Nobody taught me to power tool :(

I dunno. There’s definitely stuff I had to teach myself and is highly iffy
And stuff I didn’t cover for reasons
They did when I got really sick. They didn’t say the reason but after my performance dipped and I told them of my health suddenly my contract wasn’t renewed.
This only works at home… but sometimes if I’m in a bad way and stressing with the wait times I lie in bed with the phone on my pillow and have it on speakerphone, so I can just kind of rest and doze without fully dropping off. When they speak it can snap you out of it to answer.
Or you can speakerphone while doing something else like cleaning or dishes
That is the worst… I got a mix of that, some things I had to help with growing up (so I learned a few no frills meals, cleaning and to run a washing machine) but the vast majority of adult skills I had to teach myself after leaving home. I’m still learning them and a lot are incomplete even at my current age.

I will also answer any particular questions if I can.
Ps. Seriously consider accessing somewhere that does financial counselling, because I got none of that and had to learn about money management from influencers, avoided debt so hard I never built up a good credit score, and never got taught how to manage a super. Also definitely get help learning how to do taxes.
Edit: I also recommend you find the lever to turn the mains water supply off, same for the gas. If either leaks you can just cut the flow. Keep a bill for each handy so the faults number is right there. And locate the electrical switchboard for your house.
And when you get photo id? Update it before it expires. Make sure you have your birth certificate and passport when you move out.

Life is so fucking shit.
It was already so bad and now I’m supposed to just go on without Melbcat. I don’t really want to.
I’ll mention it and ask whether it’s fully healed yet or still contagious. Though it would be fitting. Carried off by the fairies via mushroom ring.
I wish I could just grab this guy and bathe him

I also had a bit of a Google (‘brain injury refusal to eat’) and brain injuries can result in dysphagia so perhaps a speech therapist might help. Unfortunately if that’s the case it involves swallowing exercises which she won’t want to do.
Another result is not understanding their medical conditions and the consequences of not eating, which is harder.
Appetite stimulants and Risperidone could help but maybe a trip back to the docs is in order to get to the exact why of refusing food
That’s manageable, it’s the rest of me that’s borked
J-peg and parenteral nutrition are also options if extreme ones
Edit: of course probably not available on the cruise ship but later
That’s a non-issue and being treated. Just a small gift from the visitor 🐈⬛🍄
I have a toolbox but despite male family having those skills I taught basic repairs to myself :(
