I have a mac pro desktop computer and today I wanted to factory reset it because it was junked up so I booted into recovery and the ssd won't mount no matter what i do so i took it out and got rid of it and now my computer won't boot

I am looking for some advice from anyone that can offer any suggestions to help me with my situation.  First off I will say I am a live in caretaker for my two elderly parents who both have various health issues, who are very high risk for coronavirus.The coronavirus threat is causing some problems among me and my family.I have a brother that has been in contact with a friend that has tested positive for Covid 19. My brother has now been showing symptoms of an off and on again fever.I have warned him to stay away from our parents while he is sick, and he does not listen. I unfortunately had to get as far as involving the cops today with the situation, as he showed up at our house wanting to come in to chat for no real reason. He is sick.My parents understand he is sick but they say they are not going to tell their own son that he can't come to our house to be around them. They said if he does have the virus and they get it from being around him, that they don't care anymore. I feel as if they are ready to give up on life and don't care either way if they were to contract it. But I love them and am trying to protect them from it. The police have said that my parents have a right to choose whether they want him to be around or not. They are free to choose for themselves of course. But I just don't think it's a good decision with him already sick. Anyone have any suggestions for what they would do in this situation? I just want to help keep my parents safe.

My husband's sister has been living with us and now my other sister in law asked my husband if she can come live with us as well. She said it will be until she finds a place as she is splitting up with her boyfriend. I said yes, but told my husband to tell her she can stay with us for 3 months while she finds her own place. I told him to let her know from the start so that she knows now rather than having to tell her later. Yes she is family, but we already have his sister her 2 kids and my niece living with us. It is very overwhelming because am literally Monica from the show Friends. I like my house a certain way. It is difficult to deal with that because other people are living here. With my niece she knows how I am so she makes sure she follows the house rules. So I'm getting overwhelmed because i feel like if I tell my sister in laws something what if they see me different? I can tell my niece because shes family. We bought our house on November so I'm very careful with the house I like things clean and take care of everything as much as possible. My sister in laws kids stained my dining table broke my coffee centerpiece leave hand prints on my wall and they broke the towel holder in our guest bathroom so it's very stressful. The worst thing is she lets her kids do all these things and didn't tell us it happened.  I feel like if I say something she will take it in a bad way so now I will have 2 sister in laws living with me double the stress. What should I do?

He is 8 and still sleeps betweem them. I'm 15 and I just find it kinda weird. I would never wanna sleep woth my parents because I like having privacy and for other obvious biological reasons too.

I love my mother, she was my best friend. But I feel like she's too toxic. All my life, she was controlling me and emotionally abusing me. We had our ups and downs in life. I got tired of her favouring my brothers over me. I have 2 younger brothers and they were allowed to do whatever they wanted to me but if I try to fight back after taking so much of it, my mother would take their side and hit me for trying to fight back. She does have a gentle side. I was always taken care of. She would make my favorite meals if I asked, gave me money when I needed it, bought me whatever I wanted and even supported me. She even bought me a $9000 car that she literally didn't have to. But I feel like she's affected my life emotionally abusing me. I was always told I'm not good enough. She use to tell me that no one will like me cause I'm ugly and fat so I should accept anyone that wants me. It affected my self esteem. I had so much anxiety and I suffered with depression. After I turned 23, I was still living with my family and I had a job. She never wanted me moving out so I stayed to make her happy. She had a friend who has a son around my age. She kept trying to force a relationship on me. She told me that she already scheduled a date and I will show up to the date if I liked it or not. I went to the date and talked to the guy just to please her. I started "dating" the guy for 2 months and even though he was nice, I had no feelings for him and I wasn't happy so i broke up with him.  My mom became furious and we got into a heated argument. She told me I'm hideous and now I'm stuck with her all her life and no one's gonna want me. I suggested that I'm gonna pack up and move out and she screamed "NOOO"  at the top of her lungs and literally started hitting me and pulling my hair. She slapped me really hard twice but I didn't defend myself because I knew she was angry and I let her do it. She didn't stop and kept hitting me. I decided to just leave. I cut her off for 2 months now and stopped answering her calls. People have been telling me that my mother is a good woman and she's done a lot for me. I love her but I just don't ever want to see her again. I moved 8 hours away because I'm sick of it. I even left that $9000 car she bought me. Am I wrong for doing this? 

So my mom and dad are both 36 and we all have his last name. But he also says for example "She is mine" or "you are my baby or something like that". I'm kinda confused.

