2024.05.14 16:28 ComplexNovel2 I rescued a cat and now my older cat is terrified.
I got my girl 5 years ago, rejected by her mum at 4 weeks old and I had to hand rear her - she is a very anxious cat.
Last week I rescued a sweet little boy, he'd been hit by a car, his owners gave him up and he's ended up with me on an interim basis. He's had his leg amputated and he's in a crate.
My girl has not seen him at all and she's gone psycho.
I wanted this little guy to have a shot at life and I'm left with this heartbreaking realisation I've just ruined years of trust building and bonding with my girl.
I haven't stopped crying.
Its not a territorial reaction, she is terrified. I've seen her territorial aggression, and how she's acting is nothing like that.
And I'm the person who brought the object of her fear into her home, her safe space, with the people she loves most.
If I hadn't have taken him, he'd have been put to sleep.
My sister has offered to take him on, but she lives hours away and he's too fragile to travel, I can get him back to health, and then he will go to my sister.
But is there any way I can reclaim the trust with my girl?

2024.05.14 16:28 nylajx 3 Year Old. Please help.
My 3 year old son is non-stop from the time he awakes to goes to bed. He barely sleeps & just doesn't stop. Some days, I feel like he is on a rotating wheel just spinning.
Went to the doctor & she gave him Guanfacine to try. He has to take 1/4 daily & honestly, the pills are too soft/small to break into 4's. I struggled & half the pills were ruined into powder. Very frustrating. So far, his school said he has been very aggressive today. Going to give it a week or two to see if he changes.
What are some ways to help him cope? We are looking at Speech Therapy & OT, but I am not sure what else to do. There are days where he wakes up at 5am & doesn't stop until 10pm at night. Then he will still wake up two or three times to get in our bed. It is constant fighting & just non-stop acting out.
I am finding myself angry with him all the time & I hate that.
Any idea how to assist with the ADHD? He has it per his Doctor, but she refused a stimulant for now.

2024.05.14 16:28 No-Change-1532 Anxiety
I (25f) had a hellish week about 4 years ago. First time I ever experienced anything similar to Meniere’s and pretty much every medical professional I saw about it rolled their eyes (metaphorically). The first night it happened I went to the ER and the doctor told me sometimes people feel anxious and it was all just in my head. I went home and felt so stupid and embarrassed.
But then it happened again. And again.
Thankfully, one day it happened on my way to work where I was a receptionist at a university speech and hearing clinic. My boss, an audiologist, ran some tests and said she couldn’t give me definitive answers since she specializes in the outer ear but she said that I was exhibiting nystagmus.
There was also an audiology student there who has Meniere’s and he was extremely validating.
My boss referred me to a neurologist (if I remember correctly) but she didn’t seem to really believe me. She said she couldn’t diagnose me without me having an episode in front of her anyway lol.
Anyway, it’s been four years since then and I’ve only had one other episode and it was nothing compared to that first week. Still, it was not fun.
Sometimes though, my hearing will drop in my right ear (my bad ear) and I’ll get that queasy feeling. I’ll hear some ringing and then after less than ten seconds, it’ll be over.
It’s been happening more frequently lately and I don’t know what I should do about it. I know that sometimes people will have a random episode when they’re young and then when they’re older, it will hit them like a truck. Now I just feel like I’m waiting.

2024.05.14 16:27 veritas2884 Issue with Inglorious Basterds 4K
 | The first two images are from the 4K, you can see spots at the bottom left and right that looks a bit like OLED burn in, but this isn’t an OLED. It’s like this through the whole movie, but harder to see in bright scenes. The second two pictures are from the Blu-ray 1080p disk. No issues. Also none of my other 4ks have any issues like this. I bought this from Amazon back in February but just got around to watching it. Is there any recourse to get a defective disk replaced? submitted by veritas2884 to 4kbluray [link] [comments] |
2024.05.14 16:27 yosrym93 Adding spouse to NEXUS application
I am a US resident and I applied for NEXUS for myself a long time ago to visit my wife in Canada more easily. I just got conditionally approved today and I need to schedule an interview. My wife got her green card very recently.
Is there any way I can include her in my application without her having to wait for 8 more months to schedule an interview?
If I get NEXUS and she doesn’t, can we cross the land border together in my car in the NEXUS lane? I am afraid it will be almost useless for me otherwise :/

 | Second time cantering. I know I need to: -let go of the horn (I “hover hand” when I do that lol) -move my feet away from a duck footed position (my dancer background is betraying me) -be less tense on the canter depart -work on canter to trot transition (instead of going straight to the walk) submitted by Electronic-Boss4417 to Equestrian [link] [comments] What else can I do to improve? Any tricks to making the things I laid out easier to do? I love my trainer, but sometimes getting a fresh set of eyes or hearing cues in a different way can be helpful!

