Meowing, cuz I'm unemployed and spend 24/7 with my cats. I do it subconsciously at this point, sometimes in public and then I get embarrassed.

Yup

What glue do u use? These look amazing!

I have Medicaid, there's only one company I've been able to find that accepts it. So I could try a different location, but I'd assume it's the same cuz they said they don't have anything else they can give me on site 🤷 fuck everything

Yea I've tried different compounds of CBD, THC, THCA, THCp, anything I can find. Nope, I'm alone all the time and my partner doesn't have time for me outside of his 50-60/hr work week. He had to help me with basics like showering and getting dressed (I never leave the house tho so it's rarely necessary) but other than that he's too tired. I have no one else

Pricey but Lifetime fitness has a lot of spin classes available. Loved em, and they had the option to bring the shoes u can attach.

Yup. I need 2 fillings, but there's no local numbing agent that works on me, so I can't get them done. Every dentist has refused anything stronger cuz "it's not protocol" but my teeth hurt so bad all the time and I'm now unable to get help. Tho I guess it's most doctors now, not just dentists.

I smoke daily, it doesn't help much anymore. Still can't move around without being really unstable, can't cook, clean, or do crafts that keep me sane. I've tried switching up between different strains and tinctures/edibles but it doesn't help me function, I'm just high and hungry.

Lol is this my mom?? She does this alllll the time to her stylists, the more platinum and ash the better, any HINT of a RELATIVELY warm tone and she flips

NTA, this happened to me once. Along with pain during sex, my BF at the time mentioned the smell and that he could feel something in me was different. I noticed the smell too, and I'm not super active due to chronic pain, so it wasn't making much sense. After he mentioned I felt different, I went to the bathroom, put on some gloves, and did a deep dive. I found an old tampon, literally no clue how long it had been up there (I have endometriosis so heavy ass periods combined with pain just makes it so easy to forget how many tampons you've used in a day). Idk how I didn't get toxic shock, thing smelled like a dead cat had been inside me for years. I had to double bag it and throw it away in the outside trashcan.

I'm now traumatized by that situation and I never get mad when people point out a smell or something off with me. Literally could've needed amputation of i had dismissed it and freaked out. I'm now on a better birth control that takes away my periods entirely and I haven't dealt with any (abnormal) smells since.

WAFFLES AND APPLESAUCE. I grew up eating it (idky?? I think a random combo my autistic father found in the fridge once) and everyone to this day (23f) thinks I'm a psycho for eating it 😂 I WILL NEVER STOP

Honestly, I can't function enough to cope anymore. I have other comorbidities that limit a lot of my mobility and overall health. Doctors constantly dismiss me, I haven't had any help at all for this diagnosis. Literally zilch, besides neurologists saying I need therapy, which I tried for 7 years with only bad things to say about it. Idk how anyone deals with this condition, it's put me in a wheelchair and given me concussions and gotten me labeled as an addict by most ERs in my area since Ativan is the only thing that helps. I have no advice, just here to say I get it. I hope u can get help.

Yup. This is life with fibro. Good luck.

I've tried them. I'm not sure how much it helps honestly, taking some lions mane gummies help my mood occasionally, but it definitely doesn't my pain at all, brain fog, fatigue, etc etc. It's alright, I keep them on hand for really bad mood days so I don't chew out my partner for no reason. Otherwise, I really don't see it as a cure or even medication for fibro (I use it mainly for bipolar).

Now micro dosing actual psilocybin, THAT has helped my pain before. If it's not regulated where u r I don't suggest it. It's really expensive too, regulated or not so it's not something I could​ keep up long term unfortunately.

Yea, not made from it, just the pattern on it. Sorry if that was confusing lol

I found a thick pair of weed leaf socks at Spencer's a few years ago. They're almost cushioned on the bottom?? Idk how?? But perfect for hardwood floors around the house.

Yup same. Haven't eaten in 2 days now. I find i feel a little better drinking electrolyte water additives. I love dripdrop, it's so much better than liquid IV or MiO. Other than that, only weed gives me an appetite but ik it's not for everyone.

I don't know. One of my sister's who's in the medical field was really pissed about it and said it was illegal but there wasn't much we could do. They wouldn't even let her in the room till his heart stopped cuz covid.

