The gastritis is..... bad. And I'm tired of working through the pain. But my friend made me dinner this evening which was amazing because I'm so tired of making food that's suitable for me to eat.
Never take ibuprofen on an empty stomach.

I teach English as a foreign language and if any of my students wrote the same way you do I'd cry with joy. You have no problems with accuracy but if you're having trouble speaking then it's fluency you need a hand with. Conversation classes would be a good place to start or as someone mentioned just chatting to someone over the phone or zoom.
Also if you really want to expand your vocabulary, try learning lists of phrasal verbs. Even my most advanced students find them difficult, but native speakers use them all the time so it helps with understanding and will make your English sound more natural.
Girl, no. Our Alabama is most definitely Roscommon.
What's GGG in this context? Good guy Greg??
Edit: it means Good, Giving and Game!
I just dived into some Linklater too! I watched Before Sunrise and Me and Orson Welles. I love Linklater's portrayals of youthful optimism. They make me excited for the future.
Thanks for these!
You know it's funny, I live in a place with no extreme temperatures but that's really wet and I've realised that we don't have shoes to match our climate at all. Lots of people have recommended boots to me (which is a great shout, don't get me wrong!) but I already have a lovely pair of waterproof winter boots that I have already gotten resoled once by a brilliant cobbler. I'm specifically looking for sneakers that are waterproof because boots are too warm and life's too short to hang around all day in a pair of wet canvas shoes (remember it doesn't have to be raining for feet to get wet - one step in long grass or a puddle will do it).
It's why I love my eccos and have bought so many pairs (now on my fifth). It just seems so wasteful to drop them in the bin when the stitching goes on them.
These are great! Thanks superkret :)
I haven't used calm in a long time but my favourite ones to start were the body scans because they're so simple. I used to set the timer to something really short like 3-4 minutes to start and I did them on my break in work in a call centre job.
Sometimes it helped, and sometimes it was frustrating, but it acted like a temperature check on my emotions. If it was frustrating I knew I was more sleep deprived or stressed so it let me know I needed some more self care, like an early night or some time to myself.
I'd like to echo another commenter's advice of looking into therapy if you can afford it. At the same time as I was getting into meditation I also got CBT therapy from a fantastic therapist and it was one of the best things I ever did. If you have any questions about it feel free to ask.
Best of luck OP 💕
There's a reason why so many British people live on the Costa del Sol!
Also "Here comes the sun" by the Beatles makes a lot more sense when you realise that it was written by four guys from Northern England.
Browse tumblr. Haven't found my niche yet on lemmy. I'm also learning a new language on Duolingo and am halfway through Ulysses!
The Blindboy Podcast brought up this problem (adult children living with their parents because of the housing crisis) on one of his recent podcasts, but he framed it from the point of view of the adult children. I'm interested to hear what kind of struggles you face on the opposite side, apart from what you've just mentioned here. How did you picture your life when you got to this stage and how has that changed?
Better than last time I commented on this thread! My gastritis has taken a turn for the better which has had a huge positive effect on my mood. I got some extra hours in work too, after working part time for ages due to being sick. I'm hoping to pick up some private students for online lessons after the summer to earn some more money so I can move out of my house which has been the plan since 2020 but it's been delayed at every turn 😭 2025 is going to be my year... Possibly
