2023.06.02 09:36 sumodaz Google Ads negatively affecting the algorithm??

I have recently started my YouTube channel and I am using Google Ads to give it an initial boost. I am targeting simular(ish) channels on their feed and it seems to be working quite well giving me Average cost per view of only 0.0019 USD. It's been a great way to get up and going and gain some viewers and subscribers. However I am a little concerned that the quality of the viewers from Google ads is low. The few people who have found the videos organically seem to watch most of the videos, however those who some from Google ads general stop about the 6% mark. I was wondering whether anyone has used this strategy and if they found similar or when/if they decided to pull back on the ad spend. Also does anyone have any idea whether the algorithm treats those who come from Google ads differently than other viewers? Thanks.

2023.06.02 09:36 MaybeTmwWillBBetter I can't go on no more [TW: suicide]

I had my "event" months ago and my mind keeps going back to the times before that happened, remembering how genuinely happy I was back then, and now I feel like I absolutely deserve to die and can't enjoy life anymore, life was so easy back then and I was so happy without even realizing that. The only two ways my mind gives me are going back in time and "behave myself" or just end it all and stop all the emotional distress. I think I'm losing my sanity, I don't really feel the same way I did before, I wake up every day with zero to little joy and desire to live, I wish I just could disappear. Why doesn't God just kill me already?

My girlfriend likes being dominated however I've always been a sub so it's a little tricky to put myself in that mind set. I know I'll always be a sub but I want to learn how to be dom to please her the way she deserves. If anyone can give some credible sources or just a hint in the right direction it would be greatly appreciated!

2023.06.02 09:36 potatoneedshelpplz Let go of hope and sit back down into reality.

Technically speaking it would be later on in the year that it's been 3 years. But that doesn't matter. Keep the door closed and focused on your future, not the past.
The fact that you even still write to her, when you literally put her in harm's way is a little enraging. I get it to a pint, but it's still wrong and backwards.
Her father is a predator. His step father is one of my abusers. You were so self righteous that you put her in harm's way of those two people. Both predators. Both not safe to be around her, an innocent child.
You don't get to be updated or involved. I gave you one chance, fairly recently, and you said you weren't able to, that's understandable but it also means you have nothing left to look back on.
While I appreciate that you aren't leaving random messages on Facebook begging to see her, it just needs to end.
If you truly loved her you would never have put her in harm's way. You would never have been driving at 40 miles and hour screaming at me over how to split a shopping bill all while head butting your car horn in a fit of rage all while she was in the car. If you loved her you would have gone to therapy long ago. If you loved her life would have been different back then and now too. You would never have thrown things around my home, meaning I had to put her into my bedroom so she wasn't witness to it. Lots of things would never have happened.
Thank goodness we didn't actually bring a child into the world together. I dread to think the mess these past few years could have been.
Maybe now's a good time to start counting your blessings and focus on your future, don't dwell in the past.
She's going to continue to grow up, while being the amazing human being she is, and that won't ever involve you.

2023.06.02 09:36 Account_Double We’re supposed to be in the prime of our marriage, but the DB is so, so real.

