I have a diet that is very high in sugar. I eat sweets a lot and lots of things that have high sugar content. I am also exhausted and in the perimenopause. My diet all over is pretty bad these days tbh.
I know that sugar is making me feel worse and adding to my weight, but I also crave it like mad when I try to cut down. I think at my age I risk diabetes too. I know it messes up my diet because I snack instead of eating properly and then am hungry a lot and so I snack again as I am so tired and don’t want to cook. I drink Diet Coke most days.
Is there a resource anyone could guide me to that gives ideas and encouragement for cutting sugar down sugar to fruit only? I don’t mind keeping fruit in, it’s just the crappy sugary foods and treats I need to cut out.
I’m going through a horribly anxious time at the moment with my ex - he is being difficult and causing me financial problems so my head is not in a good place right now. However I have got for two weeks off work so now might be a good time to do it if I am going to feel like rubbish for a week or so.
Maybe I should just go cold turkey with processed food and treats? How have other people managed to do it and how long was it before you stopped craving it?
I used to have such a healthy diet but life got hard and I let my emotional eating take over.

for as long as i remember i felt wrong in my body, especially after puberty. i just didn’t understand why. im afab for context and would bind early on without understanding why. im starting to realize it was likely dysphoria, but i’ve been living my life on autopilot terrified of being anything other than what i perceive others want me to be so i’ve always presented as a girl, out of an urge to people please i guess. it’s really frustrating and labels just make it even more confusing and im so so afraid of upsetting people in the trans community or being invalided because of how contradictory my “identity” can be at times that i’ve never openly talked about it or been able to put a label on myself. im like an empty shell that could be filled with anything. because im nothing i feel like can be everything. i just can’t get past how scary it is angering or offending people with my existence that even i don’t understand myself. it somehow feels easier to just have someone else decide but i still feel envious of others who can put a label and are more secure in their gender identity.

I'm a 30 year old woman who was raised Catholic by a devout mother and a convert father. I was in Catholic school for most of my education, went to Catholic events weekly filled with Catholic people, and considered myself a practicing Catholic well into my 20's.
When I was 25, I started to really look at why I practiced Catholicism, and after some intensive therapy, I realized that I didn't believe in anything the Catholic Church taught. I believed in rules.
At 29, I was diagnosed with autism. This forced me to view my life through a completely different lens. Things started making sense to me-- why I drove the exact speed limit on the highway when everyone else zoomed past me, why it pissed me off when people took their dog onto the soccer field even when there was a sign posted that said, "No dogs on the soccer field." Why I never felt a connection with Christ or the Church but I went to confession when I had pre-marital sex.
The adults in my life always stressed the importance of the Church's rules. I was educated in school about the dangers of being a "cafeteria Catholic--" going into the cafeteria of the Church and choosing the teachings I wanted to believe in and leaving behind the ones I didn't like. My parents were incredibly clear with me that skipping Mass, refusing confession, and disobeying them were mortal sins. My peers and mentors shared testimonies about how their lives spiraled downward when they broke the rules of the Church. I took all of this information and put it into my mental rulebook, the exact guide on how to live Catholicism the "right" way.
It all started falling apart for me when I saw people in my life breaking these rules but still calling themselves Catholic. My friends moved in with their partners and had sex with them, but still went to Mass and took communion. My sister is getting married in the Catholic Church but does not plan to raise her children in the faith. I wanted to take these people by the shoulders and shout at them, "This isn't the way! You aren't doing things the way they're supposed to be done!"
Turns out, just like the speed limit and the dog on the soccer field, the Church's rules aren't expected to be followed either. So what did I have then? Nothing, I realized. I'd spent my entire life fussing over these rules that had been laid out for me, and in reality, people didn't even follow them. They still did whatever they wanted while calling themselves Catholic. So I had nothing-- no faith, no belief, not even rules.
It's actually kind of a relief.

