Ex boyfriend (30M) wants an abortion, I (28F) want to keep the baby but I am scared to raise the baby on my own
2024.05.14 12:34 Bubbly-Emu95 Ex boyfriend (30M) wants an abortion, I (28F) want to keep the baby but I am scared to raise the baby on my own
I am currently 6 weeks pregnant with my ex boyfriend of 2 1/2 years. We spent the last 2 years having sex almost everyday without contraceptives, as we were ready for any risks, we were not actively trying, but not actively preventing.
We decided to take a break due to arguments over the past month, and on our last day together, we had unprotective sex (we didn’t have sex for 3 weeks at that point). I took a test upon unusual symptoms and missed period, and discovered I am pregnant.
I informed him last week and I think he’s still in denial. He asked me to go for a scan to confirm so he can tell his parents and he has expressed that he doesn’t think it’s a good time for him, and I should get an abortion. He is not ready for fatherhood and doesn’t see that we can work things out in the future. I encouraged him to reconcile, not as a couple, but as civil adults to make communications easier in the following weeks or potentially years. He refused and told me I should talk to people for advice. I have spoke to my best friends and I don’t have a solution, I don’t know what to do. I don’t want my child to grow up without a father figure but I also don’t want to have this kind of father in its life. I only had one sex partner my whole life so there is no possibility that he is not the father. I’m personally also not ready to raise the child as a single mother without support. If this pregnancy happened few months back, I would not have the same doubts I currently have. I considered abortion after the conversation with him but I don’t want to end my own child’s life because of our unresolved issues. My family don’t live in the same country as me, so I will not have day-to-day help. My friends are supportive but I don’t think it’s realistic for me to raise the baby without a partner. I have all sorts of concerns and I am not in the right headspace at the moment to be thinking clearly.
For context - I (28F) moved in to live with my boyfriend (30M) after 2 years of dating, we barely had any disagreements throughout the first 2 years, we were both in love, and decided that we were ready for our next stages in life so we moved in together. We were certain that we were compatible despite our differences in interests - we are very different people in the best ways, and grew to love and learn of each other’s character. Our lives are very intertwined, and our respective friend groups are very involved in our lives. We had a healthy lifestyle and socially active ever since we got together.
Fast forward to 2 months ago, we were discussing wedding plans. We previously agreed that we would move in together > get engaged > married > have children. I expressed that I didn’t really want to move in together until I get a reassurance from him this is for lifetime, he told me not to worry because he already had plans to propose to me and it’s ok to move in first and then get married as we are living together. He suggested that we could plan the wedding first because weddings take at least a year ahead to plan, and the proposal will happen sometime later this year. Our first big argument came because of his unrealistic expectations and lack of logic and sense in event planning (he was never really a planner or an organized person, I do most of our travel logistics and household plannings).
Few weeks later I discovered that he was withholding his plans made with a colleague that I didn’t particularly liked, I felt strange that he had to hide this fact from me. I don’t believe that he was disloyal or anything but I didn’t understand why he lied. I exploded, demanded to check his phone, then I discovered more things he was hiding from me, including going on walks during lunch with the same female colleagues. I also discovered the group chat with his boys where they were making jokes about us getting married. I was livid and we argued over our definition of commitment, I questioned his maturity and his intentions to settle. He told me he was ready to settle with me, and suggested that we go pick out rings the next day.
The real issue came in when he called his parents to ask them for their blessing in our marriage. His parents disapproved, and called me materialistic, questioned my family, my social circle, my religion, my political views… etc. My boyfriend could’ve easily justified every one of the points they have made about me but I guess he was too in shock of their response to defend me. His parents never really agreed with our relationship to begin with, they never wanted him to date and thinks he should be focused on his career at this age rather than dating, despite this we spent every holidays and celebrations the last two years with his family and we thought they have grown to accept me as they had been very friendly with me, I guess it was all a facade. I was disappointed and lashed out at him. And somehow our previous issue with his ‘commitment’ was brushed under the rug.
He says he cannot propose to me when he doesn’t have his parents blessing. I gave him a deadline the next day to make a decision, if he cannot talk it out with his parents then I will have to let this end. He came back the next day, and told me his dad apologized and would like to reconcile with me. And he came back to tell me he was ready to settle.
