I will be dropping a friends car from San Jose to Seattle . This is my first cross-state road-trip. Planning a tentative stop and split into a 2 day journey & decide whether to take it or not on the way there. If not too tired, push for it in one day. Any suggestions for where to stop? Any tips on how to have a safe and comfortable journey?
It's a long shot, but anyone driving back from Seattle to San Jose sometime between 26th May to 30th May?

Let me start by saying I’m highly introverted and extremely bad at reading social cues. I’ve slowly become friends with a guy at work and we’ve become closer friends as the past year has gone by or so I thought.
We have been going through a semi similar experience the past year as my husband passed away and this guy has been going through a rocky divorce. Not exactly the same thing but we share about the hard stuff and I’ve listened to him vent a lot and talked him through a lot of struggles. We also have a lot of common interests and both work night shift (about five months ago he went to work for a different company). Since he left we went from texting rarely to several times a week to pretty much every day. He even recently told me he wanted me to meet his mom because he thought we’d have a lot in common. I’m an introvert, that struck me as odd but I know other people have friends that meet their families so I was open to it.
I know there’s no interest in anything aside from friendship. My marriage was bad for a lot of reasons; I have a ton of healing to do and haven’t been shy about sharing my lack of interest in dating anyone. He’s never said anything about it aside from he still has feelings for his ex wife and isn’t looking for anything either. On top of that I’m a 2 maybe a 3 lol so I doubt there would be any interest towards me anyway.
I say that because everything has abruptly changed in the past week. One night everything is normal, he stopped by my house to pick up something. Stayed a few minutes and left. We texted more after that. Then the next afternoon I sent him a funny meme (pretty normal for our communication pattern). He saw my messages but didn’t respond, I was like ok he’s busy. Sends a short response towards the end of his shift. Next few days I’ve sent him a couple more memes and a few messages…same thing. He usually messages back very quickly and openly engages. Last message he hasn’t responded at all at this point even though, again, he looked at it. I’m super confused. Did I misread our level of friendship? I stopped messaging him because I obviously don’t want to be that annoying pushy friend who tries too hard but I’m not sure what to do now since I value the friendship quite a bit. I also am afraid of looking like a clingy or overly attached friend if I ask him point blank if everything is ok or if I’ve done something wrong. Any advice on if I misread and thought we were better friends than he did or maybe how I can best handle the situation going forward? Do I just ghost until he actually reaches out?
tl;dr I think I assumed we were better friends than we are and might have messed up by messaging him too much and am not sure how to go forward from here and still salvage the friendship. Advice to help me fix things?

That's it. I'm finally back to the weight I was before relapsing. My chubby cheeks are back, the fat on my arms is spreading to my chest, my thighs touch, and my collarbones are disappearing. I’m so depressed. I feel like I've undone all my progress. And yet, I still need to gain more weight. How am I supposed to be okay with my appearance when I feel huge even when I'm underweight? It's been getting to me so much that recently, I've been exercising more, using the excuse of "building muscle" due to muscle deficiencies. While that's partly true, the real reason is to burn calories. I'm sticking to my meal plan, but I don't want to. The only reason I continue is because of the people around me. If it were up to me, I would still be starving myself. I would probably be dead by now—and a part of me YEARNS for that. To get as bad as possible. To completely disappear. But now that I look "normal," no one takes my struggles seriously. My parents joke, saying things like, "Are you stuffing yourself again?" They have no idea what I'm going through. They think I’m recovered. Ha! The fact that everyone thinks I'm doing fine only makes the urge to relapse stronger. I want others to see how much I'm suffering. Life felt so peaceful back then. I was numb to everything except calories, exercise, and my weight. I crave that peace again and feel like it's only a matter of time before I relapse. But at the same time, I want to stop before it happens. I don’t know what to do since no one takes me seriously except people who have actually been through it, so I'm writing it here. I have extremely mixed feelings about everything. I would appreciate any advice or support. Thank you.

From all the spices, cardamom also known as elaichi is considered the “Queen of spices.” Each has its own unique appeal. Along with its flavor, this precious seed has a rich history and has spread across continents and nations, bringing its pungent impact to cuisines worldwide. Through time and place, we shall explore the journey of cardamom from its humble beginnings to its present-day, highly esteemed position.

Origin of Cardamom and the Early Period of Cardamom History

In the lush forests of the Southern Ghats of India, the elaichi plant, Elettaria cardamomum, is native to the region. Primitive humans initially became aware of this spice’s culinary and fragrant properties in this thicket. Cardamom was first mentioned in writings in the fourth century BC.

