You could contact universal credit, explain your circumstances and see if they can provide an advance payment or a loan? It’s worth a shot at least. Definitely call them rather than writing in your journal as you’ll have a better chance to explain your circumstances x

Or try and find a food bank local to you? Absolutely no shame in using them, we all struggle sometimes and you’ve got to do what you’ve got to do at the end of the day x

I know the feeling! I normally work around 35hrs a week but I’m now on maternity leave. I knew pay was terrible on maternity leave but I forgot know it was this bad. Giving kids nutritional meals costs so much, their clothing costs so much even secondhand/charity shops. I really dread looking in my account x

Hot take

When someone points out that sometimes birth control fails and the response is “then don’t have sex” I assume that person has a lackluster sex life. 🤷‍♀️

Vaginal odour

Its been 2 years now of me struggling with this disgustimg fishy smell down there. It goes away for like five minutes after a shower and then it comes back and no matter how many underwear I change in a day or don't wear at all. I still smell the smug get into my clothes, causing me to run out of clothes and shower like four times a day I have been to my guy now multiple times have been tested for BV multiple times all coming back negative I am not sure what to do as this is not only affecting me, but it's also affecting my mental health and my sex life. If anybody knows what I should do please help.

WFH jobs

I’m sure this has been asked a million times but I’m desperate. My BD kicked me out and I’m staying with my family in a different state (against our parenting plan) until I can get an income. I was a hairdresser before. I need help!!

Whats wrong with me...

Basically my fella has this female friend that he's close they see each other everyday. I am close to her too but not as close... In all honesty i distance myself because I've never being a very social people like they are. I don't mind having friends but not the type of person to spend every single day together... Is that a bad thing? I've being called boring and anti social by them both for this and its upsetting me now. I aint being boring i just don't trust her at all.. She's tried stirring stuff between me and my fella .. She constantly brings drama to my house etc ... This is why I've backed off a lot from her.. However my fella still spends everyday around her and her fella...

I give up i just don't know what to do anymore coz every time i do say something my fella is quick enough to jump to her defence.. Apparently shes like a sister to him and im jealous

What do i do?

High sex drive, husband thinks I use it as a tool

I started a new medication and it requires me to be on a specific diet. I actually hate most of the foods I’m allowed to eat, so I’ve been sticking to just white rice and grilled chicken mainly. As a result, I’ve lost a weight and my sex drive has been ridiculous. I’m just always horny and always ready to go. My husband doesn’t want to have ever though, so I asked him why he keeps rejecting me and he said he feels I’m using sex as a tool to manipulate him because I’ve never wanted it this much before. I asked what I’d be manipulating him into and he said he doesn’t know, but it’s just suspicious. I tried to explain I just feel more confident and into it more, but he doesn’t believe me. Now we’re not having sex at all (used to have sex 2X a week on average before). I don’t know what to do.
