?

Mouth wash makes my mouth burn very badly, I've tried sulphate free and had no luck. Can I use salt water instead? Bicarbonate? I have the same issue with toothpaste, but sensodyne pronamel seems to work well, although it causes a manageable mild burn sometimes. A lot of other toothpastes and mouth washes cause my mucosa to slough away

I get married in two weeks and asked my parents if they're excited. They gave each other a look and unenthusiastically went "yeeeah"

They could have at least pretended 😭 I went to a wedding last weekend where the day of the bride cried when he gave his daughter away, and my parents act like I've just asked if they're ready for me to give them enemas or something. It's all been a bit triggering

I get these fluid filled pimple type things inside my cheeks semi often. Any idea what they are?

The pictures aren't great, as it looked like the top layer was practically translucent, filled with a clear liquid, I usually just pop them with my teeth and they go away. There's also one healing from the other day underlined in red. Always quite small, pimple sized, usually one or two at a time, not painful. I also get swollen and painful gums in various locations a couple times a month. I also get raised pimple sized sores on the front of my tongue which do hurt, but go away within a couple of weeks. I have chronic infections around my two bottom wisdom teeth, not bad enough for antibiotics, but I'm on the wait list for extraction. I suspect I may be allergic to something in higene products in general, some toothpastes and mouth washes burn to an unbearable amount,some make my mouth lining Slough away (the toothpaste I use now has a very mild burn, it's sensodyne pronamel). I have severe bruxism and wear a B splint currently. I do have a lot of undiagnosed bowel issues as well. F28, BMI of 20, don't smoke, drink very rarely.

Which looks better?

They're both a bit rough. One is using slate from my garden, the other is a cut up t shirt with filling. They're for my wedding reception, and will likely be reused around the house after. I was thinking glass pebbles but I don't really want to spend any money