Spice of Trade Routes

Cardamom started to expand outside of India with the growth of trade networks and thriving civilizations. Due in large part to their influence, elaichi spread throughout the Arabian Peninsula and beyond. Arab traders were lured to the plant by its distinct flavor and medicinal qualities. In the packed Middle Eastern marketplaces by the 12th century, it was a highly sought-after product.

A Royal Favor

The westward movement of green cardamom was fueled not only by business but also by the monarchy’s attraction to it. Elaichi became well-liked by the European nobility in the Middle Ages as a symbol of elegance and wealth. Its distinct flavor swiftly spread throughout royal kitchens, where it adorned dishes fit for kings and queens.

Worldwide Growth

The global reach of green cardamom was growing as the era of exploration got underway. Spanish conquistadors carried it to the coasts of Central and South America, while Portuguese traders introduced it to Europe’s ravenous palates for spices. Today, elaichi grows well in a wide range of climates, from Sri Lanka’s lush countryside to Guatemala’s foggy highlands.

Versatility in Cuisine

Beyond its colorful past, cardamom enchants with its diverse culinary applications. Its warm, zesty flavor adds complexity to savory and sweet recipes alike, from rich sweets to fragrant curries. It’s a main ingredient in celebratory sweets such as Swedish kardemummabullar in Scandinavia, and it scents rich, spicy coffees in the Middle East.

Medicinal Properties

In addition to its culinary uses, green cardamom has several medicinal properties. Traditional medicinal systems, like Ayurveda and Traditional Chinese Medicine, appreciate it for its capacity to promote digestive health, enhance respiratory health, and potentially even enhance cardiovascular health. Centuries of traditional knowledge is being confirmed by the ongoing scientific research on the healing potential of elaichi.

pregnant & alone
I don’t know why I’m posting in here. I just feel as if I’ve reached rock bottom.
I’ve (F, 24) been a “situationship” with J (M, 29) for two years now. We met on a dating app and have been sleeping together since. Since the beginning he has made it clear he didn’t want to be in a relationship with me, but as time went on we spent more and more nights together and agreed we wouldn’t sleep with other people.
It changed from just sex- to spending three to four nights together starting in September of last year. We’d cook together, watch movies, and sleep together. We had a routine and spent more nights together than not.
Last year, we gave the relationship thing a go- he’d told me he had wanted to be with me one other time but had changed his mind a week later, so I was tentative to say the least. I met his family and I was so happy he finally was seeing me. He ended it two months later, but nothing really changed between us. We kept on spending just as much time together.
Ive tried to get out of the situation, I honestly have. But I love him and I felt like anything was better than nothing. I think I secretly felt like maybe he loved me too but wouldn’t admit it to himself. It is pathetic tbh and I know this.
Flash forward to March- he knocked me up. I took a plan B- it didn’t work. I didn’t find out for a while and when I did I told him. He told me I should get an abortion and that all I’ve been is a place holder. He told me he was gonna end things as soon as he found a woman that he “actually likes.”
I left for a couple weeks- while I was gone he seemed to have a slight change of heart. He asked me to move into his spare room in his place to help me while I’m pregnant and with the baby.
When I came back we decided to see each other.. we did our usual thing, I read my book and he did his puzzle. I decided to head up to bed and when I did I saw an opened condom wrapper on the floor. I went downstairs and confronted him and he told me that three days after I told him I was pregnant he picked up a girl at a bar and took her home
I wasn’t shocked but I was heart broken. I spent all night crying. I have his baby in my belly. We’ve been “together” for almost two years and he chooses to go out and fuck some girl right when he finds out. The most pathetic thing about it is I stayed the night after I found out. I stayed in his bed and in the morning I saw her hair on my pillow and I felt like I was going to throw up. I don’t know how to move forward. I don’t know how to handle this pregnancy. I know most people here are going to tell me to abort but I ’ve seen the baby on the ultrasound kicking its little legs already and I won’t end this pregnancy. I love them already.
He already has another baby who will be two years old this Summer. He’s done this before, but with her it was a one night stand. He doesn’t want to be with either of us.
I just feel so inadequate. I don’t feel lovable. I wonder if I’m not pretty enough or what I’m lacking. I know I need to grow in self love. I know I need to detach. Rationally I know these things but I don’t know how to- if I did I wouldn’t be pregnant. I wish I respected myself enough to walk away but I feel stuck. I just want to be loved and supported and it hurts so badly. My dating life is over, I’m going to be a full time mom- I’ll have custody. My body will change. My everything will change, and he just gets to do what he wants, go to bars, fuck women … whatever. Without repercussion.
I want to point out that I gave him the option to not be involved in the babies life since he doesn’t want to be and he’s insistent that he will be present. I want to be a good mom but since that night I can hardly get out bed. I don’t know how to coparent with someone like this. The situation just keeps playing over in my head and I feel physically sick and I don’t know how to get out of this hole and over him. I should hate him but I don’t.
Advice wise- hit me with the best you got. How do I get over this? How do I detatch? How do I deal with the fact that I have to coparent with a man who is fucking other women while I’m pregnant? I’m heartbroken.

