What is the bravest thing

I was quite disappointed. I ate so many seeds lmao. It lowers your chances but not to zero. Doesn't matter if your baby hasn't had anything but breastmilk. Doesn't matter if you haven't a normal cycle.

All of those things they say. It doesn't matter. I promise you absolutely without a doubt CAN get pregnant while breastfeeding. There's nothing about emotional lability at all. That's an entirely different disorder. I've been going to my local DBSA support group weekly for years and it seems like it's not a happy thing like for most people.

Hypomania can be, but mania doesn't seem to be. I can bawl my eyes out for 20 minutes for no reason, and still laugh at a dumb sitcom joke before crying again. I didn't realize I had OCD because of this and because it often overlaps with other mental illnesses. Why tell your kid this? What's the point? The logical thing to do when you try to survive is to evolve a bigger brain, just to not use it.

What are you talking about? Stayed with them 3 years. Realized that I was always the one initiating. What hurt most is they never reached out to ask where I was or why I never hung out with them anymore. Then I sat in on a conversation of them talking about how they'd been sharing a toothbrush between them for weeks there was 3 of them - they were arguing about whose it actually was.

They were underage, had guns illegally, and they lied so much it was just cringy. They kept acting hard and tough, saying I was soft.

Those guys were plain ridiculous and really dangerous, just not in the way they thought. I socialize with several actual narcos, and if there is one thing they would never do it is disrespect a mom's birthday like that. Nobody I had met before besides her. Dude's roommate comes home and he's obviously a bit imbalanced, which the other occupant had sorta warned us about. We weren't even loud at all, just chilling and having a drink and chatting. Walked like 10 miles back home in the middle of the night.

Happy to have dodged that whole scene. I just said, 'this would be a bad thing for me' out loud and walked to the other side of the room. Instead everyone got crazy drunk. I think Bill Murray's a great actor and did a great job in 'Lost in Translation. He refused to clean it up and the mutual friends said I was blowing it out of proportion and should just leave it.

I was going to be the DD since they had already all been drinking, but I had no desire to put up with this behavior for the rest of the night. I just couldn't associate myself with her or treat her with any semblance of respect anymore.

She just outright stopped being human in my head. They were low on the totem pole trying to 'break into the scene. I would have never ever gone through with it and the fact they wanted to rob something is what made me decide to leave my group of child hood friends forever.

And your insurance plan of not getting caught is for me to hide out in my car down the street and look for police??? Each one of them has a drug problem, a few of them have gone to jail, luckily nobody is dead. By far the greatest decision I made was realizing I grew out of these friends and moving on with my life at the age of You guys just want a cheap trip to Hawaii, I'm not going to let you come stay with me when you haven't talked to me in months!

Went back to the US on a vacation with my family a couple years later, and I made plans to visit and old childhood friend. Hung out several times a week after school. He was a really friendly, kind and funny kid. Starts off a perfectly normal and pleasant night. Mostly people were just asking me questions about myself and my life in Denmark.

Seemed like a friendly group of folks There was not a single person there who wasn't incredibly eager to contribute to the cascade of racial epithets, stereotypes and ignorant hate-remarks being thrown out at a staggering velocity.

Apparently most of them had at least one prior or pending assault charge for beating up a black person. Now that you've read through the Reddit Red Flag parade, it's your turn to share. Want to "know" more? Never miss another big, odd, funny or heartbreaking moment again.

Whereas if you'd just listened to someone's advice beforehand, you may have avoided making this mistake—but on the other hand, the issue being dealt with would certainly not leave as great an impression upon you. Redditor TheNewSuspect asked:. Whether you want them in your life or not. Some people are going to do what they want to do regardless. Never think of it as 'I'll worry about it later. I had a friend who paid off just the bare minimum each month for years.

Then he got a third credit card to pay off the second. Then he had 3 maxed credit cards and was freaking out. Went on for years, I told myself that they're toxic for me, but that it was still possible that I was toxic for them. It seems like you wish you could take back this mistake that made you learn, but then, you wouldn't be who you are now without it. Some people, maybe even most, do jobs they tolerate so they can enjoy themselves outside of work.

But I didn't want to be 'that guy. I didn't want to be 'that guy. I sure thought it was mine. I was in the delivery room with her and paid for everything. She didn't know they would do a DNA test to see if I was the real father. She never even tried to deny it after that. It was a huge blow to me and my family. I was right all the time about not trusting her.

