I swear by Allegra hives. It’s literally been the only anti-histamine medicine that has let me function normally. That paired with Pepcid.

Before I knew I had endometriosis, I suffered from postpartum hives. I mean the most excruciating hives for a whole year. It only went away cause I got pregnant away. I could only function after taking the Allegra hives 24hours pill.

It’s weird no other anti-histamine would work and I tried EVERYTHING!

They sell it Amazon, not really in stores anymore (or atleast where I am?)

This condition has changed my life so much so. I kinda almost lost it on someone today. I was at a group outing with acquaintances. I haven’t talked about my endo because I’m still trying to exist. It’s been so debilitating it’s kinda making me like… numb.I don’t feel like myself anymore.

Anyway there was a heated discussion about womanhood and femininity (which happens often in the group) about something a TikTok video (I don’t remember).

I hear someone say something about a woman’s uterus/organs don’t make her a woman blah blah and that it’s the least important thing that makes you a woman. Now I could care less about someone seeing me as a woman. But I took 4 Advils before I came out. I have to wear a belly band so tight to walk it feels like my whole fucking uterus is about to fall out. My bladder has been weird for the last month now (I’ve read endo can spread there).

MY WHOLE LIFE. My WHOLE IDENTITY without my permission has now become about my organs. I could give 2 fucks about being a woman, but here I am experiencing something that feels worse than the 2 unmedicated births I did. Idk why such a stupid convo made me want to cry 🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩

Endo has made me connect to my uterus in ways I never knew possible. It’s made me feel so many emotions and thoughts I never thought I’d put together. I feel like a new side of me without my consent has risen.

I just felt so fucking angry at such a dumb convo. I don’t think I can handle these type of convos anymore. I’m actually a very confrontational person, but I just went home. Ppl noticed I was upset and I didn’t even bother letting anyone know. I don’t want to project my own experiences onto whatever is there’s. I think I’m ready to move on as a whole. Just because, yes once upon a time I had the mind and space to critically take in some conversations. I can’t anymore. This pain has changed me.

I feel like I’m on hold. I’m waiting to exist. What’s crazier is there have been family in my life downplaying this pain too. I immediately stopped talking to them. I feel like I’ve been halted by something that’s always been in me and is now turning on me.

I don’t have any set opinions, but I genuinely feel pissed off. I’m scared of potentially losing my uterus.

It’s so exhausting…. I don’t have an endo specialist anywhere near me either. I’d have to take a plane or drive hours for anything to be done.

Endo has opened my eyes on how severely underfunded women’s health is. It’s opened my eyes to so many women’s experiences I feel so incredibly guilty and sad….

I’m tired. I’m tired of words. Im tired of discussions.
To have given birth and experience something 100x times worse than it has changed me.

Does anyone else plz feel like this….

People will understand your pain when you’re pregnant, but endo??? They act like you’re lying. It’s incredibly dehumanizing….

The most useless thing on the codm app. The thousands upon thousands of credits you don’t use. I’ve been playing for 2 years now and I rarely ever use it. Also there’s never anything really good to use it on.

I suggest this since Activison are cheapos. Just like you can exchange the legendary shards within three tiers with limits. Do the same with credits through a limited form.

1,000 = 10CP (max 150,000 credits)
2,000 = 10CP (max 200,000 credits)
3,000 = 10CP (max 250,000 credits)

That’s just an example idk what they would do, but pleaaaase. So many people who want different
types of guns/skins would love this useful option.

Thank youuuuuuu

This the hardest thing I’ve ever done in my life 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭. I’m on day 3. Every 10 minutes doesn’t work. Every 20 minutes doesn’t work. Every 30 minutes doesn’t work. She still thinks the pull-up is a diaper. We get her to successfully pee in the toilet. 5 minutes later she poops in her pull up. On day 2 I did get her to poop on the toilet, but omg… trying to potty train with a mobile 7 month old. Wow. Wow. And she’s suddenly going through a personality change. Like a completely different temperament and it’s making me go ?????