I (26f) have been stuck in a state of Limerence for nearly 2 years with my (28m) coworker.
For context, I have been in a long term relationship for 10 years, married for 2, and a have a one year old baby. My husband is also 28M.
I have never experienced limerence before. I have always been happy with my SO, until after we had a baby. Shit kind of just hit the fan. We bought a home together, I was going through postpartum, and my husband was exhausted from work and the baby. We became very distant and didn’t even sleep in the same room anymore. (This is one year after I met my coworker).
I met my coworker 2 years ago. It hit me like a ton of bricks. I thought he was so perfect. I loved his personality and felt extremely physically attracted to him. I avoided him for about a year until another coworker, who I am really good friends with, befriended him and we all started hanging out outside of work. This is obviously right around the time my husband and I were the most distant. I was honestly using going out to cope.
Well one night we had been drinking with coworkers, and him and I ended up alone. Only because we live right next to each other and walked from downtown back to where he lives, which is near where I live. His house was just on the way.
We talked for hours outside of his apartment (we never went in). During this time, he admitted to me that he thought I was very attractive. Due to me being drunk, I stupidly spilled all the beans. He was probably creeped out lol. I basically told him that I had been insanely attracted to him since I met him and that I still am. He kept agreeing that he felt the same. Because I have never experienced limerence before and had no idea that is what I was going through…. I stupidly told him that I had felt a strong connection to him, since meeting him. I said that I felt extremely drawn to him and that I was taken by surprise because I love my husband and have never found interest in anyone else, since getting together 10 years ago. He was just smiling and laughing the whole time and telling me that he’s really attracted to me. At one point, he flat out admitted that he wanted to sleep with me. I told him that I wasn’t interested in cheating on my husband. He agreed that it wouldn’t be right. Also I would like to mention that this was really just a super small part of our convo. The rest of the time we were talking about normal things like what kind of music we like, food, movies etc. He was respectful, he never tried touching me in any way. I would like to add that I would have never said any of those things had I not been drinking.
When we were going our separate ways, he said he really liked me as a person and just wanted to be friends. He made it very clear that he wouldn’t try to put any moves on me, but that he just wanted to hangout platonically. He asked me to hangout the next day. I told him I couldn’t because I would be spending time with my husband and child.
Now, I did end up seeing him about a week later and I have seen him several times since. We both act like nothing ever happened that night. We never spoke of it again. We have hung out completely platonically since then, with other coworkers. Him and I also do not text or talk outside of these gatherings.
I would like to add, my other coworker saw him a few days after this night (she knows all about how I feel), and she casually mentioned to him that it seemed like I liked him and had a good time with him that night. He agreed that he had a good time with me, but told her that it wouldn’t be fair for anyone involved, for him to get involved with me. This is very respectable, as he is respecting my marriage and family. Regardless, somehow this made me feel SO rejected. (I know this is ridiculous considering he’s actually being a good person and I do want to respect my marriage).
I’m honestly losing my mind over this now. I can’t stop thinking about him and what we could be. How would things be if I met him single? He consumes my thoughts every second of every day. I feel depressed over it and guilty that I’m thinking of someone else, while with my husband. I don’t want to leave/cheat on my husband. We share a strong connection and truly love each other. We have put a ton of work into our marriage recently. We’re back to sleeping in the same bed. We’ve been getting along great and have been very affectionate towards each other.
This is SO silly to me. I feel like I’m in love with my coworker but I know that I’m not. I really truly love my husband. This feels like a stupid middle school crush.
I feel like I’m going through heartbreak. This has now affected my every day life and marriage because I’m constantly thinking of him and getting depressed. Some days, I can’t concentrate at work at all. I should add, he does not work with me anymore. He hasn’t in months.
Him and I are very low contact. I only see him maybe once every month or every other month. No contact in between. This is only at mutual gatherings and truthfully, when we do see each other, we barely speak.
Current issue being, I keep thinking about how he will eventually end up with someone else and will be a distant memory. This hurts. Also, I somehow feel like my existence is nothing without him. I don’t really know how to word this properly.
I would love to hear other peoples personal stories, suggestions, advice!

I (20f) have a sister (25f) that’s getting married in about two weeks to her fiance (28m). Some relevant background on my sister and I: we’re both adopted by a single woman coming from two different countries. Our mother passed when we were 9 and 13 of breast cancer and due to some complications we were placed with our dog sitters (we met them 2 times before this) as our guardians. They were extremely mentally and emotionally abusive to us, going as far as having us raise their baby for them. The man was our first real relationship we had with the opposite sex of us, and he was the most abusive one. Borderline sexual abuse. I got help while my sister refused to.
Anyways, my sister met this man let’s call him A, about 4-5 years ago on a dating app. I never liked him from the second I met him but we both chalked it down to our past history with men. Everything was going fine-ish in their relationship until a big argument they had which resulted in him throwing her high heels at her face and breaking them. After that I really despised him but she refused to break up with him. Fast forward to now and she just was telling me about how he made her sleep on the floor so that him and the baby could sleep in bed. The baby was crying and only stops when she’s in the bed with them. His reasoning was he had work and the baby was keeping him awake.
She texted me this as it happened and I told her I didn’t appreciate or like that he was doing this. Later we called and this is where I might be the AH but I said if she wanted to ruin her life by marrying him then it was none of my business. She is threatening to remove me as MoH and is upset I said this 2 weeks before the wedding. (I’ve been telling her I hate his guts for years now) AITAH?