I don’t know anything scarier than planning your own death.. and being so damn miserable that nothing can lift you out of it. Losing friends, family, jobs and loved ones is hard, but losing yourself.. that’s a whole new level of scary.
Thank god I stuck it out and the program clicked for me when I conceded defeat to alcohol. My denial was blocking me from seeing the truth, because I didn’t want to see it.. I didn’t want to admit that I was powerless over alcohol and that my life had become totally unmanageable.. how humiliating. How depressing.. how weak! What a total and utter failure i am!
But once i did.. once I forced myself to go to that meeting rather than the bottle shop, and admitted complete and utter defeat to alcohol I realized I was in the best place possible, and a whole swarm of people who were so seemingly different to me were there for me.. their shared experience resonated finally and it was like the blinders were turned off.
This program is powerful and I’m so utterly grateful for those people who were there for me when I truly couldn’t be there for myself anymore. I’m never ever taking my life for granted again.
I’m 38 days sober this time around and my desire to drink has disappeared. My resentment towards everyone and everything has all but gone, and I’m seeing life in a totally new way now.
Thank god. Thank god for this fellowship. Thank god for this wonderful program that heals the very deep wounds of my soul. Thank god I didn’t take my own life.

Hello dear Supernote community! I am looking to get a Nomad, since the A5X2 is unavailable indefinitely.
To maximize horizontal screen estate, I plan to use it for note taking in landscape mode (reading is lower priority for me).

• If you write in landscape mode, is the constant scrolling annoying? Is it annoying if the hand sinks down over the ridge at the bottom end? (With A5 there is obviously more space on the screen downwards for your writing hand to rest on)
• how are notes written in landscape shown when viewed in normal (vertical) mode? Is it just zoomed out by 50% and thus 50% smaller than notes taken in vertical mode?

Thanks for your answers!

idk if this the right place, but im just planning my first shopping trip with friends within the 18 years of my life. like i mentioned earlier in the title, i kinda hate shopping and i dont enjoy it. Unless its food , it just bores me to walk around a mall, widow shopping, changing into clothes that i wont even buy.
Im also very overweight so most of the clothes dont even fit me.
However again, i like hanging out with them. None of my previous friends had ever invite to hang out with them outside school days. this is kinda embrassing, being 18, i should've learnt how to enjoy all of this by the time i was 12. sighhhhh
tho i figured its about time i stop being an introvert/deadbeat friend and work on my social skill.
sooooo how? is there anything i should take note when shopping with them?