Couples of reddit— if you’ve done couples therapy with your partner or are currently in sessions, what has the experience been like for you? If it worked, what do you think it was? And if it didn’t work, what was the defining moment for you? And any advice when approaching this topic with a partner?
I (30F) have been with DH (31M) since we were 16, but got married a year and a half ago. We’ve been going through some really heavy stuff in the last year and I recently expressed my unhappiness in our marriage. We haven’t really been connected and act more as roommates, & are now realizing we are currently diverging onto two different paths in life. If you need more detail I can expand, but the TL:DR is that we’ve agreed couples therapy is the last thing we could think of. We both agree we need some sort of mediator to hash this all out. The only problem is, we’re both at different ends of the spectrum with this— right now, he’s at the “no we’ve been together this long we HAVE to make it work and divorce has never been an option” whereas I’m at the “if we’re holding each other back by holding onto this just because of our history, & if nothing changes, I’d rather us go our separate ways”.
UPDATE
For those who did leave comments, thank you for your insight! I just wanted to give a little update since things have been rather…tense. I also thought it would be good to give some background.
So in therapy a big thing for me is coming to terms with the fact that up until my thirties, a lot of the choices I made weren’t really to serve me, but to make sure I survived. So through each eviction, couch surfing, verbal abuse from my parents, I essentially did whatever needed to be done to just be ok.
Some examples include: one time our car, our only car, got towed and my parents couldn’t get it out and neither could I. I remember I was cool with a guy friend back then and I told him about it and he offered to pay, for a price
Being the perv he was you could imagine what that meant
Luckily DH helped me though. But he was so involved that our relationship dynamic really was this power play of me being indebted to him
Because without him I had nothing. This meant that I put up with everything. Him calling me a bitch, a slut, saying my family and I were a burden, etc. That shit stayed with me for YEARS and I didn’t realize it until I started therapy
So now, I’m finally at this place where I’m like you know what? I’ve spent my life making myself small and easygoing to appease everyone else that I’ve neglected the one person who should matter most.
So now I’m here right. Good job, great friends, way better mental health, & honestly I’m thriving. I don’t HATE me anymore
But DH and I are no longer on the same page. Because our dynamic has changed.
ALL THAT TO SAY
Since we got married it’s been like we’re roommates. He hates my brother. Doesn’t care for my dad. Thinks my dad living with us is what’s making us distant but I said if it were your parents would you feel the same way
When I try to talk to him about things it’s always a score keeping kinda game
He always shouts, which makes me shut down ( he knows this is a trigger for me). Has punched a wall during an argument about my brother. And honestly there is zero intimacy and there’s no attraction left. Not because of looks or anything, but because I don’t feel seen
So I gave him an ultimatum and said he needed to go to therapy to figure his shit out and only then would I agree to couples therapy. But honestly I’m so fucking tired. I feel like I’ve been carrying the relationship for the both of us.
Back to present day~
I’ve made the initial outreach and stuff for couples therapy, but I haven’t told him I’e gotten that far yet because he hasn’t done anything yet about his own therapy sessions. He actually wanted me to schedule them for him, but I essentially told him that if I take control of this, it defeats the entire purpose for the fight. So I kind of am withholding the couples therapy tidbit only because I really want to see how serious he is about all of this. About us. I know that’s shitty of me but I just…I need to know he actually wants to fight for us, or if he just hopes it all goes away.

2023.06.02 09:36 Gloomy-Draft-8633 I am the queen of feeling non-existent bugs on me. Not today.

I pointed out a bug on the wall to my partner right before we went to bed. We have 15ft ceilings so there was nothing to be done about it, he says “that’s ok, he’ll stay right there”
Well let me tell you. He did NOT stay right there. I woke up feeling something on me, after a few swipes I couldn’t find anything. Until I did. The little fella was actually a big fella. A carpenter ant. And he was IN MY SHORTS.
This was an hour ago (02:30) and I cannot go back to sleep. I feel them everywhere!!!!

2023.06.02 09:35 user747800532 To that one girl

Hey,
It’s been a few years. I apologize for reaching out all those previous times. Hope you’ve been well.
Me? I’m doing pretty alright. It bothers me a little that we don’t talk. I would love to know how you’ve been doing but at this point it’s none of my business. Moving on was hard, hell I still wonder how you are sometimes but I’m happy to say I’ve come to some sense of closure.
I guess what I wanted to say was thank you. I’m glad we had that last talk of ours. Where I was in my life at the time is not where you were. I would have hurt you even more so in the future if we had gotten together. It was selfish for me to have wished otherwise. I would have liked for that not to have been but the chapter has closed and the world continues to spin.
I’ve learned so much and grown as a person from that singular experience. You have my eternal gratitude and I sincerely thank you again. Take care friend.