2024.05.14 16:26 InformationDeep9556 How did your auras manifest when they first started happening?
I am not diagnosed with epilepsy. For the past month I get really weird split-second or 1 second long sensations of anxiety (this is the only way I know how to describe them), where I just feel weird. It doesnt last long enough for me to make sense of it, like if it's a dejavu or confusion or what is it. I don't get other symptoms along with this.
Here I see that most people experience auras which they describe as "dejavu" or other clear symptoms that are more intense, and they last long enough for people to kind of process them.
For you who experience auras, did they start similarly when you started having them and gradually got more intense/longer, or they were always like that?
I have to add that I'm also sometimes experiencing muscle twitching and sometimes jerks (especially while sleeping). I'm 27M with no history of seizures or similar symptoms prior to these. I see that these symptoms often happen in TLE or JME (the latter doesn't make sense for my age).
I am kind of concerned and currently keeping an eye on these symptoms, and if they keep getting worse I will make sure to see a neurologist.

2024.05.14 16:26 Joshh170 Helldivers 2 Releases Patch Notes for Latest Update
 | Arrowhead Games Studios releases update 1.000.304 for Helldivers 2, which makes a number of big fixes to ongoing bugs and game crashes. It's has been a rollercoaster ride for Helldivers 2 since it launched back in February. The online co-op shooter experienced unprecedented sales, which, in turn, caused the game's servers to break down, preventing players from logging in or causing errors during gameplay. Thankfully, Arrowhead managed to stabilize the game and since then, it has continued to grow, becoming Sony's fastest selling PlayStation game ever. submitted by Joshh170 to GameGeeks [link] [comments] However, even with its continued popularity, Helldivers 2 hit another bump in the road due to a PSN Account controversy, where Sony intended to implement a system that required PC players to make and link to a PlayStation Network account. The news was not received well by players, who systematically review bombed the title on Steam, ultimately forcing Sony to back down, though Helldivers 2 was delisted in well over 150 countries with no resolution in sight. Still, Arrowhead continues updating the game, first with a new Warbond and now with a brand-new update. The latest update for Helldivers 2 focuses on the remaining game crashes players have been running into recently. Game crashes have been a common problem for Helldivers 2 since the game launched, including a strange one caused by players throwing too many snowballs while in a game. In this case, the trio of fixes address crashes that can happen when players load in to their ship, examine their loadout, or could be triggered right after the host left the room after a player had joined. It's unknown how rare these moments were, but either way, players no longer need to worry about them. In addition to game crashes, this update addressed a handful of bugs as well. In terms of gameplay, the Airburst proximity explosion has been adjusted so that it is only triggered by enemies and other Helldivers in the vicinity. The AR-61 Tenderizer had a bug which gave it the wrong color scheme in some instances, which has since been fixed within this patch. Considering all of the recent Helldivers 2 controversy, this update has added an optional setting for players who do want to link their PSN Accounts found within the in-game settings. For better or worse, Arrowhead has made plenty of balance updates with many of these patches, something which has left most in the community divided on. While some appreciate Arrowhead attempting to keep the game fair, others have questioned the need for so many balance updates when the game is strictly a cooperative experience. In fact, Arrowhead CEO Johan Pilestedt responded to a player saying the game has become unfun due to the constant changes, agreeing that the studio has gone a bit too far in some areas and in some cases, removing fun elements the community has discovered organically. Helldivers 2 Update 1.00.304 Patch Notes Crashes Fixed a crash triggered when the host left after a player hot joined. Fixed an occasional crash in the Loadout menu. Fix for a rare crash when transitioning to or from the ship. Misc Fixes Fixed players getting stuck on the mission summary screen when the host leaves. Fixed the issue of non-purchased Super Credits not being visible in the Warbond Overview screen (only relevant for Japanese release). Optional account linking now available in the Account section of the in-game settings. Fixed 'Steam AppId supplied invalid or not allowed' being shown due to a different error. Fix attachments on weapons showing up as purple question marks in the tutorial in some cases. Airburst proximity explosion is now triggered only by enemies & Helldivers. The AR-61 Tenderizer now has the correct color scheme. Known Issues These are issues that were either introduced by this patch and are being worked on, or are from a previous version and have not yet been fixed. Players may not have the option to send, accept or decline friend requests. Players may not have the option to Block other players. Blocked players are not added to the Blocked Player list or prevented from joining games. Game may crash if the player changes the text language while on a mission. Players may experience delays in Medals and Super Credits payouts. Players may occasionally receive excessive XP. Enemies that bleed out do not progress Personal Orders and Eradicate missions. Arc weapons sometimes behave inconsistently and sometimes misfire. Most weapons shoot below the crosshair when aiming down the sights. AR-61 Tenderizer deals too little damage and is not in the final state we are intending. Spear’s targeting is inconsistent, making it hard to lock-on to larger enemies. Stratagem beam might attach itself to an enemy but it will deploy to its original location. Helldiver may be unable to stand up from crouching when surrounded by enemies. "Hand Carts" Ship module does not reduce Shield Generator Pack's cooldown. Some players might become stuck in the Loadout when joining a game in progress. Reinforcement may not be available for some players who join a game in progress. Planet liberation reaches 100% at the end of every Defend mission. |
2024.05.14 16:26 BeatNo2708 How unreasonable is it to think of applying for a PhD at Harvard at 30?
So here goes my story:
I was considered gifted when I was younger, but as I grew older, a series of health issues got in my way. My 20s were basically riddled with health issues - one after another. I tried to remain active to the best of my ability- got my bachelors in Information Technology from a tier 2 college, went on to work in the IT industry for 2 years after that. I was completely crushed by my life's circumstances, so I quit my job and became an artist and a private tutor. Some 2 years after that, I went back to school to get my masters in Linguistics from one of the best universities in India (I'm Indian), thinking I would go for a PhD in Natural Language Processing afterwards. But while I was there, another health issue came up, and got in the way of my plans. This one is chronic and lifelong. There was this one course on speech and communication disorders (neural basis of language disorders)-I got way too interested in that and want to go for a PhD in Neuroscience now. I've been doing a lot of studying on this subject on my own. This may sound whimsical, but I know that I have what it takes. I have taught myself a lot of subjects this way. I just want to know if there's a way to make my application really strong to be considered for a PhD at Harvard. Besides publishing papers and assisting on current projects in universities, is there anything else I should be doing?

