B!TC# IT OUT!

Sounding off...

I am autistic and depressed and have some sort of anxiety. I've recently relapsed and struggled with self-harm. Every time I do it, I get yelled at. No consolation or talking it out, just a scream of "What the f*** is that?" and then not to do it again.

My parents just separated after 10 years. My stepfather kicked my mother out. I later found out that she had been and still is doing drugs, and was doing so while she lived with us for years and years. My 20yo sister lives with us and makes drug deals through our house phone and my stepdad's work iPad. Cocaine, Adderall, heroin--anything and everything. She drinks quite a bit as well. She now has an abscess in two places on her arm from drug injections.

Recently, my 16yo and 20yo sisters, along with my dad, have been extremely secretive about something--I have yet to find what, but I know something isn't right. The 20yo sends me upstairs so she can "talk" with him, which he refuses to do with me ever unless he's stuck in the car with me. They drink together, smoke together, and have a better relationship through deceit and illicit behavior than I ever had being honest.

My dad has been telling other people about my personal life. I received a text from his mother "reminding me to call my office" to get more hours. I'm an adult, lady. Back off. It's now been my mother, dad, and all 4 sisters that have told me to get more hours. I know how to live my life! Quit telling me how I should be doing it, because all of you have done drugs and lied to people's faces for 10 years or more.

I'm so angry and distraught at this point that all of my emotional responses are gone. I feel nothing but burning. I can put up quite a ruse if I must, but I am stagnant in heart and mind.

The 20yo called me a "little b!tch" (I am way, way bigger than her) and I said "Thanks, you too." and kept browsing the web. Nothing makes me feel human, so I'm a mermaid instead [emoji170]

Okay, my sister, 16, has been dating the same guy for almost a year now, next month would've been their one year. They just went to prom together, and everything was hunky dory.

I noticed subtle social media changes that made me think they may have been arguing or something. So I asked her what was up.

They broke up. Apparently the little shit told her the day before prom "as soon as prom is over, I'm done with you. I'm not done until prom is over."

I noticed she seemed significantly less excited that night and while getting ready for prom.
But I didn't want to say anything.

They went to prom, and were fine, until prom was over.... He looked at her when they got in the car and said "so are you going to give me what you know I want or not?"

Yeah. I'm fuming.

She told him heck no. And that he knew better than asking her.
He tried peer pressuring her "everyone else is" and pulling the whole "if you really love me".

She stood her ground with it, he practically shoved her out of the car when He went to drop her off.

Then, not a week later he's bragging about getting with someone who would give him what he "needed"

I bought her Ben and jerrys. And told her I'm proud of her for standing her ground.

But I am still absolutely livid over it.

She seems okay, just doesn't want to talk about it a whole lot.

What do I do? Does anyone want to send her some advice?
Heck, does someone want to send me advice before I spontaneously combust?

[emoji177] I'll make it through somehow. That's why I finally jumped on getting my tail after 10 years, because things have been so terrible here that I just need to get away. I put on that tail, and I'm someone else. I don't have human worries anymore.

I know that I'm doing much better than any of them, but they ignore it and replace it with their own issues. Negative attention is all that is given here. Makes it very hard on the one person who does nothing but good.

My dad didn't even say goodnight or that he loved me...we've been doing this every night since I was young. He just told me to be up by 9 and lock up the house, then shut his door [emoji53]

It's 2:30am here and I'm just now winding down off the anger to sleep.

I've been there. I had an abusive husband, and even after getting away and starting over, the problems didn't just go away. I went through cutting, and then dating lots of wrong guys, then I finally got a good counselor and moved back with my parents. I still have some emotional baggage, but I'm finally starting to feel almost whole again. I think the first step in solving a problem like this is to find a way to get away from the bad environment. I'm glad Mermaiding can help you escape for a while at least

I know this might be out of the question right now for many different reasons but if at all possible you should try to find a therapist. I don't mean for that to be offensive in the slightest (I go to a therapist myself for adhd and anxiety.) If that's not possible then find someone who is trustworthy and mature enough to handle this conversation to talk to about it. I know a real hug is much better but all I can offer is a virtual hug. *hugs*

So my tail just got here, which is absolutely amazing and I have yet to open it.