Just straight confusion. I know kids change but it’s so drastic and random I feel like a loading sign.

I just need to vent. I can’t see the horizon…but I know I can do it. I’m not gonna stop. Idc. She’s 4 months away from 3. My mom potty trained my severely autistic sister at 2.5!!!!!!!

I was a teenager and had no clue obviously. I just remember one day seeing her potty trained. I called my mom crying yesterday, “ILL PAY FOR YOUR TICKET COME HERE HELP MEEEEE!”

Omg the way she laughed. Like how the hell…..

I can do this. Like Thomas the train. Choo choo. Chugga chugga chugga choo choo. You can do this. I can do this.

I got this.

I knew my baby from the beginning was going to be delayed because of her stomach issues from a young age. She crawled late and walked late. Idk mommies intuition.

She holds great eye contact. She understands directions great. She started pointing pretty late (like around 27 months). If I say let’s go brush teeth she knows what that is. Anything I ask for her to get she can get. She can ask me for any foods (in gibberish) or juice/water. She can say hi daddy, hi mommy. Bye etc. She knows a lot of words, but her conversational skills aren’t there. I mean she can say what’s this? And once I teach her what it is she knows it and never asks again. I feel like I only understand her gibberish. My husband struggles sometimes.

Her vocabulary blew up these last 3 months I will say. I have an occupational therapist already (I tried to do early intervention, but because she knows a lot of words they didn’t go through with it). She has an issue with a lot of foods and only eats her safe foods. It’s a miracle if she tries something new. She used to eat well until she got covid at 15 months. Ever since then her eating habits changed.

So after her language explosion her echolalia became a LOT. At first she’d repeat things I say and then use them in the right context. It’s like she’s trying to learn the language basically (which I know that’s the purpose of echolalia), but it’s fascinating to see her brain working.

To get my attention she says hi mommy. So if she wants anything or just my attention I hear HI MOMMY all day long. I say hi mommy to her so she can say it back to me. For awhile she’d say hi mommy repeatedly (to get my attention), and I’d respond back hi (her name). All of a sudden she’s now saying hi (her name) to me now. So I’m back to saying hi mommy back to her.

I realized I got to say things in first person for her to understand and pick up the language.

I have an autistic little sister that I’m 17 years older than. I raised her up until she was 4 so I know the extremes of autism. My little sister not only used to never sleep. She would repeat things in an extreme manner. Again and again and again until it kinda drove you insane. She was super hyper too and hurt herself a lot. She was non-verbal and tbh we learned after she became closer to 5 that yes she was very intelligent and did understand us lol she just didn’t care.

I couldn’t help, but compare my daughter but they’re sooooo extremely different that it trips me out. Yes she’s slightly delayed compared to other kids, but idk yet. My daughter can play with her toys by herself. She can do imaginative play. She plays very well with her 9 month old brother. She’s gentle and giggles a lot with him. She helps me with everything. She rarely has tantrums only if they don’t go her way. And that only recently started the last 2 months (I’m assuming a symptom of 3).

I’m trying to potty train and idk if that’s making her nervous. She had two really big tantrums yesterday. I tried to cut things out and omg she threw huge fits. She would usually go to sleep with a sippy cup with water. I cut it out completely and omg you would think it’s the end of the world. I used to have the TV on all day and she’d still play, but i had to turn it off since it’s distracting her while we potty train.

I’m wondering if that’s making her echolalia suddenly worse. Shes just repeating back what I say to her. This is only when she’s on the potty though. I also think she might be going through a growth spurt. Whenever she’s about to learn something new she goes crazy for a week and turns her usual chill self.

I think the echolalia is tripping me out a bit.