I'm not sure how helpful it will be to post here because I think my issue goes far beyond the usual conflicts one might find in a traditional dnd campaign. So before anyone reads this I wants to emphasise that 1. this was my very first dnd campaign and I joined it without any prior knowledge, and 2. this campaign was never intended to be a traditional "we're heroes and trying to save the world while fighting monsters left and right" campaign. I hope this answers any questions along the lines of "Well, why did you create this kind of character in the first place?" and "Why do your characters spend so much time talking about stuff, don't you have some beholders to fight?". I also cannot explain the whole situation without writing a literal 20 page long essay, so I'll try to keep it as short as possible and only give two examples. I'm definitely leaving a lot of details out here, so please let me know if clarifications or futher information is needed.
To preface what this is all about: I was a player in a very roleplay focused campaign and my character basically turned into the problem child of this campaign. I never intended for my character to be the focus, was never interested in him being the focus, but nothing I ever did suceeded in solving the issues at hand and taking the focus away from him. I constantly got accused of "making my character suffer", whereas from my perspective I was constantly trying to keep this character safe from the constant attacks he had to endure. It was like no matter what I did, no matter what I let this character do, it was never right. I think everyone in this group makes an effort to play their characters realistically, I defininitely do. And yet it was never me going "I know exactly what my character has to do to fix this but I'll REFUSE to do it because I don't like it" but me literally having no clue what people wanted from this character. The dm repeatedly said that nothing they tried to fix this character was helping. Whereas from my perspective these things that were supposed to "help" my character were the exact things that my character was struggling with. So it turned into a constant stream of something happening, my character then feeling bad, then everyone focusing on my character feeling bad, then my character trying to fix things, everyone telling him that he's doing it wrong, my character feeling even worse.... and me wondering why my character cannot just exist in peace, why we constantly have to focus on him instead of the "plot". I don't think anyone was interested in constantly discussing my character's mental state, I definitely wasn't interested in doing that, and yet we kept doing it. But I also did not know how to have him react differently to the constant shit getting thrown at him.
______
So, basically:
Around three years ago a friend of mine told me about this new dnd campaign they were starting and asked me to join. I've known this friend for half my life but we never lived close to each other, maintaining loose contact over Twitter and me visisting them every two or three years. I had never played dnd before, which they didn't think would be a problem, calling the campaign "very beginner friendly". The whole point behind this campaign was that both this friend (the dm) and two of the players from the main campaign they were playing wanted to play more regularly, so my friend/dm came up with this campaign which was basically a prequel to that main campaign. That main campaign was a more "traditional" dnd campaign with a quest to save the world and regular combat. Meanwhile this new campaign was supposed to be focused on roleplay. There was no overarching plot or quest and the setting was an arcane school and our characters were supposed to be students at said school, just starting their first semester.
When creating our characters the dm asked us to include at least one character in the backstory that was important for our character, and also an objective for our character, something they wanted to achieve. The character I came up with was a young half-elf wizard specialising in abjuration. The gist of his story was that his parents had been arrested and executed for high treason when he was very young and that he grew up rather isolated with his older brother in a place they were not allowed to leave before coming off age. When my character was 14 he woke up one morning to find his brother gone. He had left him only a cryptic letter, hinting at wanting to find out what had really happened to their parents, telling my character that he was sorry and that he would come back. When his brother had not come back after several months, my character too ran away and made his way to Candlekeep, which he had visited many times with his parents (who had been scholars) as a child. He tried to find answers in Candlekeep and spent the following three years hiding in the library before something prompted him to leave and travel to the aforementioned arcane school in order to study there. His objective was to find out why his parents had to die, what happened to his brother, and adjusting to normal life after years of isolation.
Personality wise this character was supposed to be very kind, very gentle, quite naive, honest, and at the beginning of the campaign rather anxious. My assumption was that after growing up in isolation he would need some time to get acclimatised and would be anxious and overwhelmed in the beginning but would loosen up with time and become more self-confident. Some bad stuff happened early on in the campaign and he reacted to it in a rather not healthy way (withdrawing, refusing to eat, but also not talking about what was going on because he didn't want to put the focus on himself). I messed up here, I realised that later. I assumed the other characters would sit him down and ask him what was going on, leading to some kind of cathartic conversation, my character then revealing his past, and him becoming more confident and positive through it, completely resolving this issue. I didn't realise that introducing these kind of psychological issues into the story would be an issue, simply because I wasn't planning on making it a big thing. I thought it would be realistic for him to react this way and I thought it was something that could easily be resolved. Nowadays I would approach this completely differently: if I were to play this character now I would make this whole "accepting his past, becoming more self-confident and open" thing part of his backstory and would start him off as being confident and in tune with his emotions, instead of trying to quickly get through this development at the start of the campaign. So I think I know what I SHOULD have done to prevent this from escalating. What I am trying to figure out is what I could have done to fix it AFTER realising my mistake. Because we spent months and months trying to resolve this issue and never really got anywhere. Despite me trying my best to keep the focus away from my character, despite me trying to turn him into someone more confident and happy, despite me NOT WANTING him to be the focus of the story and doing my best to keep him out of the spotlight.