So.. it’s gonna be long I think. I’ll try to make it as short as possible.
So I (26F) had (have?) a relationship with my bf (21M) for 8 months now. We’re kinda “long distance “, we live 2hs from each others. Well I told him many times I wanted to settle to do stuff and just to be close to him. I was a full time student so in a few occasions I’ve been at his and his parents house for weeks. Oh God I loved it there. You could really breathe that “I have not a single problem in the world” atmosphere, they’re kinda well off so everything was ok.
A year ago (before meeting me) he decided he wanted to be a taxi driver. Idk how it works wherever you are from but here in Italy (where I live) the license can cost up to 300k, and he had to get a loan from the bank for around that amount.
He didn’t get it on his name, but on his father’s. Well there has been lots of stress for him and his family, for all the things that happen when you as for a loan. We eventually broke up for he said he was “too young” and that he didn’t “feel the same as before”. I accepted it and went totally no contact. 1 week/10 days later he came back begging. He couldn’t sleep, he couldn’t eat. We met up to talk (I was nice but not like I used to be before ofc, I was hurt) and decided to try again. We meet up once a week usually and today we met. We talked a bit and finally he told me that HIS MOM (who always said adored me) told him to call it quits for all the responsibilities that he has and for HES TOO YOUNG TO BE IN A LONG TERM RELATIONSHIP. I can’t. I swear I can’t. I was planning on moving closer to him before the breakup, now ofc I don’t even think about it. Can you believe it? I told him he better talk to her. He’s been quite spoiled all his life that’s why I can’t believe she prefers him to be miserable instead of accepting that he’s in love and that she might “lose him” for some other woman or that he won’t fulfill his responsibilities and pay off the debt. I feel awful. Sorry for the rant, I’m seeing my therapist next week lol.
Yall might be saying “why don’t you just find someone else”.. I am in love with this boy. I can’t lose him.

Below is context (read: a not so covert attempt to seek validation and reassurance which is the true aim of this post ). I am aware it’s a wall of text. Trigger warning to anyone who might decide to read it- I refer to a lot of problem behaviours I have engaged in as well as things I have experienced. If you do read and comment, I can handle honesty even if it’s ‘harsh.’ Thank you.
———
I’m not sure if I belong here. I’ve been told more than once that I have complex trauma but my ‘trauma’ seems to largely amount to living life with unchecked attitude/ behaviour problems such as the belief that I had it so hard done by when really I completely lacked perspective and grew up with a major entitlement schema. That and poor parenting and I know emotional neglect is often counted as trauma/ abuse but can I count mine as such? It feels wrong the more obvious incidences of abusive behaviour towards me genuinely don’t bother me. They weren’t the problem. I don’t experience trauma symptoms in relation to them but I wish I did because I am also looking for an excuse to feel less bad about myself. I am virtually incapable of taking accountability.
There are examples of behaviours that might count as abusive/ neglectful (?) and others I don’t know how to categorise but either way I blew them out of proportion at the time because I thought how I was treated was so unfair (entitlement schema). And yet I can’t let go of them due to the desire to not feel bad about myself and instead cast myself as a victim.
Some examples of my behaviours, responses to those, and the main incidents;
I would bully my younger brothers and get called a selfish cow.
Lied all the time and was called a liar but I don’t remember anything actually happening beyond that.
I would steal money and food and toys and use things that weren’t mine and was no disciplined effectively and just told I was a selfish cow or some iteration.
I would refuse to get out of bed and/ or participate in family activities and would be labelled negatively (but afterward was left to it so essentially got my own way to my detriment)
Sometimes I was spoiled (especially at Christmas and birthdays) but it could be inconsistent and so when I didn’t get what I wanted I would sulk/ tantrum/ feel hard done by and I got told off in some manner but never actually learned anything helpful
I would throw tantrums and either get told I was spoiled and acting hard done by or I might get chased upstairs and I would slam the door and pin myself against it while my mum battered on it.
I played sick a lot to skip school and this was never addressed. Maybe they genuinely didn’t realise/ see past the lie but is that not neglectful?
I would throw a tantrum as a teen because I didn’t want to spend time with my family and wanted to go out with friends or do whatever it was I wanted to do/ have what I wanted to have and my dad used physical restraint on a couple of occasions and pinned me to the floor until I went still.
I asked for seconds of dessert once and then was given the whole pot that was left and when I couldn’t finish it my dad grabbed me by the back of my hair and thrust my face into it.
My dad chased me in anger after I told him to stop yelling at my mum (I didn’t care about my mum and just imagined myself the hero) and I didn’t get far and he smashed my face twice of the stairs.
I would refuse to clean my room and on two occasions my mum got so angry and frustrated she lost her temper and swept everything onto the floor (and on one of those occasions she broke something so I went to get my dad knowing he would tell her off- an example of how manipulative I could be).
I would shower for two hours or so and swear and tell when told to get out and then my parents would turn the water off and I would escalate and my dad would be shouting ‘drag her out by the hair if you have to’ so I thought he was an asshole and I was hard done by.
I slapped my mum and she slapped me and when my dad came home he pinned me against the wall and threatened me for slapping his wife which I thought was funny because I didn’t believe he cared about her.
I had other formative experiences such as some shyness and light bullying/ exclusion in my early teens but I could also be immature and domineering. I was naturally bright and so didn’t need to apply myself and when I did I didn’t. I’m a chronic procrastinator (because I never learned to tolerate frustration/ delay gratification.
So I guess, did anyone here genuinely exhibit serious behavioural issues and abusive behaviours towards your siblings and parents and how do you reconcile that? It seems for so many people with trauma you/ they believe they are bad despite a total lack of evidence meanwhile all of my behaviours carried on into adulthood and I was abusive in my first relationship.
For what it’s worth, I mostly internalise now and don’t bully my partner (historically they have exhibited anger towards me) and I mostly just lay in bed eating and scrolling my phone. I am in therapy. Somehow I have not been diagnosed with a personality disorder though mixed PD traits have been identified. I have historically over identified with various mental health diagnoses and engaged in a lot of malingering. I crave attention and validation and reassurance and habitually try to escape my own guilt. This post is more of that as previously stated.

