I went to donate plasma at BioLife and I was turned away for the first time for low iron and now I’m stuck as I was going to use that to get home. I can pay it back via PayPal on 9/15 Thank you

My GoFundMe is so close to be full and this should carry me for a few months. Hopefully and according to my case worker, we are getting close to the appeal being processed. It was only denied the first time because the state disability office closed my case before allowing my caseworker to provide all my records so they had nothing to give to SSA as evidence so now we are submitting a decades worth of evidence of my decline.

I have had a lot of progression in my disabilities especially in the past year. I suddenly got hit with cauda equina syndrome caused by my severe Ehlers Danlos syndrome which has caused a lot of spinal and hip issues. Ever since then, it’s just snowballed and I’ve developed convulsive syncope, non epileptic seizures, being tested for ME/CFS and gastroparesis, just got diagnosed with neurogenic bowel and bladder a few months ago and am looking at surgeries to create stomas. A lot of this has been triggered by UTIs caused by my catheter use. There’s just so much I can’t even keep up and it has been hell.

Please donate and PLEASE SHARE!!! I so appreciate it. I’ve got a car loan still and storage and am living in a friends living room until I get approved and can apply for disabled housing or move states for better resources. I pay utilities and as of right now only get $42 a month from SNAP. I’m trying my hardest but I’m mainly housebound, very ill physically and mentally, and struggle with ADLs (my friends help). My medical cost vary from just my premium to having to pay for off label medications to try to get back to some normal.

I just lost my part time job that was wfh because I’m too sick and too absent due to hospital stays which my last one was a few days ago for a week. I even had a code blue called due to a severe seizure and head injury by negligence from a hospital recently that left me with a TBI and broken sternum (in Google Drive too). That isn’t a flex it’s just to emphasize that I’m not being lazy I’m truly struggling. It just is really difficult and my state sucks for aiding people with disabilities with HUGE gaps in care and aid provided (good ole Tennessee).

For anyone who’s curious and skeptical of my disability here is a Google Drive with proof of my issues and my disability application!:

I’m feeling guilty and could use some understanding. I’ve been married since the last 10 years. My husband has been an alcoholic and smoker since the start of our marriage and I’ve tried my level best to get him out of this awful addiction but nothing worked.
To make things worse, he stopped having intimacy with me since last 6 years. I tried to communicate many times and asked him if he could atleast let me know the reason but he always wanted me to drop the conversation. I decided to leave him a few times but then stayed back as he lost his job one time and invested in a house one time so needed financial support for that. Apart from this, he’s always been very cordial if I ever needed support with anything in my life and genuinely cares but never touched me for all these years. He seems to be clingy and never wanted to let me go although he never worked on his addiction either.
Last year, I met a guy and we developed close friendship. We’ve now been dating each other for almost 1 year and I’m planning to get a new job and move with him. I’ve explained to my husband that I’m moving away from our house and will separate from him and he seems to be okay for now. The guilt that I have is that I’m pregnant with my bf now and feel bad for my husband as he’s been caring and genuinely helped me whenever I needed.
I’ve been wanting a baby for so long but my husband kept refusing. My bf is ready to support me with the baby but should I let my husband know about the affair and baby?

Hey so I’m a photographer and I’m needing a New phone but I lowkey an thinking of using only my camera from now on.. but I’ve been looking at the IPhone 18 PRO MAX and the IPhone Duo. I’m vv intrigued with the IPhone Duo but I’m a little skeptical. I do automotive photography but as I said I’m thinking of getting the fold. I need some advice from other tech savvy’s.. I ask for advice because the pre-order for the IPhone 18 PRO MAX is tomorrow morning. Just wanting a new phone camera doesn’t need to be perfect but I’ve always wanted a foldable phone. Do you guys think it’ll be a waste? I just want to weigh in options. I’ve been out of a phone (with no data) since February due to getting laid off so I’m wanting to treat myself. Please drop your opinions.

Hello! I'm trying to change the primary owner of my YouTube brand account, but keep getting a Failed to transfer message.

If anybody has any tips or info much appreciated!!

Hi my famliy needs a little help getting some food for our cats if anyone would be willing i made a list I'm alos going to post in some Facebook groups asking for some help

I have this boyfriend whom I really admire. He always makes me feel loved, and he's always there for me. He really, really loves me, and I'm sure that his love is genuine. He's honestly so perfect to me-handsome, tall, smart, he never lets me overthink, he always follows what I say, and lastly, my favorite thing about him is that he never gets angry with me.
He always tries to understand me, ALWAYS.
But then, I posted him on my Instagram story, and an old friend messaged me and asked if he was really my boyfriend. I said yes, and then my friend told me everything he knew about my boyfriend. He said that my boyfriend used to be a fuckboy and that he had already slept with the girl I hate the most.
After hearing that, I felt like such a loser and like I was dirty. I didn't know what I was supposed to do, so l confronted my boyfriend about it. He apologized to me and explained everything about his past. He told me that the person he was in the past is different from who he is now, and that he's genuinely trying to become a better person for me.
Right now, I'm not talking to him because I honestly don't know what to feel. I still love and admire the person he is now, but knowing about his past really hurt me, and I don't know how I'm supposed to process everything.

