I have PCOS and other issues going on . I had a endo appointment this morning and their concern was more about the pregnancy than anything . Three doctors came in grilling me about the pregnancy . (Not at the same time ) The doctors saw on my chart that I was pregnant the beginning of the year .

All of them were men, the last man he was very adamant about knowing what happened . So I told him I lost the baby , I didn’t say nothing else because I didn’t think I had to say anything. Which I didn’t want to disclose whatever. Even after me not wanting to discuss the pregnancy the doctors still will not stray away from it . My anxiety has been really bad these past couple of months . So now my hands are sweating and I am nervous . He then said he’s going to call the OBGYN that I was seeing and ask what’s going on.

They’re more concerned about the pregnancy than anything else . So now they’re about to give me a pregnancy test . I had my procedure done in Chicago in the beginning of the year . It was very much legal where I was located at.
I am currently still here waiting . The vibe is really off lol crap is weird . Ive been in here for almost 3 hours and it’s just full of suspense

Before my car started acting crazy, my friend told me her plans for her birthday. I told her I wanted to do my best to make sure she enjoyed her birthday because she hasn’t really had a good one in a while.

We made these birthday plans a couple of months ago, but recently I started having some major issues with my car. She doesn’t drive, so the original plan was obviously to use my car. At the time, I had no problem with that because I love driving. The problem is that the things she wants to do are out of town, almost two hours away. I’m already taking a risk driving my car to and from work because the issues are pretty serious. I cannot afford to drive 100-200 miles and potentially put even more strain on my car or end up stranded somewhere.

She knows my car has been having major issues, but she’s still adamant about going out of town. I feel really bad because I genuinely don’t want to let her down, especially because I told her I would do my best to make her birthday special. I’m even working a 12-hour shift on her actual birthday, and I was still willing to give her my entire Saturday to celebrate with her, even after having a hectic week.

I understand that it’s her birthday and I want her to enjoy herself, but at the same time, I feel like she should be more understanding of my situation. I’m not refusing to celebrate with he r I just don’t feel comfortable risking my car and potentially putting myself in a worse financial situation for a birthday outing. Am I wrong for feeling like she should understand where I’m coming from? She said there’s nothing in our city that she wants to do. She said it’s too boring here. I suggested something here but she got upset.

Growing up I wasn’t taught much and endured tons of trauma etc.. I wont get into that but fast forward. I started attempting to try to figure things out on my own. I also lived my life for my siblings and parents a lot . Now my parents are deceased and I’m almost 30 and I’m lost as hell.

I work everyday. I am in trade school , I’m pretty smart according to others lol. That’s neither here or there but I feel like a complete failure . I went through homeless this year when my last parent passed away. I’ve been living with a friend , and I feel like a complete loser . I am working all of these long hours and in school and I just want to know when does all the hard way pay off. I am TIRED. I know life isn’t easy and life isn’t peaches and cream but I am tired. I feel like a complete loser.

Not to mention on top of all this my freaking car is about to break down. That’s literally the LAST thing I need . Growing up for some reason I dreamed I would be this age and my whole life would be together. I would have a home a job and whatever else. Boy was I wrong. Please tell me I am not the only one that feels this way. Like what the heck…

Anyone know of any plants that are hiring? Seems like it’s about who you know.
I also have commercial license. Local gigs have been hard to get on to. I’m assuming lots of drivers are choosing to get off the road . Joined a Facebook group , and it sucked someone messaged me about a hotshot driving gig tried to ask for my social number and banking info. This person did not want to give anyone more details about the job though. Which I thought was weird .

My car has been having terrible acceleration , gas has been running out super fast. Coils and sparks were replaced. The acceleration has been horrible takes almost 1 min to accelerate after Stopping . Especially going up hills the car literally will not get up a hill. Takes a really long time. I have to take the interstate often and it takes me a while to get up the ramp.

While in drive the D is blinking really fast. It has gotten worse after adding transmission fluid and more coolant . It does this every other day . I have gotten my car hooked to a diagnostic machine 3 times and nothing is showing.

Autozone read as a pass pass fail . I literally cannot afford a new car right now. Has anyone experienced this before? If so how did you fix it . I only drive to work and school but I am afraid that one day my car may not start up. It also makes some really loud noise from time to time.

For some reason when I started to get things fixed on the car seems like bigger issues occurred I know I am being dramatic but honestly the car wasn’t as near as bad. The car is 7-8 years old though .

Got my results back today and I’m just 2 points over. Which placed me to have a mild case I was already told about my large tonsils .

My study had notes are recommended me to do CPAP therapy and also to see a ENT, which which I’ve posted here before and keep being told no about the tonsillectomy. Been seeing a ENT forever trying to suggest them to remove my tonsils . Now that I know I really barely even have sleep apnea but was diagnosed with insomnia 3 years ago .

The study said my oxygen was normal but RDI was 15.1 . Although my AHI score is super low it’s only 5.2 . Positional therapy was recommended . Has anyone found positional therapy to help ?