I feel like a black hole. After my last period I’ve been eating non-stop. I usually NEVER have this type of appetite unless I’m pregnant (and I’m not). When I was going through my last period (that felt like death), I had to eat carbs to satiate the pain. I was on a high protein diet and that wasn’t working. Once I incorporated more carbs, the pain became more manageable. It’s been 2 weeks after my period and I still feel pelvic pain. I’ve noticed my appetite has gonna crazy too. I read some people experiencing the same thing. I’m thinking it’s my hormones going crazy, but I’m losing my mind. I’m 7 months pp, I lost 25 pounds so far and I don’t want this ruining my progress. I’ve had a SHIT 2 weeks of eating and I feel guilty. Something is telling me to listen to my body, but nooooooooooooo what kinda symptom is this!!!!!!!

10/10. I think it taste waaaaaay better than regular coke. I was genuinely surprised. I thought it would have that off brand taste (which I actually don’t mind and do like). But something about it tasted like coke from my childhood. I really liked it!

I don’t drink coke anymore because idk why one day it just started tasting waaaay too sweet. I’ve been a Pepsi pal for years now.

I got it from a dollar tree and was curious. Idk if they sell this at regular stores. Do they??? I have a Kroger and Meijer nearby.

Hello! I’m (32F) once upon a dumbass that used to not understand why new moms couldn’t hang out with friends…. Or why she suddenly went ghost. This dumbass is now a mom. If I could invent time travel, it would be just to go punch me in the face (in 2012).

As a form of repentance every time I talked to my mom for the first year of motherhood, I started my phone calls with “sorry” instead of “hello.”

Yea my mom loved that.

One thing I WILL say I’m proud of. I would say the more I grew up the more my opinions of mothers became more defensive. I got pregnant as a surprise in 2023. The trend of bashing moms began in 2020, I would say in my friend circles. I started noticing it then. I was the only one married in a group of 27-34 year old women. It was a huge group (like 20+) on this app where we talked day and night in. The way they used to bash random moms was unreal. It literally changed my brain chemistry. I had no interest in becoming a mom at that point, but I just felt weirded out… how women were blaming women on their choices. Or like if a man did something messed up they’d end up bashing the woman instead.

My stance on motherhood was simple. I can’t understand or fathom the pain of pregnancy so I can’t judge these women. I really can’t. I would rather keep my mouth shut. What did she go through while healing?

I used to always have bad periods and I concluded that wow.. pregnancy must be the biggest shit show of what a uterus can go through and if PMS fucks me up like this once a month??? I CANT IMAGINE THE PAIN OF RECOVERY FROM GETTING PREGNANT. That’s it. That’s all it took to defend moms for me. Cause how can anyone be sane after that? lol.

So thank you past older me. You’re kinda cool I’d be friends with you. Young teenage me didn’t understand shit. And this is why brains should develop!! It’s crazy… my young twenties I was basically just a OLDER teen. By like 26 I was like ahh… OK.

Anyone else have regrets on their past opinions?

I had my second baby just 2 weeks after my first baby turned 2. I actually wanted to be 1 and done, but uhh… yea it happened. I’m ABSOLUTELY done now :).

I kinda went into survival mode from the sheer shock of being pregnant a second time. All I could think about was how to get through the first 5 months of the baby being born (the hardest stages for me with my first). This time around I knew what I wanted to do. What I didn’t expect was how much my toddlers tantrums would kinda help me out ahahaha.

I let my first baby sleep waaaaay too much during the day. She didn’t sleep well at night because of it. I mean 3-4 hour stretches multiple times throughout the day and when night came… yeah. I thought you should let babies sleep. Never wake them up. Turns out if you want to sleep at night you should cap the naps. Baby can be slightly tweaked slowly with some help until their circadian rhythm comes in.

Shoutout to my toddler who would wake up the baby. She unconsciously helped me sleep train my second 🤣.

Like I would try not to get stressed at first, but after awhile I noticed the more lighter nap schedule I followed during the day. The baby would sleep much better at night. Also my second is a fomo baby. He was breaking his neck at 2 months old to see what was going on. The minute he would wake up from naps he’d want to know what’s going on. The complete opposite of my daughter who LOOVED her naps.

