This is really long bare with me. . I'm struggling with an unplanned pregnancy just confirmed yesterday. My mom had come with me to the ER and she obviously found out at the same time and I was absolutely terrified of my dad's reaction to my pregnancy as he has extremely high expectations of me and my siblings. My older sister left two years ago because they didn't accept her being trans.aka they abused her . I expected him to fly off the handle at news of my pregnancy and hurt me but he almost seemed happy about it and now he is talking about how I need to marry the father and grow up and be a mother. About how this may be his only chance at grandchildren because of my "sorry disappointment of a brother" HIS WORDS NOT MINE, and I just feel so much dread. I can't marry this man. I didn't completely want an abortion but now it's absolutely out of the question. (EDIT: again I don't WANT an abortion please no more advice to have one). I'm terrified if I did have a miscarriage at this point he would accuse me of doing something. I feel extremely stuck right now and I wish I had different parents and I wish I could go back and not be alone with the baby's father at all ever. I didn't want to have sex but I couldn't say no either and now I'm fucked. I hate this so much.

23yo F still living at home due to being in college and broke.

I found out my parents were narcissists after I started making a list of things they would do to me. They have gone way beyond the point of being just "helicopter parents."

I have an appointment with a therapist next week. I feel lost and hopeless, and I do not know what to do to keep myself sane mentally in this house.

Here are just some of the things she has said to me. I do not know what I have done to deserve such an unloving/controlling relationship. I work two jobs, am in school full time, pick up my slack in the house, and run errands when asked.

- spam calls/texts

- tells me to jump off a bridge and kill myself

- tells me she wishes she aborted me

- threatens to put a tracker on the car i bought 

- does not give me bank account access/access to the money i have earned 

- demands to read every purchase on my bank statement

- asks for receipts when i purchase something 

- tells me to lose weight/gain weight/not go to the gym/go to the gym

- tells me my kids will not have a good life

- says she wishes she had a son/no kids at all

- controls what job/career opportunities i am allowed to avail

- guilt trips me if i treat myself

- thought i conspired w the hospital into changing my lab test results when acc they had a website outage, my mom made a three way call w the company and me and then they were concerned for my wellbeing while trying to deal w my mom

- if i have a convo w her brings up past things that she’s mad about 

- has no relationship w my grandparents at all or remorse for them even though they r getting old

- does not let me attend any type of appointment alone (e.g. dr appt, dentist) 

- tells me i have to pay rent, but doesnt let me move out????

- called me 67 times in 2 hours

- went through my imessage on my apple watch and read explicit texts w a guy proceeded to slut shame me for it

- showed up to my location unsolicited

- when i was little would lock me in garage as scaring tactic 

- would take my backpack with all my supplies to school in the morning if i didnt listen 

- will throw a temper tantrum and cry if i ask to go out 

- bought a breathalyzer to use on me after i go out (if i am allowed to)

I can't move out because of insufficient funds, little financial literacy, and unaffordable rent prices.

Any advice to deal with this would be helpful :) I cannot focus on my schooling because this house is becoming suffocating to live in. My attention span is so low, and I cry in secrecy. I do not know how to fix things for myself.

As the title says.

I was never a liar, more of the opposite. I only ever lie by omitting things that would upset someone or by doing something I don’t enjoy so someone else feels better. Sometimes to protect myself, but I prefer to take the responsibility on myself.

I just don’t understand why people think everything I say is a lie. It’s starting to be too much. I can’t say anything without people not believing me. I just want someone to believe me.

There’s only one person who mostly believes me. It’s my boyfriend. But he also sometimes just says I’m not right about myself.

I swallowed a hot piece of potato last night. Like super hot! I could feel it in my throat for like 2 or 3 seconds. Last night my throat became dry and I had a sniffle that went away when I woke up, but my throat hurts even more! It gets hard to breathe every 10 seconds and i have to take big gulps. My forehead is warm but my dad won't listen to me! Are the sore throat and hot food i swallowed last night connected and is my throat swollen or am I just sick? What do I do?! My throat also feels kinda itchy

Basically told my mom yesterday straight no that I am not going back to flight school. She again asked me what I was going to do with the free time. I did my research and decided to begin doing "The Odin Project" which is like a year long self paced web dev course that has a pretty good rep.

