Quote from oceanwaves1998 on September 22, 2022, 4:31 pmMan that is rough. Honestly we do a chore chart every Sunday night. Pretty much treats it like work shifts. He got the evening shift until 8 then I take over. It ain't always perfect but it helps split the mental load. If he ghosts his shift we talk about it the next day no yelling just facts. You gotta set boundaries early or it never changes.

Quote from Mauvemission on December 24, 2022, 12:47 ami used to pay for one of those apps but stopped after a year. honestly the ads were more stressful than the calm sounds. now i just sit in my garden or listen to birds from the porch. doesnt cost a dime and feels just as peaceful. maybe we just need quiet time without the fancy tech telling us how to breathe.

Quote from Spindlechore on September 16, 2023, 10:22 pmmy husband used to say the same thing back in our twenties. Tbh, i just stopped asking him what he wanted for dinner and started making whatever i felt like eating. he either eats it or he makes his own. honestly it’s been way less stressful since i stopped trying to recreate my mom’s exact recipes. my food is just mine now.

Quote from GentleTide on January 17, 2023, 1:43 pmMine too. Sitting back to back meetings kharab kar diya knee. Doctor bola office chair support nahi hota mai. Main ab lunch break mein thoda walk karta hoon kitchen tak. Cold pack bhi rakhta hoon raat ko. Par sach kahu toh bas time ke saath sahi hoga shayad. Tu bhi rest le, zyada stress mat le.

Quote from Mossadventure on January 29, 2023, 10:22 amLord have mercy girl. I been trying to quit caffeine since 1998 and its a losing battle. I just cut the amount. Start with half a cup of coffee instead of a big mug. Then switch to decaf. Takes forever but hey at least you sleep better. My husband says I dont need it but i disagree lol. Just take it slow yall.

Quote from Theresa1972 on June 6, 2023, 3:42 pmnah that sounds like he’s just trying to get away with being rude. i just tell my partner straight up that his tone is disrespectful and i won’t tolerate it. if he gets defensive then i know he’s not listening. i walk away until he can speak to me with basic respect. you’re not too sensitive for wanting to be treated right.

Quote from jacqueline1997 on June 26, 2023, 10:32 amSame. I feel like I’m running on fumes mostly. I’ve started drinking way more water and forcing myself to put my phone away an hour before bed. It helps a bit but honestly I think it’s just burnout from work and life in general. I’m not even that old yet but I definitely feel it in my bones lol.

Quote from Heather2001 on April 17, 2023, 4:40 pmugh leave her alone. I take so much stuff my daughter thinks I’m one pill away from exploding. Vitamin d, b complex, magnesium, the works. If it makes me feel better then I’m taking it. She rolls her eyes but now she’s putting gummies in my bag. let her think I’m crazy as long as I’m healthy. mi vida es mi fiesta.