The toddler needing more attention also helped me put the baby down more. I have back issues from NEVER letting down my first. She had severe dairy allergies and reflux. All her naps were on my husbands chest and my chest as well… yes you can imagine how hard it was. She started sleeping through the night at 15 months. It just kinda clicked for her I guess.

My second is much easier because I prioritized working on her nervous system the whole pregnancy and regulating my emotions. I wouldn’t say they were out of control. Let’s just say I have in-laws who are very very good at rising my blood pressure. Big mistake. I learned tho the second time. So it was very easy just by transitioning into a safer space for me and the pregnancy.

I’m really proud of myself. My baby is 7 months now and I genuinely haven’t gotten upset, overly stressed or emotional. It’s actually kinda miracle 🤣

When it would get just a little bit stressful. I would just keep reminding myself this is temporary. I was a baby too. I cried like this too. It’s ok. They cry and it’ll be over soon. Just like that it does stop and they’re happy again.

My almost 3 year old and baby keep each other company now. She loves him so much and it’s crazy how much more advanced he is because of her.

I can even shut the bathroom door to get some privacy down when I need to go! I never thought I’d see this day. She used to cry bloody murder.

Anyway just wanted to share as someone who thought their life was ending with 2. In a way yes it’s easier cause you’re already doing it. 2 does kinda feel like 1. I can’t imagine 3…. LOOOOOOL. no thank you!

lol… can someone help explain? 4 years ago during my worst binging episodes. Every time I’d see my mom (which was like once every 3-4 months). She’d say, “OH you lost weight you look good!” When I know for a FACT I gained weight. I’d sit there in silence. And it was ALL the time… i have an almond mom. My whole life she’s constantly brought up my weight or what I eat or accuses me of eating out when I wouldn’t that day…

Like the most bizarre conversations. I live across the country and she’d randomly be like, “you need to stop eating out.” Ma’am… I can’t afford to eat out anymore I have 2 under 2. And it pissssessss me off.

I know how to talk to her and ignore her random comments. I have a 2 year old girl and I’m terrified of her saying anything to her in the future…. I’ll never forget being 6-7 and looking down at my body and wondering why grown adults were making comments about my body… I don’t ever want my daughter to have the realization.

The crazy thing is I was never obese or chunky as a kid. I was normal healthy weight. My siblings were just STICKS… like incredibly skinny.

I had an extremely devastating, relief worthy convo with my mom once. It finally made me let go of her. Like nothing she said matter after the convo. I was heavily pregnant and she called me. I sent her a picture of me in like the 7th grade. My dad found it and texted me it. I remember how old I was cause of the glasses I had on in the pic. I begged for them and they were expensive.

I ripped up a lot of pictures of myself when I was teen because I was made fun a lot from my siblings. I was shocked to see this picture, but I was so happy to see it. Immediately I remember saying to myself, that’s me…it felt great saying that with a solid heart.

My mom.. you know what she says. “That’s you? No way you’re so skinny. Have you always been this skinny? Why did I think you were so big? This is you? why did you appear much fatter back then you’re so tiny…”

She was in disbelief. The whole convo she couldn’t believe it. She even sounded bad lol. I just kept staring at the pic as she talked. I didn’t even cry (later lol), but the adult me needed to hear her delusional take.

I’m free from her words now. This lady is nuts. That’s it. It felt like I was released from jail.

I’ve lost 25 pounds so far and I refuse to let her know about my journey. I want it to be sincere and personal.

But like why do people do that? It’s not only her it’s been others too. When clearly I’d be the biggest person there… and when I did lose weight not a peep. When I gain, oh you look great!

