    I have gastroparesis and hypopituitarism, so I've been pepetually hypo-all the things since infancy:dance2: And thus, why my nickname is hummingbird: I'm small, peppy, need sugar water for survival, and I have brightly colored feathers to attract mates. I also get pissed off and try to stab people with my beak...kidding! 90% kidding!

    It's great until you feel like you are everyone's Grinch they have no appreciation for like "you have to do this" <y7 wife will ask me to go somewhere everyday then ask me why my earnings are down. Or turn it into how I don't make enough and need to do something else...

    I feel like if a hummingbird ever tried to stab me I would have a hard time not just forgiving it. They are so damn cute

    You can do it w/ "real" food too ofc. To each his own, but it works way better for me to know what I'm getting is what I want without having to do PITA daily logs.

    Bad approach if you think [x] thing is causing [y] problem though, don't know the specifics, but offering an alt approach because I fucking hate logging even w/ apps to ease the process so would go full on book burning with a journal :emoji_joy:

    I know how ya feel. Sometimes I feel like I'm just conditioning myself to work my ass off and not expect any praise, reward, or respite. Life sucks sometimes. All I can say is things can always turn around, and a lot of times they do when you least expect it.

    My favorite is when I work longer or put in more to not hear that then I get Grinched at for "not wanting to spend time with the family" it's like wtf do you want from me?

    Catch-22, one of my favorite cynical books of all time lol. I am constantly trying to internalize the fact that in this life you will often be damned if you do and damned if you don't.

    Thanks!

    For me, it tends to be more when I've accidentally said something harsh or whatnot and the other person gets offended and I need to simmer them down. lol

    Complain about barely making $200/week then brag all day when you get a decent closed qual when you know good and darn well you're going to be complaining about $200 weeks when it dries up again. There. That's the secret. Hope I helped.

    The only type of person who would say this is a person who has never instantly loaded up /r/tippytaps after pissing off their SO.

    Or Hitler's wife. Because if an adorbs baby penguin slipping on ice doesn't melt their angry heart they're literally Hitler.

    Ah yes, the classic emotional rollercoaster that is doing AMT for a living. I don't know which is more fun/worse, that or trading cryptocurrencies.