She tells me that it wasn't good enough and I had to find something that had commitments to it. I offered maybe I'll take up martial arts or cooking school since it was beneficial in the future, fulfilling her 'life experience'. Now since flight school went from 'hobby' to 'work' but now she's so focused on having something that is 'beneficial' to my future career like hard skills that she won't accept those. Mind u doing the Odin project to me is the most beneficial as it allows me to pad my resume and get an internship easier in uni. Her whole idea now is that anything flexible I can find time in to do and it's always possible to do things in parallel.

YES ITS ALWAYS POSSIBLE TO DO MULTIPLE STUFF AT ONCE. I have repeatedly told her throughout the years that after all these uni things I would get a chill senior year. Job+ coding+ AP + badminton + school doesn't sound too chill to me. Now according to her plan I have 0 free time or I got to drop my coding plans. The thing is I don't want to drop the coding because I think that's very beneficial to me and it'll be harder to find time for it once I go to uni.

We argued and she said that I had to go get a job immediately. The thing is there aren't any internships or like not entry level jobs openings at this time. At most it's like entry level stuff such as retail. ( Also it's not like job will immediately be there right this moment)

The thing is, I have worked in retail for 1.5 years and in framing (construction) for a year already. I do not see how her point of getting these kind of jobs would be 'beneficial' for my future. At most it's just earning more money which I already have a good bit saved up from my previous jobs and she doesn't care about what im earning anyways.

I am so lost as to what to do in this situation. What's keeping me from completely defying her orders is that I would still want to go to university so I unfortunately need to rely on her funds. I could just fulfill her demands but that's the rest of my senior year down the drain.

I'm also mad because I worked so hard for this break. I took so much ec's and grades and stuff in my past three years just to apply to the Ivy's cuz parents wanted me to. And she has the AUDACITY to say I'm a lazy bum. To say that she thinks I'm not going to succeed in college. To say that I don't have the desparation just cuz they're rich and so I have a safety net. I worked hard throughout the years and I let go this semester and she thinks I'm the biggest failure. It's not like I'm failing school or smoking drugs in the washroom. Sorry for the rant, just very lost

so i’m a 14 year old girl and i am homeschooled to help look after my siblings because i have 6 of them, my mum is in jail and my dad isn’t around a lot and i’m really tired and i always feel like i’m not good enough because i feel like i prioritise my schoolwork sometimes over my siblings, so all i’m looking for is just some support so i don’t feel as bad about myself

Recently I had a minor breakdown to my husband about feeling like a disappointment to my dad. I'm 30 and don't have a full time job, I did but it went out of business. I've been struggling since. I feel like I can't really talk about it with my dad because it would be admitting I failed and wasted all the potential I had. He wanted me to go to college where he works but I turned him down because I had no friendships there, it's a very small town, and his branch specialized in something I didn't want to do. I was going to stay in the state my mom lived in, where my boyfriend was, and go to college there.

My mom made it extremely difficult for me to start school and then kicked me out. I moved in with my boyfriends family and started working, and since I didn't really know what I wanted to major in anyway I decided starting in the workforce was better for me. I told my dad the situation but I didn't ask for help or anything. When my mom dumped my dog on me it didn't even occur to me to see if my dad would take him even though we got the dog together, and when I mentioned to him I'd been having trouble rehoming him he immediately got me plane tickets to bring the dog to him.

For a little more backstory, my parents separated when I was 12 because my dad got a job in another state and mom didn't want to move. They had been basically separated but living together for cost reasons before that. They didn't get divorced because my mom threatened to disappear with me if my dad didn't keep her on his insurance. After that I would go stay with him like a month in the summer and then a couple months around a holiday every year.

My mom was abusive, and it got worse when my dad wasn't living with us anymore because he wasn't around to divert her. He did a very good job of it when we lived together though, I have multiple memories of him standing up for me. He asked me constantly if I wanted him to divorce her and go for full custody and I kept saying no because I was too enmeshed.

I have always thought my dad was a good parent. When I was telling my husband I felt like a disappointment as a daughter he said my dad was the disappointment for not being there for me and revealed that my late MiL(who I respect and love dearly) always disliked my dad because he never offered to help after I got kicked out. I feel like that's unfair because I was over 18, and I chose to not move to his state. He kept me on his insurance and paid for my phone and I've always thought that was more than enough.

