Ugh I have no words, I hate fucking OCD and "magical thinking" I just lost my dog, I held him all night even after he took his last breathe so he wouldn't be alone. I loved him so fucking much! The problem is my OCD and "magical thinking" my curse is: I believe if I weigh a certain amount everything in my life will be okay and even good. But if I go over. then everything turns to shit. I know it isn't my fault and I know I didn't kill my dog, but my stupid fucking brain keeps telling me I did, and it's my fault because I didn't try hard enough to stay at that perfect number to keep him from dying. I'm over 40 years old I know this isn't fucking real, but at the same time it feels so real. I wish more people realized that this disorder is a thousand times more complex than " I just want to be skinny and pretty" bullshit. I'm too old for this, but every time something bad happens this is where my brain immediately goes and I can't stop it. I was just holding him all night watching him slowly pass ( he was already under medical sedation by our vet while we waited for test results) and all I could think about was please please please I promise I won't ever eat again, just please stay with me, I promise I will be a better dog mom by not getting fat so you can stay here with me. How fucking pathetic am I? And I'm a fucking ATHEIST!!!!

Was looking at prices online for months, dealership was the best priced, out of everyone hands down. went through the online purchase and screenshot every step to include the final price with taxes and fees and showing all options declined. Went to dealership test drive the car and decided I wanted to proceed with the purchase. At this point sales associate advised me I have to include the appearance package it's mandatory I can't decline. Escalated to the manager at that point I advised the manager they can't force someone to purchase an additional add-on. he then tried to tell me it's legally required! Excuse me what?! Asked him to repeat it. He says yes it's legally required by law that you purchase the appearance package, asked for him to put that in writing. At that point him and the sale associate walked away and effectively refused to sell me the car at that point. I had to go to another dealership because they wouldn't assist me any longer. Bought a comparable valued car at a higher price because they refused to honor the price. Researched online about this dealership and found out they were one the 97 dealerships the FTC sent a notice of warning about deceptive pricing back in March.What are my odds of getting treble damages because of this? The difference in car prices at the dealerships was $3k x 3=9k through a demand letter from a law firm? Or should I just get an attorney and file a suit?