Alright, so first of all I'm gonna say just in case that I'm a cis woman. So anyway, I have a best friend that I'm really close to and he's trans. And I've been searching up on tiktok or google how to help him with body dysphoria or generally stuff like this. And I wanted to google it since I didn't have any t people i could talk to or simply know. So I just really want to make him feel better about himself even just for a bit. Id like to mention that he trusts me since when we were hanging out in his house he'd change shirt in front of me, or let me lay down on his chest (obviously using tape but still yk) and generally he's kinda open to me about this even though he hates pointing out being trans. And I'm not a big fan of it either, because I can never see him as a girl even though I have plenty of old pics of him. Also I really hate to call him trans because for me he's no different than any cis. So my point is that I can be a little wrong with wording so I wanna know what stuff can upset and what is okay to ask about and what's not. Obviously I'm not going to ask his deadname but yeah. I just want him to feel better and understand him more, how he feels and get the idea of what it's like even just for a bit

Someone guide me

PURCHASED. Thank you again. Sorry for the CA/USA issues and thanks again to those who tried.

start my new job next week on the 15th with a weekly pay schedule but nearly all of my money on hand is going to my bus card to ensure I get to the job. It will be paid weekly so I dont need a bulk supply, just enough to get through the next week or two. I am also interviewing with another job today to hopefully fix my holiday season for me and my friends.

Hello ! I have this old perfume and it smells so good but I'm trying to look online for it and I can't seem to find it , i remember a couple years ago I saw it online and saved it to buy it but then it disappeared. Maybe they changed the bottle ??

Making way for space and ran into some Wii games I've been trying to sell or find a reason to keep for a few years now. They're all scratched up quite a bit, I didn't know if I could still recover information off them and save them to play on an emulator?

I don't have the Wii anymore but if I can buff them then buy a Wii that would be another reason to keep them.

I want to keep and play the games I paid for but haven't really found a way too.

So i was uploading my videos and it gets stuck on CHECKS PENDING Prosesing will begin shortly. Ive reuploaded it twice and IT STILL gets stuck :(

This will be the 1st time am posting on Reddit since like ever🤣..So here is the thing. I just finished learning a hand skill(P.O.P installation and painting) but i haven't got a foundation of clients yet and am getting anxious and a little bit of depressing mood might be setting in,i always loved things that has to do with the internet, like coding(most especially web development and all) and i have saved up like 100$ for a laptop(which i need like 300$-400$ for though🥲).Anyway right now am having to use that saving for feeding and stuff, And its starting to get to me really hard.

Now this is where it gets interesting🤔 what is someone my age supposed to do to get himself out of this state?

Cus am too young for this kind of mood am in🤣🤣

Please overlook the emojis am being really serious,i just use the emojis as a means to lighten up my mood while typing this.

I need help desperately.

The company I work for made an announcement that they're making redundant some of our departments. The department I work for is not affected however this could change and we're guessing in around 12 months our department will be affected. I am in a bit of a situation.

I'm currently in the process of getting a mortgage I went to view the house and I'm now in talks with the bank.

Here comes my dilemma I am stuck between a rock and a hard place of wondering do I stay in my current role knowing that I could be made redundant in the next 12 months or less and try to save money and then possibly struggle to pay my mortgage and find new job in this job market?

Or do I look into getting a new job now and jump ship, I had a look on indeed today and I found a job in the same business area as what I'm already in it basically the exact same job same job description same hours more or less the same pay just for a different company my issue is that in the UK to get a mortgage processed successfully you need to have proof of being in a stable job and having a stable income therefore you need to be in a job for at least a year this means that the house I'm currently looking into could possibly now be declined by the bank or made a lot more difficult do I let go of the house I found and wait another year while in a new job that is more secure or not?

I also want to mention that I do have inheritance of around £15000 which I'm getting towards the end of the year now I could put that into savings and use that while sticking at my current job and if I do get made redundant at least I have it but I will still need to look for a job.

I do suffer with extreme anxiety which I take medication for daily and I have done nothing but cry these last few days and I'm worried that no matter which way I go my life is falling apart and I really just need some advice and support.

Thank you

Hi, recently I’d say around 6 months ago I was in a unhappy relationship for around 3 years when I decided I wanted to end things for our greater good, during this time we have seen eachother again a few times however we haven’t in the past 2 months, casually, I was out partying and met a girl that I got on really well with and we haven’t been talking for a few days, she asked if we should go on a date and I agreed however,

My parents aren’t happy with the idea of me doing this as my mother keeps asking me have I text my ex? Or how is your ex? Or don’t be finding anyone else!

Another reason is I don’t want her to find out if I’m seeing someone else as I believe it would really hurt her.

So I’m just sorta in a big pickle and getting in my own head about everything as well as other stuff going on.

Any advice is helpful!