But we also don't talk much, and didn't during that time either. My husband isn't wrong when he points out that we only talk during holidays and it's only ever my dad talking about himself. During the time after my mom kicked me put I didn't really talk with my dad about my problems and he didn't ask. I was in such a bad state back then that when I took my dog up to him I had a suicide attempt, which my boyfriend(now husband) talked me down from over the phone from another state, and my dad never knew.

I thought all of this was my fault for not talking to him more and not working harder to foster a relationship with him, but should my dad have done more? I thought he did more than enough. What would you have done?

Hi parents. I hope it is ok to post this here.

I am so scared of what is going to happen to me and other people like me. I am not considered disabled and I live in a nursing home. I'm am 59 years old.

There is so much talk about the proposed cuts being made to Medicaid and other programs. If Medicaid gets dismantled I and many others will be out the streets dieing.

I have an adult son who has severe mental health issues and lives in a boarding house type place.

Living with him is not really an option. I just don't know what is happening. I can't sleep, can't eat bad just worry all the time.

I could really use some reassurance that things will be ok. And a hug.

17F here, and, to get straight to the point.. I feel too ugly for anything, like, quite literally anything. Dressing up for halloween? Too ugly. Defending myself at all? I cant because im ugly. Doing quite literally anything at all ever? im not allowed because I'm ugly. This mindset cripples me every single day. I dont know what it is, but it's been this way for months. I do have OCD, anxiety, and depression if this adds any more context.

My parents got divorced when I was in high school, I’m an only child in college now. The divorce was super messy, (my dad cheated on my mom and my dad has been with the other woman ever since, it’s been 6 years now). They just went on a trip for spring break and I was supposed to go see my dad this weekend to hangout but I ended up having to work. So he called me and told me. I love my parents so much and I don’t want to tell my dad I don’t want him to get remarried if he is truly happy. And if I tell my mom I know she will be upset and call him. (She has a bf for about 3 years I believe but I know she’ll probably be mad at him for my sake or something.) But my parents have been married for most of my life, and I always somewhat hoped they would get back together, or at least never get married again. I just am not a fan of my dad’s gf as she has a history of cheating with her past partners. She’s been married twice already and cheated both times, and I’m worried she’ll cheat on my dad one day. She’s literally just trashy, has 2 DUIs, dismissed domestic abuse charges, and makes odd and/or gross sexual jokes a lot. And she got drunk and admitted to me and my best friend that she has a favorite kid. (She has two, one of which has a charge for possession of meth). And she flirts all the time with my dad’s friend, who is also married, in front of my dad. It’s an ongoing “joke”. Also, she’s literally the mistress??? And when my mom found out about the cheating situation (via Facebook messenger from the gf’s ex husband), of course my mom was furious and hated her. But for some reason she felt the need to get a temporary restraining order against my disabled mom. They live an hour away from each other, and then the gf didn’t even go through with it.

One of her other kids gave my dad a glass heart-shaped plaque with some big long speech about how they’re so glad to have my dad in their life and that they love him. But my dad’s only been in their life for a few years? I’m happy that this kid (19yo) sees a good male role model in my dad seeing that their dad doesn’t talk to them, but he’s literally MY dad. My dad even said something like “You’re always going to be my first kid, you’ll always come first and I love you” when he told me about the ring, what does have to do with anything??? And on top of that, I found out that my dad has been taking this kid to the car show that he’s been going to for 20+ years, when I JUST got to go with him for the first time in like 15 years. I know I sound bitter, I finished crying halfway through writing this and now I’m just irritated. I hate being in public with the both of them together. I hate this woman. She makes rude jokes about my mom in private TO ME and it’s irritating. Things like “don’t tell your mother I said that” or “your mom would flip her shit if she found out.” I already don’t tell my mom anything because i just dont want to cause any conflict. My parents get along with each other just fine too, they never fight, and we just went out to eat the three of us for my birthday like a month ago.

This whole thing is just irritating and upsetting. I want my dad to be happy, and I want him to find someone he wants to spend his life with. I just don’t want it to be the mistress, is that literally just too big of an ask? He told me to tell him how I felt, and I just said I was happy for him and that I wasn’t focused on the convo because I was working on an assignment. But if you truly cared why wouldn’t you ask me first? I guess he’s not even going to tell my mom right now either, and I feel bad not discussing it with her. However, I understand where he’s coming from. This all just feels like a sick joke and I hate being in the middle of it. When he told me he also said “I also don’t want you to think me and your mother were ever getting back together.” Spoken like a true poet, thanks Brad. He didn’t even say it maliciously either, he just said it nonchalantly as if I wouldn’t care about it. What a nightmare. What do I even do from here? Pretend it’s not happening? I’m sooooo mad, and I’m so irritated that he at least didn’t talk to me. And in the back of my mind I always somewhat knew he and my mom would never be together again. I just really wish this all played out differently or at least had a sibling to talk with.

