What's Bothering You?

I’m glad you caught him in time. Jewels had done the same thing with these fancy feast treats

I’m very lucky she and/or Spanky didn’t get sick. Now I keep them sealed in a container with a lid. For treats that are in a bag, once I finish these off, I plan on storing them in this.

(sorry if this comes across rude or if you weren’t looking for a response. Just wanted to share since I thought it might be helpful. I didn’t think I’d need to put the treats in something better until this happened).

Lol we keep our cat treats in a similar container. Our cats have never broken in, but I could totally see our middle cat pulling off a heist. He's pretty devious lol

Have you gone through customer service and had them call you? It’s a bit of a pain messing with the bot but you can eventually get a live person who will call you. I think they can help you avoid having to create a whole new account. That’s my experience in the US. I don’t know where you are located.

Thanks~
What's crazy is that I needed to be logged in to use customer service? Like even speaking to the bot I needed to make another account just to do that, and when I did speak to someone they said the only people who can help you in that area you would need to call them. Which I am not overally fond of doing. Don't really like talking to people like this in general.
But if I do want my other account back, I might call then next week.
It's crazy cause before this new account I made, I tried making one for my mum, with my phone as well and it didn't want to work? Like said I didn't do a two code thing and when trying to sign in, said there was unsual acitvity and forced me out. Crazy.

I don't even like Amazon that much anymore. And only wanted to do this to get something for my cats which I've done already.

I woke up to my grandma *****ing on the phone, cussing someone out and saying she can’t wait until “Trump gets in office to clean up the idiots out of this great country.”

Yeah… Great.

Also, I’m sick of being called my legal name. She gets upset because she knows I’m keeping something from her and that I’m not giving her a chance. That makes me feel like a bad person because I’m really not giving her a chance, but she has no issue with physically hitting me if I piss her off. I brought up the name thing a few years ago and she slapped me.

I’m so sorry! Grandma’s should be loving and affirming. And you’re definitely not a bad person. It’s called self preservation and you owe that to yourself! S**** grandma’s that behave like that.

As a warning this might be a bit tmi but I gotta vent. Yesterday morning I woke up and my gut hurt so so bad and I felt like I needed to use the toilet so bad and I was sitting there and I thought I had kidney stones for the first time or something. The pain was that bad. I threw up on an empty stomach all clear a little later.

Since I woke up then I’ve been shivering a lot and then getting sweaty… temparature crazy, even though the weather is ideal. I thought I must have some infection that’s suddenly hit today. But no it was just that time of month creeping up on me with absolutely zero warning this time.

I don’t want a uterus… I just don’t… medical professionals don’t listen to it, people always treat it like something sacred when I want no kids and I’m clearly repeatedly in pain from this, I’m not cis anyway and a lot of days having this thing in me makes me disassociate, my cycle is inconsistent and this hurts so bad and even though I have medicine it can’t hide it man.

So I know you said this is personal, and I guess this is personal as well…birth control can help a lot with these situations. I don’t know if you meant that when you said medicine. I hope you feel better soon! Nothing is worse. Hopefully your Dr. has assessed you for cysts, endometriosis, etc.

I looked up the weather predictions for the next 2 weeks and I am just feeling dread. Very low temperatures (lower than what went through this December) and I can't sleep in a better room. I know it's less accurate the farther away it is, but I have never seen these winter temperatures go up much. They often get lower than what was originally said.
At this point I wish winter only lasted one month. I cannot take anymore of this.

The new cable for my ipad did not solve my apple pencil problem so I think I’m going to have to take it to an apple store and see if someone can help me. I’m so annoyed about this.

Thanks! I don’t mind the advice at all. I did actually get an ultrasound for endo and nada, which I find really hard to believe, no idea about cysts. Unfortunately BC made me less than happy about life the one time I tried, so I’m pretty afraid to go on it, it’s almost been two years since then but it was some of the worst I’ve ever felt. My medicine for it is not OTC, it’s pretty good stuff, though honestly without it I don’t think I would be walking during that time of the month. It’s just not right to me I just get medicine slapped on when this is going to be almost lifelong. I STILL have times like this and there has to be a better option than just medicating when it starts… I know there are some other BC options but I’m scared of them all as they’re generally hormonally based. In an ideal world I would just want to not have a uterus in the first place. Man young me had absolutely no pain from periods and it’s just continuously gotten worse, I have the feeling it is still getting worse but the medicine is hiding that.

