Am an eejit with no idea how to deal with anything. I think a cat is the same as a child. I wash my towels forty times an hour. Am scared someone might actually ask me the time or some other innocous question. Please agree or I'll go in the huff

You’re gaslighting yourself. Book a spa day.

Your chicken wouldn’t have lasted long in my house, OP!

My DSS and DH and DD and DMIL and DNeighbour and DDog are all 6ft4 and eat 3 plates of pasta for dinner. Your chicken would be a snack to them.

But carbs are not the enemy!

Try adding a teaspoon of apple cider vinegar 😋

No, this is MN so her problems are all due to perimenopause and only HRT and counselling will help but she's still allowed to be irrationally fumming about everything

Shoppedatwoolworths · 06/11/2024 01:30

I feel like all you need an enormous salad and a spa day so you can get your ducks in a row. Quack.