The following weeks we continued to have smaller disagreements and I was still uncomfortable to face his parents, as he would return home a different person, and treats me worse every time after every time he had met up with his parents. Before all these issues, we had made plans to visit my grandparents and his extended family who were both living in the same country. On our way there, I expressed that I would want to remain with my grandparents and not join his family trip as I’m not ready to face his parents yet. He tried to persuade me to go and that his parents will apologize to me, but I was still very uncomfortable. I told him I’ll only go if he can give me reassurance and that I will only go on another family trip with him if he can give me the status as his fiancé before I can face them. He said if he were to propose to me now he cannot face his parents, and he told his parents he has plans to propose to me on this trip, but they insisted that they should reconcile with me before he can propose as I would potentially “steal their grandchildren away from them” in the future if we don’t make up. He told me he even brought the ring with him but he can’t do it. I walked away from him, I felt so betrayed and lost in a foreign country. I got very emotional and told him he made feel worthless and want to end my life. I was not in the right headspace after a whole month of torment and I didn’t have the energy to reason with him any longer. I gave in and proceeded with the rest of our trip.
The day before we went to meet his family, I told him I wanted to go somewhere else instead and I still wasn’t ready. When he was making changes to our tickets, I saw his sister’s message on his phone, saying that it’ll be better in the long run if he sort out the parents issue first and don’t propose to me yet. I snatched his phone and spoke with his sister. After I told her everything, she apologized and gave me the reassurance that their family will treat me with respect and will apologize to me the first thing they see me, and that they just want to reconcile before we move forward to the next stage in life. I felt it was reasonable and reassured after my conversation with her, so I decided to give it a go.
When we did finally meet up with his parents, they pretended as if nothing has happened. Few days later we finally had the ‘conversation’. His dad started off by saying he doesn’t think it’s appropriate for us to get married at the moment, and kept going on about their same points again, he said our relationship hasn’t been long enough for us to decide marriage at this stage. They claimed their comments weren’t a personal attack, they didn’t apologize and said that I was ‘thinking too much’ for this to be a personal attack because it was simply a generalization, then dismissed me for being upset for hearing from my bf because he wasn’t supposed to tell me, and proceeds to keep commenting about me and my friends and how they disagree with their celebrations of weddings.
I respectfully explained we are not having these discussions about marriage out of no where, we have been having discussions on marriage throughout our 2 years. In fact our plans to have children was the basis of our relationship and were his requirements, and we just want to move forward with the next part of our lives. His mom doesn’t think I need to think about having children at this moment and it’s not a good time for us to have children, because she had kids much later in life and apparently so is everyone else, and we shouldn’t be following my ‘timeline’ on when things should be happening. Apparently I should not have such control over the timing of giving birth ‘like a reproduction machine’, and it’s not right to have to set such timeline on how much time I need for recovery and time between having each children. She asks why do we feel the need and so early in life to get married now? And ditch your own families and start your own life.
His dad said I should not decide right now how many kids we need to have and it’s rather in gods hands to decide, and some people are not even be able to have more than 1 kid, I asked him why is this relevant in regards to our plans to have kids… so I have to listen to god now and have kids without planning? And then he started giving this bs about god and how we are not meant to plan ‘these things’ out in life so specifically. I asked him: What is wrong with being practical and setting realistic goals. He claimed he doesn’t think it’s wrong to have plans but we shouldn’t be so set and ‘controlling’ over our own lives. He has experience and we should listen to the grown ups with experience… I knew the conversation wasn’t going to get anywhere as soon as he brings religion into this.
My boyfriend just stood there in silence. After the conversation ended we both walked away from his parents, he apologized to me and told me he’s sorry for any of the things his parents have said to me and I didn’t deserve it. He says he won’t listen to his parents anymore, and he knows how to make this right, and he will propose once we return to my grandparent’s place. I didn’t challenge him anymore because I that was the reassurance I needed from him, and I was happy that he was finally able to see his parents for who they are.
The following days of the trip, his dad tried to isolate him from rest of the family to give him the same lecture. Every time he rejoins the group I can see from his expression that their conversation did not go well, I didn’t comment. On the day we returned to my grandparent’s home, he told me he can’t follow through with his promises. And his dad told him he should feel guilty for making promises to me and be pressured into marriage. Somehow this convinced himself into thinking he’s not ready for marriage all along. I walked away from him and we spent 3 days apart before our flight to return home.
On our last day, we met up for closure, talked through what happened and we had sex. I told him I wasn’t ready to fly back home with him and I didn’t want to fall back into the vicious cycle of arguments, and that we should have some time to cool things down before we reconnect. We agreed to give each other some space and he wants to learn more about himself before he makes commitment to me as he doesn’t want to disappoint me again.
A week after he got back, he told me he wants to move out of our co-rented apartment, and he wants to break lease. I was a bit confused because I thought he wanted to work on himself, and him moving out essentially is an indication of a break up to me. He said if I don’t let him move out, I’m not giving him space to work on himself. I didn’t really have an option so I agreed. We didn’t talk afterwards.
3 weeks later, I missed my period, I took a test and was positive.

