Should i get the 17 pro or wait for 18?

Currently using ip14 and my phone is out of storage. The battery dies very quickly (in 3-4hrs) and overheats. Should i get the 17pro now? Or wait for the ip18 pro? Considering the 17pro instead of ip17 cause of the camera and upgrades.

Idk if im ok…idk if im feeling whatever that im supposed to feel

Ive been numb for years and after a sexual grooming incident, ive lost trust in people. Ive built up walls and stopped sharing how I feel and what i’m struggling with to others. There are people who asks how im feeling and i can only answer “im ok” to stop the convo. Maybe deep inside me, i know I’m not ok, but i don’t know what i’m feeling. It just feels off and numb.

I also have this strong urge to cry in someone’s arms…my last hug was from that abuser years ago. My parents have never hugged me before.

There are times where I want to cry in front of others and hopefully get some form of comfort, but i ended up being disappointed and i feel lonelier afterwards…

What’s wrong with me…advice and comfort pls 😭

To those without a mother figure in their life

Mother’s Day can be hard to those without mothers, or those that grew up with “mothers” who aren’t as present as you wanted. Mother’s Day can feel like a beautiful day of celebration for some, and a deeply painful one for others.

Sometimes, we crave for that comfort, safety, or tenderness people talk about when they speak of “motherly love.”Sometimes the hardest part is watching everyone celebrate something you quietly ache for. The hugs, warmth, gentle presence and the feeling of safety.

If Mother’s Day is hard for you, I just want to say: you’re not alone! It’s okay if today feels heavy. It’s okay if you feel sad seeing all the posts.

And for those who have had to learn how to “mother” themselves, that’s a quiet kind of strength.

I’m here if anyone wants to talk :)

Context, i work as a youth mentor under a residential treatment centre for youths-at-risks. I’ve been working there for close to 2 months.

For the past few days, they’ve been ganging up on me because I was setting and enforcing boundaries. It’s like a good cop bad cop thing, and I’m always the bad cop. I had to be the bad cop so that my other colleagues can look better and more “kind” to the girls. There are times where I was alone and the other colleagues were no where to be found. The ratio should be 1 mentor: 3 girls, but it became 1 mentor: 15 girls.

The girls were calling me “onion” and covered their nose whenever im nearby. I smelt myself and there wasn’t any smell. I spammed perfume all over me too. They were also telling me to “go back and be a f-ing nun” and i wasn’t even a nun. I only attend church. They said i was the reason for their crashouts.

What should i do…it feels like everyone is against me…i need some advice and comfort please