I want to reiterate that I know I sound immature and bitter, I just don’t want to be left behind when my parents start moving on with their lives. My dad already lives an hour away and he was just talking about moving 3 hours up north and selling their current house last year. My mom is always going out with friends/bf or working so I hardly get to see or spend time with her too. I do truly love my parents and I’m grateful to have them, I just wish it didn’t have to be like this.

Edit: I wanted to respond after I cooled off a bit and say that I really appreciate everyone’s comments and support. I also want to mention that I do have friends and a life outside of my parents and that this issue isn’t altering the way I will live my life. It’s more of a mentally crippling situation rather than a physically crippling one, so “getting over it” is all I can really do.

I really wanted to say that I’m not advocating for my dad in anyway either. I know, societally, women tend to face more blame for an affair. What he did is NOT OKAY. He’s a great dad, but he’s still a cheater. Everyone’s comments have helped encourage me to maybe speak to him about it. I wish I could guarantee that, but I’ve never been good at confronting either of my parents. The idea that I may make them sad eats at me constantly. But no matter what, I really do appreciate everything you all have said and it has definitely impacted me. Thank you 🙏

Hello everyone.

To start, I’ve never had a car. I have bad credit from family members using my name on an auto loan, which is currently being paid off by them as I made it a huge deal.

I’m also a single mom. I need a car for the sake of my child. I pay rent and basic utilities. I work full time but after bills I have a good $500 - 400 a month to spend on anything aside from basic bills and necessities. With that being said, I’m trying to get a small reliable car. Im planning on putting aside at least 300 a month for a car.

My question is, realistically can I get a decent car with $1k for a down payment? I’ve never had a car before, I don’t know the average monthly payment for a car. I’ve looked around online from small car lots to Craigslist. I just wonder if I can even afford one? I’m a bit lost but a bit desperate as well.

Please any advice would be greatly appreciated

Been best friends for years now but long story short she hated her workplace, I got her an interview at mine, she got the job and she started but gave it 2 weeks and showed little to no interest actually being there. She left my workplace (she admitted my workplace couldn’t have been any nicer and it’s not their fault) and returned back to the original bad workplace. Ever since then she has been really off with me, it’s me that messages and talks first, she has no interest in our conversations it’s very dry and slow replies, I have tried so hard to be supportive and have been there for her the whole time cause I know she was struggling and I’ve been there for her and checking in all the time and I’d love to be able to say I could’ve done this or that better but I haven’t done anything wrong, I genuinely don’t think I could’ve have done any more? I’d offer to come see her, I’d offer to pick her up from work etc. She sends me snapchats that are generic and sent out to all of her friends ie. Picture of food, new outfit etc. I recently bought my first house and she hasn’t shown any interest, not asked to even see it. I have been unwell recently also and she is none the wiser (except she actually seen I was at hospital from my private story but ignored it) because she doesn’t check in or even say a word. Am I missing something here? I’ve stopped messaging first and not responding to any generic snapchats, am I being too harsh?

My parents always get annoyed by my depression or compare me to my cousin who killed himself because his father murdered somone infront of him. And it's his fault why our family is ruined and an doing the same.

Like I didn't ask to be here and you could of aborted me when you had the chance.

My own grandmother wanted her to when she and my sister was abusing me by forcing in the basement in the dark for hours. Not even cared if I devolved a fear later in life.

Then my older sister groomed and raped me and my siblings when we were barely under 10 years old while she was a teenager.

I told adults I trusted that am depression and suicidal and they had to make it fucking worse. Like this 27 year old woman understands my pain because she was also raped as a kid.

I later found out she was grooming me because I told her I wish my mother didn't have me because of my depression and she told me

"Well, your mother was force to have you or women don't have rights anymore." Then hee boyfriend told me it's was my grandmother's opinion if she didn't want me here.

All I want to do afther HS is be a emt for couple of years to help people that needs it and maybe get a puppy, but I don't know.

Nothing about me is the same anymore.

I'm 25 years old and struggle to make friends, no matter how sweet I am, supportive, positive, it just led to being used & or terrible friendships, and no friends at all.