I love The Lawnmower Man, specifically the SNES version. For the life of me, I can't understand why this game isn't considered a masterpiece. I suspect it's a case of prejudiced perception poisoning, where preconceived notions taint the experience before it even begins.
Don’t get me wrong, the film is about as appealing as asphalt-flavored baby formula, but the SNES game deserves far more credit than it gets. Perhaps people expect a different kind of game. If you’re familiar with titles like Super Star Wars, Turrican, or Contra, you might be disappointed when you encounter gameplay more reminiscent of Ghouls 'n Ghosts or R-Type.
At the very least, The Lawnmower Man gives the middle finger to playing it safe. It defies easy categorization, but you could describe it as a "Souls-like side-scrolling pixel extravaganza with environmental puzzles and a techno vibe."
The high stakes and unforgiving nature of the game create a sense of tension and immersion that's hard to replicate in more lenient titles. It’s a game where you play, die, learn from your mistakes, and gradually improve. You develop a rhythm of dodging bullets and flamethrowers, each time getting a bit farther.
Learning from your mistakes feels consequential, every enemy encounter is dangerous, and every moment is intense. I absolutely love it.
I'm just going to go ahead and put a couple more rupees in the unpopular opinion jar and say that The Lawnmower Man for the SNES ranks right up there with R-Type III and offers a better gaming experience than Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts.

I’m currently undergoing a course of accelerated HepB vaccination (0,1,2 months) following a possible exposure.
The doctor told me these post exposure vaccinations have good outcomes
I’m curious to know the mechanisms behind how it works? Is it just that the vaccination works quicker than the virus? Any knowledge appreciated
and of course - dumb it down if that’s easier a to fit into a Reddit post
Thanks