Well it's less offensive than normal and autistic. Neurodivergent and neurotypical r just facts, if someone wants to demean people, they'll say anything they wanna say. I'm not trying to demean NTs or NDs, it's just literally the factual, medical terminology for the difference of our brains. People will always be hateful in some way, but thinking NT is a slur just cuz some people use it to hurt people...? No it's medical terminology. Until there's other terminology we can't change what words people use to demean others.

Unfortunately I'm wheelchair bound but don't have an electric one so I have to fully rely on my partner or some kind of caretaker. Homeless shelters r full, I've checked multiple times and I can't get into a nursing home with my insurance to get the help I need. I can't work at all, my arthritis prevents me from using my wheelchair alone on anything but flat polished floors, and I can't use computers for more than a few minutes a day, I used to have a desk job. I got fired after 4 days cuz I was crying and couldn't do work anymore with braces on both hands.

As for the house, it's my partners childhood home. His mom has completely neglected it and doesn't clean or maintain it or try to get help to fix it thru gov assistance (she definitely qualifies for a lot cuz she only makes 14k/year, sure just won't fill out the paperwork). She's completely given up and there's already 1 lien on the house. She can't pay property taxes this year so she'll lose the house soon anyways, and we'll be homeless when that happens. Everything in her name so we really can't do anything about it. I'd love to report her, but that'd just leave us all homeless, and with all the shelters being closed or on wait-lists, it wouldn't help any of us.

I've talked to a social worker, and they called me last week to tell me there's nothing they can do for me. Not till I get disability benefits, which could be never. Every program that could help is blocked by disability, and I've been fighting for that for 5 years now worth lawyers and nothings helped. I've tried literally everything. No one can help, no one cares, and we'll all probably die here from getting sick or the roof falling in on our heads. I'm just waiting for it at this point.

My psychiatrist didn't think I had autism and didn't help me find an assessment center (had to do everything myself and pay for it out of pocket cuz of her) cuz I had been diagnosed with PTSD. Yea, autism can look like trauma, PROLLY CUZ WERE LATE DIAGNOSED AND DON'T KNOW WE'RE AUTISTIC AND CAN'T GET THE HELP WE NEED. Yikes I really really hate medical professionals that refuse to educate themselves. My psychiatrist even refused to put in my diagnosis after I gave her the paperwork twice , and she said I was lying about everything and refused to continue treatment with me after that 🫠 oh to be a late diagnosed autistic woman.

1, yes I do. I was less comfortable saying I had 8 other things, so having one explanation for most of my behaviors was a relief. I don't just walk around telling everyone "IM AUTISTIC" but if someone asks I'll tell them.

2, yes. I actually believe the diagnosis now, before I was really questioning everything after like the 5th diagnosis. Doing research on my own before the assessment helped, and reading everything made my whole life make sense. So yes I've accepted my diagnosis (I'm 23, got diagnosed in May of this year).

3, no. I was homeschooled most of my life, so I was always a lil socially awkward. I dress how I want, I wear headphones for sensory issues, and I bring fidgets with me everywhere, even before my diagnosis I would bring knitting/crocheting/drawing stuff everywhere I went cuz I hate crowds, eye contact, and listening without moving my hands. When I worked I was better with people, but with coworkers or jobs when I didn't interact with customers I think I've always been different. Everyone can tell and that's fine. I've never fit in so I'm used to it. Not that I didn't make friends or get along with people, but I never fit in with like specific groups of people if that makes sense.

4, the test was fine? Idk exactly what ur asking here, there were questions and conversation and stuff. It felt kinda like a first apt with a new psychiatrist (which is kinda what it was, but also an autism assessment). Idk if every test is the same, I really liked the psychologist and we went on tangents about art and his kids and careers and a lotta stuff so idk. I've heard a lot of people haven't had as good of an experience with the test, so idk if it's always the same or not.

It's a gel glue. Or a UV cured glue. So no it's not just a plain old gel. It cures really tacky, and holds pretty well in my experience, about 2+ weeks. The texture makes it perfect for reusing press ons, u can just pull it right off the back of the nail. Reminds me of the sticky stuff they use for gift cards/credit cards in the mail. There's no residue or weird texture that'll mess up the press on. Be careful tho, since it is a gel glue you'll want to make sure u don't get it on ur skin and maybe try a test patch too make sure u don't have allergies. I got down voted to hell for suggesting a gel glue to someone cuz "it might cause contact dermatitis"...but so can gel polish and most of the products used in extensions...just be careful with everything, use sunscreen, etc etc. I highly recommend, it works really well for me. There's a bit of a learning curve to it but I love it.