2023.06.02 09:35 Jumpy-Illustrator659 Fucking fuck you jackass

I’m 24. My dad died when I was 8 from an alcoholic seizure. Everyone else on my dad’s side also died from alcohol related things when they were around 40 yrs old.
I stayed away from alcohol for a long time. I started smoking weed and using other drugs with the older kids when I hit 12 because I worked on farms (had money) and hated my life (wanted an escape) but I was always afraid of alc because of my family history.
First couple times I drank I fucking loved it. I was maybe 17. All my homies were drinking shit beer and I always asked for some vodka. I didn’t know what it was doing to me. I’d wake up covered in my own piss completely confused as to what happened. I thought I was doing it normally.
Then came college. I joined a dying fraternity. I rejuvenated it with my high spirits. At this point I knew what alc was and what it was doing to me but my relationship with it was celebrated because of how much fun I was off it.
Now here I am. Done with college. I can’t smoke weed anymore because I’ve had asthma since I was a child and I think my compulsive smoking gave me COPD or some shit. Whenever I drink people still think I’m a riot, but I don’t want to be that.
I’ve drank before work when I worked in a hospital with children, so many fucking times. I still delivered.
I drink before I travel for work now (sometimes 8 hrs in a car with no sleep).
I feel like I’m just waiting for it to get shitty. I wake up every morning and run 6-8 miles and the whole time I tell myself “fuck you, you’ll never be like your dad”. Well, fuck you, you fucking jackass. Look in the fucking mirror.
I know this isn’t a recovery sub and most of you are probably as old as my dad when he died, but fuck this. If you’re voluntarily signing up for this FUCK YOU YOU FUCKING JACKASS. Romanticize this shit a little bit more. Pretend you mean anything to anyone.
Fuck off.
Seats, or whatever you retards say.

I love sport as it gives me a healthy hobby to follow.
But I also hate it because when my team isn't doing so well I take it personally and it makes me angry and sad. I hate that other fans get to brag about how good their team is.
I've been trying to live a more spiritual life for a while now, but can't seem to fix this problem.
I know in the context of life sport means very little, but I still can't help feeling the way I feel when my team loses.
Does anyone have any advice to help me?

2023.06.02 09:33 Rats_for_sale Should I be worried about lack of VRAM?

I have a 1660 super and am perfectly happy with it, but my little brother wants a gaming PC. If I am going to upgrade I want a fairly decent upgrade, but I have heard a lot of bad stuff about a lot of the newer cards on the market that are in my price range. I've narrowed it down to a few cards and wish to hear yall's input.
  1. RTX 3070
  2. RTX 3060 12gb
  3. rx 6700 non xt
I am leaning towards the 3070 because it's raw performance is easily the best of these options, but the 8gb of memory is sorta concerning to me. I play on a 240hz 1080p monitor, so I'm thinking it probably doesn't matter to me, but I do plan to upgrade (sidegrade?) to a 144hz 1440p monitor as soon as I can find one for a good price. Should I even be worried? Is the lack of memory really going to affect me that much?

Preferably in some way that blows my head up. I've been told I'm not allowed to commit sui, but if I was dead it would solve my problems as well as the problems of others in my life, except for my mom's. So you'd also have to look after my mom. And be nice to her. So I'm looking for someone with a little bloodlust, but is mostly a caring compassionate person. Any takers? Or someone with a little bloodlust and who knows someone who would happily take good care of my mom. Problem solved.

2023.06.02 09:31 Boss452 Wolfenstein: New Order (2014) is a fantastic FPS set during WW2.

Got the game on sale recently bundled with the Old Blood prequel game. I have very little experience with FPSs before but the game is very easy to get into and familiarize yourself with the FPS system.
The game is relatively short. You can be done around 15-18 hours. It is divided into a series of chapters and each chapter goes around for around 40-50 minutes. So one can easily be done with a couple of chapters per session.
The story is mission based. You play as an American soldier who basically is a one man army taking on dozens of Nazi soldiers and even hi tech machines/robots at a time and clearing the lot in various places. Each chapter puts you with different tasks to accomplish, all leading up to defeat General Deathshead, who is the architect behind the latest Nazi tech.
Some of the missions are really fun. Mild spoiler, but one mission also puts you on the freaking moon.
The gameplay is very satisfying. There is a variety of weapons and unlike in most games, each weapon has its own unique use and you are actually forced to utilize each of them at various points.
Some of the levels also have bosses which are almost always very challenging on the higher difficulty. But never unfair. Well except for the very final boss. He will test your patience for sure.
I thought the voice acting and even music were strictly average. There are brief cutscenes here and there and the dialogue writing, particularly the hero's musings are very, very cheesy. But the kind of game it is, it somehow fits.
Overall, Wolfenstein A New Order is a very good game and I recommend it to all FPS fans and even those who aren't.
My rating: 8/10
How do you rate Old Blood and New Collussus?