Heres my bitch, I paid for my tail out of my OWN money but I didnt tell my father, who i live with, the price because I just knew he would freak out. So my tail arrives at the door and I have to pay over 300 uk pounds to get it (on top of shipping etc) which im not too bothered about, I just want to see the tail I have dreamed about for years. So my father finally asks about the cost and I tell him.

He left. Just put on his jacket, called me a few names and left. I dont know if he has his keys and he has left his phone here, so I cant shower before trying on my tail nor can I film the unboxing on my own. PLUS the fact that im not really supposed to be left alone due to my anxiety/depression. I dont understand. It's my money, that I fought really hard to get. He shouldnt be this upset!

Shimmer, first of all, I can make him disappear. My dad worked for the government for years. I'm talking body guarded for Reagan. We can quietly make little pricks vanish in the night. Obviously I'm joking (murder wise, my Dad really did guard Reagan tho). Jokes aside, I'm sorry to hear this but it is definitely for the best. When I was growing up, my family always encouraged me to wait to lose my virginity until I was out of high school because 99% of the people you think you're ready to share your body with end up being jerks. That's just how it is in high school. And I found that to be extremely true. It's sad that your sister had to learn it as well but at least she didn't have to lose that piece of herself in the process. She sounds strong as hell and I hope she finds all the happiness.

I'm so sorry this happened. Some people just don't understand mermaiding or spending that much on any hobby. Hopefully he will come around and be happy for you.

*hugs back* I do have a therapist, and I love her very much. The problem is that my dad thought I didn't need to see her anymore and took me out of therapy for 4 months. I get to go back on the 11th.

I am completely dependent on him, since I don't have a license (just a permit) or a car, and I don't make enough money to live on my own. He rules my life. Mermaiding takes that all away [emoji170]

My stepdad is the exact same way. He's angry that I spent $160 on something I've loved for 10 years. He refuses to talk about it and still blows up on occasion. It's frustrating and a little discouraging, but I've realized that you can't make everyone happy with what you do, so at least make yourself happy while doing it [emoji4]

Well I'm glad you get to go back and see her. When you do I would speak with her about this stuff and about how much you like mermaiding. :)

At least the asshat wasn't conniving enough to play along that everything was hunky dory all the way through prom in hopes of getting "some" and THEN dumping her. B/c that would definitely be worthy of a major beatdown.

I have been trying to get pregnant with my husband and so far its a no go :(

Stop trying and it might happen! I knew a couple who tried for years and then finally decided they were getting too old to have a baby and stopped trying. Next thing they knew they were pregnant with a baby girl. The wife had a daughter from a previous marriage who turned 18 just before the new baby was born lol. I think the stress of trying makes it harder to get pregnant. Just relax and let it happen. Also good to check with a dr to make sure nothing is preventing pregnancy.

Have you taken any ovulation tests?



Sent from my GT-I9500 using Tapatalk

I haven't. Is it similar to a PG test?

Sent from my SM-N920P using Tapatalk

Are you taking anything for fertility? I realize it may be a little scary at first to take fertility sups but talk to your doctor about what he/she recommends!

Also, if you aren't already, track your cycles and ovulation. There are plenty of apps that help track everything and even have forums for women.

It'll happen, just stay optimistic and as stress free as possible.

As a way of bonding, (and kind of scaring her into waiting) I'm having her help deliver my baby in September. The doctor will be there to guide her, but she's the one who will be getting her hands dirty. Sending her the virtual pride! Lol

That, I am so thankful for. I would've thrown him to the sharks if that were the case.
And- my stupid ass bought the little shit a pure bred German shepherd for Christmas because my sister didn't have the money to. So he got a free dog out of the whole thing as well. 😣

I know it, luckily my husband (whom I lost my virginity to in high school) stayed by my side, even when I was a total d-bag to him.
But I've had to help really close friends out of situations caused by jerks and creeps in high school.