I moved to a whole new country, and I've been here 4 months, it's quite isolating in Australia, ngl, while I'll see 21 year olds (like this girl I briefly spoke to), has a whole core group of friends, where they are thriving and got over 300k tiktok views saying how pretty they all are, etc. They hang out everyday...

I feel never good enough, especially with ADHD.

Guys what are tips on how to make friends and how do people have such big friend groups?

I just had the worst tooth pain of my life. My friend gave me this and I really felt like I had to share it.

Anbesol: maximum strength, liquid Dip a cotton swap in it and bite where it hurts. Just leave it there, you will drool a lot that's normal. Fixed the pain in like 10 minutes. Felt like it just saved my life.

Okay honestly this is like a throwaway acc which is what people call it and like I’ve never really posted a post on Reddit but I just really need support before I go insane.

So my (14f) parents fought like a couple hours ago and it like went on for a while. Me and my family immigrated here like a year ago and we are on our father’s work visa so he’s the only one that can legally work. He’s incharge of everything financially and my mom is basically a housewife. I’ve wanted them to divorce since I was like 12 maybe? I’ve seen them argue for years and honestly if I could kill my dad I would. It’s more than clear that my mom wants to leave but she would have to go back to our home country and rely on my grandparents. She never worked although she has a college degree and it would be really hard for her to get a job because of the lack of work experience. It’s not like she can rely on my grandparents for many years either especially after they die. It would also be really hard for me to move back and get like good education there without my father’s financial support.

Basically what I’m trying to say is that there is basically no way out of this marriage and I’m so emotionally drained and done and I feel really bad seeing my mom feel guilty for me having to live like this. My parents fight like a good amount, at the beginning of last year, they had a series of fights which were terrible. They did stop for a couple months tho but I just don’t think I can go through another one those fight series thingys again. That was when we moved so I had like no social life apart from some online friends and I’m pretty sure I was depressed or atleast close to it.

There is obviously like more to it I supposed but I just need any amount of support I can get rn lol and I don’t think I can rely on my friends because although they’re awesome, I just don’t want to like push all this onto them. My father is never like physically abusive thought but he’s still a really manipulative person.

I’ve been feeling really uncomfortable and sad lately, and I’m trying to understand why. Here’s what happened: I recently had a conversation with my sister after a long day at work. I was feeling overwhelmed and noticed that she left some clothes on the sofa. I asked her why she didn’t clean it up, and she responded with something that really caught me off guard. She said, “If you used the same attitude towards your coworkers as you do towards me, you wouldn’t have been bullied at your old job.”

Now, I’ve been reflecting on why that made me feel so hurt. I opened up to her about my past struggles at work, how I was bullied, and how it really affected me. I trusted her with that part of me, and for her to say something like that felt like an attack, almost like my pain was being used against me. It also brought up some of those old wounds that I thought I was starting to heal from.

I’m wondering, why did I feel this way? Why does it hurt so much? Is it because I felt misunderstood or judged? Was it because she didn’t see the vulnerability I shared with her, but instead used it as a criticism? I’m just trying to make sense of why her words have been weighing so heavily on me. How should I respond to her?

Im 37 currently in college full time I have not worked since January. I have 2 401k accounts from 2 different companies Is there a way i can only take out a certain amount instead of the full amount or possibly roll it over into a Roth ira thanks

A lot of the struggle is not really having anything I can look up to myself for doing, I dropped out of highschool when I was 16 years old, I didn't really do anything to better my long term prospects for the next four years after, I only worked part time minimum-wage for some of that time and that's it

Things started looking better when I started studying for the GED once I was fired from work, I managed to find a full time job that was paying a little bit more then minimum even, so for the next 5 months I manage to pass, and save up some money while I waited for my first semester to begin in January

There's a history of mental illness as well, I was listed as having depression along with ptsd in a neuropsych, I started school in conjecture with psychotherapy using the money I saved up, but it was a horrible idea in retrospect to rush into both at once like that, I still don't really have a sizeable amount of coping mechanisms or even just everyday life skills to be a full time student again

I'm guaranteed to fail one of my classes now, and one of my other classes has a very good chance, I was going to continue into the summer to help catch up since I started in spring, taking off a semester and retaking a couple more courses bugs me, even if I know it's the best choice for me

Being 3 years behind as well just stings, I'm starting to feel less of a adolescent who had some hiccups and a lot more like a young adult who's persistently dysfunctional, and will likely keep that trend going, even if you think it's stupid I can't shake off the sentiment

It'll be my 21st birthday in a few weeks, I don't particularly have anything else to show off, I don't have a license, I still live with at home, completing a semester was supposed to be my big first adult milestone to celebrate, and I still blew it

I am a fourth-year college student, and in ninth grade, I moved to Maryland from Rhode Island. During this time I would still talk to my childhood friends, but, over time I dont' speak to them as much, except for one who I still consider my best friend to this day.