2023.06.02 09:31 DrDrankenstein I've never had a confrontation with a customer until tonight

I've been delivering since the beginning of the year and never had any issues with customers until tonight. So to set the scene, I'm delivering a good sized order from some BBQ joint about 12 min from the customer. Customer lives in a nice-ass gated community (guard at the entrance checking my ID and everything) and they had tipped decently to begin with. I drop the food off, take a pic, and mark the order as delivered. I get back in the car and drive a street down to turn around. As I'm passing back by the house, there's a woman out front waving me down with order in hand . I roll down my passenger window and ask her what's going on. "My order is missing two meals." I tell her I'm sorry and those were the only bags they gave me at the restaurant. I start to explain the refund process to her when she cuts me off saying "I don't want a refund, I want the rest of my order."
Here's where I might have fucked up. I tell her I can go back and get the rest of her order, she seems relieved, until I say "how's an extra $10 sound?" Mind you, she's been somewhat cooperative until now.
"What?! Why would I pay you more? I've already tipped you and you haven't even done your job!" I'm trying to explain gas money and time away from dinner-rush orders I'll be missing out on when her husband pulls up. Fucking perfect timing huh? He gets out of his shiny Cadillac SUV wearing light blue scrubs (surgeon I'm guessing) and saunters over. She's begins angrily telling him "this guy wants ten more dollars just to go back for the rest of our order that HE forgot!"
The husband just kinda looks at me disappointingly and says the same shit. "Why are we gonna pay you more? We already paid for food we didn't get. Didn't you check the order before you left?" I start saying something about how I'm not going to rifle through your food, counting salads and steaks, and he throws his hands up and mutters "just give him the $10" as he walks off... There's about ten seconds of silence while the wife just looks at me like she's about to have a meltdown, and eventually says "fine, I'll give you more money when you get back."
Sure enough as soon as I walked in the restaurant, the guy that handed me the order originally was like "Oh, dude I'm so sorry, here's the other bag! Do you want some extra desserts on the house?" I drove that shit back and left it at their door and told the ring cam "here's the rest of your order with some extra desserts. Don't worry about the $10."
Fellow drivers, was I a little bitch tonight? I feel like I was manipulated into feeling bad about ten fucking dollars, 30 minutes of extra driving, and an order I didn't check from some rich assholes. What would you have done?

2023.06.02 09:31 Growacet One Christian's opinon on what it means to be progressive....

Canada is a progressive nation, of that there can be little doubt, everywhere you turn you're constantly reminded of how progressive we are. Progress denotes movement, workplaces and schools provide progress reports, detailing how a person or group is doing in pursuit of a goal.
But what are we progressing toward? What is the goal being pursued.
I think it can best be summed up in one word, and that word is decadence. Decadence used to be regarded as something negative, something to be avoided, it shares the same root as the word decay. And decay is what Canada and the western world are embracing in my opinion.
If the western world's embrace of decadence and the decay it brings aren't clear enough already consider an annual gay "pride" event that takes place in New Orleans, the festival is branded as "SOUTHERN DECADENCE", it's right there for everyone to see.
And in our upside down world where good is evil and evil is good, where darkness is light and bitter is sweet.....in our upside down world decadence is wonderful, it's to be celebrated. It's like having a gala party when someone is diagnosed with terminal cancer: "AIN'T IT GRAND"!!!
Decadence is defined as moral or cultural decline as characterized by excessive indulgence. This is what we are "progressing" toward, it's been the death knell of socieites, kingdoms and empires since the dawn of time....and yet many think it won't happen THIS time.
But how did we get here? How did we reach a point where many regard cultural and moral decay as a good thing? It's because we've abanondend truth, even simple words no longer have objective meaning anymore, everything is based on context, and we've been on this road for a long time.
It wasn't long ago that the word SICK started to sometimes mean awesome, great and wonderful. We've taken a word that means diseased and flipped it upside down. And it wasn't the first word we've done this with, when an athlete is described as bad....often that means the opposite, that he (or she) is incredibly good. HOF NBA legend Larry Bird is often referred to as: "A bad man", with bad meaning amazingly good.
Is it any wonder we live in a world where men ignore biological and objective reality and declare that they are women, and that many affirm their thinking? Should we be surprised that starting just three odd years ago healthy people had to quarantine because healthy was replaced with disease spreading "asymptomatics"?
Christians should be well aware of what is happening, and should equally recognize that this battle between truth and lies, that this is a battle of principalities, that this is spiritual warfare.
What do we see from those pushing this agenda? How are those who advocate perverting the meaning of simple words, how do they manifest themselves in this crazy world we're devolving into?
They seek to sate (or satisfy) the lusts of the flesh, they seek to rob children of their innocence by introducing sexuality into their world before they're even sexual beings. They use anger and intimidation, encouraging selfishness and self abasement....
We live in an era of cancel culture, where those who control both the medium and the message, they will silence those who don't go along. With AI powered bots they can create a digital illusion of mass acceptance, and we know it's an illusion because in the real world sales of Bud Light have tanked and people are staying away from Target in droves.
This isn't just a battle of hearts and minds, this is a battle of souls. The enemy doesn't just want your obedience, he wants much much more. He wants you to abandon truth, he wants to replace light with darkness so that he can direct your steps, and he wants your life....and not just this temporal earthly life, he wants your eternal soul.
Yes, the stakes are that big.
Those wanting to dig into the scriptural passages on leaned on for this can read Isaiah 5: 19-23 and Galatians 5: 16-25

