I've been tracking what I think is PMDD for a few months now and something is confusing me. I have two peaks of symptoms - one just prior to my period starting which then eases and then another on about day 4 for just a few days. Is this still PMDD?! It happens at the same time each cycle which makes me think it must be, I just thought PMDD was just about the bit before. Does this happen to anyone else?

I found out I was pregnant last Sunday and knew I had to get an abortion as I know I am not financially or mentally stable enough to be a mother just yet. Luckily I’m in Canada so abortion isn’t something hard to get. On the 7th I had a meeting at the hospital to discuss the difference in medical vs surgical abortion and decided to stick with surgical as it seemed like it would be less traumatizing for me personally. The nurse thankfully was very knowledgeable and was very supportive in whatever I wanted to do. I know passing it on my own would cause me to freak out in comparison to getting the vacuum. I booked my procedure for the 20th. I’m terrified of the upcoming procedure and even though they explained what would happen I’m still scared of the unknown since this is such a new experience to me. I will be getting the sedation that will be offered which the nurse said would help ease my anxiety, but nonetheless it’s still a lot to prepare for mentally. I wanted to share my thoughts as I’ve never had an abortion and it’s a lot for me to process. In addition I am making sure I go back on birth control afterwards as I don’t want to go through this again until I’m ready to actually have a baby. I was just wondering if anyone who has done the surgical abortion and has had a positive experience or found it less terrifying than what they thought it would be could maybe talk about it, if not that’s totally cool too. But I think hearing other peoples stories could help me in feeling more okay with everything. Thank you.

I would like advice on how to forgive my emotionally immature, hypocritical and unreasonable mom.
Earlier today, my mom yelled at me in a restaurant because I was worried that my pet rabbit was left alone in a car with no air conditioning. When I went to get my bunny (a girl), my mom said she was going to be fine, but I insisted that my pet could suffocate inside of the car. She became hysterical at this and yelled she would not suffocate. She told me not to overreact but also proceeded to say "If your pet suffocates then kill me."
When we got to our rest house (we're on a staycation of sorts), I heard her screaming our pet dog's name (let's call him Apple) who happened to be nearby a larger dog (Peanut). Peanut wasn't even doing anything, he didn't even look aggressive and my mom was screaming as if Apple was about to die. Hearing her scream like that really pissed me off when Apple was in no way going to get hurt, but when I got understandably worried over my rabbit who was definitely at risk being left inside of a car, she got hysterical at me for "overreacting".
This issue basically killed my mood for the rest of the day. I'm still mad and what's worse is that I can't even show my anger because my mom will just see it as me being a brat.
Like many Asian parents, my mom is not someone who apologizes and rarely ever goes out of her way to understand other people's perspectives. Therefore a healthy conversation with heexpecting an apology from her is out of the table.
The only for me to move forward is to really forgive her, but I don't know how. I would really appreciate some advice or maybe insights from anyone in a similar situation!
Extra info about my mom (that might help you guys understand what she's like):

• Her love language is giving gifts. She's actually quite a chill mom, she always gets me takeout, lets me sleep in late and buys me lots of stuff. I know I'm a spoiled child but that doesn't mean I can abandon the safety of my pet! While she was yelling at me she said that I was "too privileged" and me worrying over the safety of my pet was some kind of abuse over her generosity.
  
• My mom got me the rabbit as a gift. It was an impulsive purchase and she had no idea how to take care of the bunny. I did all of the research and learned how to care for the bunny. I noticed whenever I have to ask her to do something inconvenient in any way for the sake of my rabbit's safety/wellbeing, she gets really mad. But when it's concerning our dogs it's fine with her.
  