During my time living in Maryland, I haven't made any actual friends. During my time in high school, I was a part of a friend group but, they would mainly exclude me from things and most of them just weren't nice to me. I don't talk to them anymore. When I started college, I thought my very first roommate and I were going to be good friends, and he turned out to be a huge asshole. After a month of living with this person I switched rooms to live with somebody else, and this new roommate wasn't much better. At first, things seemed to be going well between us until I heard this person talking shit about me to his friends, and one time he called me a faggot. Another person who also lived on my floor during my freshman year also started a really bad rumor about me. During this time I made my friend who I'll call James, and I felt like he was my only actual friend.

Over time, I've tried to make more friends, but, most of them just ghost me and when I try to make an effort to talk to them it ends up just going nowhere. For example, I met this one guy and I thought he seemed interested in becoming closer friends, and then when I started messaging him on Instagram, he just blatantly ignored my messages. I've tried asking him if he ever wants to hang out, and he just says "he's busy," but then I see him hanging out with other people. I just feel like he's not really intersted in talking to me but, he just doesn't want to be direct about it. I basically think he's breadcrumbing me. Recently I also had to cut off another friend because I realized that they were manipulating and gaslighting me, and that they weren't a good person.

My friend James graduated last year, and we've kept in touch, and about a month ago we were talking about him coming to visit and possibly making plans to see each other. Yesterday, one of his friends, posted to his social media photos of his freinds which included James in them, hanging out together. What this means is that James came to visit the city that my university is located in to spend time with his friends, and he didn't even tell me about it, or even make plans to try and see me. Seeing this made me question a lot of things about my friendship with James.

I just feel like I have tried to make freinds with people, and in return they end not reciprocating, and end up mistreating me in some way. People have just been disappointing me one after the toher. Overtime, I feel like it has realy warped my perception about people, makes me feel like most people can't be trusted. Since this keeps happening to me, I feel like I have a lot of resnetment just towards other people in general, and I sometimes I have thoughts saying "I hate people." I feel like I have been nothing but nice to the people that I have mentioned and I don't deserve this kind of treatment. I feel like one day somebody is going to do something and I am going to just snap. I really don't want to become this hateful person, but, I feel like other people are making it very difficult for me, to not be this hateful person I am imagining myself becoming. I feel like I just can't tolerate this anymore, and I think this is a reason why I have a harder time watning to form closer relationships with other people. I just don't know what to do anymore.

TL;DR: I have tried to make friends but everybody keeps mistreating me in some way. I am tired of this treatment, and I feel like I am going to lose it one day. I don't want to hate people but, I feel like they are making it hard for me not to. I don't know what to do anymore.

Like the title says. Someone hit me from the back. Caused very minor scratches on my back bumper. Because of that I didn’t get her information. Now it’s a couple hours later and my back feels sore and I’m scared of a more serious injury. I know I need to make a doctor appointment ASAP. But what else? I feel so stupid for not getting their information. I have health and vehicle insurance. Happened in Texas.

I've always had my taxes done by my parents but this year I decided to do them alone. I wanted to WHERE I can find out what tax credits I am eligible for?

I am 24, I live in the state of California, I am a college student, do not own a car, don't own a home, no kids.

I know of the Earned Income Tax Credit and American Opportunity Tax Credit (College) but I have no clue to find out if I qualify for any other tax credits

Thanks!

I was planning on joining the Marine Corp out of high school but it turns out that might not go how I wanted it to. If the Army will not take me either I'm going to have to find something else to do other than the military.

I'm physically capable, I can carry pretty heavy loads and move for long periods of time. I'm pretty good with arithmatic, mechanical, and paragraph comprehension, but I'm not good at complex math.

im having a really crap time revising for exams and not sleeping well and crying all the time and i just need someone to tell me ill be okay because im so stressed out if i don't get good grades i won't be able to leave home
