Will they be included with a Canadian residency or will it only be for CanadaPlus?

I recently had to close my store for an hour, because I was the only one working and couldn't breath due to one customers bad hygiene. People treat me like I'm overly sensitive or making up my discomfort, but to me it feels like being suffocated.

Also I can totally smell roaches, they smell worse than any other thing in existence. Never smelled an ant though. Did not know that was possible.

Find a game store! Every city should have one or two places where people gather to play board games and card games. I've met some really great people just jumping into random magic the gathering matches. Only of my best friends was just some dude I met at the card shop, he was looking for a group to play dnd with and we've been meeting up once a week ever since.

Apps like meet up (if it's still a thing?) may be really useful as well.

It's super helpful to people like me who have been suffering their entire lives. It's great to feel heard and validated, but the real value is being able to learn about myself. I've never been a morning person and have trouble sleeping at night. It's really nice to hear something other than "you're just not trying" or "try counting sheep". It's a lot better than just thinking I'm flawed. I wish someone would have told my parents this when they used to scream at me for sleeping in too late or not being asleep when they wanted me to be.

It was the same way with my adhd. My parents and teachers kept telling me I was just lazy, or didn't care when I felt like I was working my butt off. Being 'worse' then everyone else ate me alive and I'm still suffering for it. It was the same with my brothers autism. It was the same with my chronic depression. I wish I was born in this age of self reflection and mental health awareness, and for the sake of all the kids like me I really hope we keep pushing forward.

I'm sure your comment was sarcastic, but I'm hijacking it to dump 20 years of built up trama,, and to let the world know how thankful I am that we're starting to accept these labels as more than just flaws. They're really, really helpful.

Edit to say, I just read the other comments and realize you weren't being sarcastic. I hope my post helped point out some of the reasons things like this are becoming so important to people.

I don't think about reddit unless I see these posts. Good for me!

Bought a fancy pizza the other day. They put zero thought into the distribution, instead opting for giant discs of goat cheese and spoonfuls of sauce spread about. Some bites were great, most were missing crucial ingredients for a pizza. Like sauce and cheese.

I misread this like three times. Very funny. 10/10 supportive dad joke.

Yup, that's my problem in a nut shell. People make it sound really easy, and I'm sure with enough time and reading it would be, but man is that not just something I can do right now