After his stint in Ring of Honor, John Cena embarked on a journey through the independent wrestling scene, venturing into uncharted territory and blazing his own trail. Freed from the constraints of corporate wrestling, Cena found himself in a world where the competition was fierce and the opportunities endless.
Embracing the spirit of the independents, Cena competed in promotions big and small, from established organizations to local shows in front of intimate crowds. Everywhere he went, Cena brought with him a level of star power that few could match, drawing fans from far and wide to witness his matches.
Throughout the first half of 2010, Cena's presence on the indie circuit sparked a wave of speculation and excitement among wrestling enthusiasts. Rumors swirled about potential matchups and dream scenarios, with fans eagerly anticipating Cena's next move and which promotion he would grace with his talent next.
As Cena traveled from town to town, he encountered a diverse array of opponents, each presenting a unique challenge and opportunity for Cena to showcase his skills. From up-and-coming prospects looking to make a name for themselves to grizzled veterans seeking one last shot at glory, Cena faced them all with the same intensity and determination that had made him a household name in professional wrestling.
While some questioned Cena's decision to step away from the spotlight of mainstream wrestling, he viewed his time on the indies as a chance to reconnect with his roots and rediscover his passion for the sport. Far from the glitz and glamour of televised events, Cena found fulfillment in the raw energy and authenticity of the independent scene, relishing the freedom to express himself without limitations.
As the months passed, Cena's journey through the indies became the stuff of legend, cementing his status as a true wrestling icon. Whether he was headlining sold-out shows or trading blows in gritty gymnasiums, Cena left an indelible mark on the independent wrestling landscape, proving that his talent transcended the confines of any single promotion.
And as the wrestling world awaited his next move, Cena continued to chart his own course, confident in his ability to thrive wherever the road may take him. With each match, he reaffirmed his status as one of the greatest performers of his generation, leaving a lasting legacy that would be remembered for years to come.
The main event of Monday Night Raw was well underway, with the crowd on the edge of their seats as two of WWE's top superstars battled it out in the ring. Suddenly, the arena erupted with the familiar sounds of John Cena's entrance music, catching everyone off guard. As the camera panned to the entrance ramp, Cena emerged with an entourage of formidable-looking individuals by his side. Wade Barrett, Justin Gabriel, David Otunga, and Heath Slater walked with purpose behind Cena, their expressions stern and determined.
The match came to a screeching halt as Cena and his group stormed the ring, unleashing a brutal assault on both competitors. Chairs flew, bodies crashed, and chaos ensued as Cena and his allies left a trail of destruction in their wake. The crowd watched in stunned silence as Cena stood tall in the center of the ring, his gaze fixed on the carnage around him. With a microphone in hand, Cena addressed the audience with a steely determination in his voice.
"For eight long years, I've watched from the sidelines as WWE has become a shadow of its former self," Cena began, his words echoing throughout the arena. "But no more. Tonight, I return to reclaim what is rightfully mine. And I'm not alone."
Cena motioned to his companions, who stood behind him with a fierce intensity. "These men are not just my allies," Cena declared. "They are the future of WWE. Together, we are the Nexus." The crowd erupted into a mixture of shock and awe as Cena introduced his new group, their presence sending shockwaves throughout the WWE Universe. With a menacing grin, Cena promised to reshape the landscape of WWE and rule the company with an iron fist. As Raw went off the air, the arena lay in ruins, a testament to the power and determination of John Cena and the Nexus. The landscape of WWE had been forever changed, and the world watched with bated breath to see what would happen next.
In the second half of 2010, the Nexus, led by John Cena, continued to dominate WWE with their ruthless tactics and unwavering unity. With Wade Barrett as their de facto leader, the group left a trail of destruction in their wake, targeting anyone who dared to stand in their way. The Nexus' reign of terror extended to the tag team division, where Cena and David Otunga formed a formidable duo. With their combined strength and cunning tactics, they captured the WWE Tag Team Championships, solidifying their dominance over the division.
Meanwhile, Wade Barrett set his sights on a huge power move: hoarding as many opportunities for the group as possible. With the help of his Nexus cohorts, Barrett secured a spot in the Money in the Bank ladder match. As the other competitors fought tooth and nail for the coveted briefcase, the Nexus intervened, ensuring Barrett emerged victorious and claimed the contract. Now with a golden ticket to their advantage, they basically have rights to the next world title reign, whichever they choose at any time.
As the weeks passed, tensions within WWE reached a boiling point as the Nexus' power continued to grow. Their reign of terror culminated in a showdown with then-WWE Champion Sheamus. In a highly anticipated match, Cena faced off against Sheamus for the WWE Championship, with the entire Nexus at ringside to provide backup. Despite Sheamus' best efforts, he was no match for the combined might of Cena and the Nexus. In a shocking turn of events, Cena emerged victorious, capturing the WWE Championship and solidifying the Nexus' stranglehold over WWE.
With Cena as WWE Champion, Otunga and Cena as tag team champions, and Barrett holding the Money in the Bank briefcase, the Nexus stood at the pinnacle of WWE, their dominance unchallenged and their influence unparalleled. As they celebrated their triumph, the rest of WWE watched in fear and uncertainty, knowing that the Nexus had cemented their status as the most dominant force in sports entertainment. As tensions simmered within the Nexus, cracks began to form in the once-unified group. John Cena and David Otunga found themselves at odds with Wade Barrett, the second in command of the faction hoping to level up and become de facto leader, as his hunger for power and desire to assert his dominance became increasingly apparent.
The rift between Cena, Otunga, and Barrett reached a breaking point after they lost the tag team championships. Barrett, frustrated by the defeat, blamed Cena and Otunga for their shortcomings and demanded more control over the group. However, Cena and Otunga refused to relinquish their authority, leading to heated arguments and confrontations within the Nexus. Barrett's ambitions didn't end with asserting control over the group; he also began eyeing Cena's WWE Championship. Growing impatient with waiting for the right moment to cash in his Money in the Bank briefcase on the World Heavyweight Champion, Barrett contemplated skipping the line and challenging Cena for the title instead.
The power struggle within the Nexus intensified as Cena, Otunga, and Barrett clashed over their differing agendas. With tensions reaching a boiling point, the once-unified faction found themselves on the brink of implosion, their unity shattered by internal strife and conflicting ambitions. As the cracks in the Nexus widened, the future of the faction hung in the balance, leaving WWE in a state of uncertainty and chaos.
At TLC 2010, the tensions within the Nexus finally reached a tipping point as Wade Barrett seized the opportunity to assert his dominance. After a grueling match, Barrett cashed in his Money in the Bank contract on John Cena, who had just successfully defended his WWE Championship. With the element of surprise on his side, Barrett ruthlessly attacked Cena, seizing the moment to become the new WWE Champion.
With the WWE Championship now in his possession, Barrett solidified his control over the Nexus, demonstrating his willingness to do whatever it took to achieve his ambitions. In a shocking turn of events, Barrett expelled both John Cena and David Otunga from the group, effectively seizing full command and reshaping the Nexus in his image.
The WWE Universe watched in disbelief as Barrett's calculated power play unfolded, leaving Cena and Otunga on the sidelines while the newly-crowned champion assumed control of the faction. With Barrett at the helm, the Nexus embarked on a new era of dominance, with their sights set on wreaking havoc and asserting their authority over WWE.

