My ex shut himself in front of me and survived AMA

EDIT: i meant to type shot, not shut.
I’m 28, it happened when i was 19, he was 27. Destroyed my life, but i rebuilt it from scratch and got a lot of support and now im with my soulmate and we have a beautiful baby together who is about to be a year old in august. I’m extremely proud of myself honestly and id love to answer any questions you guys have. I think talking about it can be helpful sometimes for me because i never really get to, people dont want to hear about it cuz it’s really heavy.

EDIT
More info:

He shot him self because he was on a lot of drugs and not in the right state of mind. He had been clean when i met him but i s extremely young and didn’t know anything about addiction or what i was getting into. He relapsed while we were together and was not honest and our relationship was going downhill. I was threatening to leave and it was just… bad. I didn’t know anything at all and i did my best but with what i know now- i did it all wrong.
He had a miraculous recovery but definitely had some clear brain damage. He shot himself through the occipital lobe so it drastically effected his vision. He was in the hospital for months, yes. It took me a very long time to cut him off because his parents kept us apart. I was clearly traumatized and not handling it well and of course she wasnt either and came to really hate me, and kept us apart which then drove me absolutely insane. We finally got back in contact after about a year and it was just… really fuckin bad and he was really awful to me and raped me through coercion multiple times and i finally found the strength to cut him off and leave.

Extensions that look like natural boy lashes

Ok i saw this one lash tech on tiktok on my fyp that did this incredible custom lash map and I’ve never seen anything like it since and i can’t find the original either.
But yknow how men tend to have like incredibly thick and long lashes? They looked like that. They were def using brown lashes but i have neverrrr seen anything look so realistic since. If you have pls show me in the comments

[reccomendations] i need to replace this perfect discontinued bra: gilligan & o’malley favorite pushup balconette bra

EDIT EDIT: i measured AGAIN and was way more careful this time and it came out to a 34DD or a 36D
(12 year old me is crying happy tears)

EDIT: after using the ABTF calculator, my correct size is a 34D (suggested starting size) and a 36c as a secondary fit.

Guys i need help replacing a discontinued bra because i keep wasting money trying to get the same design and fit and it never works.

The bra:
Its the gilligan & o’malley favorite pushup balconette bra. The ONLY thing i didnt like about it was the itchy lace bands. They featured a molded cup with a seamed lace overlay. I think the gore was like a plunge, its low.

Why its unique and what i cant seem to find in another bra:
It fit my east west/side set breasts really well, it didnt make them look too close together like most bras do. It also gave them a lot of projection without flattening the fullness on the bottom. Every time i get a balconette bra it just makes my breasts look smaller or flatter and weirdly shaped instead of perfectly projected and rounded.
I like the padding and push up as well.

If i can find a bra that doesnt make them look too close together, it doesnt give me the projection and its usually a balconette…
The only bras ive found that give the same effect have noooo padding and i really want the padding 🥲

But any other kind of bra usually makes my breasts look too far together. And the underwires dont even reach the outermost part of my breasts.

About my breasts:
I am a 36b, i can fit into a 34c too
I definitely have east/west and side set breasts- i can fit like 3-4 fingers between my breasts
I have a wide root and i think it might be like extra extra wide… or maybe extra extra wideset?
Center full
I believe i have moderate projection but they dont look like it until i lean forward and then its like oh yeah thats definitely projected lol
I also have a lot more fullness on bottom than i do on top so they can look kinda like pointy from the side if that makes sense.

Heres a photo of the discontinued bra. Please. Halp. I need a replacement and something that’s comfortable so i would prefer no lace bands, but if it fits the same and only has lace bands thats fine. I also love me some wider straps for comfort but thats a preference not a need.

It will not let me add photos to this post but i can share a link to a listing of someone selling the bra im talking about here https://www.ebay.com/itm/306975346435