My kids dad and I got separated and divorce 2 years ago we are on good terms regarding co parenting and since his close with my brother he was invited to his wedding perfectly ok with me since the kids were trailled to get extra time with their dad.
I was taking a video of mum and kids at the wedding and posted it on Instagram hours later I got a call from my ex yelling about my camera catching him dancing drunking in the background I said "so what" he told me he's getting engaged to his conservative girlfriend soon and if her and conservatives family him see it in the video then there's gonna be problem I thought that was silly he did man I take it down but I decline he insisted saying he was technically recorded Via my camera and he did not give consent I call him ridiculous and refuses to take it down he got the kids involved which got me mad and the argument escalate.
My mum is saying I should take it down but I feel like he's trying to control my social media activity. AITA

Hi everyone!
So I got rear ended on May 4 the other driver and insurance accepted fault. The body shop gave an appointment for the 26th this month to take it in and looked at.
In the mean time I went to an accident er clinic and got checked out as well as got 3 chiropractor sessions done. Overall my mid back is feeling better but my neck and shoulder area still hurt everyday since then, I also get headaches at least 1-2x a week. The other driver’s insurance called me yesterday and said that she will be paying out the two weeks of lost wages and she is setting aside money for 12 more chiropractor sessions. She also is only paying $750 for pain and inconvenience… She also sent over a form for me to sign, which was a injury release form or something like. I didn’t sign it yet, but she already went ahead and sent the money to my bank for lost wages and the inconvenience.
My question is that I’m still in pain and looking for alternative treatment along with chiro, so if she is “setting aside money” and making me sign this form, what happens if I incur more medical treatment/bills?
Also does the pain & inconvenience settlement seem fair? To me it doesn’t considering I’m not even able to sit long hours anymore and complete my work.

Today I noticed several goldfish eggs and was wondering how to keep them safe. The eggs are fertilized and I have no idea who, what, where or when it happened. I found them while vacuuming the tank. We just lost some goldies to ick and I'm not sure if that will hurt the eggs.There's one surviving goldfish and 3 tetras in the tank. I would like to keep the new fish if possible, so I should get a hatchery but not sure anything past that. Any tips or anything really would be helpful.

i am a paralegal and just started this job in april. so yesterday i wasn’t feeling well. i take the train to and from work everyday and then an 8 minute walk from the train station to my office. i felt like crap on the train. nauseous and just sick to my stomach. unfortunately, i got sick in the hallway of my office and didn’t make it to the bathroom. i went to the bathroom to clean myself up and was hysterical because i got sick all over myself. i didn’t know what to do. i was embarrassed, stressed, and so many other emotions. i texted my friend who i work with (i use friend loosely here) and told her what happened and i don’t know what to do and i’m so upset and she ignored me. i went into the office and asked her if she got my text and she told me to figure it out on my own and she basically called me a liar because i lied about who i wanted to go to the taylor swift concert with. that’s another story. so i figured it out on my own. i called my office manager and told her what happened and said i need to go home. i felt so much better after i got sick so i didn’t want to take the whole day off. i just needed to go home to change and shower so i was going to work remote for the rest of the day. mind you this was 9:15 in the morning. my office manager understood and said it was fine for me to go home and work the remaining of the day from home. my “friend” texted me later saying i was so unprofessional and i should have taken the day off instead of working from home. i told her i didn’t know what to do and was very upset and i thought i did the right thing considering the circumstances. she said it looks bad that i can work from home but not at the office. i said, i got sick on myself and thought i did the right thing. she told me that i didn’t so i was upset and anxious all day yesterday thinking i’m going to get fired for this. am i overreacting? did i do the right thing? this never happened to me before and i am anxious as ever.