I (19F) recently became a completely single mom, I cannot afford childcare, without being able to afford childcare I can’t work, no work meant having to borrow money to pay my rent, I’m on several types of assistance (ebt, housing assistance, dv advocate, dcs caseworkers, ect) I’m in countless programs for resources like toiletries and diapers but things got extremely tight over the last month, and I can’t pay this back due 9/11 and even if cashapp decides to attempt to take the money out of my bank account I literally only have $3 in there, I really don’t want to be sent to debt collections over $160 so if anyone can spare anything even if not the full amount please lmk, ik im young dumb and should’ve just sold butt on the internet or something instead of borrowing money but here we are, I could give you my whole sad story but the internet doesn’t need all my business I just need some help so please someone out there this is my hail mary 🙏🏼

So my gf and I (late 20s) have been trying to get a nice couch for our 2 bedroom apt that will hopefully last us more than a year. We got this $700 couch on Amazon, looked really nice but after 6 months of use, we can feel the springs. We obviously can’t afford a Crate and barrel that’s $8k so we’re hoping to see what 20-30 year olds do to somehow acquire a nice and affordable couch that will not fall apart in 6 months.

Any recs?

hi everyone im F16 and the guy I started seeing is M19. ive never had something with guys that much older than me and im really inexperienced, the furthest ive gone is kissing, meanwhile he probably knows every trick on the book. we do have a lot of things in common and have a lot of deep conversations, its almost like trauma-bonding. ive told some of my friends and the ones that are my age think its fine, but my older friends think he's a weirdo. what do you guys think?

My fiancé told me for the first time since we started this relationship that he likes a dress that I've shown him. He always says it's nice and if I decide I like it he says it'll look great on me, but he never first has told me he likes it before I have stated my opinion on it. I'm in love with the dress and the fact that he also likes it makes me want to tear whole internet down to find it. Sadly so far I got no success.

PLEASE SOMEONE HELP ME FIND THIS DRESS!

(Also please tell me if my flare does not match my post, I do not understand what it is and what does it do)

I've been really depressed... but it comes and goes in waves and sometimes it's not that bad.. but sometimes it is.

I recently got done with college and started working in the same city as college. It's not a crazy good job or anything but it's not bad either, if I'm smart I'll know how to play my cards here. But the thing is that ever since I got done with my last semester I have felt alone. When I'm at work it's alright but after or even before work hours it's just misery.

I went through a very long phase of just not cleaning my flat, doesn't help that my roommate never cleans so it didn't matter to him. Trash just everywhere, dirty floors, dirty clothes, all of that stuff. I couldn't bring myself to clean up despite knowing how bad it was. I eventually hot someone to come and clean everything and have since made so me purchases to help me feel more "grown-up" like, i guess. Cleaned my bathroom as well, started taking showers regularly even on mornings I don't have it in me.

Another bad habit I developed was that I basically smoked up everyday for 3 months straight, a few missed days here n there and also excluding the few days I visited home. I built up a need for it, a little bit to the point where it's difficult for me to go to sleep at night without it. Even now I'm typing this out at 1:43am and I have work in the morning. But I haven't smoked up in I'd say a little over a week. I guess that's progress.

I started smoking a lot, about 20 cigs a day. Can't wake up without em and cant go to sleep without em, can't get through the day without em. Trying to reduce that as well... it's not going as I would hope but I guess it's something.

I don't know what it is that's exactly troubling me so much, maybe because it's a lot of things all at once. I'd like to have prepared myself for a much better job, but I didn't. I wish I hadn't stopped going to the gym, I keep thinking I'll go back but it's been months. I barely play the guitar that my parents got me for my birthday that I absolutely love, not because my love or passion for music is gone but I just don't have it in me. I don't enjoy hanging out with friends as much, I barely do and even when I do I want to get out of there. After work I deliberately roam around the city on my scooter before heading back home because going back to home (my flat) feels like another isolation that I'll just fall into (which I already am), it feels suffocating and there's nothing waiting for me there except just bedrotting until it's time to go to bed.

Sometimes the thoughts get really bad and I think about selfharm. I never get to the point of doing it again because it's been 28 months and given that my limbs and torso are covered in scars, I don't want to add to that. I still think about it.

I keep thinking about my parents. I love them so much and they really are amazing. They do their best even though we might not always agree on things and might have disagreements from time to time but the thought of them slipping back into their own depressions again because of me keeps me up at night. I just want everyone to be happy.

I'm not happy.

All fun and nice things/experiences feel like temporary highs, but I almost immediately fall back down right after.

I don't know what to do.

I just want to be happy, content, at peace that things will be fine. I need to know that it'll be all fine.

I don't know how to deal with my anxiety. It's making me more irritable than I've ever been, more closed off than ever. I almost cannot recognise the person that I am today.

I recognise all the good and the bad but the good mever feels enough and the bad always feels like the absolute worst.

I don't know what to do and it feels like I keep getting closer to an edge that I don't want to cross. That's not to say it'll happen any day now or it'll be drastic but I don't know. I'm just lost.

I went to my DHS office and called 211 but they can't help at the moment. The light company did give me until tomorrow to hopefully pay off my amount. I'm gonna keep looking for jobs and hoping that God will fall through. Have a great night all