First i’m sorry if this is not allowed. I recently posted something on here and somebody told me it sounded like a level 1 issue and it has made me feel very concerned but i do understand where the person was coming from im not trying to be mean.
Where i live they don’t give levels but the report basically says i am level 1 social and level 2 RBRs. However i got diagnosed at 9 and many things in my life have changed since then. But i am still a minor so i know things can change again.
my autistic traits: - In public i am okay at communicating but it is extremely painful/hard and some days it takes a lot of force to get sentences out. At home i dont speak much except for when it’s about special interests. I mainly communicate through pointing at things. - I can travel on transport as my parents don’t own a car but i have to be wearing noise cancelling headphones and if the bus is busy i start to shutdown. - I am good at maintaining my friendships. 90% of my friends met me when i was 4 so they understand me very well. They let me wonder off in public/ have time on my own if i need it. But seeing them is exhausting and need many days to recover. - When i was a child (until i was 12) my meltdowns lasted hours, were almost daily and very violent. Now i tend to have shutdowns daily due to change of routine or overstimulation. I have meltdowns maybe once a week but they are mainly just crying and feeling like i want to get out of my skin. - My hygiene is bad. I have showers once a week and only brush my teeth once a day. I only remember to keep up with it as my schedule has stayed the same for years. I struggle with the sensation of water. - I lived without support for a bit and it was terrible. I forgot how to take care of myself. I didn’t remeber to eat and i stopped going to school. Or basically functioning at all. - However i don’t think people automatically know i am autistic. I think i am okay at masking i mainly just try not to speak or just ask questions to carry conversation such as what food do you like.
Overall i really dont know where i sit on the spectrum. I feel my needs are more complicated than some level 1s but also sometimes i don’t think i fit into the level 2 category.

I am walking a 100km ultra marathon on what will likely be an very hot day (>30°c). I am 160kg, 6ft2 and sweat like it.
My Garmin watch estimates that I am sweating ~4.5L on a recent 40km training walk and I think it's in the right ballpark. I drank about an equal amount and urinated relatively less than my teammates (as in I am losing it largely through sweating).
So I will be drinking probably about 10L over the course of the race and I am aware that I need to be balancing my electrolyte in take as well as my water intake so I don't dilute my salt levels.
What is the correct amount of electrolytes to be taking per litre of water, or should I be calculating it by body mass?
Any advice is greatly appreciated. Based on our current pace the walk will be completed in 28hrs - 32hrs so I'll be taking in a significant amount of water over that period of time to stay hydrated.
If it helps the electrolyte tablets I have bought contain:

• 345mg Sodium
  
• 65mg Potassium
  
• 8mg Magnesium
  
• 102mg Calcium
  
• 0.9mg B Vitamins
  

per tablet

Hi! I was hoping to get some input on something that’s been starting to become more bothersome in my life. To preface, I have been diagnosed with adhd, mdd, and anxiety for which I take medications for (lexapro, wellbutrin, adderall). They’ve worked great for me since I started taking meds about 7-8 years ago (I’m almost 21). However, for the past couple years Ive noticed I get irritated very easily and it’s developed into sort of violent outbursts over small inconveniences. I find myself punching/ slamming my fist down on hard surfaces or walls and I keep throwing things and breaking them or smashing stuff that’s next to me such as makeup. And this will be caused by simple problems like not being able to get a nose piercing in because my nails are too long, tossing something onto my bed or the counter and it falls off, the belt hoop of my pants getting stuck on a door handle, etc. It’s getting to a point where everything anyone says to me is starting to just irritate me beyond reason and I don’t know how to calm myself down or relax when i get overwhelmed so that I don’t feel the need to hit or throw something. I don’t know if this is from my medications, mental disorders, or something else honestly, so I wanted to see if anyone had any thoughts that could help me maybe. I really appreciate it thank you :)