Not sure if this post is allowed but can someone please share the best route to get certified . Ive been a caregiver for about 6 years now . How did you guys find companies that were legit with training? I am In Louisiana. I keep running across these ads on Google but everything I click looks like a scam. I've been doing research for a while.

The company that I currently work at did offer CNA training but no longer offers it. Should I just attend a community college or find a company that offers the CNA training ?

I’ll be using WatchPat tonight for my at home sleep study. Doctor told me results take up to two weeks . I was wondering has anyone gotten their results back faster? This sleep apnea crap is pure torture. Not sure how long I can deal with this. I am ready for my results and to find a solution. I am sick of dealing with this. Plus the freaking sleep paralysis has started up again. This mess is annoying.

Hi everyone I’ve posted here before. I had a sleep study done one time never received the results for some reasons. I’ve seen a ENT before also but they will not remove my tonsils due to my age. The doctor said it’s super painful . My tonsils are super huge I was told it could be from genetics. Problem is my tonsils are so huge they’re having a negative impact on my airway. My friend recorded me and I was basically gurgling in my sleep. My partner has also mentioned this before. I snore extremely loud , somehow I can sometimes wake myself up from my snoring which is insane . Fast forward my new doctor scheduled a consultation for a sleep study.

I was told I 100% have sleep apnea just from listening to my breathing and seeing my tonsils . I also was diagnosed with insomnia a couple years ago. For some reason these past couple of months the tiredness has been unbearable . No matter how much sleep I am getting I am still tired. The night sweats and getting super hot in the late hours of the night. Today I was barely able to drag myself out of the bed for work.

This upcoming Friday is when I was told to come pick up the equipment for the at home study. Although I was told I will not know my results until 2-3 weeks from now. Unsure what I should do . This mess is draining . I am just tired. I am 25 years old and this sucks . I do not drink coffee or energy drinks , I do take vitamins but honestly none of that helps. I need the root of the issue solved. Also not even sure how long it would take me to get the machine

I have been extremely tired lately to the point where I am having a hard time getting out of bed for work . It is horrible. To make matters worse I also may have sleep apnea . I do not get my sleep study done until next week.

I am so tired of feeling tired every time I wake up for a full nights rest. Two things are playing against me. I am over this crap. What are you guys taking as daily supplements ?

Edit : to clarity I was diagnosed with PCOS a few months ago . I also have issues with my
Tonsils being enlarged which may be leading to me having sleep apnea . I am getting a test ran next week . I take a one a day vitamin I also take myo - inositol , I also take the berberine . I am also on metformin .

To my unknowing my close friend has been going through abuse from her baby father. Me and her would hang and talk all the time but she’s a mom and gets busy. I never knew he was the reason we stopped hanging out. Which isn’t important I just want her to be safe. Today she randomly text me saying she needs to talk.

Turns out her baby father added a tracker to her car he is abusing her. He is cheating on her. Admitted that he planned to get back with her just to cheat on her bc he saw how well she was when she detached from him.

He said if he catches her with someone else he will beat her . I am so worried about her I’m unsure of what I can do and she’s really scared of him and I do not know how to help her without making things worse . Please give me any suggestions. I actually am really scared for her . She said she cannot get the tracker removed because he will know. He also threatened to put cameras around her home.

Not sure who else knows about this but apparently she told her mom and I so far. I just want to help her but I do not want her to get hurt . Please help you guys I don’t want to lose my friend and she’s a mom and someone’s daughter sister etc .

Edit: she said he actually went to jail before but he got out . She said she had a restraining order on him and it expired . I’m assuming she is afraid to go file another being he has a tracker on her car .

As the title says, I recently moved out of an apartment complex due to safety concerns and several other issues. The property owner is a family friend, and I was renting on a month-to-month lease with everything documented in writing. Anywho .

Before I moved, I submitted a change of address with the USPS. Unfortunately, somewhere along the way, the post office dropped the ball.
Fast forward to now: I have USPS Informed Delivery, which lets me see when mail is being delivered to my address. I was actually shocked to receive emails showing that several important pieces of mail were still being sent to my old address.. super frustrating ! Because I knew I had already submitted my address change, I went back to the post office. They told me the manager would call me, but I never received a call. EVER.

I then contacted the office at my old apartment complex and explained the situation. One of the employees told me no one had moved into my old unit yet, so she said she would retrieve my mail and let me know when I could come pick it up. That was over a week ago. I understand everyone gets busy but seriously… how long could it take her to go grab the mail out of the box?

Since then, I have still not received my mail. I have a fairly large check… along with several other important documents, that I know have been delivered because I’ve seen them on Informed Delivery. She also told me she would call me when everything was ready, but she never did. I called the office myself, but no one answered. Eventually, I stopped by in person, and she claimed she had been trying to answer the phone when I called.