2024.05.14 12:32 Mundane-Squash-3194 tried yoga nidra… yet another “miracle sleep aid” that did nothing for me.
i’ve been suggested yoga nidra a few times but never got around to trying it because meditation is usually very hard for me, but i REALLY wanted to sleep tonight so i decided to finally give it a go…
i just laid there anxious and restless the entire time, trying to follow along with the soothing voice lately and relax but my racing thoughts were still louder. afterwards i went to the comments and saw sooo many people thanking the lady who made it, saying it was the thing that saved them from insomnia or anxiety or how it was a life changer etc and i was just like… cool. maybe there’s no hope for me
idk man i’m just getting fed up at this point, at least it usually comes and goes in cycles for me so once i get through this period of hell i’ll hopefully get a few weeks of somewhat decent rest.

Title pretty much says it all. I'm basically stuck in a toxic relationship with literally no support.
This is a long read, I'm sorry. It feels so good to finally be able to speak all of this out loud.
I've been with my partner for close to a decade and I would be lying if I said it was ever really great. A little backstory: we started dating in early 2017 when we were both 19 turning 20 and moved in with each other that same summer. We lived 2 hours away from each other when we met and our visits always consisted of me traveling to see her and eventually I moved to her city. She had a car, I did not. From the start, we struggled with infidelity (at the beginning it was both of us but I can admit that these days I'm the problem in that aspect), financial issues and just overall not seeing eye to eye. The biggest problem to date is the financial issues we have.
In the beginning, my partner was not diagnosed with anything and was really reckless (constantly quitting jobs, spending most money on weed and fast food, trying other drugs) and also very aggressive and messy (drama). I don't think I have to explain the amount of pressure and stress that put on me to make sure bills and rent were being paid while only making $11/hr while also trying to navigate her emotions and the never-ending drama cycle. I NEVER WANTED TO BE A PROVIDER and I made this clear to my partner on many occasions but I was still being forced to basically pay for her lifestyle. Her only response to my complaints about money was "everyone struggles, look at my parents". Her parents are decent people but definitely not role models when it comes to finances and neither are mine. I was young and in love and this was my first "adult" relationship so in my mind these were normal things that young people go through. I wholeheartedly believed that eventually she would come around and chill out, I was slightly right.
About 4 years ago she was diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) and it felt like maybe things were turning around. She got on meds and in therapy and it seemed as though things were getting better. Unfortunately it did not get better. Well, her emotional state got better. Financially not much changed. She went from getting and quitting jobs to just not applying because "they're not a good fit" and if I say anything about it I get called names and "not supportive". To be fair she will doordash from time to time but that money goes to weed and fast food. There was a time when I was pleading with her to just get a job and help me out and she literally told me that a good partner would basically just suck it up and deal with it because she's mentally ill. Apparently the years before she was diagnosed don't count as me sucking it up and dealing with it lol. She also will berate me and tell me I need meds and therapy but doesn't realize I need money to pay for those things lol. She has free healthcare through the state, I pay for mine through my job and it's not good.
Earlier I mentioned how she was the only one with a car when we got together and 7 years later its still the same way. Even though I'm the only one that works and I make enough to go finance a car, I can't. All of my money goes towards bills/rent and you guessed it, her car payment. After paying bills every week I can't even afford $250 for a road test for my license. I drive every day, she literally will refuse to drive if I'm with her. When things are good its our car, when she gets mad its her car and I can't drive it and I need to find a way to work blah blah blah. I can't talk to her about these things because all she does is say I'm blaming her for my problems and it's not her fault my mom didn't buy me a car as a teenager. LOL. But she absolutely is the reason I can't afford a car of my own and my mom not buying me a car 10 years ago has nothing to do with our current circumstances.
I stopped smoking weed and I'm trying to be more active (I'm overweight) and now I'm a narcissist according to her. I didn't ask her to stop with me or to start being active but apparently she feels some type of way about it. I can't express my feelings to her about how this relationship dynamic does not work for me or how I'm completely overwhelmed and exhausted without her deflecting and making everything my fault. I can't tell her how I don't feel cared for when she brushes my feelings off as nagging because she will call me a narcissist.
I've been having knee problems and could possibly need surgery, it that happens we are fucked and more than likely going to be homeless and without a car. I have a better job than before but still no savings and only enough PTO to last maybe a week. She's currently in school and doesn't work because it's too much for her.
The worst part of all this is the fact that I can't tell my family or friends what I'm going through because 1. She will be upset. She doesn't want to be judged and not be seen as "innocent, sweet, and caring". Those are her own words she uses to describe herself. Meanwhile she tells her family EVERYTHING. If I upset her in any way she's running to the sibling group chat. Apparently its ok for her family to form an opinion of me and pass judgment but not for my family. 2. I feel embarrassed. I don't want to be called a fool for dealing with this for so long.
Obviously leaving her is an option but I have no money and I'm 2 hours away from my closest family. I've pretty much lived my entire adult life in the city that I'm currently in, with her.

Even though I'm the only one that works and I make enough to go finance a car, I can't. All of my money goes towards bills/rent and you guessed it, her car payment. After paying bills every week I can't even afford $250 for a road test for my license. I drive every day, she literally will refuse to drive if I'm with her. When things are good its our car, when she gets mad its her car and I can't drive it and I need to find a way to work blah blah blah. I can't talk to her about these things because all she does is say I'm blaming her for my problems and it's not her fault my mom didn't buy me a car as a teenager. LOL. But she absolutely is the reason I can't afford a car of my own and my mom not buying me a car 10 years ago has nothing to do with our current circumstances.
I stopped smoking weed and I'm trying to be more active (I'm overweight) and now I'm a narcissist according to her. I didn't ask her to stop with me or to start being active but apparently she feels some type of way about it. I can't express my feelings to her about how this relationship dynamic does not work for me or how I'm completely overwhelmed and exhausted without her deflecting and making everything my fault. I can't tell her how I don't feel cared for when she brushes my feelings off as nagging because she will call me a narcissist.
I've been having knee problems and could possibly need surgery, it that happens we are fucked and more than likely going to be homeless and without a car. I have a better job than before but still no savings and only enough PTO to last maybe a week. She's currently in school and doesn't work because it's too much for her.
The worst part of all this is the fact that I can't tell my family or friends what I'm going through because 1. She will be upset. She doesn't want to be judged and not be seen as "innocent, sweet, and caring". Those are her own words she uses to describe herself. Meanwhile she tells her family EVERYTHING. If I upset her in any way she's running to the sibling group chat. Apparently its ok for her family to form an opinion of me and pass judgment but not for my family. 2. I feel embarrassed. I don't want to be called a fool for dealing with this for so long.
Obviously leaving her is an option but I have no money and I'm 2 hours away from my closest family. I've pretty much lived my entire adult life in the city that I'm currently in, with her.
2024.05.14 12:29 Loose-Asparagus-1106 Relationship patterns and repeated cycles - meaning?
This is about break ups with my ex. It’s not me really asking for opinions if we should be together or not as such. But I find the repeated patterns strangely specific and I feel like it means something. It’s probably going to sound superficial too, but these aren’t regular things. I’ve also never noticed any other patterns or cycles like this in my life.
Together over 2 and a half years.
First break up: - Friday 12th May 2023 - Saturday had my irregular hair appointment - Saturday night Eurovision - Wednesday Nail appointment - following Saturday had meet up with our friends that happens maybe twice a year.
He messaged me on the Tuesday after 10th and we were reconciled by then Wednesday.
Second break up: - Friday 17th November 2023 (almost exactly 6months after the first) - Saturday hair appointment - Wednesday Nail - following Saturday irregular meet up with the same group
He messaged Sunday 19th, reconciled.
Third break up: - Friday 10th May 2024 (pretty much exactly a year after the first) - Saturday had my irregular hair appointment - Saturday night Eurovision - Wednesday Nail appointment
None of these times have I been looking to reconcile, I haven’t reached out. I didn’t call or anything. In fact, I did the opposite. And I have no expectations of reconciliation.
But I would love to know if anyone else finds the simulators strange and what they might mean. It’s too samey and coincidental to be random to me.
Thoughts? Or am I just reading into nothing?

