Well, truth be told, lots of people get grey hair in their 20s. It's most notable in darker haired individuals, of course. My cousin went straight grey in the front due to stress, in fact. My brother who has red hair started going bald in his 20s. So at least your hair issues aren't only your own. :) Upside, yeah?

Most of what your describing sounds like fetal alcohol syndrome. Your parents very likely were self medicating due to mental health you clearly inherited. I’m very sorry for what you’ve been through and are going through. Are you receiving the help you need?

They saved lives that day, and stomped on a persons legal rights all at the same time. Gnarly world we live in. I grew up right next to that King Soopers and shopped there weekly. Boulder is a safe place and mostly the cops don’t interfere with life. It might be because basically everyone there is white though. Who knows.

My uncle and a cousin both developed schizophrenia when they hit puberty. My uncle killed himself, while my cousin tried to kill his sisters when he was 14 with a knife so has been away since...he's now 64. Their lives were very stressful. Lots of neglect and abuse by their fathers. My uncle went into the Navy and was severely hazed. After he came out of the service he wasn't the same. Lasted into his 30s. He used to see witches. My grandmother was the worst mother to him and my grandpa was a WWII vet who once told my mother while she was on her period that she could only use two pieces of toilet paper. The stress from their lives definitely pushed them into it. Also of note, they both have celiac disease which is massively inflammatory. My grand mother is in her 90s, still mean as hell, and they have her on psych meds for bipolar/schizophrenia (they're used for both). It took her until her 80s for anyone to do anything about it. It doesn't really help her behavior though.

I wasn’t cruel. I was matter of fact. There is a difference. I hold no I’ll will toward you. I’m very sorry for your friend and for your loss. Pregnancy is life changing and parenthood is something else. I have ptsd from my first and from my two miscarriages. All three were extremely traumatic and my first caused immense pain for months after. Luckily, my new guy popped out in seven minutes. I also had to spend three days in the hospital after for monitoring my blood pressure. It was wonderful. I ordered room service and watched Xfiles. Having a few days to myself before I had to deal with a toddler and a new born at the same time was great. I wish the US operated like Nordic countries. But alas...morons live here.

I’m a mom. I’ve got two and had two miscarriages. Stfu, please. All you have to do is replace “ primary care giver” with mother and it removes your emotional bias against information. If any primary care giver is depressed then children get spoken to less. This is a fact. The less they are spoken to the more likely it is they will be speech delayed. Fact. It isn’t personal. It’s just a thing that happens. Pointing out that it is a thing that happens also is not personal. You may be suffering from depression or have a lot of mom guilt that is causing you to take this study personally to the point you think information should be withheld from the public until they have a way to relieve you of your emotional issues. That is not their job. It is your job to seek relief. Researchers are not therapists. Emotions don’t matter.
