Guess what. A few years ago I got diabetes type 1. So I got used to it but my mom is over reacting a lot. My dad knows I’m grown up so he doesn’t baby me about it. But they have been arguing lately and I just found out that they are getting divorced! 😭 And my dad is moving to ENGLAND! He grew up there but we live in NEW YORK!
I’m so sorry Sweetiepaw, I don’t even know what to say❤️ maybe you can talk to them about the divorce and see if they can work it out? *huggles* Stay strong
I’m so sorry, Sweetie. It may seem like the end of the world right now, but it will get better. You can still talk with your dad, and probably spend some time with him in England in the summers if it works out that way! I don’t know anything about my parents being divorced, I luckily haven’t gone through it, but I have a cousin and a best friend who’s parents are divorced. You’ll be ok, they’re both amazing people, so you’ll be ok. Just push through this, and know that your dad isn’t leaving because of you, he probably doesn’t want to leave you at all.
*hugs*
Hang in there.
Yes, that was you I just ateAw, I’m sorry Sweetie. I don’t really have any good advice except to stay strong! *Hugs*

Mario: Itsa me! Mario! Me: NO![WARNING: WOMAN’S PERIOD TALK]
Having period pains and gagging while trying to cough up bile isn’t fun at all.
[END OF TALK.]
Why won’t you play the game?Plume, let’s suffer together, shall we?
Sokeefe all the wayClo and plume i shall suffer with you both. I’m having bad cramps right now but I’ve never thrown up. I hope you feel better soon. ❤️
Join the rebels!Ugh, periods are a drag. I’ve never puked before but cramps suck. Can you take any medicine to help with your cramps? Or a heating pad from your stomach/back? COOKIES!🍪 and ice cream to you!🍦
*huggles* Hope you feel better!
Plume, I shall join the suffering with you all. I AM SO SORRY. JUST ROLEPLAY IN YOUR MIND THAT EVERYTHING IS SO MUCH BETTER, I HAVE NEVER TRIED IT, BUT MAYBE YOU WILL FEEL BETTER?
Yes, that was you I just ateOof, sorry!
That man is playing Galaga!I’m sorry! *Hugs!*
Nightshade Furbottom O'ChanterUgh period´s are the worst. I have had that too, and they suck. Maybe you could search up like some medicine that could help you? Or something else that could help you? I am so sorry you are having this. *huggles* Hope you feel better soon!
OoF FrOm YOuR FeLLOw NeRDI never get cramps when I have my period, or throw up. It just goes smoothly. I inherited it from my mother. 😛
Lucky me I guess 😛Sometimes I wish my mom didn’t work from home.
If she had an office job, she wouldn’t be working right now. If she wasn’t working right now, we would spend more time together.
I’m scared of getting older, because then I have to eventually move out and live on my own. I’m so scared I won’t get to do enough with her.
Please help.
SrizelFTWWell, Peb, think about if she was at work, it would take longer for her to get home, and you would see her less. She would have to go and leave in the morning, and come back late. You get to see her at home! She might be distracted, but she still is there. But, what if she went to the office? You would have less time together. 🙁 So, start doing stuff with her with the time you do have with her! When the time comes to move out, you’ll be ready!
*hugs*
Yes, that was you I just ateActually, that’s a really good point.
Thank you Crooked <33
SrizelFTWI understand. I’m TOTALLY scared of moving out eventually and being an adult. But y’know What? It eventually just naturally comes if you think about it.
When you were little, I’m sure you were scared to ride a bike or you didn’t know how to walk when you were a baby. But you naturally just started walking. Things come naturally as life moves on🤷🏽♀️
And as you grow to that age, you’ll learn more stuff that’ll help you when you’re older😊
*huggles*
Thank you Blossom! <3
SrizelFTWMe and my mom have a horrid relationship so I wont be any help. *Huggles*
OoF FrOm YOuR FeLLOw NeRDI have now just realized that because of all this stuff with my mom that has happened, whenever my dad changes his tone of voice or asks a question, I instinctively start frantically apologize and have a panic attack, even though 10 out of 10 of these situations end up with me not getting in trouble at all. And for some reason I also am instinctively procrastinating on telling my dad about everything, I have talked to him about my mom before (like a week ago) but have barely scratched the surface of this 2 ton block of steel. Any advice?
Try me, Beyoncé.Bramble, oh, that is horrible. I’m so sorry. I get panicked when my Dad raises his voice, also. He used to be mildly bad, but then my Mom yells at him, so…he’s gotten better I guess. But, I’m just telling you this because I get it. Learn that no harm can come from a voice. It’s just a tone. When you feel yourself panicking, remind yourself that it’s just your dad. Close your eyes, and breathe. It will take time for your mind to heal. But, your Dad will understand. It’s alright, Bramble. It’s alright to feel like this sometimes with your dad, don’t feel guilty.