2024.05.14 12:25 Easy_Oil_6737 Narcissistic Abuse from Mother
For years, I've been enduring the torment of having a narcissistic and abusive mother. Her manipulation, gaslighting, and emotional abuse have taken a toll on my mental health, leaving me feeling lost and broken.
Recently, the situation escalated even further. My girlfriend and I were expecting a child, but my mother's interference led to her pressuring my girlfriend into aborting the pregnancy. This loss has been devastating for both of us, and it feels like my mother has stolen yet another piece of my life away from me.
I feel like I've been robbed of years of mental peace and happiness because of my mother's toxic behavior. I'm struggling to cope with the trauma and pain, and I don't know where to turn for help. I feel isolated and alone in this situation, and I'm afraid of what the future holds if I continue to let my mother's influence control my life.
I'm reaching out to this community in the hopes of finding support and advice on how to heal from this trauma and break free from the cycle of abuse. If anyone has been through similar experiences or has any resources or coping mechanisms to share, I would be incredibly grateful.
Thank you for taking the time to read my story. Any support or guidance you can offer would mean the world to me.

2024.05.14 12:21 UnicornsnRainbowz Took a coping test it was very interesting.
I took this coping mechanism test it was very interesting.
These are my results. Ironically, I am over emotional but this what I try to do to avoid being so emotional.
Detached Self-Soother
You carry a deep longing for emotional comfort, but your caregivers were unable or unwilling to fulfill that need. This has led you to be wary of relying on others. You have developed a coping mode that seeks to numb emotional pain by creating distance from difficult feelings.
You rely on self-soothing strategies such as distraction, avoidance, or numbing to regulate your emotions and alleviate discomfort. Your detachment allows you to maintain a sense of control and autonomy in the face of adversity, but it also leads to feelings of isolation.
Watch for these signs:
Emotional Numbing: You engage in behaviors or activities that numb or suppress emotions (such as overeating, substance use, or excessive screen time) as a way of escaping painful feelings. You find it difficult to identify or express your emotions, and have a tendency to dismiss your own experiences. Avoidance of Emotional Triggers: You avoid situations or stimuli that evoke strong emotions, preferring to keep emotional distress at bay rather than process it directly. Your life history has made you an expert at creating distractions, keeping your mind occupied by a constant stream of external stimuli. Self-Isolation: You withdraw from emotional intimacy, preferring solitude or superficial connections to avoid potential hurt. Your need to escape emotional discomfort leads you to neglect important responsibilities or obligations. Distraction Techniques: You use distractions such as hobbies or work to divert attention from uncomfortable emotions or thoughts, temporarily soothing yourself by avoiding deeper emotional processing. The Cycle of Detachment: By avoiding your emotions, you limit opportunities to develop healthy coping mechanisms. This leads to increased emotional vulnerability, further fueling your need for distractions and avoidance. Your coping mode provides temporary relief from emotional distress but also perpetuates feelings of disconnection and loneliness. Without learning healthy ways to regulate your emotions, you risk further isolating yourself from meaningful relationships and opportunities for personal growth.

2024.05.14 12:20 dojo_sensei Free Tech Tools and Resources - Azure/365 Doc Links, Diagram Editor, Printer Scanning & More
Just sharing a few free tools, resources etc. that might make your tech life a little easier. I have no known association with any of these unless stated otherwise.
But first, in the latest Security Swarm Podcast: "A Breakdown of CSRB’s Findings on Microsoft Storm-0558 Breach (PART 2),” is a continuation from last week’s episode where we discussed the CSRB’s findings on Microsoft’s Storm-0558 Breach. This week, we continue picking apart the findings and providing insights.
We're looking for your favorite tips and tools we can share with the community... those that help you do your job better and more easily. Please share your suggestions on the IT Pro Tuesday subreddit, and we'll be featuring them in the coming weeks.
Now on to this week's list!
A Free Tool
Centro 365 is a browser extension that makes it easier to find the info you need on Microsoft Azure and 365. Dintid explains, "My work consists 95% working in the 365 suite—in all of the sections. And being a small IT staff in a non-profit, it’s hard to keep up with the weekly changes MS are doing to naming and placement of stuff. Leads to my useful tool on a daily basis, an extension for my browser, which basically is just a drop down with the different sections and subsections. Clicking it and you go to the right url for it."
Another Free Tool
Mermaid is an online flowchart and diagrams editor that was designed to keep tech documentation current. TheRaido explains, "For documentation with diagrams, I tend to use Mermaid, which can be used in Markdown in VS Code and is also supported by Obsidian.md."
A Tip
A favorite Windows command for jonathanjohnson0724:
Yet Another Free Tool
WizTree helps you quickly find the files and folders using the most disk space on your hard drive. Rather than searching the drive and checking each file to determine size, WizTree gets its information straight from the NTFS Master File Table—which means it happens almost instantaneously. evilkasper finds it does the same thing as WinDirStat, but much faster.
One More Free Tool
Page Countster is a small, portable application for reporting on network printers. Provides a super fast, easy way to access info and interact with all the connected printers. tkecherson says, "For printers, I prefer an old freeware utility, Page Countster.

