In September a guest at the restaurant I worked at sexually assaulted me. I told 2 managers and neither one did anything about it. I asked my general manager to drop that table's food off for me so I did not have to lean over the man that assaulted me. He refused and forced me to do it. I ended up having a panic attack and dropped a plate. I was immediately sent home and 2 days later the GM fired me over the phone while laughing at me, stating it was for, "behavior unbecoming of a server." He fired me for having a panic attack after being sexually assaulted.

I fought the firing and kept notes through the whole process. The District Manager hired me back, but none of the things we agreed on ever happened. (I asked for back pay for the days I was fired, an apology from the GM for laughing at me while firing me, and to be immediately put back on the schedule.) After returning it was an extremely hostile environment. My hours were cut and I was treated horribly my him and my coworkers. I got extremely depressed and anxious until I found another job and quit. I want to sue the company for the way everything was handled, as I feel very discriminated against and am still extremely depressed. What is your opinion on this and what should I do?

Thank you for taking the time to do this AMA, we really need more people like you.

We only made fifty bits and we didn't expect such a rush!

Really this all depends on where you live. Most places have organizations that will donate some money to a woman so she can have an abortion. But these funds are typically depleted quickly. You can just google abortion assistance in whatever city and state you are in. There should be one or two places that offer monetary help.

Good man, good man. I had a Tubal last April, nothing but bad has come of it. Sadly I did not do anywhere near enough research before having it done and my husband and I are now paying the price. Most doctors won't even acknowledge that there is such thing as Tubal Ligation Syndrome, which is a problem. A BIG problem.

Sadly, no procedure is all happiness and kittens. But, PVPS does not seem to happen NEAR as often as TLS. Because most doctors won't even tell you it's a possibility or acknowledge it, they don't know what percentage of women get it. From the last time I looked it was anywhere from 15% - 50% of women end up with some form of TLS.

For some women it's super mild, like worse mood swings with PMS to women that get so many symptoms it's scary, like myself: PMDD, depression, cramps so bad your knees buckle, random pain in the pelvic region, anxiety and some women even end up with a kind of necrosis of the ovaries (thankfully I did not get that one). I became super depressed within days and was completely detatched from my kids. I couldn't stand my newborn daughter at all. It took me months to rebond with her, like it's been a year and I'm just now getting it back.

It all sucks, badly.