2024.05.14 16:26 Ok_Flower2398sd3 2014 Buick Enclave acting up lately.
Have a well-maintained 2014 Enclave with around 80k miles. All has generally been fine until a few weeks ago we noticed that the a/c wouldn't always come on. The button would light up for a second but a/c would not come on. Turning car off/on would fix it.
Also noticed a few times that after turning off the car, the engine would 'run' (not quite fully run, but definitely more than just a fan or something winding down) for several seconds.
Today, car sputtered a bit when starting it up, a/c would not come on, check engine light came on just as we got home, and engine was loud/running for a few seconds after turning off.
We're of course going to bring it in to get looked at (had been meaning to do so anyway), but any thoughts as to what might be going on based on these symptoms?
Thank you.

2024.05.14 16:26 VFFC- Crown keeps falling out! Need advice.
So I have a crown on the bottom left about halfway towards the back. This crown keeps falling out every few months, about 6 times so far, because there’s a small “gap” between the crown and tooth behind it. Every time I eat, food gets caught in this gap forcing me to floss it out as there’s literally no other way to get it out.
We all know how annoying it is to have food stuck in our teeth. The hygienist tells me to buy a water pick which I don’t see actually helping matters. I even paid for a whole new crown to be made in hopes of filling in the space between the teeth. The new one was a bit closer and tighter but overtime the food kept getting stuck. All the flossing I’m doing to get the food out is obviously what’s causing the tooth to get looser.
Yesterday I bit on a piece of chocolate, it pulled the crown out and without me realizing and I bit down hard on the loose crown in my mouth. Luckily it didn’t crack.
I’m getting so frustrated to the point of actually looking for a new dentist for other opinions. My current dentist just keeps re-cementing it each time it falls out and tells me not to floss out the food that gets stuck. Does anyone have any advice or options you can recommend to me? I’m at my wits end over here, but I can’t live without a tooth in my mouth.
(Underneath the crown is a small stubble of my shaved down original tooth.)