2023.06.02 09:30 ViperTheKillerCobra Why Set Rotation would NOT Work in Yu-Gi-Oh!

I never thought that I would get a need to make this post, but a certain cis white male Yugituber has invoked a recent push in the idea that Set Rotation is the solution to a majority of Yu-Gi-Oh's problems, and that it's very reasonable for it to be implemented, be it replacing the main format, or otherwise.
Before I explain my reasoning as to why this is a ludicrous idea, let's go over what Set Rotation is, and what it COULD potentially fix.
What is Set Rotation? (No it's not the card)
For the few of you who don't know, Set Rotation is the main gimmick of some other TCG's 'Standard' formats, i.e. MTG and Hearthstone. The idea is that the only cards that are legal in this Standard format are cards that have been printed in the past 2 or 3 years, and any sets that go past this timer 'Rotate Out', and become no longer legal for the format.
So, what would this potentially mean for Yu-Gi-Oh?
Slows Down Powercreep
This is the big one, and the main thing pro-rotation players hone in on as to why Set Rotation would be a step in the right direction. With every card being on a soft time limit, Konami would no longer have an incentive to make each set stronger than the last to drive in sales, and can instead sell sets on the notion of "This old set has less time to live, but this new set is on a fresh limit." This theoretically means that the rampant powercreep we've been seeing these last few years can be curved down majorly, and we can go back to the strategic back-and-forth gameplay we've been yearning for.
Curation of Good Formats
This next one is a little more nuanced. With the need to keep track of 10 000+ cards no longer on the menu, Konami can have an easier time designing exciting, interesting formats for the players to try out. They can print archetypes without the sorry that this random card from 2005 would break it, or that this random 2018 staple blows it out of the water. They could even pick and choose cards that have since rotated and reprint them in a core set, or as some have proposed, a yearly "Base Set", containing all the staples that have since rotated out of Standard.
And... that's about it! Those are pretty much all there is to Set Rotation, and how it could fix many of Yu-Gi-Oh's issues. And to be fair, curving down powercreep and the potential for fun gameplay experiences does look very enticing.
Let me explain why it isn't so simple.
25 Years of Fans for What?
Of the big 3 card games, MTG, Yu-Gi-Oh! and Pokemon, Yu-Gi-Oh! is the only one where its main format does not feature Set Rotation. It would be pretty disingenuous to say that a negligible amount of people were drawn to this game FOR its lack of Set Rotation, instead of DESPITE it. And a large amount of the playerbase, and TCG players in general, don't appreciate their cards being on a blatant timer. "Well, they were on a timer anyways thanks to powercreep!" Not to the staples, they aren't. Generic cards last a solid 6? 7 years of consistently good use until a new card takes its place? And while it's true that archetypes certainly face a large brunt of the powercreep problem, many players simply don't care. They want to keep playing that rogue deck they always liked, and it being no longer legal due to just being too old is a real downer on them. This leads us to...
It Can be an Alternate Format! Or Can it?
It's no surprise that Konami is absolute shit at managing alt formats. This, alongside some other points I'll get to later, is an example of Set Rotation simply asking waaaay too much out of Konami. If a Rotation format were to be introduced alongside the current, "Legacy" format we're all familiar with, if Konami doesn't push it out the ass and shove it down our throats, it's natural thanks to the past 25 years of its history that the Legacy format would be more popular. Simply adding Set Rotation this far into a game's life requires extremely careful planning from a company, and extreme customer loyalty. And Konami does not check either of those boxes.
I Like Money
You can construct this as an advantage for Konami, but if they don't want to heavily support two ongoing formats at the same time, the price of the game can become a major issue. The current price of the game wouldn't be going anywhere. If Kashtira, Purrely and VS are any indicators, just because cards are new and being opened a lot doesn't mean they'll be cheap. Now add on that you can only play these cards for all of 3 years maximum before you have to invest all over again into another deck core as well as all of this new format's staples. This could be one of the reasons why Standard in Magic The Gathering died out, alongside WOTC removing the primary incentive to play Standard in the first place.