______
Here is an example of the things going on in the story, to which my character reacted badly and me not knowing how else I could have had him react that would not have caused further conflict:
Over the course of the campaign L. figured out what his brother was up to after him and his friends getting intro trouble and a mysterious stranger helping them get out of there and that stranger then revealing himself to be A.'s husband (and therefore my character's brother-in-law). L. had a lenghty discussion with this person and after that I basically viewed L.'s conflict as resolved: he now knew why his brother had left, he knew that it had not been his fault, and he knew that his brother had found someone who loved him and was not alone. L. still hoped to be able to see his brother again to get to say goodbye properly. Because in L.'s mind there was no other possibility but this being a goodbye: his brother had a new life now that he, L., was not part of anymore. And L. accepted that. There was no anger, no resentment, only relief knowing that his brother was not alone, had someone by his side who loved him, and that he still cared about L. and that L. had not - as he had feared - done anything that had caused his brother to not want to be near him anymore. He had finally gotten the closure he had needed, he was feeling okay and I viewed this whole conflict as resolved.
Fast forward a few weeks: A. finally suceeded in doing what he had been working on these past few years and returned to L., just like he had promised in the letter he had left him all that time ago. When talking to him, L. realised that A. was not actually planning on leaving, like L. had assumed. Instead A. told him that he and his husband would stay and look for a new home near L.'s school. L. was very surprised by this but of course he was also happy. He hadn't even considered that his brother would stay. His biggest hope had been that his brother would occasionally send him a letter from whereever he was. Him actually wanting to stay was very unexpected for L. but of course he was very happy about it. They also had some good conversations during that time, which not only brought L. further closure but also revealed connections between several past plot points.
About a week after A.'s return L. went to visit him. He just wanted to spend some time with his brother and also ask him for advice. The semester was coming to an end and everyone was busy preparing for the final exams and L. also still needed to find an internship placement for the summer break. L. wanted to do his internship in Candlekeep but was unsure on how to approach this, who to contact, how to phrase his request, so he thought asking his eloquent and knowledgable brother for advice would be a good idea. This conversation quickly went downhill with A. accusing L. of not respecting the people working at Candlekeep enough to do proper research beforehand and L. ending up feeling like he didn't deserve doing an internship there and ending up feeling even more stressed out about the whole thing than he had already been beforehand. They changed the topic and at some point A. started to jokingly fighting L. and putting him in a headlock. L. had no interest in fighting his brother, even as a joke, and reacted by going limp so he could slip away. A. then asked something along the lines of "So that's how you react in a fight? You just give up?" and L. said "Well, I know you would never intentionally hurt me with no good reason". The next second L. was falling. He was up in the sky, the ground many meters below him, and he was falling. L. immediately deduced that this must be some kind of enchantment and tried to fight it, but neither acknowledging that this wasn't real nor trying to shake it off did anything. He did not know any flying or hovering spells, nothing that would help him stop the fall, and ended up crashing into the ground. The next moment he was in some kind of water pool inside a cave that he struggled to get out of. A. was waiting by the cave entrance and offered L. his hand when he got out. L. refused to take it. A. then left and L. eventually followed, finding himself back in the room they had been in before. Either in the cave or shortly afterwards A. asked L. why he hadn't just used a spell to stop his fall, being surprised by L.'s statement that he had not yet learned an appropriate spell. L. eventually sat down at the table and did some exam preparation. A. made some food and put some in front of L. which L. ignored. Eventually L. looked up and asked A. what his biggest fear was. A. had just put L. through several of his biggest fears - falling, drowning, not being able to trust the ones he loves, and getting his control taken away - so he wanted to know what A. was scared of most. A. the told L. that his biggest fear was someone using his abilities to do something bad. And then he explained to L. that he had come to the conclusion that he would not be able to stay after all. That while he was able to defend himself, L. was not, and anyone wanting to get to A. would have an easy time doing so through L. who was evidently not able to defend himself. L. did not take that well and asked A. why he couldn't just train L. so he would get better at defending himself but A. refused. A. then said he would take a walk and allowed L. to come with him. They walked for several hours without talking, ending up in the middle of a forest where some ancient creature appeared that A. had helped several years ago and that was now nearing the end of its life and had called A. there to say goodbye. A. also explained to L. that he did not actually want to stay. That he - A. - had been naive in thinking that he could just live a normal life and that it had been nothing but a dream and that he simply wasn't made for that kind of life. Some time during that conversation A. also told L. that he was convinced that he would end up in the Nine Hells for the things he had done. They spent the night in the woods and the next morning L. realised that all his things had been stolen by some fey creatures, including his spell book. After searching for several hours they were able to find his