Hello, first of all im new to this sub because i have been experiencing some issues whilst getting to know a girl and being not so expert in the field of dating or meeting women im fencing with a lot of thoughts and confusion towards this particular situation. I will try to put everything on context in order for you to understand as much as possible and to get some advice for a better turn around :).
So here it goes, in March i met a girl who was visiting my city becuase she has family there. She is my neighbour´s niece so she asked me if i could get her out to meet bars and so something else because felt a little bored (shes my same age 26). I took her out on a Tuesday and we repeated on thursday and friday. That friday was great, we talked all day and went for dinner and the kissed a bit. She told me that she expected more rapid response from me but oh what the hell. The next day i reached out texting her and she was cold, i didnt understand why tho. I reached again on monday because she was leaving on tuesday and i wanted to ask her what was wrong. Long story short she claimed that it was just a kiss and she was on vacation no more than that blabla. I asked if we could stay connected at least and she happily agreed. A couple of days later she dm me on instagram with some cat reels and we started talking, days passed by and we continue talking even more, we asked questions about us, things we liked or not, plans we will do in the future such as going art shows, food, coffees, etc. For 2 months we talked till no end and everything was great because i was going to move to the city where she lives (not because of her but my studies and work). I told her that i was moving and she didnt show a GREAT emotion towards that at the moment, but continued planning things for the future.
As in May i arrived to the city and of course we continued texting. One day i came across a coffe shop she told me and i said to her hey, i just happen to came across the place you told me about, want to come one day? She answered that weekend could not make it but next one surely yes. I was like ok no problem and continued talking as usual. That weekend came down and i invited her for saturday, she told me already had plans but if i wanted to move it to sunday and i agreed, after that we talked a lot that same day, i saw her texting me like she was very and eager to meet. That sunday came and hours before i texted her to meet at certain time because i finished a footbal match sooner than expected. An hour or so later she replied to me saying she had a headache and would text me a little later when she felt better. (i already began to think that she would possibly say no, and she did). She texted me the classic “oh you are going to hate me but” message and i said ok no problem, get well soon and we shall meet the next time. Days passed and i didnt talk to her again, she responded to my ig messages i left her on sunday (yes we talked mainly on IG but always talk about the date on WPP, crazy i know) She told me sorry for the delay and if i was ok, i replied her that i was fine in a cold (but not in the jerk way). We soon started to talk as before again and i propose on a wednesday a date again to what she agreed on a beer on saturdays night. When the day came up she told me that she could not make it for the night but instead offered me going to a 6pm coffe. I agreed but well, i must say i saw her with low to non effort for the date whatsoever, as it was like an obligation she had. I mean it was the first time we saw each other after 3 months and she was acting like whatever. The meeting lasted just 1:30 hs because she was in a hurry and tho i felt happy in that moment, i started to realize she didnt see it that way, she was weird, a little distant and not so eager after not seeing each other for almost 3 months. I took her near her house, it seems that she didnt want to let me know where she lives and told her that we eventually would talk during the week to that she said yes indeed. I did text her on tuesday about a food place she recommended me and i noticed some cold messages from her again, she took hours and hours to respond and made me feel like what happened? At this point i was already aware that something was happening. So enough of texting i offered a meeting again on saturday after a couple of messages and she said she had plans with friend for a birthday (back in the coffee shop she told me that she was already planning it but i forgot) However in any moment she counteroffered me so at that point i was ready to move on and stop trying. I replied the next morning saying that it was ok, no problem and at least we could fix another time. She never replied to this last message which happened a week ago. She still has me in Wpp contacts, she follows me on IG too but doesnt see my stories so she knows maybe i could reach her anytime.
I went for friends and family for advice and help, everyone told me that for them she seemed interested at the beggining but if she didnt make the effort of at least setting up another day for a meeting then she was not that into me. Im very sad at the moment trying to understand what could have happened, and the fact that she isnt capable of text me after knowing me for more than 3 months its driving me crazy!, its not like im a tinder match that she never got to met. I have been single for a long time, i love spending time for and to myself. Im a nice guy with job, hobbies and friends so its not like im trying to find a hole in my heart just because im bored, when i see someone worth i go for it. This might not be the right girl for me tho after all.
I ask here for any advice, help and whatever helps me cross this emotions of dissapointment because some days i ask myself if i should text her explaining myself what i feel (i already know what she doesnt want with me but i would like to stay in contact tho because we shared a lot of interests and was funny to be with her) but at the same time i know that i did nothing wrong. However i sadly have the hope that she will text me anytime and that feeling is the most difficult one for me to erase.

So, took my biology paper 2 today, and my phone rang whilst in my pocket.
They have no evidence it was mine, but I did make eye contact with one of the invigilators as i was subtly turning it off. I had absolutely no idea it was even on me. In all honesty, I thought i’d left it at home, but i suppose myself pre-exam wanted to take my phone for safety precautions whilst I was walking to school.
Someone called me twice in a row, issuing the ‘emergency bypass’ and so I got the full call with the noise.
Worried about this, but haven’t really found an answer on the forum. Was hoping to get some advice or for someone to tell me what’ll happen.
I haven’t talked with any members of the teacher body or exam invigilators.