This is why I don’t trust most people’s judgements…

Also. I’m 32(F) btw. I survived a body shaming apocalypse (the 2000s) like most ppl from back in the day. If you weren’t like SICKLY skinny you were fat. I’d wake up being called fat, called fat from teachers, fat from siblings, fat from random adults and go to sleep being called fat. My skin naturally had to turn into steel. I also had to get good at being mean ;)

She sometimes sounds like a doctors note, but will say some VERY random words very clearly. First ever letter she said clearly from the alphabet was “W” …. Huh? This was when she was 1. Out of every word, “skekfjoa🎶dkjdjs.. W.. djfksksjd🎶” very scary. Her choices of sounding out words correctly is a day to day basis thing.

I talk a lot and I talk a lot to her. She’s tryna yap back to me and all I can hear is scribbles if it was a language and some yababdabadoos thrown in.

Looking forward to 3.

It’s been more than a week since it ended and the aftermath is making me depressed. My bowel movements have gone to shit (not literally I wish). The constipation is actually REALLY REALLY annoying. I had no clue constipation can be this bad. It’s like my body is having a really hard time digesting. I know what this is now. It’s really bad inflammation going on in there. It’s incredibly hard to poop. I learned loud sounds coming from your stomach is actually from your intestines that are upset. Whole last week my stomach won’t stop grumbling. My whole insides feel off. I’m someone really in tune with my body and this has been very weird for me. My stomach/intestines are acting like they hate me right now. The nausea is absolutely the worst too. Also back pain??????? WHY BACK PAIN??? I rarely ever get back pain. So this is kinda fascinating but also like what the fuck… I keep feeling zaps from my uterus and butthole 🙂. Not fun.

I genuinely want to stop eating. I’m at my wits end. I don’t even want food to enter my body. Just to stop this gross unnerving feelings going on.

I’m still sore from this last horrific period. It feels like I finished a 3 day marathon down there.

I was just starting to see the light too from being 6 months postpartum. Now I’m like 🫠.

A period can be this destructive? Really?

I’ve causally had my jaw locked… for over a year. Yea. It all started when I got pregnant in April 2025. When I say locked I mean I could only open my mouth to a certain extent. Not to full capacity. At first I was alarmed but dismissed it as pregnancy symptoms. This was my second pregnancy. Also I didn’t mind because I don’t live a life where I need my jaw that wide open anyway. I could eat with no problem. Sometimes I’d get the urge to open my jaw wide and would get annoyed I couldn’t, but let it go.

Literally a year and some change later it randomly unlocked yesterday. I felt like this… drain? I can’t describe it. And boom I can fully open my jaw again. This is after an excruciating period (literally thought I was dying all 3 days). It’s slightly sore from not being able to be open fully for awhile.

I have an odd case. I was told I had endo when I was 12 weeks pregnant. I didn’t know what it was and shrugged it off. After I gave birth my life changed forever.

I had a failed epidural. The guy stabbed the needle in the wrong area. I’ve never felt pain like that before the whole right side of my body went on fire. I literally froze in shock. I was being pumped with pitocin that makes your contractions a hundred times worse. They couldn’t stop pumping that into me because they were afraid my contractions would slow down. I screamed for 2 hours straight. I thought I was dying multiple times.

What if I said my last period was maybe 50 times worse than giving birth NATURALLY???

I felt my vagina RIP at 10CM and didn’t cry, but my last period I was shaking from the pain. BREATHING IN AND OUT trying to help the pain. Cried so much I genuinely couldn’t believe pain like that existed.

Atleast contractions come and go. Whatever the fuck I experienced my last period made me question reality.

To think some of you are experiencing something worse than birth once a month is insane. And I got the worst version of a natural birth. A failed epidural is brutal, but I’m sorry… it comes nowhere near endo.

I’m telling you natural contractions is NOTHING compared to this pain. I’d trade natural contractions for whatever the hell this is. Don’t ever let a single soul minimize your pain. This is beyond fucked up.

When I was pregnant with my second I was going through a routine checkup you do when you go in at the 12 week mark of pregnancy. My doctor casually asks if I’ve ever been diagnosed with anything. I go no. She says but you have endometriosis right? I go no? Confused, but she goes and writes it down in my chart anyway. Idk why, but I never corrected her.

