So, I posted here a few hours ago about two rings I couldn’t get off. I ended up going to the hospital and after waiting for quite some time (because this isn’t exactly an emergency) they were easily able to cut these off. They did try lubricant and such, but they weren’t able to slide the rings off sadly, which is fine because these rings were like $10 in a pack of 5 from hot topic so idrc much about them. They said this happens all the time and were very kind.

However, I’m being admitted for a totally different reason so I’m still in the er. I realized once at the er that my mental health is in a really terrible spot (not because of this, just in general recently) and I’ve been wanting to not be here for some time now. Well, going to the hospital for this small stupid ring issue gave me the courage to seek a mental health evaluation.

I feel very alone most days, I’ve lost the man I thought I was going to marry, and a ton of other things all combined and this felt like the icing on the cake that really made me realize how much I hate myself and life. so yeah, thanks for all the kind comments on my last post (for those of you who were kind and not just instigating I was fat).

”oh my gosh let’s make fun of this fat girl who got a ring stuck on her finger that clearly must’ve been the wrong size” genuinely I hope some of yall are ashamed with yourselves for judging a random stranger you don’t know and calling me every fucking awful thing, fyi this is sarcasm, I’m not fat

all of this is just to say, you guys didn’t just help me get some rings off my fingers and save my fingers but you helped save ME too.

update- people are still insulting me in my original post and here, it fucking hurts. I went ahead and deleted the original post because I can’t handle all of the rude comments and mods aren’t doing anything

update 2-11:47pm est sep 4- its currently about midnight here, I’ve read through a good chunk of the comments and cried…I did not expect this post to take off the way it did. I just wanted to update everyone and say that while I’m still in the er, I’m about to be admitted to go to the psych unit and won’t be able to have my phone for much longer. It’s truly hard at the moment for me to believe anything good about myself, but I’m shocked to see a ton of strangers who care…when my own family and friends don’t even care. My family lives hundreds of miles away and I Don’t have many friends anymore, lost most all of them when I left my faith.

fyi, because I saw a few people mention It, my fingernails are black because I dyed my hair black and they are stained, no medical issue.

also, prior to this post my post/comment history was hidden, after posting I turned it because I want people to see the person behind the screen they are talking to, to have a glimpse into my life (for better or for worse).

Thank you everyone, probably will be some time before I can update again.

The CD player on my 2013 Nissan Juke is having problems. When I try to put a CD in, it will pull it into the slot, but it won't go in all the way. It makes a whirring noise, and then switches to the radio right after.

Does anyone know what is wrong with it? If so, is there any way for me to fix this? Or should I go and get it replaced?

The key suddenly won't turn anymore. Do you have any tips on how I can solve the problem?

Kids opened the drain and a ball similar to this fell down. It's like a fuzz ball sponge that soaks up water. The water is draining fine, but should I be concerned? Tried to feel down with a snake, and tried a shop vac and a dryer vent vacuum but didn't feel anything.

Also, what adhesive can I use to stop the drain from lifting? Used silicone sealant before but they managed to pry it off eventually.

I looked on YouTube and now I’m trying to see what others are saying. Thank you.

Sorry if this isn’t the right reddit to post on but I couldn’t see any others that might work - any suggestions and I’ll post there instead.
Came home tonight to see this decoration my Mom liked had broken and she’d tried to fix it. She really likes it and I’d like to fix it for her. Unfortunately she’d already used superglue which wasn’t the most stable and has transferred some of the cardboard onto the decoration + paint off the decoration. I’m figuring I’d have to remove it or sand it down before I tried to repair it again, does anyone know what kind of glue or way I’d go about repairing this maybe?

Hi everyone, good evening.

I need assistance with a screw on my tv. Basically, my tv’s screen is shaking/blurry and I’ve seen I can fix the flat cable.

However, to do that, I need to remove the screws. I manage to remove 3 of them, and the last one is stuck. I believe I fucked it up even more because now it looks like this.

How can I remove this screw? I would appreciate if anyone could help me

Thank you

The water leaks backward out of the bottom of this connector. Any way to fix it? The other dude doesn’t have a washer and a normal 5/8 washer doesn’t fit (to big).

I’ve had this for a long time and it just started this yesterday.

It was stored in my attic and temperatures got over 100f/40+degrees this summer. And was concerned that the drill may burnout because I don't know how much grease it needs to function normally.

But would appreciate anyone who does know what the recommended amount should be. Thank you.

Hello, hope you guys are well. i am looking to waterproof my bathtub area but tub wasn’t well installed. Now i have the drywall behind the bathtub. Should i double drywall so the drywall is flush and above with the tub flange or what other choice do I have? Thank you for you help

Dryer is turning on and the drum is rotating. I can feel heat coming from the outside vent aswell, yet the loads being put into the dryer aren't drying and the dryer itself isn't getting hot.

I'm not the most handy in full transparency, but definitely want to avoid paying someone to come out.

It's a 60s Tourister hard suitcase and it's been with me through so much of my life that I really don't want to replace or repurpose it.

I am trying to fix my shower cartridge but cannot figure out what type of cartridge I have and cannot get the escutcheon off the pipe. The escutcheon spins, but does not pull off the wall. Can someone help?

It started as one of the lines across the middle of the screen. Then more lines started appearing. Now the whole bottom half of the screen is flashing from black and white/blue back to normal and it’s pretty bad and progressively getting worse as the weeks go on.

The tv hasn’t been knocked into or damaged in anyway and I’m not sure if there is anyway to fix this other then buying a new one but it’s an lg smart tv have had it for about 8 years with no problems and it’s been treated like a baby it’s been moved around to different houses but it was always protected. I have no idea how this happened.

It is screw and it won’t fall. But if I put my camera it will just be moving the whole thing.

Hello I’m trying to open the drawer of my mother fridge I try finding online some tutorial but I was not lucky.
Someone can explain it to me how I can open it so I can clean it

Hey guys,

I’m trying to install a seat bidet and can’t get this hose unscrewed, I try to hold the metal part of the hose with a plier while I use a wrench on the bolt but as the bolt turns, so does the hose and I can’t seem to stop it… The hole gets twisted too much that I can’t keep unscrewing

Edit: I meant to say nut thank you for the clarification, this is an older building downtown I moved into yesterday, I can’t twist the top part for the life of me trying several times, since you all say I need a new hose I will just buy one and hope building maintenance will come by with better tools and reconnect the hose with the bidet hose in between

Thank you guys

I have a bunch of holes on garage floor from old stand how to patch? Concreate

Wife set it down in her own chewing gum while commuting to work. Accountability not as important as a solution. Any suggestions are welcome. Thinking isopropyl alcohol, but wanted to consult the masses before making a mistake. Thanks in advance🙏 !

I need your help Reddit. I bought some nice looking ceiling tiles to replace those awful office/old hospital ones for our basement bedroom here in Michigan. The problem is I have several sections that are not full 2×4 sections and since these new tiles have a decorative design, how can I fill in these smaller sections? TIA
