Please Make Dua

So, recently this week I found a lump on my stomach. I think it might be a swollen lymph node but I'm not sure.

Anyway, tomorrow I'm going to the doctor to see what it is. I'm really nervous about it. I'm scared that it could be a hernia or cancer. If someone could make dua for me, I'd really appreciate it

Any Advice for Training?

Hello, I am seeking advice for preparing for the highland games in my area. This will be my second time competing and I don't want to die like I did last year. Basically, I didn't train at all last year and said f*ck it and signed up on a whim because it was something I've always wanted to do but never had the chance to. I won first place as a novice and now I want to compete again.

My problem now is that I only have a month and 1/2 to prepare. I practically died last year and don't want to this year. Is there any advice anyone can give me so I'm, 'less dead' by the end of it? (If it helps: I'm female, 5'4 and 300 lb (please don't judge me on my weight, I know I'm obese 😢)) Anything helps 🙏

I used to wear jilbabs, khimars, abayas, niqabs, and hijabs all the time but I've recently been sticking to wearing a turban because of recent political issues in my area (mostly conservative Christians in the small town I live in) and also my current job doesn't really give me the option of wearing jilbabs on a daily basis like my old job did (I work with machinery).

I miss wearing them. I feel lost and alone. It doesn't help that most of the Muslims I know in my area are either thinking of leaving or actually in the process of moving. One sister I've known since the start of me reverting is moving and didn't even tell me. I understand that she has kids and a family but it kinda hurt that she never told me...

And now the small masjid we have may or may not stay open because people rarely go to it. I..feel so alone. I haven't been praying because I've just been depressed and sad about everything. I feel like I can't connect with the other sisters at my mosque because they are much older (maybe other than one sister I talk too sometimes).

Has anyone else had or felt like this? If someone could tell me they have it would help a bit.

So, recently in workforce I got a notification that my schedule from May 11-17 had been changed. Before that, it showed I was working three days and now it shows nothing. Am I getting fired or is this a glitch or something else?

So, recently I've been going to the gym more recently because I'm training for a sports event. It's the highland games. Basically, your throwing logs, hammers, rocks, etc.

Anyway, one of my close work friends said that she found this activity attractive. I just stood there and kinda was processing what she said. I still don't know how to feel. Like, it's been literal YEARS since a girl has said anything like this to me. It's weird that it to suddenly happens after I fully accept I'm not straight. How do I go about this? I might delete this later, idk. I'm confused 😢
