Today, I have been home sick and depressed for so long that I just found Oreo crumbs in my belly button. FML

Disgusting

Today, I noticed a disgusting, cheesy smell and spent all day wondering what it was. I later found out that it wasn't coming from my feet, but from my belly button. My surgery wound got infected. I'm a germaphobe. FML

Stupid rule

By mommy - 23/06/2019 02:27

Today, I’ve been violently ill with diarrhea, and have been for past three days. I finally discovered why. It's because I ate a piece of candy off the recently-cleaned floor last week. My immune system is so weak, it can’t respect the 5-second rule. FML

Today, suffering from severe morning sickness followed by cravings for salty food, I had stacked our fridge with yummy snacks. When finally emerging from our bathroom after retching this morning, I found out my husband had eaten all my snacks the night before. FML

Gutsy move

Today, dealing with anxiety and depression, I finally got up the energy to bake. I chose homemade enchiladas. I then spent the whole day walking from the toilet to the nearest couch (and vice versa), feeling like my intestines were going to blow. No more enchiladas for me for a long time. FML

You'd probably feel better if you took a shower and went outside.

I'd like to know what the main problem here is, temporary illness or depression. If you're "depressed" because you've been home with the flu for a week, I'd say it's no biggie. Get cleaned up whenever you feel up to it, and you'll be as good as new. If you're sick with a clinical depression, you really need more help than you can get from Oreos - and having Oreos in your belly-button is definitely not going to help matters. In this case you really need to shower and find a therapist and a psychiatrist. And to those who suggested seeing a doctor to get a prescription for Xanax - No. No Xanax. Xanax is a benzodiazepine, it's supposed to be prescribed for severe acute anxiety, it's very addictive and works as a sedative as well. It should not be taken regularly to treat depression and mild to moderate sleep disturbances. Doctors are over-prescribing this drug to an absurd degree, and it's not helping anyone.

Today, my brother showed my wife a Craigslist ad by someone seeking casual sex. It had very specific details that made it seem like I wrote it. My brother later admitted in private that he made the post as revenge for me not loaning him $500 last month. Meanwhile, my wife still thinks I'm unfaithful. FML