2024.05.14 12:07 Excellent-Bad-8401 My PFS Odyssey
Hi guys, I've come here time to time for the past 7 or 8 months whenever I feel symptoms or anxious and I guess it's time I shared my story, as there could be some things I learned along the way that would be helpful for folks. I'm a 30 year old male. I took minoxidil for 5 years from the age of 25. Once that didn't seem to be working any more I tried to get oral minoxidil and my doctor told me to get on propecia instead. I told her I felt a little scared about that but she said I'd be fine. I've always had a good libido, maybe too good, like bordering on sex obsession.. so I figured if anything a little less libido might do me good. Soon after I started the propecia I got a concussion (mild) from a soccer ball, and that was after a weekend where I tripped on acid, so there were some things going on. I had also had pretty bad food poisoning some months ago that took forever to heal from with some lingering tummy problems. Anyway, I had weird symptoms after the concussion. I almost felt like, euphoric. It felt like my brain was just releasing all of its happy chemicals at once. Part of my euphoria was an absolute disinterest in sex, but I enjoyed that, I felt like I was attaining enlightenment or something. I was glowing and productive. After a week or so all of this went away and I went back to having normal sexual health and normal (bad) mental health and I didn't really think about it again. Fast forward 6 months. I quit my job because I am depressed about it and life in NYC is suffocating me, I want to travel the world before it burns down, in the interim I move back home to get my affairs sorted. I had to dye my hair for some short film, and I hated it, when I cut it my hair didn't look good, seemed I'd lost a lot more than I thought, and that made me sad so I was researching finasteride (does this stuff even work?) and then I accidentally found this community on reddit... and it freaked me out. I had a full blown panic attack reading these posts. Then I started thinking about things that had been happening in my life. Increased anxiety and depression. Chronic prostatitis. And the development of IBS, especially bad after drinking alcohol, which actually led me to give up drinking for a while. My sexual health was fine, but I think the anxiety from reading the reddit posts gave me some weird sexual side effects, not joking. That same day I started feeling an achey tingling in my balls, as if they were swelling up. I remember going on a walk with a girl I was seeing and I just felt so off and couldn't even enjoy walking because of the heaviness of my balls and I didn't want to sleep with her at all anymore. I immediately gave up both fin and min, kind of sad because I had just bought a years supply of the stuff from one of those new websites that makes it easy. So with all this happening, I had also been planing to ride my bicycle around the world. I left for India about a week after cutting the hair drugs and cutting alcohol. And then I'm in India. Without alcohol, my IBS pretty much completely healed. I was making very nice poos. The cycling irritated my prostate though. I started off by going over the Himalayas which involved a lot of climbing and therefore a lot of my groin pushing hard into a bike saddle. Still, I was able to pleasure myself in the tent successfully, which I only did to keep tabs on my progress of course. Things were looking up. Leaving work and NYC and America already did a 180 on all of my mental health issues, as did quitting alcohol. My memory improved. I was reading and writing and thinking clearly. I was a happy guy. After finishing the himalayas I had a few beers about it with some friends to celebrate. A few days later I got some cramps in my abdomen, and then the next day severe food poisoning. Both ends type. So bad. Had to keep going though. I kept cycling through the mountains. For two weeks I had diarrhea, and then that turned into regular old IBS again, like always running to the bathroom never knowing if I'll make it on time and the poop is this sludge like texture. It sucked. I was also sad about my hair, as it looked like I was losing all my gains. I bought a fin/min topical mixture and started using that while I was in a meditation retreat. I started having that weird euphoric feeling again, but I attributed it to the meditation, which was really life changing but no need to elaborate on that. I also started feeling prostatitis again (burning sensation tip of penis, feels like you want to pee). I had fixed the tilt on my bike saddle to eliminate prostate issues so it was weird that it was coming back again. I figured maybe coming from sitting in meditative posture all day. I guess I was in denial, but after about a month or so I figured it must be the finasteride so I gave it up again and switched to just minoxidil. But then, the minoxidil was making me feel weird too. I remember one time, the very same night I applied minoxidil it felt like my asshole was falling out, like I had a rectal prolapse, now I think it's hemorrhoids. I had the hemorrhoid feeling for a while. Keep in mind, my main issue at this time remains the IBS. I also had very low libido but honestly I rarely saw attractive women on my trip so who knows. So I kept cycling, I cycled all the way from the North in KashmiLadakh to Kerala, the south. My IBS never went away. I tried all sorts of things for my hair. I went to an ayurvedic place and they put leeches on my scalp which was hilarious. They also gave me this weird ayurvedic oil with no real instructions. I think that must have had some DHT blocker in it because it gave me the weird feelings too, especially the hemorrhoid feeling. I started drinking oregano oil and taking copious amounts of probiotics, which would always help for a couple days against the IBS but I think the heat of the Indian sun killed them off while they were in my saddle bags. Then I found this new chemical combo in South India, starring redensyl and backed up with procapil and anagain. I figured what the hell why not. It came with a dht blocker gummy vitamin but it was just green tea with biotin and zinc so whatever. I started feeling a lot better on that. One random week I started getting insane erections and it felt like my dick grew an inch. Can't really explain what was going on there. Prior to that the erections were meh and I would cum sometimes in a half-noodle like state which was very sad. Anyway, that didn't last forever. Once I got to the very south I decided I needed a full system reboot and went to another ayurvedic place and got something called a panchakarma. In panchakarma you go on a very restrictive diet and they massage all of your body toxins into your gut, they make you drink a ton of ghee to help do this, and then they purge you, so it all comes out of your butt, and then in my case I got 5 medicated enemas. It's a two week process, sometimes longer. I know it sounds crazy but it definitely makes you feel better. I was also doing yoga and meditating every day which was super helpful. After that my IBS went away. I had to keep to the diet for two weeks after: no sugar, caffeine, gluten, alcohol or meat. After the two weeks I dipped my toes back into all those things and my gut stayed solid. Crazy. I also felt good sexually. I started taking another hair serum, this one with redensyl, anagain, procapil, and pumpkin seed oil. Still felt great. I flew to Malaysia and started cycling there. In Malaysia I just started feeling better and better. No IBS, huge erections again. In fact, I became obsessed with sex again. And it was depressing. I actually started missing the days when I had no libido in India. I was really able to focus on other things. Sex is such a waste of mental energy. I could drink alcohol again. And so I did, and had no issues. Which was great but I also was kind of sad about it, am I just going to be a sex-obsessed booze hound again? Have I learned nothing? Anyway, the story continues. No one is bald in Malaysia so I had to order more of my chemicals to feed my hopeless hair serum addiction. I found a crazy one that was stacked with redensyl, anagain, procapil, baicapil, capixyl, biotin, aminexil, rice water, rosemary oil, and .... saw palmetto. The saw palmetto was maybe .3% so I figured it probably wouldn't have any effect, especially since I was fine with the pumpkin seed oil. Anyway, 10 days into that serum I got the tingly swelly feeling in my balls again and some prostatitis too! Oy, back to the start it would seem. I'm mainly just upset because I ordered 3 bottles of that stuff and had to pay taxes on the import because it came from India, and now I guess I have to throw it all out? Whatever. Anyway, you can call me an idiot, but by using my body as a guinea pig I believe I've uncovered some interesting info for everyone. Just as the early men who figured out which berries were poisonous, I serve humanity with my tragic misadventures. Still cycling, hoping to go around the world and find new ways to mess with my hormones and keep some of my hair. My advice from this, do something to fully cleanse your system, like the panchakarma. We've basically tampered too much with our settings and need to do a factory reset. You can do a lot of that stuff on your own, fasting, purging, enemas. It stimulates your body into healing itself. Hell, go to India. In India doctors actually listen to you and treat you holistically, and everything is cheap! You can get rifaximin for 2 dollars should you desire. You don't need to keep getting gaslit by expensive urologists and gastros in the states your whole life. Just do something crazy. You'll stay depressed if you linger on the internet for too long. And if you're stuck in a job/life you hate, take PFS as a sign and excuse to be selfish and get out of it, think of yourself as a terminally ill person that just wants to live life for the little time they have left. Obviously I still have no idea if any of what I've experienced is actually PFS or if it's maybe related to the original food poisoning or the concussion or maybe even Long Covid. No clue. But I do think a lot of my symptoms have been consistent with what you guys talk about. Either way, whatever it is, treat your body well and you may heal. I hope? I'm currently sitting on a swollen sack hoping that the PFS Gods will be merciful once more, but I know I don't deserve it. My desire to have hair still hasn't gone away, and I keep thinking maybe if I try just one more thing that'll be the thing that works. And that's what keeps pulling me back into this mess. But at the end of the day I can thank PFS for forcing me to make the big life changes that have made me a much happier person today, regardless of the state of my pelvic area.