At this point, I’m beyond frustrated. I’ve been patient throughout this wholeee process, even though neither the post office nor the apartment office has followed through on what they said they would do. The issue started because USPS failed to process my address change correctly, and now I’m left trying to recover mail from a place where I no longer live. To make matters worse, this isn’t the first issue I’ve had with this apartment complex. When I lived there, I went months without a mailbox key because of their lack of urgency. There always seemed to be another excuse for why I couldn’t access my own mailbox. It feels like I’m dealing with the same pattern all over again, and I just want my mail.

Edit: to clarify I did change my address with the post office and also places directly. I’ve done things that I had to do. Somewhere along the long a ball was dropped. Maybe it’s not my old complex fault idk I’m just a bit upset because I’ve never had this issue before ever.

Why is everything so goddamn expensive. Why are studio apartments $1300 for a studio apartment?? I am looking for somewhere affordable it is only me I do not have any pets or children . Are there any recommendations? I honestly would prefer utilities included. I am just not a fan of paying $1300 for a studio .

I am in Louisiana and I know that I believe recently the abortion pill was made illegal. People did continue to order them up until , the law was made that even the abortion pills couldn’t be ordered. I may possibly be pregnant my cycle is supposed to come next week. I took a plan B but it did not stay on my stomach . So there’s that.

If I do turn out to be pregnant , I was going to get the pill. I’m actually super embarrassed and upset with myself because I had my first ever surgical abortion the beginning of the year .

I finally decided to have intercourse this month after not doing so for months and it was just my luck the condom broke. I am super frustrated and just hoping that I am not pregnant . The crazy thing is with my last pregnancy I was weeks pregnant and the test were all negative .

Up until almost 8 weeks … I am not trying to have another surgical abortion. I also have started a new job recently . I cannot afford to fly somewhere and get an abortion. I do not want to have to take off from work. I am also in school . Any advice will be greatly appreciated thank you.

Edit: It’s horrible that we’re so limited to what we can do when it comes to our bodies. I honestly hate that.

I had a long conversation with someone I’ve been dealing with for a while, and it made me realize he’s the best man I’ve ever had in my life. Looking back, I see that I pushed him away and said hurtful things because I was carrying a lot of unresolved pain. Which I took out on him .Lame asf ik. I took accountability and apologized .

None of that was his fault, and I wasn’t fair to him. I’m in therapy, taking accountability, and working on healing. I was recently re-diagnosed with BPD, and while it helps me understand some of my behaviors. That I absolutely HATE. It’s never been an excuse for how I treated him. I don’t even know how long I’ve been living with it, but I know it’s my responsibility to do the work and be better. Although in another sub someone told me I was evil and I’m old enough to know how to control my BPD. Which I am not evil and I didn’t even know I suffered from BPD. That made me feel like complete s—.

He doesn’t know I deal with BPD yet but he knows about the other things. How do I explain this to him. Also I’ve seen some people say BPD is too hard to deal with.

He always treated me with kindness, communicated, stayed loyal, and accepted me for who I was. I love this man. I hate that it took me this long to yk.. I am just wondering how do I regain him. He’s made it clear he still loves me.

Edit: please no judging ,I just want to hear opinions outside of people that are stranger to avoid individuals being bias. Also I am not forcing him To be with me he wants us together and so do I. I just know I have some work to do.

I am in my middle 20s. Credit score was great until a family member used my information for a car and it was repo. (Sales lady was fired, long story) anywho.

I have spent so much money trying to hold on to this car simply bc it was my dad car and he has passed away. The car is no longer reliable. Transmission issues and tons of other stuff. I just started a better paying job while keeping my first job as PRN. Need a new car asap but due to a repo no one is willing to work with me. Also my better paying job I have not been there long enough.

I am about to get my paycheck in about 2 weeks and I was thinking about using cash from Yendo for a down payment along with my check from work . I have no need for keeping the car. Yendo is the only app I have seen I can get the most money with. I honestly don’t know if this is logical or not but I’m desperate. A vehicle is all I have. I’ve been homeless and everything. I need a car. I cannot afford to have no car. Please share experiences . I am also a student , I am just trying my best. Please don’t be rude.

Edit: there’s a few places in my city that will work with me . I know beggars can it be choosers . I know how important credit is but I do not have any options. A vehicle is super important. Without a vehicle it would be extremely hard for me. Being I work in different areas all the time almost.

I’ve been having issues with my car that has been super pricey I’ve came to terms I just need a new vehicle. Only issue is I have just started a new job with a new company. The income is there but the time at job isn’t . I still hold my other job also but pay isn’t as great as the new job.

What are some used car lots that I could try? I am in the credit rebuilding phase and credit is not really at my best interest right now. I have even looked at outer cities , nothing but a bunch of scamming places. The places that are willing to work with me do not have the best reputation. Drive time gave me a quote of a 8k down payment, my credit isn’t the best but it’s not a 4 haha . Please give me some suggestions. Car is on its last leg and this is all I have to get to and from work.

edit : has anyone tried Facebook market? I know a few of my friends recommended that. That seems even scarier .