Pretty similar actually.

Hey, so I guess I'm back again...

I've had one relationship ever. It lasted 4 months and I saw him a total of 3 times. He lived an hour away. I wasn't allowed to call or video chat, just text. He refused to be affectionate with me in front of his family and spent more time on Yugioh than me. It was very hard on me.

That was two years ago, and I'm still alone. I joined OKC a while back to try and find someone, and yesterday, I updated my profile to include mermaiding.

I got a message from a Navy wannabe (18) that said "r u a real mermaid" and I sent him a picture of me and my tail. He replied with "So you're part fish, part whale?"

I'm so discouraged and depressed and lonely...I've been crying and sleeping all day and I don't want to do this anymore...

Ugh!!! Guys are jerks! Especially young guys lol. I'm not one to give dating advice since I'm single and not even trying to date, but the fact that people keep falling in love and getting married tells me it IS possible! In my own case I got tired of dating and getting disappointed so decided I'll just work on my own health and self image issues and when the time is right it will happen. For years my grandma said "If god wants me to remarry, he'll send someone knocking on my door!" So one day an old friend looks her up and they start dating. When he proposed he said "Merilyn, I'm knocking!"
So I guess what I'm saying is he's out there somewhere. Find yourself a nice fish! [emoji6]

No. Just effing no. Okay? Can someone get me a hefty rubberband to castrate his ass?

Honey, do NOT let some ass bring you down. Okay? And certainly dont let him make you want to quit mermaiding.

You are damn gorgeous, and that ass has no say.

Google Tess Holiday and "Eff your beauty standards"
Someone photoshopped her face on ursulas body. Guess what? She just responded "ursula was a bad ass."

First off;
Whales are majestic and graceful as hell. Not to mention beautiful and smart as well.

Second off;
Tell him to eat a wang. And don't let some little "navy wannabe" get to you.

Coming out of my... what, two month lurking stint to just hop in here and go

http://vignette4.wikia.nocookie.net/...20150913022104

I'm just so frustrated with everything. The last few months have basically been hell on earth, and juuuuuuuuuust when I start thinking that things are getting back together in a relatively normal sense... something else blows up.

And there's no escape from it. Get tired of the family drama involving a certain drug-abusing sibling and decide to just back away and focus on my friends for a while? SURPRIIIISE, a thirty-second argument with one of my best friends that leaves me stranded on the other end of town with no ride home has turned into a full-fledged Civil-War-esque clusterfuck that's tearing my closest circle of friends apart and even drove one of my other best friends into a suicidal mental breakdown! Try to get away from that crap and just bury myself in work? SURPRIIIISE, my hours are screwed around, so the weekends I previously had off I'm now stuck scheduled with a bunch of part-timers who give zero shits about what they're doing, throw their work on me, make a mess of LITERALLY EVERYTHING and continually piss off customers and make ME look bad.

For the last I've-Officially-Lost-Fucking-Track-Now, literally all of my free time when I'm not at work has been spent curled up in my room, curtains drawn and lights off not talking to people because I'm an anxious, depressed mess. I've lost more weight than I thought was possible for me, in such a short period of time, and it's making me nervous. Like, my nerves are completely shot, I feel ready to just start picking fights with people and I feel like that's getting really obvious in the way that I interact with people at work.

I've been in a really unstable mental state for way too long and it's to the point now where I've had to hunt down my little slip of paper with the emergency numbers on it to keep nearby "just in case." Literally every aspect of my social and professional life feels like it's being held together with rubber bands and chewing gum and I'm an anxious, paranoid mess just waiting for it all to crumble apart completely.

Like, I've been trying to handle this stuff as coolly and maturely as possible. But right now I just wanna pick fights and break stuff and angry-yell until the neighbors are filing noise complaints.

I'd say this shit was driving me to drink, except that I've had to be up for work at like 5AM and now tomorrow and Sunday I'm gonna need to be up at like 4:15 because I have even earlier shifts so I can't even touch the stuff.

So here I am in bed, staring at my laptop and complaining on the internet because it feels like that's about all I can do right now.


