I got freaked out on Wednesday by a new dentist who claimed I needed thousands of dollars worth of dental work. But I am pretty sure she's a fraud.
She has a lot of 5 star reviews. But the 1 star reviews are people like me who she recommended a lot of work to, went to a second dentist, & was told they didn't need anything. And, when I studied the positive reviews, I noticed a lot of them are happy that she recommended a lot of dental work. IDK if these are fake reviews or if people fell for her scheme.
Either way, I am planning to go back to my hometown for a second opinion. I have some recommendations from colleagues for dentists nearby, too.
So, I'm still anxious until I know for sure but I am hopeful that I will feel relief when I get a second opinion.

Huh. I hope it all gets better for you Cinnamon! Anyway I’ve been doing quite well past few weeks. Not for long though I have a new training session coming up. Nervous and not as excited as last time. Just feel dead inside. Oh well. Anyway how’ve anyone elsebeen feeling this past week?
I hope it works out for you, Space Pirate. What are you training for?
I've been overwhelmed recently because I was struggling with trade school, but burned out and haven't told my family I haven't been in almost two months. I don't want them to be disappointed in me. I work for my family's business right now but I'm trying to find a new job and it's so hard with no formal education or skills ): I just don't think working and going to school is feasible for me but it makes me feel like a complete failure.

be kind to yourself ♡
Oh good luck, I hope you'll get to find a good job !
I'm dealing with the same kind of issues atm tbh... The problem is that I could go back to university but that's definitely not my health condition's opinion... I had a short contract recently, I don't know if interim agencies exist in your country but well... That's where I'm trying to apply as much as possible (short contracts are the best I can do for the moment)... Well I just got out of a severe depressive episode thanks to this contract, the company leader even told me he was going to renew my contracts until I get my handicaped worker notice and then eventually he would hire me for good... He was a liar, when my contract ended I just did not have anymore contacts with him, my colleague got the same treatment, then the agency called me to tell me that my contract is now over. A lot of employers do this, that's not fair... It's been now two months since I got unemployed and I am still mentally recovering (that's why I spend a lot of time on XL, people here are amazing, it helps me escaping reality in a healthier way than sleeping away my days, and the old internet energy always soothes me !)
Recently got through a lot of crappy things, but I got to hold on and fight, that's the way life is...
It's okay to feel like you would not handle going to school or to work for the moment and that does not make you a failure in any way. We are all humans, we have our flaws, and mental health matters. Take time to recover from your burn-out, those are extremely grave mental breakdowns and you should take time for you and rest as much as possible !
Oh and... You are not your parents, screw their possible disappointment ! You are already doing the best you can and parents are always expecting their children to do the unaccomplishable... If they are trying to force you, etc... Well that's a toxic parenting behaviour and probably the worst way to help you. Take your time, you can do it, you are capable, this is YOUR life. And, believe me, hapiness is the only true success in life, the only thing that worths putting effort in.
Sorry for my bad English T.T

Chase, I am not sure what trade you are studying in trade school.
My brother went to trade school first for carpentry & then for his electrician certificate; these are physically demanding jobs. Where I live, trade schools include cooking, nursing, dental assistants, & veterinary assistants, etc. These are all very labor-intensive fields. Even when you are still in-training, they require a lot of hands-on practice. So, I can imagine how trade school can make you feel burnt out, especially if you are also working for your family's business. Trade school in & of itself can be like a full-time job.
Teally, short contracts can be good or bad. I have met people who loved working contracts & had a great experience.
When I was unemployed a few years ago, I signed up with an interim agency & had a horrible experience. My anxiety was through the roof. I thought it was better to be unemployed than deal with the stress. If you can afford not to work, it might be healthier than doing contract work for bad bosses.

Thank you so much Cinnamon ♥
I recently had a job opportunity in a pressing... Might give it a try. ^^
I wish I could afford not to work but that's impossible for me and neither my family could help me, when I get money, I have to help them as well. God I wish I did not come from a very poor family... But at least, it gives me motivation go to to work and working kind of helps with my intrusive thoughts.
I know the lady who has the pressing and she's adorable, I hope she won't turn out to be an a$$hole but I think I might be safe, she's really kind and understanding. We'll see how that turns !
Lots of love ♥

Had a really rough day today, I think there's something going around because all the mental illness baddies I talk to have also had a rough go of it this week. I had a wee bit of a complete mental breakdown that involved me screaming complete nonsense at my husband for about 30 minutes... only after the fact do I realize he has had his mic on in a discord call with all our friends X_X I've since apologized and made it up to my husband but now I can't bring myself to face them, I'm so ashamed of my behavior, and it feels like I'm powerless to stop it. Every time I get my cycle I lose my marbles completely and turn into what feels like a different person. I'm counting the days until I can get a full oophorectomy and get some testosterone in me instead bc this whole estrogen thing just does not work with my brain chemistry
don't like looking at trans ppl? gauge out your eyes then <3
