Hello,
I have added a clarifying shampoo into my routine. The Redken hair cleansing cream. I have two questions ❤️

(A) Do I put conditioner from root to ends or as usual from the ears tips down?

(B) I washed my hair last night. Used the clarifying shampoo, conditioner and one United. My hair feels very dry this morning. Would a mask be better after the clarifying shampoo instead of conditioner?

Thank you

Hi,
I’m experiencing an issue with children coming onto my property now that the summer holidays have begun.

My driveway gate is positioned quite a distance from the road, so anyone reaching it would need to come well onto my property.

Recently, groups of children have been approaching the gate, which makes me uneasy, particularly as I have several dogs.

While my dogs are not aggressive and have never shown any signs of aggression, they are still animals, and I want to avoid any potential situation where someone might reach through the gate.

Would installing a privacy screen be sufficient, or should I consider a more solid barrier to prevent anyone from reaching through the gate?

Hello,

I just need to get this off my chest. I broke away from my narcissistic husband back in 2018. I recently received my entire medical notes and saw he was calling my GP to have me sectioned multiple times.

Reading my GP notes from his calls to them. I had no idea. He made those calls until last night when I received my full medical notes.

He reported to the GP that I attacked him. Reality: This was me moving furniture. I sprained my hand because the bookcase fell on my hand and crushed it between the wall and bookcase. I have never EVER laid my hands on someone.

I was hallucinating and paranoid. Reality: He was playing music in my sleep and denying it to me. He was also striking matches so that is what I was smelling. I found all that and have it recorded from a hidden camera that I set up.

I was in bed for 36 hours and not eating or drinking. Reality: I have never skipped a meal in my life. When he returned to the house. I was in the bedroom with the door locked watching Friends as I wanted to get away from him. I was in regular contact with family and friends. I was just not interacting with him!

I tried to jump out of a moving car. Reality: He hit me in the car. When we were stopped at traffic. I tried to get away from him. He locked the doors so I could not escape.

Plus loads more examples of him manipulating the situation to the Drs.

What made him do all that? I tried to leave him because he had an affair and he gave me an STI to top it off beautifully.

Hello,
I do not know which sub to post this. Yesterday, I got my first wheelchair it is manual.

When I am going up an incline. The front wheels are lifting up and the chair almost tips backwards.

How can I prevent this tipping from happening?

Hello,
We are having a bit of an issue with one of our dogs and are wondering if anyone has experienced something similar.

I have a neurological condition and rely heavily on mobility aids, as my walking is very poor. Recently, one of our dogs has started limping when I am around. We have checked him thoroughly and cannot find any sign of injury, pain, or distress. We will, of course, arrange a vet appointment to rule out any underlying medical issue.

What makes us think he may be copying my behaviour is that when I am not present, he appears completely normal. He runs, walks, and plays without any sign of a limp. However, as soon
as I am around, the limping seems to return.

Has anyone else encountered this type of behaviour in a dog, or could there be another explanation that we should consider?

I did adopt an older dog who broke her leg as a puppy. She would turn on and off the limp but vet confirmed she broke the other leg. She was getting spoilt with attention from having the limp 🥲

Hi, has anyone received their souvenir tickets? Can you please post a pic. They just sent me a standard ticket 😢

Hello,

I need to get this off my chest because it’s something I deal with every day. My ex moved a long distance away with his new partner and now has very little contact with the children. He hasn’t seen them in almost two years.

I often find myself wondering whether it was selfish to move so far away when there was no real need to. He had a stable job, a home, and his children were all in the same area. At the same time, I understand that people need to rebuild their lives after a relationship ends and may want a fresh start.

I suppose what I struggle with is understanding how someone balances rebuilding their own life with maintaining a meaningful presence in their children’s lives. It’s something I think about a lot, and I still don’t know the answer.

I often ask my son to pick up pods for me, and each time he comes back saying the staff were rude to him. On a previous visit, he was overcharged, and today he experienced the same attitude again that he experienced the last time.

What bothers me most is that his invoice shows he received a sample box with his purchase, but he was never actually given it.

It’s not a huge deal, but he’s a good kid, spending his money like any other customer, and I don’t think he should be treated differently. I’m just wondering if anyone else has had similar experiences.

Hello,

I have come out of a long-term marriage. I am still trying to make sense of situations on what is and what is not considered abusive.

Looking back. I have had several situations where I was very very ill but my ex would not take me to the hospital for treatment. When I would go he was always very annoyed and considered it an inconvenience.

I remember one time. I was passing out on the bed. I had zero energy and crawled on my hands and knees up the stairs. I said to him before he left for work “something is very wrong with me” I remember texting him “I have called a taxi. I am sorry but I have to go” it turns out I had blood clots in both of my lungs. I genuinely felt that he was so annoyed with me.

Another time, I was in agony. I mean I could not move or even say my name agony. I was apologising to him with the energy I would. that I have to be checked. Looking back I 100% needed an ambulance. When we got to the hospital

I obviously did not look in the mirror and the Dr. said to me “When did the jaundice start?” I did not realise I was yellow! Yet, my ex saw all that.

Would those situations be considered as a form of abuse? I really do not know so I am questioning everything and anything.

Did anyone else notice that she lost her pinky nail and then had it replaced between songs?

Can someone else confirm or am I going crazy because that had to hurt! 🙈

Hi,

Mine is coming up and I am wondering what to do for myself. I am thinking a bunch of flowers.

Hello,

I need to apply for disability allowance. I am severely restricted in all aspects of my life due to a neurological condition.

The GP who filled in the forms is not my regular GP. They have not seen me two years. They marked all my the restrictions as “moderate”

Would that be enough to qualify or should I make an appointment and let them see me so they can tick the box as “severe”

Thank you!
