Hello
I have had an order through Royal Mail. A kids t shirt so very small. They chose Royal Mail even though I have it turned off. I went to cancel but it says closest drop off is down the road and the map says it’s a post box?

I always thought you had to take it in to be scanned? Can I really just print a label and put it in the post box? Thanks

Hello
I think I know the answer but wanted other opinions

I had my Medusa re pierced two weeks ago, as it was quite a bit of scar tissue she put in a 12mm bar. As you can imagine it’s pretty big.
I have my size down appointment on Saturday and I am full of cold. Snotty, coughing and you can hear it in my voice. I’ve checked over the website and I can’t find anything about being ill but obviously she has other people so I’m assuming I should be re arranging my appointment

The problem is the bar is too big. And from where I talk and it’s constantly going up and down it’s getting so sore in the evenings and when I laugh the bar gets caught by my teeth. It’s healed completely fine. Swelling only on day 2 but clearly I need a smaller bar. Only aches at the end of the day. Other than looking stupid it’s sore from the constant movement all the way up and down. I’m also going away for two weeks so I will have to keep it for another two weeks.

What realistically is my options here?
I also got my nose done but that’s not healing so we’ll so completely fine keeping that bar in

Uk by the way thanks

Hello
I feel I’m going crazy.
My son is 21 months old. He’s our second child. We had problems with our daughter having separation anxiety but this is another level.

For 18 months he was a perfect sleeper. Sure he woke up to feed and then back to sleep. Never kept us up. Always asleep on time.
Around 2 months ago. Maybe even 3 at this point. It completely changed. Now he falls asleep and by 10 he’s awake. Back to sleep. 12. That’s it. Screams all night. And I mean screams. He doesn’t cry or scream all day but he does at night. All night. Doesn’t want to play. Doesn’t want cuddles. Doesn’t want mummy’s bed. Doesn’t want anything he just cries and cries and fights tou.

I went to the doctors - regression.
This can’t be a regression. He’s 21 months now. This can’t continue. I honestly am losing my sanity from being screamed at all night. My husband and I are constantly fighting. My daughter isn’t getting enough sleep for school. I can’t cope. I actually can’t.
I don’t know what’s wrong

Hello
Uk here
My gp put me on amitripyline. Already I’m gaining weight. And to be honest I haven’t changed my diet from before being on it, nothing is different yet all clothes are tight. The problem is my mental health is directly linked to my weight unfortunately has been forever not changing right now.

I want pain relief but I also don’t want to keep gaining weight as it impacts my mood and anxiety. exercise is a trigger for my fibro. And I try to eat healthier but food prep is an issue. I wasn’t a massive fan of my weight before but it was bearable. Now it isn’t.

Any meds I can ask for that will not have an insulin response weight gain before I lose my mind?

Hello
Just a bit shocked. A member of my family was assaulted. Did not know the person. Night out hate crime. And has suffered life changing injuries which has rendered her to lose her job and awaiting another lengthy surgery. It happened end of 2024. The guy fled for 6 months and was finally arrested mid 2025. He had a hearing last month and plead not guilty. Magistrates said the damage caused is above them and have passed to crown. Yesterday he plead not guilty again even with a large amount of evidence. Trial set for June next year? My family member still lives in fear and doesn’t go out. Why is it taking 3 years to get any retribution? He’s clearly a dangerous individual

Sorry bit of a rant just pretty shocked at the time line.

Thank you

Odd one but I’m trying to go back to a hairdresser. I stopped years ago over being uncomfortable and the sink to wash my hair kills my neck. That was before my diagnosis. Now I struggle more with showering than before.

The problem is I kinds of ruined my hair at home. I striped it and dyed it. It’s like 6 different colours and needs a proper chop. But I can’t bring myself to see a hairdresser. Getting over the anxiety aspect; the scented they will talk about my hair. But more importantly sitting there for that long. The sink physically scares me.

So basically I’m asking

Anything to help

Or should I just dye my hair black?

Thanks

Hello

My daughter is nearly 6. Three weeks away from her birthday. And she’s so ungrateful. She doesn’t appreciate anything.

We aren’t parents that have given her everything because we don’t have that. I try my hardest to make her childhood as good as I can but I developed a chronic illness in my second pregnancy. But honestly she’s always been like this. They say the terrible two tantrums she will outgrew but she never has. Her behaviour from being a single child to a sibling actually calmed her. Like she understands if she has it he has it and sometimes it’s better. But now We are in the stage where nothing is good enough.

For instance. We were at the park afterschool today. All of her friends left first. Completely fine leaving no tantrums. Our turn? Screaming. Demanding we go to the shop as she wants sweets.

Last week I took her to the shop after school and got her some sweets, demanded an £8 magazine. I said no. Started shouting and pulling at me the whole way home to go to the park. Nothing we do is good enough. She wants everything. A day out at the zoo? Cost £100 for us all. Food snacks all day and small teddies bough. Still screamed the way out as she wanted the giant teddy. Then wanted to go see her grandparents when we’ve been out for 9 hours. Going to the shop for her friends birthday? She needs something. We don’t give in, we never give in and yet somehow it’s still relentless. I don’t want to take her anywhere anymore. Nothing is good enough. She moans when she’s home. We go out and she wants to do something else to.

. Like? Girl. Give me a break. It’s embarrassing taking her anywhere as she just cries and screams. Even in front of her friends who are calm.

I’m honestly losing it. I really am.

Anyone have an advice?