2024.05.14 16:26 GTCapone Weightlifting with low blood pressure
Hi askdocs
I've (36M) been dealing with high blood pressure (150/85+) this year and have made a ton of progress through exercise, diet, and quitting drinking/smoking. Lately, I've switched to having low (below 80/60) blood pressure. It's been low enough that I've almost blacked out from standing up and during weightlifting.
I talked to my doctor already and he's having me lower my Losartan dosage from 100mg daily to 50mg and stopping my hydrochlorothiazide 12.5mg entirely to start, with instructions to continue lowering the dosage until my systolic is back around 120. We currently think I'll be able to stop the medication entirely.
I've also added protein shakes (muscle milk) to my diet to ensure that I'm not malnourished, since my other medications (listed below) suppress my diet significantly.
My question is: at what point should I go back to weightlifting? It's been 3 days on the lower dose and I'm measuring 100/70 before medication and between 90/60 and 100/70 after medication. I'm still getting dizzy when standing up, though not as bad. I was planning on waiting until either I was done adjusting my dosage, or above 110 systolic, but that may be me making excuses for myself.
Medications:
Diet is almond milk yogurt w/ granola, and a protein shake for breakfast, raw vegetables for lunch, coldcut sandwich for dinner, fresh fruit, nuts and dried fruit for snacks, 2-3L of water and unsweetened tea for fluids (I've been over hydrated per lab results). 30-60 minutes of exercise on weekdays.
Background:
My weight is currently 215lbs (97.5kg) at 5'11 (180cm). I've been a 1/2 pack/day smoker for 16 years and an alcoholic for 14 years. No indication of liver or kidney damage, and my chest x-ray was clean. I'm currently 3-months sober and have quit smoking, but I'm still using nicotine gum and pouches. I have significant back, ankle/foot, and joint pain from military service and am diagnosed with GAD, MDD, and ADHD (hence the laundry list of medications). My cholesterol was above 300 as of 4 months ago, but is down to 107 as of a week ago. Sleep is a disturbed 5 hours/night.
I've been back in the gym for 3 months, lifting and walking. Outside of exercise, I'm pretty sedentary.

My weight is currently 215lbs (97.5kg) at 5'11 (180cm). I've been a 1/2 pack/day smoker for 16 years and an alcoholic for 14 years. No indication of liver or kidney damage, and my chest x-ray was clean. I'm currently 3-months sober and have quit smoking, but I'm still using nicotine gum and pouches. I have significant back, ankle/foot, and joint pain from military service and am diagnosed with GAD, MDD, and ADHD (hence the laundry list of medications). My cholesterol was above 300 as of 4 months ago, but is down to 107 as of a week ago. Sleep is a disturbed 5 hours/night.
I've been back in the gym for 3 months, lifting and walking. Outside of exercise, I'm pretty sedentary.
2024.05.14 16:26 Mammoth_Memory8738 Long term boyfriend wants to add another girl in our sex life
Hey, looking for some advice. I’ve been with my boyfriend since high school we were 14, now we’re 22. We’ve been sexually active for a long time I would say since we were 16. I was always more shy I never watched porn or masturbated or sent nudes just went along with everything he wanted to do. We broke up for a little bit and he got with multiple girls so although we lost our virginity to each other his body count is about 5+ (not sure) mines still just him.
After him getting with other people it got me to be more hyper sexual, the way we would get intimate started to change could also be that we were getting older. We’ve been talking about a third for a while now, I know old 16yo me would’ve minded it but now I kinda just say yes to everything I do find it attractive until I don’t when I’m alone and reflect.
I have been talking to this girl for a while, she was supposed to be our third 2 years ago and we never went through with it my boyfriend asked me again since he wants me to explore with girls and feels like he doesn’t please me enough (I have assured him that he does) and now we’re going to all meet on Sunday.
Any advice from anyone who’s been in similar situations? I’m scared that I’ll regret it and it’ll ruin our relationship. We thought it’s basically now or never because we do want to get married soon and have kids over the next few years.

2024.05.14 16:25 Nice_Witness3525 Getting in better health
I've tried WFPB years ago and dropped about 20lbs in 6 months before giving it up due to schedule and laziness honestly. I'm now sitting at 250lbs when I should be in the 190lb range and want to get back to it.
I'm usually a habit-eater so I can eat the same thing every day without complaint. I'm looking for 2-3 meal ideas that incorporate rice, beans, veggies, potatoes, and lower fat items. I'm not big on processed foods (except when I'm having the munchies) so I want to avoid those components.
I don't really need a meal plan but just a couple of ideas so I can jump back into eating this way.