You know what? I am itching for an RP and I want to expand my horizons, so hit me with your idea(s). Below you will find requirements and a few expectations.
Willing to give almost everything a shot BUT modern slice of life, that I cannot do. If you want modern times, then please with some kind of supernatural or low fantasy of other type. If you want slice of life then please with an idea set BEFORE the 1900s. No matter if victorian time, medieval, ancient egypt... etc just please nothing modern, you catch my thrift.
Also, I cannot do slow-burn (unless we are doubling), sorry not sorry, it just bores me too quickly. Medium-paced romance is my favorite.
Really want to play F currently but I am not picky if we pair her up with M, F or NB! Also more than willing to double up if you would like that. There I can ofc also play M for you or whatever else you desire. I just want romance to be included as I love a good OC x OC and a happy end is a must. Otherwise, hit me with your ideas.
Requirements:

• Be at least 18+, but somewhere between 25-35 would be preferable
• LGBTQIA+ friendly, and comfortable with characters not fitting into the social beauty standard
• Writing in 3rd person and past tense
• Writing at least 300 words per message. More is always welcome, less not so much
• Active; at least one RP response should be delivered 1-2 days
• Write on Discord!

So me and my boyfriend have been together nearly 2 years. We had a baby 14 weeks ago. Our baby has suffered from severe reflux since birth, she is a very unsettled baby and cries a lot. During my partners paternity leave he was very supportive, helping me with my recovery, being an amazing dad etc. however when our baby was around 7 weeks, we kept arguing, I was very snappy which isn’t like me and he told me everything he resented about me including the fact that I got pregnant and if he knew I was ‘pro life’ we would never have been together. (I got told by doctors that I wasn’t ovulating, my hormone levels were abnormal And getting pregnant wasn’t a possibility, clearly my body sorted itself out and I fell pregnant. Even though it wasn’t part of our plan I decided I wanted to keep the baby as I mentally couldn’t go through with an abortion, I gave him time to think, didn’t put any pressure on and two days later he said yeah I wanna do this together.
Anyway today my boyfriend was working in the office, I’ve had a hellish day with our daughter, literally from the time she woke up she was been crying, screaming, unsettled, not sleeping and it has literally got me to breaking point together. I told my boyfriend how much I was struggling, he knew I wished he was home, told him I was in tears, felt like a failure mom and wanted a cuddle. 4:30pm came and he didn’t messaged to say he left work, so 10 minutes later I messaged to see what was going on.. he messaged back to say he was packing up his stuff and would be on his way. Then 5:15pm comes and he comes home, doesn’t say anything about being 30 minutes late. We needed to collect our shopping at 5:30pm so we got in the car, I had tears in my eyes at this point. I said ‘why were you late?’ He said ‘I got stuck at work in phone call’ I said ‘with who?’ He said ‘insert collegues name’ and I said ‘oh and you didn’t think it would be worth telling me you were running late?’ He said ‘no’ so I said ‘so tomorrow when you log onto teams at home I will see that call?’ And he said ‘No I was actually catching up with Chloe after work’ and I said ‘so you lied to me? And he said ‘I did’.
I’ve had no apology, nothing. I’ve been in tears since 6pm, my head hurts. He blamed me saying ‘you wouldn’t have been happy so that’s why I didn’t tell you’ and ‘I’m not rushing back for you on a Tuesday or Thursday’ I never ever have asked him too, today I have really struggled mentally and his lies and the fact he thought catching up with a girl from work was more important than coming home to help your girlfriend hurts my heart.

Ben(22M) is in my friend group and we used to be friends with benefits before we mutually ended it and I met my current boyfriend Greg(23M).
Greg and I are exclusively in a long distance relationship; he used to live in the same country as me and was moving back. Before we were dating I told him about Ben out of respect because I don’t want to hide things from him, he’s been cheated on so he has trust issues but he understood and said, “Just tell me if you’re ever going to chill at his house.” And so I do.
Ben and I are still in the same friend group, it’s not weird and we had talked about how we’re still friends, that was in the past (it’s been a year and a half at this point), it was fun blah blah and more boundaries were set because Ben got back with his girlfriend and I was happy for him because he’s my friend. The friend group all chill at his house because the majority is there (his brothers, his best friend, his brothers girlfriend, her friend etc) and his house has a separate wing so we don’t disturb his family.
Greg then set boundaries: 1. “I don’t like you going to celebrate his birthday.” I AGREE Context: Ben invited people to celebrate his birthday. I tell Greg on the morning of the day of party (just after I got the invite) and Greg has an issue because “Why would you go to your ex’s birthday?” I tell him again Ben is not my ex-anything and it’s not an intimate thing it’s basically a huge house party and people are just coming to drink, he’s okay with it so I go. The next day he said he wasn’t okay with it and told his sister; she’s agrees with him.