That really is annoying. It might make you feel better if i tell you my story….about 9 months ago I purchased the new IPad Pro. I decided to splurge and get the Apple Pencil pro as well even though I don’t do art cuz I can’t draw. Anyway during the TBT seasonal event I was seeing so many awesome digital drawings I decided I should get it out and try it. Well…..I can’t find it…anywhere. I have spent days and hours looking everywhere I could have possibly put it. First, I am really OCD about clutter and everything has to be put away. But I also am an organize freak. So I KNOW I would have put it someplace logical and not just “tossed” it in a drawer. I do have a really huge house with lots of storage space and closets, etc. I unfortunately use it all too. But it is nowhere to be found! I only have one dreaded concern….back in August when my husband was in hospital, I purged a lot of stuff to donate. I guess It’s possible I accidentally donated it. Makes me sick to think about it!

Spoiler: possible tw

I'm pretty sure I have some kind of eating disorder. I don't know how I've never been diagnosed with one in the past. I really should bring it up to a doctor because I tend to have an unhealthy relationship with food and an internalized hatred of my body and weight. it really got to me yesterday evening, and especially today but I don't even know who to bring this up to, my PCP or my psychiatrist?

also started thinking about a few of my loved ones on my drive to work today, those whom I was really close to and I've lost in recent years. honestly wanted to cry.

Both. Because you need both medical and mental advice/treatment.

I have a health practitioner background so I’m not just blathering…

I really despise the way my dad berates me for things that don't make sense and then doesn't understand when I try to apologize to him.


Oh, and he has a mentality that he is always right 100% of the time.

I think it's because both your and their comments were based on Apple products?

Lategamer's comment made me think about how I can't find this really old reel labeled wedding. I know it's got to be somewhere in my house because it was in a box full of old pictures of my grandmother. And now I can't find it. The only thing I can think is family came by to look through the pictures for the funeral and somehow lost/tossed the reel. I wish I could've made a digital copy and now I might not be able to. Even so I'm not sure how I would even go about making a copy since as far as I can tell I'd only be able to project it onto a wall if I found a projector that could play it.

i actually just have anxiety 24/7 these days. so much to do with work and other little things that probably shouldn't get under my skin but they just somehow do anyway!! i started playing on my anti-stress apps again which has been helping but i have so many thoughts going through my head all the time. 2024 was just not it. hoping 2025 will not be as bad.

 

[ShadowLelouch97]

People have been calling off left and right lately from work because of sickness or personal stuff, which is totally valid but there are days I feel like I wanna call off but I can't because then we'd be too short staffed. We don't have enough people working the shifts to attend the registers, stock the product and help the needy and often times, ungrateful customers.

I just need a break, but I can't ask for multiple days off in a row because some random lady in another state makes our schedules, and I have these long as heck days back to back 5 days in a row with only 1 day off in between each!

You have OCD too or you mean clutter makes you anxious? Just want to clarify since I have OCD and I see the term misused a lot. I’m sorry that happened; not sure what that has to do with what happened with me, though. It’s just a minor problem; at least it charges when I stick it in the bottom of my ipad.

Well historically OCD in the DSM-4 was diagnosed under the anxiety disorder classification. With the updated version DSM-5 (2013) OCD was grouped in its own classification. But to answer your question, no I did not misuse the term and yes I do suffer from anxiety which is a common comorbidity of OCD. There are common misconceptions about the OCD diagnosis with people often thinking it is only identified with repetitive actions, etc. All of that being said, I do not have an official diagnosis of OCD since many behaviors associated with the disorder overlap with several others. However, I do suffer and exhibit behaviors that fall within that spectrum.
Sorry, I did not mean to offend you or to minimize your frustration with your current Apple situation. I was only attempting to connect with you by sharing my own experience with my Apple Pencil.
I hope you can get your pencil working flawlessly with the aid of Apple Customer care.

You didn’t offend me. I’m sorry if it seemed like I was and if it came out the wrong way. I was just curious about the ocd; I’ve seen way too many people use the term to describe something that isn’t, so I wasn’t sure how you meant it. I also was confused since your experience didn’t sound like anything like mine.