*hugs*
<333
Yes, that was you I just ateThanks! It’s not anything against my dad, it’s just when you are stuck with a mom who sometimes makes you feel worthless for three months you are going to have some issues 😛
Try me, Beyoncé.Oh my goodness, I am the same. Whenever my parents are talking and I can’t hear what they are saying I assume I am getting into trouble. ❤
Bri ❤Aw, I’m sorry Bramble! I have a hard time approaching people about my emotions too. Talking to your mom was a good start. Maybe try talking about it with your mom if you have a really bad panic attack. Sometimes I just tell my dog (or cat or any pet) how I feel and it helps me get it off my chest!
*Hugs x 10000000000000000000*
Nightshade Furbottom O'Chanteruhm so a few days ago someone figured out who i likeddd and since its another person of the same gender and we dont really have any homosexual people in our year/grade yet, they’re sort of all, lets put it the nice way, interested. like i mean i dont really like people looking at my life and saying “oh they’re different, lets try figure out everything different about them,” and thats what ive been feeling like lately. about 20 minutes ago as im writing this, i found a message sent to me by an unknown number. and it scares me. the message is “Hi I was told to tell you that someone’s likes you . If you want the first letter of their name reply”. i, i mean like i name every single one of the phone numbers that i have so i know who all of them are, and who is this person? how’d they get my number? and when? like what the heck, i dont even know who you are, who told you to do this, are you lying to me? sometimes i wish everyone left me alone so i could just deal with my problems without other people getting in the way. i feel like im angry at them, the person who sent me that message, and probably mostly myself really. what is wrong with me……
open a window you're too hotFirst of all, I would recommend that you do not reply to this number. While it could be this overly interested person, it could also be a complete stranger spamming people’s numbers with this generic comment in order to get something from them.
I’m not particularly good at advice, but I’m sorry you’re going through this. *hugs and cookes* <33333333333333333
bow to "earthling" overlordsDON’T ANSWER THAT NUMBER! And I’m bi. And there’s no one in my grade like that. There’s nothing wrong.
Leave Love Eat Doritos!So um… I think I may have some mental health issues… so, um, yeah…
Try me, Beyoncé.*huggles* I’m so sorry Bramble…
I suggest looking up what to do for your mental health when it feels like it’s failing. There are helpful things out there. <33 I'm sorry I don't have more advice. :(( *hugs*
SrizelFTWSo, I’ve been having several problems. I don’t know if to be Bi or Straight. I need help.
Sometimes I find girls more attractive than boys, and sometimes is different.
No one of my family is like that. And I feel scared of asking them. What if they don’t accept me?
Leave Love Eat Doritos!Aw, it’s okay to feel confused! I think your family will except you just the way you are and if they don’t, you will always be excepted here!
*Huggles!!!*
Nightshade Furbottom O'ChanterThanks,
Leave Love Eat Doritos!I’m feeling very overwhelmed right now. It seems like the whole world is falling apart, but especially the US. So many people are getting sick from COVID-19 and dying… one of my cousins got it and even though I don’t see him very often it’s still scary knowing that someone in my family has the virus. But so many people just don’t care. And many of them are supposed to be our leaders! They think we should just deal with it or whatever, but if we could all stay home or wear masks when we go out, the pandemic wouldn’t be as bad. It makes me upset that people want to act like it’s no big deal. It’s really insensitive to the people who have died and their families. Plus, the US also has a lot of unrest right now. I know I can’t just make all the problems go away, but I feel like I’m not doing enough to help. All I can do is post on social media and try to keep myself and others educated. Yet there is so much fighting even online. Some people even make fun of the issues and spread conspiracy theories. It makes me want to just take a break from it all. I just wish that people would grow up and wear a mask, and also not be racist, sexist, homophobic, or transphobic. Most kids/teens can be accepting of each other, so why can’t the adults? I wish covid and hatred would just disappear and I could see my friends again. But that won’t happen anytime soon, and I’m terrified for the future.
be the light inside a stormStormlight, Thank you for saying this! I wish people stopped hating each other!
Join the rebels!I agree! This is a sad time 🙁
Mario: Itsa me! Mario! Me: NO!A lil’ update c: my dad’s test came back negative, and so far out of the 25 people at his work who have gotten their results back already 22 came back negative.
Extraterrestrial Earthworm<3333
bow to "earthling" overlordsThat’s good!
Mario: Itsa me! Mario! Me: NO!I was about to share something but after reading replies to other comments poof my worries about it are gone!
As my mom says, words speak louder than you give them credit for. ( I think that’s what she said.)