Oops! Legacy Support!
This is probably the biggest physical hurdle that needs to be jumped if we want Set Rotation to be a thing. A huge amount of Konami's current product is the printing of support for archetypes much, much older than 3 years in order to push it into meta viability. This would, simply put, not be able to exist in a rotating format. A common counterpoint thrown around is that whenever Konami prints legacy support, they can just announce that the archetype its for is now in the Standard rotation!
There are many problems with this.
Firstly, this would probably be the nail in the coffin for TCG and OCG never being able to unify as formats. And the stick in the mud is VJump Promos. Every VJump magazine, the OCG prints a mechanically exclusive card into it, usually one that supports an archetype. If this would bring it into the Standard rotation, all of a sudden we have one format that has Sky Striker legal, and one that doesn't. Secondly, some archetypes are just too old or too big to be reprinted. If CYAC were to release with this Standard format in mind, we would be seeing a TON of old-ass Superheavy Samurai cards shooting up in price, cards in sets now out of print, so Konami wouldn't even be making any money off of those purchases. And if Konami were to, say, print the archetypes the new cards are supporting in some of of supplementary set, not only does that have the possibility to bring product fatigue, do you really want the entire HERO and Blackwing archetype again?
Simply Overhaul Your Game
This is another point in Konami just not being competent or trustworthy enough to pull something like this off. Set Rotation could be implemented, IF Konami heavily supports alt formats, IF Konami decides to overhaul their entire product design, IF Konami is willing to curb their powercreep, and IF Konami even wants to take this major, major risk in the first place. That's a lot of big ifs towards a company that can't even livestream their events half the time, and a company that made fucking Metal Gear Survive.
Other, Healthier Solutions
Many of the pro-rotation players argue that this is the way to solve Yu-Gi-Oh's, admittedly, large, Powercreep problem. I argue that there are other ways to solve this. Ones that aren't as large of risks for Konami, ones that don't overhaul the game as we know it, and ones that can reliably provide a good break from current Yu-Gi-Oh!, which is realistically what we all want.
Pretty much the only alternative formats Konami is willing to pour some attention to are Speed Duels and Time Wizard. GOAT and Edison appear to be doing the best out of the legacy formats we have, and Konami has even shown some interest in it with Hidden Arsenal Chapter 1, a set that printed a whole bunch of Edison cards and even gave us an un-errata for Armory Arm. All it takes is one or two sets to make either one of these formats a budget friendly option, and Konami can just sit back and not need to use that brain of theirs. A non-rotating, static format that you can always fall back on to have a good time when current Yu-Gi-Oh! is getting bothersome on you. Speed Duels are doing quite well, with Konami opting for single boxes, DUDE style, instead of the traditional booster pack format, and they once again give players a nice refresher when they're tired of getting Zone-locked for 9 or getting Kaiju'd for the tenth game in a row.
I hope that I've reasonably laid out my reasoning as to why Set Rotation, while having good intentions, is reasonably, and practically not possible for Konami to implement in this day and age.
TLDR: Set Rotation helps for Powercreep and making good formats, but IMO ignores 25 years of history, Konami's refusal towards alt formats, cost, and product design. GOAT/Edison or Speed Duels are probably better for something like this.

2023.06.02 09:30 Emma_Jane_85 The anger phase of grief

Hey all. I had a missed miscarriage at just over 12 weeks, and a D&C about a month ago. I’ve just recently started on my first period since my loss and I’m feeling so angry. It was my first pregnancy and we found out we would be having a little girl.
I’m just feeling so angry and bitter about it all, and how unfair it is that I’m not pregnant anymore. My partner is supportive but there’s a great sense that things should be going back to ‘normal’ and I’m just stuck on how unfair this all feels and trying to move through it.
Not really in need of any advice, I think I can recognise where I’m at and I’m trying but these feelings of anger, feeling like it’s unfair and just being so disappointed and sad are a struggle. Sending my love to anyone at the same place right now xx