spellbook, which had been smeared with insults. A. managed to clean it up and they returned back home and L. was reuinted with the rest of the group. Before L. left A. also gifted him an indestructable spellbook. A few days after these events L. went to the temple and addressed Mystra, telling her how lost he was feeling and how worried he was about his brother. He told her that he wanted nothing more than to protect the ones around him but how he was constantly failing in doing so. And how he just wanted his brother to be safe and how he was worried he would really eventually end up in the Nine Hells and how he didn't think A. deserved that but that he didn't know how to prevent that from happening. The next morning L. found some strange piece of cloth on his face which after some examination was revealed to be an item belonging to Mystra which she had used to hide something in the past. The very condensed explanation of what that item does is that whe attuned to it one cannot be found through any kind of traditional divination magic, making one basically undetectable. The next time L. saw A. he told him about this item and A. was basically like "Oh cool, well in that case we can actually stay here". L.'s reaction was to start crying and A. asked him why he was so upset and why everything was always the end of the world to him.
The way I see this whole situation: I simply wanted L. to spend some time with his brother, hopefully get some advice from him regarding that internship and then going back to the rest of the group. Instead what happened was that A. first called him disrespectful for wanting to do an internship at a place and not having done enough research beforehand. Then taking L.'s statement "you wouldn't hurt me with no good reason" to assault L. Then telling L. that he would not stay after all due to L. apparently not being able to defend himself. Then explaining to him that "actually, I didn't want to stay in the first place", and then a few days later telling him he WILL stay after all. So basically, L. had accepted that his brother would not come back to him for good, he had accepted this and had found closure. Then his brother told him he WOULD stay and L. was of course happy about this surprising turn of events. Then his brother told him that due to L. he CANNOT stay. Then he tells him he doesn't WANT to stay anyway, confirming the exact reasoning behind L.'s initial assumption that A. would not stay. And then after realising the threat was eliminated, decided to stay afterall, despite having it made very clear that he did not actually WANT to stay... and apparently only staying because he thought that's what L. wants, despite L. repeatedly explaining that his priority is for A. to be happy and that he does not want A. to stay if that's not what makes him happy and A. just completely ignoring that? Am I really the only person who thinks that it's understandable why L. is confused and upset in this situation? Plus the constant "What do you mean, you don't know [this one simple thing]?" when L. is already barely able to get a regular long rest in between trying to keep up with school work and all the stuff that's going on at the side, like a literal war for example, and constantly feeling that no matter what he decides it's always wrong and he never has enough time to do the things he is supposed to do, let alone the things he wants to do? Plus him wanting to spend the afternoon with his brother turning into a 36 hour long event and him having to spend half a day looking for his spellbook, only to find it smeared with insults?
Am I being dense for not understanding what the whole point of this was? Trying to make it clear to L. that his brother is a powerful and dangerous person? He was already very aware of that and did not need a reminder. Proving to L. that he shouldn't trust his brother? Why even associate with him in the first place if you don't want him to trust you? Giving him the indestructable spellbook was nice. But was having some fey creatures steal his original one and smear insults all over it and him having to spend hours searching for it really necessary?
Whatever the hell it is the dm was trying to do here, I think a simple, calm conversation between those two would have been a lot more effective.
But maybe it's clearer from the outside, so if someone else understands what happened here, please help me understand.
______
Another situation was that due to his struggles early on in the campaign my character was supposed to see the school's healer once a week so she could make sure that he was okay. My character went there once a week, feeling more or less okay when entering her office, and coming out feeling confused and upset after having his mental state analysed and picked apart. Neither did my character enjoy this nor did I think that any of the players (including myself) had any interest in listening to my character discuss his emotions every week. So eventually I had my character write a letter to the headmistress, explaning that he wanted to stop doing these weekly check-ins. Upon being asked why, he explained that these appointments actively made him feel bad and that he would do a lot better if he didn't constantly feel pressured into talking about things he didn't want to talk about. The reaction was that he was told that if he cannot handle simply being asked how he was doing once a week, then he wasn't stable enough to go to school, and consequently got kicked out. Leading to us spending two sessions trying to resolve this and my character eventually being allowed back into the school. ______
The situations I described are the kind of thing that constantly happened to my character.
We had a calendar where we wrote down short descriptions of what happened each day. I once went through this calendar with a friend (who does not play dnd) and it basically went like this: "So that day this traumatic thing happened to L., and the next day this happened, and two days later this happened, then the next day he almost died, then three days later he discovered this, the next day this other thing happened,....", and my friend just went "Holy shit, it's no surprise that this kid is losing his marmbles."
So I keep alternating between "I messed up this whole campaign by creating a problematic character" and the feeling that the dm had it out for specifically my character and it didn't matter what I did, nothing could have solved this.
Some constructive ideas on what I did wrong and what I could have done to fix things would be appreciated. (And yes, we did talk about this in the group. I eventually got tired of talking about it because it never lead anywhere.