It wasn't me being unreasonable, it was reality and I ignored it. Everybody thought I was the scum of the earth. I met the love of my life just a few months later, we moved out of state and we've been VERY happily married over 10 years. Not everyone can be helped or 'saved;' it's not your job to heal every single person, and you can't let that tear you apart. You will KNOW when someone truly cares for you.

Otherwise they will keep on bugging you! I guess most of life's greatest lessons are learned the hard way. I was the toxic one. It took me a very long time to forgive myself. It took me a decade and a half to learn how to do that. If they are real friends and family they will support you and tell when you're being a real dick.

Do you know him? So why concern yourself with what he might think, he probably doesn't care or notice. Better to move on with your life and let them with theirs than pine everytime they have a new hookup, partner, are doing something you wish you were doing with them. At least in my case, I tend to overshare when I'm too excited, sad, or angry. If you are able to--the time to take stock of these lessons is now, after reading this article, than when you're in a tough situation and have to start making choices.

My mom would seriously even threaten to look up their phone number, and tell them embarrassing lies about me if I misbehaved at all.

Because of this, I still feel a deep sense of shame about anything remotely romantic, and am extremely secretive about my love life. Like wtf? I never felt comfortable going to them about anything and I still don't. Finding out I was pregnant and was going to get married in Vegas was a shock to them since I never told them anything. Pretty sure they thought I was going to be a nun. He was 14 years older than me I was 18 and he was 32 and appeared to have his life together since he had a good career, a beautiful house, and a lot of nice material things.

He also happened to be abusive in every single way you could be abusive to another human being. She basically said I provoked him and that I deserved everything. She invited him to thanksgiving and Christmas the year we broke up and I refused to go. I had my first Friendsgiving that year and spent Christmas alone. Perhaps some parents aren't meant to be parents because they feel like their lives have been inconvenienced.

Making room for another human is tough, but these individuals showed us the true bottom. If I wanted to inherit anything, I should look for a man who is an only child to marry. F-ck her. My dad told me that I'm wasting all his money because my "sickness was all in my head. But I will never forget those words, and how terrible they felt.

This was our last big fight, after I turned my life and new home upside down to move her in with me after cleaning her disgusting apartment she was no longer capable of cleaning or taking care of , get her on assistance needed for her medical issues, drove all over the city multiple times to get her medication and needed items, etc etc etc all for not even a thank you.

Just more abuse. The one that sometimes still hurts when I think about it is when I was 19 and came home for winter break from college and was told 'Things are so much easier when you aren't here. And then there's parents like these, people who should never have been burdened with the responsibility for another. I really oughta carry out her past-self's wishes.

You were only married for 3 years when YOUR husband died. I was married 30 years when MY husband died. You have NO right!! We were young and didn't realize that he had been working graveyard shift and had only been in bed for an hour. He stormed out of bed in a rage, grabbed his belt and went to town on us. I got mad instead! He's a horrible, ignorant racist and I severed connections a while back. My father was in the Klan.

My mother was horrified when she found out. They divorced in I didn't find out until the mid 80s. I'm much better off, trust me!! Sign Up. When my dresser fell down and I jumped to save my brother. Zip lining. Going to sleepaway camp. When I was four, I punched a little boy in the face because he pushed around a little girl. I went on a roller coaster. Probably do a zip line across a huge lake at camp. Defend someone. Seen my grandma who has Alzheimer's.

Some guys were like, making fun of my friends, so then I like, went over to them and told them they needed to stop. Tell my parents that I wanna pursue acting and singing as a career. I went boulder climbing without any gear to conquer my fear of heights.

When I was in eighth grade, my friend was being bullied and I stood up for her and I confronted the bully. I acted for the first time on stage when I was 10 in Fiddler on the Roof and I had huge stage fright. Getting onstage alone in front of a large group of people. Committing to following through on my passions as an artist. Getting out of a depression after losing my best friend.

I hate talking in front of people, so anytime I've given a speech, it feels like the bravest thing I've ever done. Leaving an abusive relationship. And it was. But there was also an inner knowing and trust that the path of truth was the right direction. How could I go wrong? And indeed, it proved to be right.