2024.05.14 16:25 Glad-Antelope8382 21 weeks and the nausea is back 😩
This is just a vent because I don’t really have anywhere else to vent.
It would be a lie to say I’ve been feeling good lately, because I haven’t been lol, but at least the nonstop first trimester nausea had subsided around week 15. I’ve been dealing with other discomforts like horrible back and pelvic pain and headaches, but at least the nausea had eased up and my appetite was back to normal for the past month.
Suddenly, like 2 days ago, I started to get that gross taste in my mouth again, and started to get that icky feeling in my stomach. Suddenly the “I feel like I need to puke if I’m not eating every hour” feeling is back, and no food is appetizing again. I hate it here 😭😭😭
I’m trying to focus on the good stuff. Had my anatomy scan last week and baby is looking good. Only things were that they couldn’t get a good enough look at the heart so I need another scan, and I have a low lying placenta. I was told to not worry about either thing, so I’m not, but I wonder if the low lying placenta has anything to do with my belly/pelvic pain. Some days I can’t even walk, sit, or sleep because the pain is so bad.
I told my OB about my really back pain and headaches and she’s referring me to a high risk specialist, because of my age “just in case”🥲 (I’m 37) it’s ok, I’m not upset about it, and I’d rather take every precaution necessary.
I’m just so tired of feeling like crap. I want to enjoy my pregnancy. I’m worried about how crappy I already feel and how much longer I still have to go. I’m so afraid of ending bedridden or worse.
Ok. Vent over. Thanks for listening/ reading.

2024.05.14 16:25 w2baba My love my world
Dive into this tale of mine which would take you back to the days of my adolescence. I belonged to a world which didn't lack the least in ways to enjoyment. A place abundant in fun, activities, joy and peace. One day, something happened. Something that would change me, my way of life and my perspective all together. On my way back home, I saw a valley of flowers. A backdrop of beauty which can't be described in words. I got fascinated and decided to enter it. It led to a narrow lane which seemed like gateway to heaven. After walking for a while, I realised that I had ventured into the Palace of witches. It took me a while to believe what I was seeing. It looked as if I had entered a dream land which had everything but reality. Being lost, I decided to wander around hopelessly, trying to find a way out. Suddenly, I stumbled upon a girl. She looked like an angel disguised as a human. But to the contrary of her heavenly aura, she seemed to be surrounded by loneliness.She claimed to be all alone in this world. I couldn't bear to see such a pure timid soul all alone. I made up my mind to take her to my world. She guided me on our way out and we were able to leave that mysterious world. A few days passed by and she had finally started to blend in. She felt at ease with me and started enjoying my company the way I did. Months passed like minutes and we never realised that it had already been 2 years since that fateful incident of our meeting. It was 1:00am at night, she was in my arms. She felt like my comfort cocoon as if my entire world could confine in her. She whispered in my ears about something that had been troubling her since the day we left. She expressed her insecurities and fear of this new world. She wished to return to her world but was reluctant because she didn't want to loose me. I was stunned. I didn't want to let her go after how far we had made it together. That night, I made the decision to set my world on fire.Anything that troubles her will face the consequences is what I thought to myself. The next day, she went missing. I searched every nook and corner but could not find her. My heart began to ache. I was in utter pain. My world was falling apart but the little hope within me sparked. I rushed towards that valley again, crossed the lane again and re entered the palace of witches. I found her yet again. She was asleep. She looked more beautiful than an angel. I approached her and softly woke her from her deep slumber. She hugged me tightly and kept me close for a while. Later, she smiled and said "the world you set fire to was the place I burnt up for you. My life was yours to begin with. You were destined to meet me, feel in love with me and finally burn that world of yours along with me. That's the curse of the palace of witches. That's what your fate has brought you into. Here onwards, you'll have to live in that burnt up world of yours while I find another boy and burn another world".Her words pierced my heart. I stood there without uttering a word. My world had come to a standstill. Tears were rolling down my cheeks and I thought to myself. "I wanted to burn the world but I ended up burning my world instead. The city was on fire but the one burnt was my entire world." Maybe we were not meant to be together in this world. Maybe let's make it in some other where I'm the one who burns and you're the one you gets to live, my love, my world.