Hello! I’m (19F) and my partner is (24M) -recently graduated. I’m in desperate need of some advice, everyone I’ve talked to has been pretty mean about it and or unrealistic. Anything help:)
So, my boyfriends family is pretty disgusted-to say the least- at the idea of moving in before marriage. They think we should just get married, and my own parents completely agree to moving in and understand that signing a lease is also a very big step. I am also 19 and HALF way to graduating so marriage is a pretty scary thought. Yes! I love him and YES I’m committed but not enough to get married!! They kinda treat me like a birthing machine and talk about grandchildren a lot but I think I just overplay that specific situation up because the thought of kids is also very SCARY.
Quick context - sorry - his older sister just moved in w her bf and they were pretty upset but seem okay now…
ANYWAYS- we recently signed the lease and are both excited but scared. We haven’t told his parents (they live in another state - 16hrs away) and my bf doesn’t really seem to care as much and says we will just figure it out. I feel terrible and not sure what to do. I feel like they will blame me since I’m still in school and or because I’m the one that mentioned how important it was for me to live with a partner first. I really do like his parents and don’t wanna be seen as - anything negative :/
Sorry if this is confusing - it’s morning and it’s consuming me - and any advice would be WONDERFUL <33

I grew up an only child. I always wished I had younger siblings. I started dating her sister 10 years ago when she was 4. From day one I was playing with her, coloring with her, pretending with her. This carried on over the years. I’ve been constant part of her life. I’d see her multiple times a week. Even 10 years later, still married to her sister, with a child of our own, she still comes over once a week to hang out.
She has always called me her big brother and I’ve called her my little sister.
Recently, the entire family has had an aversion to calling me her brother. To the point that they’ve been dissuading her from calling me that, including my wife. I don’t understand what’s happened. I’ve always taken active steps to make sure the relationship we have is appropriate and familial. One of her biological brothers has even taken a point to rub it in that he’s her real brother and that “she tells her friends that (he’s) her favorite brother.”
I’ve seen her more in her life than both of her blood brothers combined.
I’ve helped her grow into the person she is now.
I’ve supported all of her interests and show up when no one else would.
She’s told me I’ve influenced her interests more than anyone, to the point people joke that she’s a mini me.
I was the one that held her in the ER after she found her mom dead on the floor while everyone else was panicking.
She’s my sister and I’m her brother. It hurts so much that people are trying to tear that away from me. I know it’s just a word, but it’s a word that means more to me than most things in this world.

So my japanese parents immigrated to Germany so I was born and raised here. As I grew older I got asked by people if I’m mixed, and more people would be suprised by me speaking japanese or by me telling them I have japanese parents. Lately it’s been happening more so I got more curious so I did a DNA test. So fast forward DNA test results come back via e-mail and I read: “ can be excluded as the biological father of because they do not share common genetic traits.”
My heart just sunk. All this time I just believed he is my father. I just had no reason to suspect you know, after all he is he great dad. Even if they are great parents, i feel like I still deserve this kind of information. I’ve been living with this information for a month, never having the courage to tell anyone, still telling people that i have japanese parents when they ask. It just feels like a natural response already, and I couldn’t live with telling all the people that it wasn’t the real truth, it would feel really awkward for me.
On sunday I spent my birthday with my parents, was contemplating about telling them, but I just literally forgot cause I had a great time. Its just not really on my mind you know? Maybe a part of me is fine with living with this lie. Part of me also still think its not true and that I should have spent more money on a more expensive DNA test instead of the cheapest one.
Maybe I will try another DNA test. Also the test was done by swabbing mine and my dad’s mouth. I even felt awkward telling my dad I was curious about it. He even jokingly said that we gonna look for my real father lol.
Might have missed some details but that is all I have to say for now. Thank you for reading

What should I do to become an adult? Akane Amou, who grew up with her parents forbidding any kind of entertainment, is a little bad with "stimulating" stuff, to the point she can't even watch a kissing scene in a drama.

I'm not sure if I used the right flair for this post, or if I'm even in the right subreddit for this, but this is what happened. I was trying to fake a stolen phone scenario for my friend where I locked my own phone remotely through the find my iphone website, and then tried bruteforcing my own passcode, but it just never stopped me from trying passcodes, and I ended up trying about 28 different passcode combos and it never gave me the iphone is disabled screen. Is this normal or did I just discover a new exploit?

As some of you might know, Reddit is going to essentially cripple third party client access. I am visually impared and struggle with the website in it's current form, so I might not be able to stick around here much longer. I was wondering if there was a back up plan?
