She was there first, and as she approached the booth to start taking pics, the other people run over and got in the booth so she could not get her pics. They said they would just be taking 1 picture and would be finished, and apparently they took a really long time to take that one photo, so it seems clear that they were deliberately blocking the dancer from using the booth. Then, when they got their 1 picture, and the dancer came to get photos, the people decided they needed ANOTHER picture, and were trying to block the dancer again, for another 10 minutes no doubt, and the dancer just had had enough and started getting her pictures, and that's the other people complaining about not getting their other 10-min picture.

After being on the meds for about a year, I recognized that I felt better than I had in years. The medication is basically an anti-depressant so I apparently had that going on too. I will not go off this medication unless it starts causing problems. Better living through chemistry. Sometimes it IS necessary.

As someone (I’m 71) with bipolar disorder I know it can’t be cured just treated. It’s a life long disorder. Most meds are prescribed “off brand” and are not designed for bipolar. They also have terrible side effects. I have found EMDR therapy has worked the best at calming down bipolar and I have more control. I hope this mother realizes and accepts her diagnosis. It’s the first step to getting better.

The 3rd last story about the time Karen calling the police on that boy who was cursing at the skate park, it reminded me of something . When I was a teacher I went to the mall to meet someone. Found a bunch of my students near the food court who were occupying a big table and being your average hooligan! I heard everything most of what they were saying to passers by would not be tolerated. I went about my day. On Monday after school I get called to the principals office. The principal was trying to chew me out for not reprimanding the students at the mall for their behaviour. I fought back and that I was not on the clock by the school, it was my time. Also the parents were there so why didn’t do their job? I reminded the principal that every time a parent wants to discipline their child and can’t should we as teachers go and do their jobs? And if so is the school going to be paying us more? The principal was so livid she devised ways to get me fired! 😂 I didn’t even give her that I quit before she could.

[@Raven62]

@@FreedomofSpeech865 she was crazy. The principal of the school was also the director of the school. And it was a private school. She had this weird ideology that all of the children had developmental problems and if they didn’t their home life was the problem. I had a student who was extremely smart. I would say like Sheldon from TBBT, but was emphatic unlike Sheldon. They would not bump him to upper grades because they worried that the average student would get jealous. He was in grade 5 but performing at grade 10. I gave him extra work from other grades to gauge his comprehension skills of the subject starting at grade 6. He flatlined at grade 10. According to school testing he flatlined at grade 7. Why? Because they were scared to give him the following grade. I had another student who couldn’t comprehend at grade 5 level he was functioning at grade 1. His older brother had similar issues. We found out that his older brother felt so pressured the teachers to perform (he was dyslexic and on the spectrum) he tried to unalive himself. The parents wanted both the children to stay back a year or two. Or be taken out of school and taken to a school that had special needs teachers helping them. The school refused. The older child couldn’t take it. He blamed his teachers in his note. The parents had it and removed both the children. The principal fought with them. When the father threatened to bring a lawsuit against her she let them go. Found out months later that there was a legal case against her and her practices. Decided to cut my losses and quit, as I was the teacher for all of these kids and she got it into her head that I was the problem. I was being made out to be a scapegoat for her. Left a month later. It’s been 6 years. And all 3 kiddos are in much better places. The smart one moved to a different school and graduated early and is in university. The other 2 went to special needs school and they are both doing good too. It’s not always the parents that become the issue, sometimes the school system or the power of that system is just corrupt.

Most people who haven't dealt with a dangerously mentally ill relative don't understand that they can and do hurt or kill their own kin. My ex MIL and I both had to move far from our home state of Texas to be safe from her son, my first husband. He murdered my dad in 1996, and threatened his own mother with death because she had testified against him in court prior to the murder, so that we could all get protective orders after he made many threats and committed felonies. We both testified to the Grand Jury in regards to my dad's murder, but the charge was no-billed anyway, even after his own mother provided them with the very threatening letters he sent her, WHILE he was on the run! Because the cops bungled the murder investigation and lost evidence, he was never indicted, so never convicted. His felonies were considered "non-violent", so he's still allowed to carry a gun in Texas, legally! I'm sad that I can never go home again, but most everyone I love there have died, or they hate me because I don't agree with their politics.