2024.05.14 16:25 StunningEarthWorm I have weird eyes
I see mild acid-like visuals 100% of the time, and have since childhood. I have poor vision - my eyes have a very hard time focusing. My pupils naturally relax and dilate - without glasses, the TV-like static of moving geometry makes it very difficult to read. I can "trip out" with my eyes closed and can train my mind to make the visuals more clear. When I get good at it, I can control the visuals, and when they are really intense, I can dream in a waking state.
At night time, when I look at lights from a distance, I relax my focus and dialate my pulps and the light blows up to take over much of my visual space. Within the light, I can see all the dust particles and other floaty things on the surface of my eye. When I get into a meditative state, I can communicate with beings this way. I blink my eyes and the little floaties swirl around and then stop. When in communication with beings, the floaties in my eye arrange themselves into pictures and sometimes even words. As a teenager, I would sit and stare at lights at night and would be comforted by the funny images I'd be shown. The floaties arrange into a comical looking guy with sunglasses (is this what you look like? I wondered). Next a teddy bear holding up a sign that I can't quite make out the words. Etcetera. Could have just been my mind communicating with itself.
When i lay down and relax, colours often appear. I've been getting good at summoning them on demand. In a lit up room, usually it is a yellow light that takes over everything in my sight. In a dark room, it is always a chartreuse colour and an indigo colour. Usually the chartreuse is visible first - appearly lightly in the center of my vision, then the indigo light appears from behind or within it. Both colors swirl around eachother, doing a beautiful dance, fighting over my visual space. One colour will almost totally absorb the other colour and the other one will rise back up and take the other over and it continues like this.
Lastly, this one is cool but I only see it sometimes. When I am looking at a person in a relaxed state, sometimes I can see a little light, looks sort of like a nucleus of some kind, over their face. I've only seen it with 2 people so far. Both of of them I was in love with. Both of the lights were similar but had their own unique shape. The center of the light was pink for both people and the mandala of other colours around it were unique for each. I saw it hundreds of times with my previous partner but only once so far with my new partner.
Are these experiences common with anyone else? Has anyone developed similar abilities further? Anything I should try or test? I don't know anything about this sort of thing. My optometrist had no ideas, though I didn't explain everything lol.
Thanks :)

2024.05.14 16:25 4TRS Very confused with wiring
I’m completely rebuilding a 94 Toyota pickup 5 speed 4wd. Of course, this includes rewiring, my engine harness is good but im redoing my chassis harness. The guage cluster is getting replaced with custom gauges but I have no idea how to wire gauges and haven’t been able to find any information online on how custom gauges are wired to an my ecu, the wiring has been the most confusing part of this project by far. Is their an output on my ecu that connects directly to gauges? Do I have to just splice them into the wires coming from the sensor? Is this part of the chassis harness or engine harness? The stock dashboard had relays scattered all around in different parts of the dash and was really weird so i would like to get a painless chassis harness for my lights, horn, turn signal, ac, etc. then have my engine harness connected to my engine and ecu. Is it possible to have these two wiring harness working independently from one another. And where would my gauges be wired to? I’m sorry for all the confusing questions but I’m so lost.

2024.05.14 16:25 Human-Reaction-1792 I think I have been struggling for a long time
Recently I found out I have periodontal disease, and I have been struggling for a very long time, or at least it’s gotten worse when I found out. Usually I’m very okay and jolly but day by day I think it’s better to just go than continued to be judge for the rest of my life. I have had jacked up teeth for a long time since an accident in elementary school that my “parents” gnored or refused to fix. I mean it’s also my fault for not caring for my teeth either and I know I’ll get judged for that. I don’t know what to do because I care about friends and family, it’s hard to get out of bed every damn day. I feel like I’m faking around friends and I don’t know what to do because I can’t afford treatment nor do I want to leave my brothers and sisters behind. But I’m already judged by family for the disease but they say to have faith, I can fix it and to just love myself but I don’t I never have. I never loved myself and this ugly smile, the way I look, the isolation I have is killing me on the inside I just want to scream and die..but I don’t have to courage to end it myself because each time I do think of it I think of my family. And no my suicide isn’t based on my teeth, it has other factors I’m sure are deeply rooted in me right now that I can’t pick apart right now but I know they are there. I just feel crushed but I want to make it and be happy I just don’t know how because I feel like my soul is just being draggged