(also damnit MN stop signing me out when I'm trying to post, I'm about this close to just rage-pitching my laptop out the window.)

We love you though, have some of the cake I made for our gender reveal. Its blue like the ocean ❤

A sleep deprived me got woken up by freaking rats in the ceiling of my room at 2 am in the morning! I swear there has to be more than one because a single rat couldn't have made such a racket. The rats only seem to be in the ceiling of MY room, annoyingly. So at 2 am, I took my blankets down to the lounge room and slept on the couch ( It took a while to find a comfortable position since I'm longer than the couch. My dad found me sleeping there this morning. I asked him to put some rat poison up in the roof. The weather here in Australia is getting colder because we are going into winter.

So I'm spending the night at my bff's apartment and her roommates are so annoying and gross and I usually keep food or leftovers in her little cabinet thing which they let her move in to their place and she only has like once cabinet too keep her non refrigerated foods and med while they have al the other cabinets. She is always embarrassed to have me over because they leave the sink, kitchen and living room full of dirty dishes and trash. She's always the one cleaning up and cleaning the bathroom which they never clean. They also got a huge dog which was in a family with a huge house and lots of land before the roommate got him, the dog chewed up and tore off the door frame on the front door and he has fleas. The cat that they already have never has a clean littler box and the master bedroom always smells like cat urine and feces and the smell also drifts into the living room. My friend is the only one who gives the cat any love and attention because my friend's roommate/friend got bored of the cat and got the dog without even asking my friend. One last thing I'm pissed about is that the roommates also will eat any food I leave, even when it's in Emily's cabinet, and I'm over at least two or more times a week.

She is always embarrassed to have me over because they leave the sink, kitchen and living room full of dirty dishes and trash. She's always the one cleaning up and cleaning the bathroom which they never clean. They also got a huge dog which was in a family with a huge house and lots of land before the roommate got him, the dog chewed up and tore off the door frame on the front door and he has fleas. The cat that they already have never has a clean littler box and the master bedroom always smells like cat urine and feces and the smell also drifts into the living room. My friend is the only one who gives the cat any love and attention because my friend's roommate/friend got bored of the cat and got the dog without even asking my friend. One last thing I'm pissed about is that the roommates also will eat any food I leave, even when it's in Emily's cabinet, and I'm over at least two or more times a week.

I'll say a prayer that your friend gets a new place. They sound like not only terrible roommates, but just plain inconsiderate people. And your friend is their Cinderella. Not okay. :(

Definitely not okay. I hope your friend takes that poor kitty out of there when she leaves.

So. My environmental science class has a field trip to a wolf sanctuary today. Been waiting for it all year. And of course I have food poisoning.

I had so many plans for the day, but I woke up to acid rain! ...not really, but that's what it feels like with rheumatoid arthritis. It's all flared up today [emoji34]
Stupid rain! Stupid body!

That was two years ago, and I'm still alone. I joined OKC a while back to try and find someone, and yesterday, I updated my profile to include mermaiding.

I got a message from a Navy wannabe (18) that said "r u a real mermaid" and I sent him a picture of me and my tail. He replied with "So you're part fish, part whale?"

I'm so discouraged and depressed and lonely...I've been crying and sleeping all day and I don't want to do this anymore...

The appropriate reply would have been: "and there's the reason you can't get a girlfriend..." Followed by: "at least I'm actually living my dream and not just being a pathetic little wannabe."

Guaranteed, he won't get far with dating. Ever.

I'm in my early 30s now and I've never been on a date. The closest I'll ever have to a family of my own is my group of pet rats. And do you know what? I'm fine with that. Yes, it can feel depressing when you think nobody is ever going to really want you, or look at you as if you're the most important thing in the world to them, but it does give you the freedom to be who you want to be, and do the things you want to do without having to worry about someone else. Having a partner isn't the be all and end all. If you're not happy on your own, having a partner isn't likely to fix everything and make you happy. You need to learn to love yourself and find out what truly makes you happy. ❤️

^ tell him to go f*ck himself since he's going to be doing for a while anyways