Move forward to today I suffer from some of the worst period cramps I’ve ever in my life have faced. I had a failed epidural (the guy stabbed my spine), contractions with pitocin (contractions on 1000) unmedicated and I screamed for what felt like 2 hours straight holding onto dear life.

This period is a 100 times worse than giving birth. I genuinely have never felt more excruciating pain than what this period did to me. My life has never been the same after my second pregnancy. It all began after I felt my cervix/urerus shfit one day. I’m someone who’s very in tune with my body. I literally felt it move in the middle of the night. I told my OB and she thought I was crazy. Lone and behold when they try to do a cervix check. They couldn’t put the finger in regularly. They had to lift their fingers up at a angle and dear god. HORRIBLE. I could cry afterwards after every check. I used to not even flinch at them before. But after the shift they had to push their fingers harder and to an angle afterwards.

Also after I gave birth something was different. It felt like my uterus never healed. I felt my uterus shrink properly with my first. My second time. It was severe. My uterus felt like a huge open wound unwilling to shrink and heal. I felt this dread immediately. I had 40 days of excruciating pain. I had to eat so much food. It felt like my body just wanted me to eat to feel better. And it did kinda help.

I’m on my 3rd period from being postpartum (6 months). My husband had to stay home for 2 days. I genuinely felt like I was having a heart attack from the pain this week.

I’ve never been this shocked, breathless. It’s day 4 and my whole abdomen feels like I got injured. It’s beyond sore. If I cough or sneeze it’s as if I did a thousand situps. It’s where my uterus is. I never knew that lower part could feel this sore. It’s where they cut you when you get a c-section. That whole part feels like the muscle is wrecked. Sore beyond what’s normal. I can’t walk properly.

My stomach muscles hurt too. Not like a stomach ache. My intestines hurt too. I couldn’t poop properly without lightening pain going up my butt. I’m in shock. Why is everything in there inflamed??? Like a chain reaction.

I’ve cried twice. I went into survival mode as if I’m giving birth. I had to use the breathing techniques to get through it. Atleast contractions are forgiving. Contractions go in and out. This is one long consistent pain that doesn’t stop. Pain meds over the counter weren’t working until I ate considerable amount of carbs. Sugar worked even better. Idk the correlation, but that’s what’s been helping the pain subside better.

I haven’t been diagnosed for it yet, but I’m literally thinking back at my doctor telling me I had it before I even knew what it was.

I’m so terrified of my period coming…. I want to cry just thinking about it. I’m trying to get the Mirena IUD. Just anything to help… I’ve been bedridden for 4 days. Unable to walk, bend or even function. This is horrific. I’m so sorry for anyone that has to go through this. I truly am. I’m being serious this is a hundred times worse than birth. This is unforgiving pain……

I’m (31F) 6 months partum. Second baby. My last 3 periods have been excruciating. I used to never ever in my life get cramps. Even after my first baby. I’d get like muscle spasms from blood clots moving, but it would be fast.

THIS… is torture to a point I keep getting reminded of my horrible birth story for my second. My epidural failed while still on pitocin. Every contraction was x100 until I pushed. I screamed for like 1 hour straight. A nightmare pain.

I’m not even joking these periods are on par. I genuinely feel like I’m giving birth. It feels like contractions at 5 centimeters.

I’m shaking my hands, I’m convulsing and screaming in pain. My husband is always shocked and my poor 2 year old cries. It’s only the first 2 days of hell, then the 3rd is fine…

I have to take advil every 3 hours or it’s hell.

But idk what this is. I wanna cry, but I go into survival mode. As if I’m giving birth. I literally do the breathing technique to get through a cramps. That’s how I get through them. It’s like getting stabbed so hard in the sides. Like a monster is inside.

Because this is the 3rd period I’m concerned all of them are always going to be like this :(

It’s freaking me out….

