Yeah, I'm going to get it checked out this morning before I go to work. Luckily, I don't think it's gotten too much worse overnight.

What is happening here did you get black eyebrows too lol https://www.reddit.com/r/polls/comments/z4gb7f/how_should_i_deal_with_my_black_eye_at_work_today/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf

You’d be smart to have that checked out by a medical professional. That’s a tough spot: anything that close to the eye is concerning. You could have an orbital fracture in there, given how swollen it is and how fast it swelled up. Given that it could affect the health of your eye, I’d strongly suggest erring on the side of caution.

Pissed is an understatement. If I was that girl I would've beaten the daylights out of you. The torture we females go through to get it put in.. the cramping that puts you in the fetal position, the bleeding for 2+ weeks to months.. not to mention the feeling of the metal tools being shoved pretty uncaring into your cervix and uterus with ZERO pain medication.. Ugh.

HA! I feel your pain. A bunch of years ago I was crouching down when a frozen turkey slipped from my brother’s hands right onto my face when I looked up. Broke my nose and now I have a deviated septum. Apparently there is a medical code for being struck by a turkey. Thanks bro!

Why didn't you know that? Holy shit, I would have been so goddamn mad you and probably would've broken up with you over this, since you know nearly nothing about birth control whereas she suffers through it

Mostly. It didn't end up too ruined and we still had plenty for dinner. I think we have a lot less for left-overs, though

Well, I've already seen blue, red, and purple. When do you think I'll see orange, yellow, and green?

Was the turkey still intact? It seems like you could just rinse off the outside. Turkeys are big AF. Seems like there would still be some meat on the inside of that badboy that would still be good.

You'll remember and laugh about this for decades.
For our first Thanksgiving after we married, we were too broke for turkey, so I bought a whole canned chicken. I heated it still sealed in the can until it bulged, so when I punctured the can, broth and steam sprayed all over the kitchen, on the ceiling and window and appliances. When I finally took the lid off, the chicken was dry as paper in a little pile in the bottom of the can, more bones than chicken.
We still laugh about it after 57 years.

Reply to TIFU by bleaching my hair by ConfidentBirthday523
Coming from someone who basically did this to my own hair years back, you could always order a wig off Amazon or something. It's gonna take awhile for your hair to get healthy & get its color back & a wig will save you much time & hassle! I've been wearing wigs ever since then & hardly anybody ever asks if it's real. They're usually no more than $20-$30 & there's so many options! Just a thought. Good luck! ♡

Just own it. You'll spend years worrying about trying to change someone's mind. If you get approached say, if you believe that bs, then you are immature and don't know me. Unless you are. Either way it doesn't matter. Everyone can feel a sertain way individually and that's OK. No one is extra special

Go ask your mom to take you. To be blunt, It's not an "apology" kind of thing. You don't say "oh sorry for dumping all this depression on you". Or, maybe you do, but it takes more than that.
You can explain better how you felt; if/when you apologize, explain that yes, you do see the world that way but it isn't by choice; you feel stuck in that rut, that life means nothing and you can't get out which only furthers that sense of helplessness.
Most importantly, one thing isn't hopeless, sad, or terrible for you and that is your mother. You didn't mean to hurt her, you blurted how terrible you felt in a big rush, she wasn't prepared- and nobody would be- and now she doesn't even know what to do.
She tried to help you, and from her view you slapped it out of her hand and crushed it under your foot. She can't actually do anything if you don't want the help. If they gave you medications, maybe you wouldn't take them anyways- or worse.
That being said, if you show her that she means something to you and that you genuinely want the help, because you don't want to hurt her like this, she'll probably take you.
She might get upset at you or angry at you but again, I think you can guess why. It wasn't about winning the argument and you know it, the basics of the situation was:
>"Hey, I think we need to go to a doctor's-"
>"Why should I? Life is bleak, nothing will change, it's all hopeless, we'll just die no matter what, I'm not doing shit."
>"......'
Would YOU want to help someone who threw your help into a shit puddle?? I don't think you would, but you did realize you fucked up and that's better than most people, just be prepared because I'm sure this will take a couple heart to heart discussions.
TL:DR: Go ask your mom to take you to the doctor. Show her you care, show her you realized how much you hurt her and hated it. This is a lot for her to process so it won't be super easy to heal or mend, but keep trying for both your sakes.

He has enough people telling him that. He knows that he did something wrong.
What I think is shitty is that he goes on r/tifu and writes “I won an argument with my mom” while looking for advice. Wtf?!