Gratitude to Namo Sakyamuni Buddha!
Gratitude to the Greatly Merciful and Greatly Compassionate Guan Yin Bodhisattva!
Gratitude to all Buddhas and Bodhisattvas from ten directions and three periods of time!
Gratitude to the Dharma protectors!
Gratitude to the selfless, altruistic, and benevolent Master Lu!
Hello everyone! I am Buddhist practitioner Li. Today, with immense gratitude, I share with you my Buddhist experience. The topic is: The severe 30-year anemia completely recovered via Buddhism
In 2016, I started practicing Buddhism when the opportunity arose. In 2017, I invited Guan Yin Bodhisattva into my home. After setting up the Buddhist altar, I frequently witnessed the rolls of incense ash and the blooming of lotus flowers on oil lamps. These strengthened my confidence in practicing Buddhism and reciting Buddhist scriptures, and every day was filled with joy from the Dharma!
In 2018, at the age of 49, my master enlightened me I entered the age of my 369 predestined calamity. From my recollections, I specifically followed Master Lu's guidance and made vows to Guan Yin Bodhisattva, reciting 49 Little Houses to help my karmic creditors.
One afternoon, while crossing the street, I had two large bags in my hands and decided to set them down on the ground for a moment to rest my hands before picking them up again. As I looked up, I saw a car speeding towards me, and I was terrified, unsure of how to avoid it. In that moment of emergency, I shouted, "Bodhisattva bless me," and accelerated to run across the street. The car didn't slow down at all and whooshed past me from behind. When I turned my head, I was shocked—it was such a close call! It nearly hit me. I am grateful for the compassionate blessings of Guan Yin Bodhisattva, which allowed me to safely pass through the calamity at the age of 49.
I have been suffering from anemia since giving birth, nearly 30 years ago. Before I started practicing Buddhism, I had tried various blood tonics, but none of them worked. Normally, whenever I took blood tonic medicine, my hemoglobin levels would rise slightly, but if I didn't take the medicine, I would feel drowsy and lethargic every day.
In 2020, I knelt before the Buddhist altar and made vows to abstain from killing and adopt a fully vegetarian diet, praying for the blessings of the Bodhisattvas to maintain my health and help eliminate karmic obstacles. I persisted in reciting sets of 21 and 69 Little Houses in cycles, and over the years, I have recited a few thousands sheets. I also made vows to recite 108 Little Houses to eliminate karmic obstacles related to my eyesight, release 1200 fish, adhere to reading and reciting the Buddhism in Plain Terms, distribute Dharma materials as opportunities arose, promote vegetarianism, conduct monthly animal liberation, propagate Dharma in online groups, and offer free Dharma Gems to new practitioners, among other practices.
On December 5, 2023, I went to the hospital for a routine blood test, and the results came back normal! My hemoglobin level, which used to be 80-90, was now 145, within the reference range of 110-150. The doctor said that my levels had improved and that I could stop taking medication.
Grateful for the compassionate blessings of Guan Yin Bodhisattva, being vegetarian and reciting scriptures can indeed remove karma and help repay karmic debts! Being vegetarian and reciting scriptures have restored my health indicators to normal, which is truly beyond my expectations! Gratitude to the compassionate Guan Yin Bodhisattva for always answering prayers, blessing me with health, and rescuing me from the sea of suffering.
Previously, I also suffered from recurrent mouth ulcers, which would take 15 to 20 days to heal each time they occurred. The pain from the ulcers would unsettle my mind and seriously affect my daily life. Now, the mouth ulcers have also healed without my noticing!
The Buddha's teachings are truly magnificent. The countless miraculous occurrences that have happened to me and my family fully prove the authenticity of the Dharma. I will definitely persevere, diligently propagate the Dharma, recite scriptures to eliminate karma, strengthen my faith, respect my master, uphold the path with diligence, and never regress!
Gratitude to Namo Sakyamuni Buddha!
Gratitude to the Greatly Merciful and Greatly Compassionate Guan Yin Bodhisattva!
Gratitude to all Buddhas and Bodhisattvas from ten directions and three periods of time!
Gratitude to the Dharma protectors!
Gratitude to the selfless, altruistic, and benevolent Master Lu!
If there is anything that is not rational or in line with the truth in the presentation, I pray for forgiveness from Namo Sakyamuni Buddha, the Greatly Merciful and Greatly Compassionate Guan Yin Bodhisattva, all Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, and Dharma protectors.
I would appreciate my fellow Buddhist practitioners' critique and correction! I, not my fellow Buddhist practitioners, will be responsible for my own karma!
Buddhist practitioner: Cai Hong, Gratitude and Namaste!

