My better half and I used to be proud of the fact that we've never had an argument or raised our voices at each other in over 10 years of being together. Last night we realised that all thats done has been hiding the massive wedge thats been splitting us apart without us seeing it. gently caress man I feel you. I may have stuffed up my relationship beyond repair through a combination of broke brains, actual stupidity and the inability to express my feelings. I don’t think all of the blame can lie with me, but at least 50%. It sounds like you’ve had a good discussion with your significant other and cleared the air a bit, well done for that.

The car is literally a hodge-podge of parts from various US and Euro carmakers and their suppliers. It has the same touchscreen interface as the Buick Reatta right? I did not watch the debates. I heard some things about it though that are bugging me out right now though to be perfectly honest. Whatever - nothing new under the sun as they say...

I didn't watch the debate it would have just made me angry and depressed. Got enough of that to deal with as it is. It makes me happy hearing about you couples that are able to communicate and work things out. That's the way to do it and be have a fulfilling life. I wish my last relationship was that way but I couldn't bring things up without her shutting down with anxiety so I stopped doing it and it just snowballed into not being able to go on. I know I was a shithead about some things but if we can't discuss it then I can't fix what I don't know about. Bringing up issues I had with her were completely out of the question so I had to just deal on my own. At least we are still really good friends to this day though since it would hurt more if I lost that too.

He's totally setting up to question the election to those who have any excuse whatsoever to believe his bullshit. I hope he loses so badly, it's not a real question in the slightest, the college makes it a no brainer and the secret service throw him and his poo poo out the white house onto the street.

Mine was made based off of a mold, it almost clips onto my teeth and is super thin / doesn't really cover the front of my teeth at all. Zero issues getting used to it. Only problem is that since it's through my dentist, it wasn't cheap and it lasts only a year before I wear through it. TLDR: If you can't get used to it, it's the wrong type/kind.

Took 106 days since the idiot in the pulsar decided to park into the side of my landcruiser, but I got it back today. Went from this:  To this:   To this today:   I've never liked the gold- It was MEANT to be silver, but the painter buggered it up and I installed it at 10pm under fluro lights so I didnt notice it was gold until the next morning. Decided to go darker on the barwork this time- I didnt want black, because I drive government cars all the time and they are all white with black barwork and I wasnt keen on my own car looking like a work car. The colour is Toyota Graphite grey- same colour they put on the 200, 150 and 70 series trucks.

I'm starting to hate our new kitten/cat. She's a monster who spends her days terrorizing our oldest cat and has undone all the effort we spent in getting him to quit anxiety peeing outside the litter box. So now we have to put him back on anxiety meds and he does not take those easily.

I spend very little time on social media, maybe 5 minutes on Facebook every couple of days culled down to nothing but good friends, I don't even read the news any more other than what leaks through on the radio during my commute and it's still a never ending torrent of corrosive evil you can't get away from. I'm constantly worrying about everything and everyone and I just want it to loving stop for 5 minutes.

Experiencing 2020 has been inexorably slow, but looking back at 2020 it feels short because I have few personal landmarks to look at. It’s just day-in-day-out get-up, go downstairs, sit at computer until i can’t stand it, maybe do yard work, maybe bang on car I don’t drive anymore, go to sleep, repeat. Except for getting sick. I’ve been sick all year with an infection I can’t beat. They’re going to take my tonsils on the 9th. They say that’s the reason I was pissing blood earlier.

My friends daughter who I’m supporting through her escape from domestic violence went off the rails yesterday. Dark depression and self harm. I’ve finally managed to get her to agree that it’s time this poo poo stopped and we need to talk to a professional but she had a rough experience with a psych earlier in her life and isn’t exactly keen on seeing another one, but this is the only way shits not going to spiral downhill into a casket. My manager has been saying to me that I need to decide whether this job is for me or not. The big shake up in my relationship has made me realise it’s not. It’s bad for my physical health- it’s left me with a permanent injury in my shoulder, it’s affecting my mental health and it’s affecting my family health. So I’m going to be walking in and telling my manager that no, this job isn’t for me, they’re obviously not happy with my performance, I’m not happy with the role and what it’s turned into and what are we going to do about it. I’m terrified because I don’t have a fall back, but I can’t keep doing this or it’s going to kill me.

He couldn’t keep up with the malfeasant stream of Trumpian excrement and moderation was mostly useless at stopping it. So Biden just stammered, continually looked down, and laughed to himself. It was terrible all around.

That said, they told me yesterday that the tooth pain I have is directly caused by my bruxism so I'd better get used to it or try something different because I'm beating the hell out of my teeth at night. So I forced myself to use it last night. I was able to sleep, but I did wake up tons and needed to actually take a facecloth to bed to act as a droolcloth  But I did it... so hoping it gets easier from here as I get used to it.

Try alternating the nights you use it, one on, one off until you feel like you can use it every night that's what worked for me. I didn't have problems drooling, but it made me snore a lot at first and I would wake up with a dry-as-a-bone sore throat but that doesn't happen anymore. Your body gets accustomed to it and adjusts accordingly.

Also I have put off my search because I am afraid of the cost. cakesmith handyman posted:Not trolling but I honestly don't know how someone can turn to religion and think that a God exists and deserves your attention and that's the way to fix things or cope with them. If there are supernatural powers and they could make things better why haven't they? Are they cruel? Don't they care? Are they powerless? I would not call myself religious, I'm more of a sober 'God' guy. I pray and meditate everyday but I don't go to church or anything like that. I would go into detail but you would probably call me a schizo haha. I have my own beliefs but basically God is indifferent to our affairs, I pray for the courage to withstand the trials of life and not for things to get better. As for the mental health stuff, I went through something very similar back in January. My mind was racing, I had the paranoid oncoming traffic thing, I thought I had a bunch of chronic illnesses, and felt either incredibly depressed or incredibly anxious all the time. I got another psych and a therapist (after not having one for years) and the medication has helped a lot. The therapist I got was good but I stopped seeing her after 2 months because she wanted me to start paying some ridiculous co-pay. I think I'm probably going to go back to therapy though because I've had some family resentments come up and I can not seem to shake them. Anyways, I had been on SSRIs (Zoloft) for years but my psych switched me to Effexor. Since the medication switch almost all of the aforementioned problems have gone away. I would strongly recommend going to see a medical professional. It made my life so much more bearable lol.

Therapists on the other hand... I know my insurance plan very well and know that there should be no co-pay for therapy. Despite this pretty much every therapist that I've tried to book has tried to charge me between $45-55 per session out of pocket, claiming that they have already spoken with to my insurance company and that they're "in network". No other mental health professional has ever given me this problem. It only seems to be these independent therapy practices (granted my sample size is 2 but still). Personally, I think they just try to get you to pay the co-pay to get an extra buck. Moral of the story. Know your health plan in and out!