I lost 22 pounds from it. 190 to 168. I kept it off for 5 years! And then life got stressful and the overeating started.

What I did that helped me was the very low impact workouts. I would lay on my bed and do horizontal scissor kicks until I got tired. Legs up high though not low. Arm Pilate workouts that weren’t that hard. The repetitive nature of the workouts was what mattered. The goal was to feel my muscles burn. I didn’t want to stress my body out too much. I would just keep going until I worked up a sweat. Everything seated. I would sleep 8-12 hours too. Btw I remember how great I felt doing the fast. It felt like my body was kinda thanking me for the reset. Also sleep was amazing.

Literally that’s it. I sat a lot, but I did a lot of horizontal scissor kicks.

I think my weight stayed off because I naturally always kinda did omad anyway. Now that I know about calories though. It’s so incredibly easy to overeat. Like I never knew cookies (I’m a cookie fiend) could betray me like that 🫠.

I used to always go YEAH YEAH YEAH… to calories. Like it wouldn’t click, but now that it does I’m just stunned. There’s calories from opening doors. I just woke up 10 calories right there. I can’t unsee. I was child before calories. Now I feel like a soldier in district 9.

Damn you calories.

It’s just so hard to start a water fast. I don’t understand how I was so determined before. I think what I eat before one matters. Any tips?

I have 4 sisters (5 girls including me) and 1 brother. Yes he was spoiled. Yes we used to complain when my mom would only make us clean and say, “he’s a boy leave him alone.”

He had extreme behavioral issues we noticed from a young age, but my grandma and mom ignored it. Once again he was heavily spoiled.

When we entered our late teens and it was his turn to turn 18. My mom thought this guy would magically become a MAN. Please laugh with me.

Not only did his verbal abuse increase overnight. He refused to go to college and work :)

She was shocked. Yea. The sisters weren’t.

He’s 33 now and she still takes care of him like he’s a toddler. He’s much nicer now, but I have a theory that extreme coddling causes brain damage.

I genuinely have a deep deep hate for men because of my brother. Idk why I convinced myself I’d only have girls. That biologically I can’t produce boys. NO WAY.

I had a daughter first and son second. He’s a cutie. 6 months on earth. I just will not be doing what my mom did. I love my kids. Just really scared of having a son. I’ve seen people say they did everything right and it’s what influenced them outside of the house that changes them. That pisses me off

I saw what they did to my brother. They literally disabled him by doing everything for him. I’ll never forget that entitled rage. Sometimes I used to think he was capable of offing my mom. It was horrible days.

Anyway something like that sticks to you. It changes you. One thing I will be focusing on is being very strict on being fair with my kids. Growing up with unfairness in your home, I think chemically does something to your brain. I was scared of my mom, but I knew what she was doing was messed up. Like something REALLY wrong.

Any advice on raising sons???

My mom tells me my dad fked me up by putting a little Coke on his finger and giving it to me as a baby. She said since then you’d run after anyone to get a sip of soda 🫠.

I used to love coke than one day it started tasting too sweet. Switched to Pepsi. I kinda dig Dr Pepper now, but I love the taste of Pepsi. Out of all the diet drinks diet Dr Pepper is good.

Zero sugar Fanta is elite. It’s what I occasionally drink now cause full sugar sodas don’t go with me (as someone tryna lose weight waaaa).

When I see a 2L I think to myself…. How fast can I finish it? BY MYSELF. So yes I banned myself from 2L.

I’ve turned more people than I can count into soda drinkers. They would judge me at first and then get some and now they love soda. I’m not proud of this… but what can you do. They all said the same thing. I make drinking soda look so good. I genuinely love it so much. My husband used to think I was insane. If I could afford eating out but with no drink included I’d ditch the food and get me two drinks cause wtf… eating food with no soda is crime. I legit don’t care.

Anyway why am I finding this subreddit now… I’m laughing at all the posts.