大家好！我是李同修。今天，我怀着无比感恩的心情来和大家分享，题目是：严重贫血症完全康复，灵验案例数不胜数
我是2016年机缘成熟走进佛门的。2017年，我把观世音菩萨请回了家。设佛台后，我经常看到香打卷、油灯结莲花，这些增强了我学佛念经的信心，天天法喜充满！
2018年我49岁，师父开示我逢年龄的369关劫。记忆中，我有按照师父的开示针对性地向观世音菩萨许愿帮自己的要经者念诵49张经文组合。
有一天下午，我过马路时，当时手里拿着两个大包，放在地上缓一下手再拿起来。抬头一看，一辆车飞快地向我驶来，我当时吓得不知如何躲避。紧急时刻我大喊：“菩萨保佑”，并加速跑过街。这辆车完全没有减速，“嗖”的一声从我身后飞驰而去……我扭头一看，吓坏了，太悬了！只差一点点就撞到我了。感恩大慈大悲观世音菩萨保佑，让我顺利地渡过了49岁这个关劫。
从生孩子之后我就开始贫血，至今已有近三十年了。学佛前，我曾吃过补血偏方，也不管用。平时，只要我吃补血药，血色素（又称血红蛋白）的指数就能上来点，如果不吃药我就天天犯困、没劲。
2020年，我跪在佛台前许愿戒杀、吃全素，祈求菩萨保佑我身体健康，帮我消除业障。我坚持21张一拨，69张一拨，这样循环着念诵经文组合，几年下来已经念了几千张了。我还许愿为了消除眼睛的业障，帮自己的要经者念诵108张经文组合，放生1200条鱼，坚持读诵《白话佛法》，随缘发书度人，发素食宣传单，坚持每个月放生，坚持随缘在群里法布施，免费结缘法宝给新同修等等。
2023年12月5日，我去医院化验血常规，结果一切正常了！我的血色素值原来是80～90左右，这次检查的结果是145，参考值在110-150。医生说，指标上来了，可以停药了。
感恩观世音菩萨慈悲保佑，吃素、念经真的可以消业还债啊！吃素、念经让我的指标恢复正常了，真是太出乎意料了！感恩大慈大悲观世音有求必应，保佑我身体健康，救我脱离苦海。
以前，我还患有口腔溃疡，一犯病就需要15天到20天才能好。溃疡疼得我心烦意乱，严重影响了我的日常生活。现在，口腔溃疡也不知不觉好了！
再说一下母亲：2020年7月，我送82岁的母亲回老家看望大姨。当时村里刚好有人过世。当车到达小区门口时，母亲下车时随口就讲了一句：“死人啦”！伴随而来的是，“咚”的一声，母亲突然摔倒了！我们都忙着提东西，没人注意到母亲是怎么摔倒的。当路人和我扶起母亲时，只见她左脸擦破点皮，裤子破了个洞，摔得她都麻木了。但是，母亲还是坚持走到了大姨家，然后她就躺下了。我看见母亲的左胳膊青紫一大片，就带着她去医院检查。医生说左胳膊骨折了，需要涂药、打上夹板慢慢静养恢复，不需要住院。母亲也学佛念经，回到大姨家，她念了三拨心灵密码7829，外加冰块冷敷伤处，输液换药。
大姨家没有佛台。我上心香向观世音菩萨许愿帮母亲放生1200条鱼和10只甲鱼；帮母亲的要经者烧送21张经文组合，祈求菩萨保佑母亲快点好起来。在母亲状态比较安稳时，我回家上香，在佛台前祈求菩萨保佑母亲早日康复。祈求完后，我就帮母亲烧送了21张她自存的经文组合，又帮她放生了600条鱼和10只甲鱼。几天后，当我再次返回大姨家时，母亲已经好了许多：胳膊消肿了，也不痛了。事发一个月左右，母亲和我一同回到家后，我们又放生了600条鱼。
俗话说：伤筋动骨一百天。医生本来不让拆夹板。8月份的天津是最热的天气，母亲带了一个月的夹板后觉得洗澡不方便，就把夹板拆了下来，用布条挎在胳膊上避免碰伤。没想到，80多岁的老人，一个月的时间骨头已经长好了——我们全家人高兴得不得了。这都是菩萨慈悲保佑和加持的结果呀！ 母亲非常精进，每天早上站在自家佛台前念经两个小时，晚上念一个小时，每天坚持念3张左右经文组合，坚持听师父的节目录音。师兄们，我们一定要真心地学佛念经，只有诚心求菩萨保佑才能得到菩萨的慈悲庇佑呀！
经文组合是大慈大悲观世音菩萨赐给我们人间的法宝，末法时期经文组合在灵界是大支票，帮助我们超度灵性、还清孽债，真是冥阳两利！生活的烦恼让我懂得：只有学佛念经，知因懂果才能改变命运；只有精进学佛修心才能成功！
佛法真是太伟大了，发生在我和家人身上的灵验事例数不胜数，充分证明了心灵法门真实不虚！我一定会持之以恒，好好地弘法度人，念经消业，坚定信心，尊师重道，一门精进，永不退转！
再次感恩南无释迦牟尼佛！感恩南无大慈大悲救苦救难广大灵感观世音菩萨摩诃萨！感恩十方三世一切诸佛菩萨及龙天护法金刚菩萨！感恩弘法度众舍身忘我的恩师慈父卢军宏薹长！
分享过程中如有不如理不如法之处，请南无释迦牟尼佛慈悲原谅！请南无大慈大悲观世音菩萨慈悲原谅！请十方三世一切诸佛菩萨及龙天护法菩萨慈悲原谅！请师兄们批评指正！我自己的业障自己背，不让师兄们背。