I spent 12 years in pretty intense therapy with a very well respected psychiatrist in Victoria BC. My mother was bipolar, and spent most of that time undiagnosed. And like many other people who suffer with undiagnosed mental health issues, my mum self medicated, and she chose alcohol to dull her pain. Those years were horrible for both of us, and mum was institutionalized twice. It was during this time that mum was diagnosed as bipolar and appropriately medicated. It took a little while before she felt better, but it happened. After a few months she no longer felt she needed to self-medicate and she started going to AA. Please don't think that it was a quick and easy, because it wasn't, but our relationship became much, much better, and we became friends, while still enjoying our mother daughter bond. It was great, and I have some wonderful memories. My mum passed away 7 and 1/2 years after she became sober, at the age of 57. I've now lived 4 years longer than my mother did, and that's both weird, and painful. I sure hope that OP's mum can get help and perhaps they can at least begin to heal their relationship, before it's too late. We never know what will happen next, I lost both of my parents within 13 months of each other. If you have something that you want or need to say to someone, don't dawdle, the regret isn't worth it.

Whenever I've ever had to borrow $$ from friends, which is rare, i pay it back + interest. My friend covered my share of dinner once($30), told her I'd pay her back when my check came through. I sent her $45. Always pay ppl back bc if it was you, YOU'D want to get paid back.

I don't know what is customary in other countries but in Eastern Europe if it's your birthday and you invite your friends out, you have to pay for the whole party. Your guests bring you gifts instead.

Could never be on this part of tiktok. I'd go down a rabbit hole and never leave it. Going down a Charlotte rabbit hole with these videos however, is an exception ❤

[@mojo657]

Hey Charlotte, I just want to congratulate you for speaking out about mental health. It’s been such a long time of mental health being spoken about in whispered tones, like you should be ashamed that you sometimes need help with processing the BS that people put you thru or what affects your life. From one of your fans in Australia.

[@betsyklinker9573]

Friends not paying you back and then acting like you're the problem are the worst. As soon as you don't pay me back when you promised I'm done. I completely cut you off out of my life. Plain and simple. I can't tell you the amount of "friends" I have lost over a simple promise. See, to me, it's not about the money it's about that promise. Do not make a promise you can not keep. Easy

[@harukuroma376]

That road rage tiktok could've gone waaaaay badly. Thank god nothing happened

[@dolladollabillsyo7698]

Right!

I hate crowds so I can't imagine attending Coachella festival. I live off-grid on Mt. San Jacinto, on the North side of the mountain that overlooks the 10 fwy between Riverside and Indio, so every year I look down and see that FWY packed, looking like miles of parking lot. It stresses me out just looking at it! I would lose my mind if I was stuck in that mess!

[@Birdbike719]

​@@LazyIRanch Coachella sounds like an absolute nightmare. Wayyy overpriced, crowded, dusty, hot. That's a lotta drama just to say you've "been there". A fool and their money...

[@lottikokonut1250]

i would be hella mad too to be stuck in traffic on my way home coz of coachella. something i dont care about disrupting my life.

[@jacqattacq19]

Like that time at my work when one girl put her hand up to book our work Xmas party and everyone paid their money to her. Only for them to find out later she never made the booking and kept finding excuses not to pay the money back. Until some of us made stealing complaints to the police. The worst bit - we are dispatchers that are employed with our state police department! Needless to say, she is no longer employed there.

[@dianatawarar5957]

Yeessss! A friend once told me that, if someone borrows you money, lend them from an amount you don't expect back.

[@meisblonde]

That's what my dad says. Don't give them money if you can't afford to not get it back

[@Martin46154]

Performing in a public transit is never fun, because they know you're just stuck there and have to listen. and sometimes it's so loud it hurts...

[@194ellu]

Yeah, I agree and think it's insanely inconsiderate and actually quite rude

[@twinkle7607]

In my country, if you have to celebrate ANYTHING about yourself (not just birthdays but anniversaries, job, promotion, etc) you have to arrange it yourself and then pay for it yourself and the guests just have to bring gifts and have fun 🎉 Most of the older guests (if any) just give enveloped cash directly and the younger ones put some effort to buy a gift..

[@CursedRose200]

The stigma surrounding therapy is still so unnerving. Medications and therapy help as a team and helps balance someone's moods n such. People don't want to be wrong or face consequences because they don't care about others and deal with deep denial. Mental health conditions may be part of one's personality but it doesn't have to rule your life either. I have BP2 and it answered a lot of questions. I still have issues but I've been balanced and confident in myself to continue to just be a better me. Also like, I've been the generous friend in the past and if I had the ability I wouldn't have them owe me. However now that I'm more restricted- I can't help and then notice the people who ask but never give or connect. Friends be texting me for money but not about how I am. That's the BS. Also like, thar bridesmaid gonna owe waaaaay more than she stole at this point