1. “Don’t go to Bens house anymore, ask everyone to change the location or you host it.” I RELUCTANTLY AGREE Context: Ben had a game night, I tell Greg and he says, “Text or call me and just keep in contact when you’re there.” He knows I’m barely on my phone when I’m with friends but of course I agree. I text him, he doesn’t read them. I call him, he doesn’t pick up. The next day Greg tells me I didn’t bother to text or call, I forgot about him and that I feel he’s not important to me. I told him I did, he tells me his battery died.
   
2. “Stop replying.” I AGREE Context: Greg has my instagram login and sees Ben sends me reels, he find memes we used to send to each other when we were friends with benefits and I tell him that was before I knew you. He asks me to stop replying to the reels Ben sends and to stop sending him reels.
   
3. “I don’t want you to be friends with Ben.” I TELL HIM I ALREADY RESPECTED ALL THE BOUNDARIES YOU GAVE ME BUT HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO DO THAT WHEN WERE IN THE SAME FRIEND GROUP Context: This is after Greg has moved back and I invited him to our New Year’s Eve plan with my friend group where Ben’s girlfriend was also invited.
   

Context for ultimatum: I went to drop another friend from the friend group at Ben’s house after a child’s birthday party. When I get there a few of my friends parents are there too so I go into the house to say hi and not be rude. Ben’s mum and another friend’s mum make conversation with me and tell me to stay for a bit. I stay and play with the kitten while the friend group watches the champions league final. I get home at 11:15pm and call Greg, he’s at a bar watching the match with work friends (I knew about this). I tell Greg I dropped a friend at Ben’s and was there for a bit to show face. I get a text at 10am the next day; “You were at Ben’s house?” Greg deletes that message and doesn’t talk to me until Monday morning. I’m busy at work I can’t answer. He says he got home late and slept the whole of Sunday, I say; “You had time to send and delete a message about a boy but you couldn’t say you would be sleeping?” It escalates and I tell him he always brings up Ben even though I’ve listening to him and respected all his boundaries, it’s like we’re taking a step back instead of forward.
The ultimatum “Me or Ben.” I tell him that’s not fair because I can’t control the fact that I could end up at Ben’s like to drop off a friend and that this ultimatum is disregarding all the effort I made to respect your boundaries and that hurts. All my effort, love and respect was for you to deem it useless and give me an ultimatum. I’m barely considered a friend to Ben anymore, I can’t go to his house if we have games nights so I might as well not have a social life or friends. Greg gets mad I basically told him I don’t have a social life and won’t if I completely cut off Ben because we’re in the same friend group and if I complain about not having friends it’s because that’s the consequence of giving me this ultimatum and not because I want to make him feel bad.
After being mad and saying I don’t text or call him and that I don’t love him, Greg says he’s a useless boyfriend because he made me feel this way and that I should leave him and my reaction was a build up to me dumping him. I told him to stop guilt tripping me and see that the ultimatum is hurting me and made me feel threatened because it’s this now but what will it be later? Because clearly respecting his boundaries was not enough from me. He then says he failed as a boyfriend again because me made me feel like I’m not enough. I’ve been telling him it’s the ultimatum that’s doing this and it’s not necessary because I have respected all his boundaries and compromised so much for him. But he guilt trips or tells me I’m defending Ben, it’s been me saying the same thing to him for 2 days.
I love Greg so much and I want to spend the rest of my life with him, he knows that. But am I dealing with the situation correctly? I’m defending myself and I want him to understand that an ultimatum isn’t what we need but am I gaslighting him? My mind is so clouded that I feel like I’m in the wrong now.

I'm looking to get info for any easy and cheap MBA or master's programs. I literally need a piece of paper that says I have one. It does not need to be accredited or even in the USA.
For my A.A.S- I went to a state school it was 20k
for my B.S. I went to a DEAC-accredited university online - Ashworth College I finished my bachelor's for 5k.
for my masters I was attending WGU and then dropped then I started at Nexford University- this was very similar to Ashworth and I did enjoy it and the work load was ok but some classes were very difficult but honestly I'm burnt out and I just want to try and find something easier. I've been in school for 24 years of my life and I'm 29. I'd like to start enjoying my life sooner.
any info or advice from people in similar situations would be appreciated