Regular periods offer valuable clues about hormonal balance and well-being. However, irregular periods can be a source of confusion and anxiety. This blog post aims to empower women with knowledge about irregular bleeding patterns. We'll explore what constitutes abnormal bleeding, explore the underlying causes, and discuss available treatment options. By understanding the factors that influence your cycle and seeking professional guidance by Obstetrics and gynecology services when necessary, you can take control of your menstrual health and achieve peace of mind. Defining a Healthy Menstrual Cycle: Understanding Your Baseline A healthy menstrual cycle typically falls within a range of 21 to 35 days, with bleeding lasting an average of 5-7 days. It's important to remember that this is a guideline, and individual variations exist. Factors like weight fluctuations can also disrupt hormonal balance and contribute to irregularities. However, establishing a baseline understanding of your typical cycle can help you identify any significant deviations that warrant further exploration. Identifying Abnormal Bleeding Patterns: When to Be Concerned:While occasional variations are to be expected, persistent changes in your cycle can signal an underlying issue. Here are some red flags to watch out for:
Several factors can influence menstrual regularity, and a comprehensive approach is often necessary for diagnosis. Here's a closer look at some common causes:
While occasional irregularity might not be a cause for immediate concern, persistent changes necessitate a visit to a healthcare professional. Early diagnosis and intervention are crucial for addressing any underlying conditions that may be contributing to menstrual irregularities. During your consultation, the doctor will likely perform a physical examination, review your medical history, and potentially recommend blood tests or an ultrasound to diagnose the cause. Don't hesitate to ask questions and express any concerns you may have – open communication is key to a successful diagnosis and treatment plan. Treatment Options for Irregular Periods: Tailoring Solutions The appropriate treatment plan for irregular periods depends on the identified cause. Here's an overview of some common approaches:
Irregular periods can be disruptive and a source of worry. However, by understanding the factors that influence your cycle and seeking professional guidance when necessary, you can regain control and achieve menstrual health harmony. Remember, a healthy menstrual cycle is often a reflection of overall well-being. Here are some key takeaways:

2024.05.14 11:45 TommyAtoms 45 [m4f] UK. It's all in the description.
Hey there!
I'm a young looking 44 year old guy from the UK and would like to speak to women around the 35 - 45 age group though that's not a deal-breaker.
I am 5'8, and of slim build. Brown hair. Often wearing glasses.
I have no children (don't mind if you do) and have been single for about 6 years. I have lots of good friends and am very sociable but I'm so over being single as I get kinda lonely, especially as I work and live alone, and that really sucks. Not really getting anywhere with dating sites and wanted to try this instead/again. Had a bunch of dates since Covid but don't seem to hit it off with anyone really
I'm self-employed and have my own small business. I live a nice relaxing lifestyle and try to play by my own rules.
For leisure I like walking and trekking in nature, cycling, good conversation, podcasts, vintage clothing, pubs & restaurants, techno & indie music, quirky cinema, reading graphic novels, doing abstract painting and sometimes a bit of cooking. Though cooking for one is depressing!
I'm into some sports (boxing, football, darts, horses, cricket and snooker) but my playing days are kinda behind me now.
Cannot stand social media and that self-obsessed culture. Working on my mental health.
I am one of life's talkers and think I'm also a good listener. I read a lot and i’m left wing in my outlook. Probably couldn't date a right winger. People say I'm direct and to the point and that I don't beat around the bush.
I don't really mind where you are from, even somewhere overseas, I'm just looking for a genuine spark and I have to try. I'm hoping to travel more next year as have been saving up for some trips overseas, probably to Thailand as I have a friend there. I feel I'm kinda living on the periphery of life, watching everyone else be happy and need to break the cycle somehow.
If you like what you hear then get in touch. Inbox is open! Pictures available on request.

2024.05.14 11:35 atmaninravi How do you balance the material and spiritual aspects of your life?
In reality, there's no balancing the material and spiritual aspects of our life. We are all born into a material life. We don't know anything about spirituality. Then in that material life, some of us get a spark of spiritual awakening. That realization of the truth, that spiritual awakening will liberate us from the material world. It will make us realize that we are not the body, mind, ego, we are the Divine Soul. This is our goal. Then although we will be living in the material world, we will be living as a Yogi. A Yogi is one who is always united with the Divine. You don't have to balance life between the material and spiritual world. It is like a seesaw. Only one side is up. We can't balance a seesaw for long. Therefore, we have to choose, whether we want to just live in this material world and die and return in a rebirth, or we want to live a spiritual life and be free from all misery on earth and the cycle of rebirth.

2024.05.14 11:14 SadDK54 Modelling internal metallic scrap recycling
 | Hello, submitted by SadDK54 to lifecycleassessment [link] [comments] I am working on a cradle to gate study of the production of metallic titanium parts by forging and machining. My study does not include the use phase and the end of life phase. During the manufacturing, many scraps are produced. Those scraps can be collected, sorted, cleaned and remelted to produce new ingots andcan therefore be considered as a co-products and not a waste. I wonder how I can model the “recycling” process of the scraps into new ingots. I know there are modelling rules for the end of life (avoided burden approach, cut-off approach, CFF…). - Does the same modelling rules apply on internal scrap recycling? - Does the recycling of those scraps make the need of less primary material in input if the scraps can be reused in the same process? - What if the scraps after recycling cannot be reused in the same process because the process is not certified to use recycled material? Can I get a credit for putting the scraps into the recycled material pool ? As an illustration, here is a figure from the “paper Impact of recycling effect in comparative life cycle assessment for materials selection - A case study of light-weighting vehicles” (https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jclepro.2022.131317). My question refer to the home scrap and process scrap referred as “c” and “d” arrows in the figure. https://preview.redd.it/gjh5ezedzc0d1.png?width=640&format=png&auto=webp&s=9cea6625db191e862664b53d61fca4a559ffa297 Thanks ! |
2024.05.14 11:06 expensivecookiee I found out my GF is an escort
I found out my GF is an escort
For context we both work together, and are together all the time. Sex was good, in fact she discovered her sexuality from me, we're both active, and goes hiking and cycling (I encouraged her to join me) and practically does what normal couples do.
I'm not the type of BF that goes through my partner's socmed or their phones, I give them my trust kaya sa una pa lang yun na ang non neg ko, break my trust and we're done. And we were ok, or so I thought.
This happened last year for almost 8 months I think from what she admitted. I first got this inkling that something was off when she bought an iPhone. Not that I belittle her, pero her salary isn't that high, I remembered telling her na baka naubos na savings niya because she bought it cash, she shrugged it off, I did not ask about it anymore.
She has this cousin who does modelling and she goes with her all the time. GF has got the looks and the body. She even asked if she can do one I agreed and supported her. That was done, so when we we're looking at the photos on her phone her cousin PMed her and she snatched the phone away from my hands like her life depended on it, that was the 2nd inkling I had. 3rd one was when I asked what is it about, she said it was about modelling and the terms there were beb and PR Idk what that means pero she was asking to get in to be one. But she sais it was some modelling stuff
Fast forward to yesterday, I dropped her off with her kid sa SM North, and uknowingly she left her phone, tumawag pa siya and humabol pa daw, but I didn't notice kasi traffic. So I called her, told her I can get it back (nakitext siya sa kiosk ng move it), sabi niya wag na, and just give it to her the next day.
Then something hit me, all those things that have bothered me came back. 1st one I saw, she was flirting with someone, asking when will they go out and stuff, she even said she's single. Now here's the A-BOMB
Remember the cousin? Their chat was a goldmine. So long story short she was fucking with an old guy. Sabi niya this happened 5-6times in the span of those 8 months. Naghahanap pa siya ng iba kasi parang matumal na yung isa. I sent her pictures of the convos, dineny pa niya, companionship lang daw. I told her nasa rel siya mag gaganun siya and she said she needed the money, for hospital bills ng father niya and yes she got hooked with the luxury it provided her.
I could've helped her with her father's bills.
This happened in the wee hours of the night, pagkahatid ko aalis siya ng madaling araw without me knowing.
Now she begs me to take her back. I dont want to, but part of me loves her still. Idk if this is still love or naaawa ako sa kanya.
Idk what to do. But yes I broke up with her.

