Please don’t be mad at me. In the last 5 years I had two ob/gyns tell me there’s no way I’d hit menopause. Symptoms: cystic acne, skin barrier changes, insomnia.
Doctor #2 thought I might have high testosterone, and insomnia is so general it could have just been caused by existing on planet earth. Doctor #2 ordered a hormone panel.
Y’all. I am fully post-menopausal. My doctor and I were both stunned. I can only figure the universe is making up for the fact my period started when I was 10.
But seriously—I think staying active/exercising/strength training and my IUD baby helped shield me from the worst of it. So I guess it’s possible to go through menopause and have no idea. 🤷‍♀️

Hi! I have my first client in a wheelchair. She is amazing and knows her body well. One of her goals was to learn the cable machines. She is also legally blind.
I have no problem training her. The issue is she keeps asking me how she can work out independently at the facility where I work (community gym). It’s been over a week now with her asking me the same questions and no answers from my boss. I’ve just been given a bunch of resources to research. I feel like that is not within my scope of practice. I’m not an accessibility consultant. You hired me to train this woman and I’m doing exactly that.
It’s actually keeping me up at night that she’s going to keep asking me questions I can’t answer. I tried to schedule a meeting with my manager and she has pushed me off twice. What do I do at this point?

This is far less serious than many things posted here but it’s four days later & I still don’t know what to make of it.
I was going into a food hall the other day and this guy turned around after entering the building and said “I could rip that door off its hinges you know.”
Okay??!! Sir I didn’t ask you to do that.
I was wearing a tank top and have fairly muscular arms…was he trying to best me or something?
It was so damn weird. Why are men.

I did a search here & know it’s been talked about before in different ways. But I am still grasping to understand why he does this.
DA discarded me last summer & finally in the past couple months I went fully no contact. I stopped following him on Instagram. He is part of a group chat but never responds to anything I say. He used to like my posts at least periodically but nothing at all now. I think he got the hint I want him out of my life.
He used to watch my stories on once in awhile but now he watches them every. damn. day. Every one of them. And I know I can block or restrict him—I’m not in that space right now. I just am trying to understand what the hell this behavior is about. I guess it’s orbiting. But like, he led me on & then didn’t want me. We’re not friends. What does he have to gain by peeping on me like this?!