2024.05.14 11:06 Nightflame_The_Wolf How to not feel envious of other men (and their masculine traits)?
TL;DR below
I very often find myself seeing other men and immediately comparing myself to them in many aspects.
I find male celebrities and role models very inspiring and comforting and don‘t think I could easily give up engaging with interviews and movies/shows of them.
Many of my best traits and qualities come from being inspired by them and they make me into a much better man. Healthy masculinity is one of the most important things in my life.
And yet 80% of the time that I see someone I admire I start feeling envious of their body, beard, hair, voice, mannerisms, charisma etc.
I‘ve tried many times to tell myself that everyone has their own path and pace and that because of my circumstances it would be impossible/hard for me to have those qualities yet. But it only comforts me for a few seconds before the cycle starts again.
I want to live with other men in my life happily, acknowledging their process and successes and being happy for them without feeling bad about myself.
Does anyone have similar experiences or has potential solutions on how I can change my thinking patterns into healthy ones?
TL;DR: While having other men as role models in my life has made me a much better man, I often envy their traits and feel bad about myself not being as masculine/strong/etc.

2024.05.14 10:58 Gnueless An update on The Nexus Compendium: No worries, I'm still here!
Hi there! It's been a while since I posted directly about The Nexus Compendium, but given that we're closing in on the site being active for 6 years (in 2 weeks, in fact: May 28, 2018), I felt that I needed to get real with you folks.
... that is, with a few exceptions.
However, what I wanted to share is that I've actually been tracking if there was a system in regards to repeating rotations. And, while there has been a lot of repetition going on in 2023, 2024 has hammered in the point with 10 inch nails: The Rotations are completely the same as the same dates for 2023. That is, the Rotation for tomorrow - May 15, 2024 - will 100% be the same as May 15, 2023.
As such, a thing I'd love to sneak into the site is to retire the current Predictions-page, as it really doesn't make any sense anymore, given that the Sales aren't updating anymore. Instead, I'd like to try and open for the ability to see into the next full year of expected Rotations, by going off the logic that it'll keep repeating. Naturally, these will have a very visible disclaimer of NOT yet being confirmed, which is primarily important, if I'm delayed with adding a new cycle's Rotation.
For more information about the idea, I recently did a post, based on the research of Elitesparkle and myself:
The point being: If you have ideas about a good matching Set of items (Skins, Mounts and/or Banners), let me hear it. Previous post with details can be found here: https://www.reddit.com/heroesofthestorm/comments/wgqsi2/nexus_compendium_preparing_for_collection_sets/
That said, I've still been updating the site, whenever a new patch revealed changes to existing Skins and Mounts, and I'll keep doing that as well.
I'm still here, lurking - and posting a bit, every once in a while, when I sniff up something, that fits the objectives that The Nexus Compendium was meant to fulfill.

The Elekk in the Room: Lack of Updates
To get the obvious things out of the way first: Yes, I've more or less burned out of developing the Nexus Compendium further. It's not likely to get any significant additions, depending on what the future of Heroes of the Storm is.... that is, with a few exceptions.
Free-to-Play Rotations: Predictions
Those that check the site knows that I keep adding the new Free-to-Play Rotations, as close to the updates on the 1st, 8th, 15th and 22nd of every month as life allows of me - and have been doing that since before the site was started. It's a task that I've taken very seriously, as a way to show my dedication to the game and it's community: You guys.However, what I wanted to share is that I've actually been tracking if there was a system in regards to repeating rotations.

The Collection: Adding the idea of Sets
The idea about Collection Sets has existed, and been underway, for... well, ages. But, I have the data, I just need to get it shown. Something that just took way longer than I expected, and something that I intend to get done. Eventually.The point being: If you have ideas about a good matching Set of items (Skins, Mounts and/or Banners), let me hear it.

That said, I've still been updating the site, whenever a new patch revealed changes to existing Skins and Mounts, and I'll keep doing that as well.
TL;DR
The Nexus Compendium is in a kind of hiatus, but is still being updated with Free-to-Play Rotations and changes to the Collection. A few other updates will be added, at some point in the unknown future.I'm still here, lurking - and posting a bit, every once in a while, when I sniff up something, that fits the objectives that The Nexus Compendium was meant to fulfill.
2024.05.14 10:56 Numerous_Chemist_631 I have issues in persisting can anyone guide me
So I have been interested in LOA, manifestations for many years, to change my life completely. I thought its magical that how people are getting their desires by techniques and stuff. i always believe anything is possible. searched about it, every techniques, subliminal, meditation(everyday for 6 months i tried.) and what not but after years of practicing. i haven't reached anywhere. i have heard/read at multiple occasions that at max it take few months to get your desires in reality. I am in this for more than 3 years now. and even after all the failures I still believe i can turn it around, i am trying to locate my issue. And i don't know but i have noticed a pattern of sort i guess it is that i easily get bored of these techniques. for few days i listen subliminals and then after some time I'll get bore, feeling of tiredness start to surround me and i stop doing it. but again after few days I'll try something else in hope of that this time I'll persist, that I'll get it. like affirmations, I'll write them, will try to read them by making a time frame, but in few days my urge to do this is gone. I feel weirdly numb, boring. i make Pinterest vision boards, would decide to see them before sleeping but again after some days it feel like a chore that i have no interest in. has happened multiple times sometimes because the exact opposite of desires happen like couldn't clear a exam, i want to clear with a high rank(I stopped meditation completely after this, was devasted) etc. but most of the time, i don't know why my urge dies. same with self concept I feel tired of repeating stuff in my mind, and then i am unable to do any efforts, but then I bounce back to manifesting, finding something, getting tired of it, cycle repeats.
everyone says persistence is very important. keep persisting etc. but I can't somehow. how do i resolve this. i tried reading books but they to bore me death, once i even started to take notes but i couldn't finish book. but then again i believe this is possible that when people says they changed overnight it is possible. and I always comeback at this, because anything is possible. But I can't persist, even if I force myself I would stumble to something that says you should enjoy manifesting. but I can't after certain time frame. can anyone help me, guide me, I'll be grateful