I'm 19, I still live in my parents house- unemployed because of corona. My mother has always been manipulative, causing my two younger siblings, my father and myself to walk on egg shells all the time. Today, she made a comment on something and I just politely said that I disagreed. She blew the entire thing out of proportion, bashed me and my siblings on other things non-related to the topic to begin with. I then stand up for myself, repeating the manipulative and narcissistic phrases that she's using in a confused tone, because they do not make sense at all.  She decides to leave the house and turn her location off because we all have the life 360 app. Which is extremely childish. We have no idea when she'll be back. What can I do to be a role model for my siblings and how can I handle this situation? I don't really have anywhere else to go. And I can't just leave my siblings in this environment. Note: this is not the first time she's left but this is the first time she's done it since I've been an adult. Also, please don't tell me that I shouldn't have stood up for myself. I cannot live my life without defending myself and my beliefs, I can't try to sacrifice my mental health and well-being just to appease my mother.  Hope somebody sees this and is willing to help me out. Thanks. 

So my parents are constantly joking and stuff like that. Ig the whole family does. I joke with my friends and stuff but I'm very sensitive about certain jokes and I don't like jokes that attack me or my appearance.  I play with the family dog a lot and there's a joke that everyone made that he doesn't like me because he never comes to me or anything.  Today I was about to leave with my mom or my sister and go somewhere and I was walking up stairs and I heard my mom Imitating the dog and she was like "she scares you dosent she"  And my sister laughed and I called her out and she was saying it was just a joke and I got offended because I thought it was a take on my appearance and that she was saying I'm scary looking or something  I've been torn down in the past so I got hurt by that and me and my mom got into a fight and my dad got in and blamed it on me like he always does because I got offended and I keep telling them that they've known me for 18 years and know I can't take a joke so why do they continue to joke about me like that. It gets on my nerves and how my self esteem kinda hurts. Was that a take on my appearance and should I get offended?!

My brother and I have a horrible relationship mainly because of a lot of bad things he did over the years for example: befriended my abuser and rubbed it in my face for years, didn't stand up for me when I was being strangled, was never there for me, ignored me on birthdays and holidays, and defended his wife when she treated me badly for no reason... I honestly can't take anymore... 

I'm a 36 year old woman. I'm big, and fat, and depend on my parents for everything. I have mental disorders that I go to professionals for. And sometimes I get into fights and fits, with my parents. And I always ask them to buy things for me, and chocolates and once in a while a toy. They are overworked and tired with me. And I'm a burden and they say they regret having me. 

so i dont know whats wrong with me cause my dad was just on a facetime call with my mom and she started crying saying she missed us(ive been stuck in india for the past two months) and my dad gave the phone to me but i didnt feel a bit of sadness as if i didnt miss her at all.and all this time ive been stuck here i have never missed her i just miss my house.am i a bad person for thinkig this way??

after saying they will not tell me again

Lots of backstory to cover but basically home was toxic. Mentally and emotionally I woke up everyday feeling like **** and went to sleep like it.  My personal space wasn't respected. Parents would walk in my room at what ever time to start bickering at me over how I'm a failure, how I cause issues, how I'm not fit for the family, etc etc.  Well I decided last night, after my mom came in, (while I was working on my final project for school) and started going at it with me on how I needed to change and the next morning I was expected to wake up with a smile and be dandy, to leave for a little since I'm the one who causes all the ruckus and drama. Just to have things cool down at home. I didn't put up a fight, didn't raise my voice. Simple packed a few changes of clothes and when asked said I was going to a friends for a few day's for a break.  The moment I walked to my door both my parents threatened to call the police and tell the cops I was on drugs, suicidal, and about to go hurt someone. A huge lie just to get me to stay.  I want to go back home eventually but I don't think they'll see their actions as being wrong. They'll justify it all. Was their reaction to me leaving wrong? 

He is really smart and hardworking and he is a good man but he is really harsh with me.He set a lot of useless rule for example 1)I must call him sir 2)I must always go to bed before 10pm 3)I get my phone only on week end 4)I can never hang out with friends Some consequences are:1)He'd lecture me until I cry(but he never yell) 2)He'd make me face the wall for like 3hrs (i sometimes fall asleep there lol(like a corner time) 3)He'd make me write lines, like a lot,sometimes it's 300 and more 4)He'd also embarrass me when I don't know something or when I ask a stupid question lol.. I remember when I was a kid he was really kind to me,he literally never punish me Now he is not that kind...but I know he still loves cause he made me laugh(a lot)and he always listen to me

So my sister has blue eyes and blonde hair and I don't. I'm a male but would ofc still like to have those traits. I don't understand how this can even be possible. I have black hair and brown eyes. I think we have different dads but we have lived with the same one our whole lives. I really envy her and I just don't understand how this can be possible. Like I still have pale skin but ither than that we are opposites.

My mom has blue eyes and blonde hair and so does almost everyone on her side of the family. My dad has black hair and dark brown eyes and so does almot all of his family. Luckily I didn't get black curly hair but instead straight and brown hair. In my class I'm the only one who doesn't have blue/green eyes and it's annoying. I get bullied for it and just want to be normal. I haven't blamed my mom yet but it is texhnically her fault. I could have had blonde hair and blue eyes.... No I am not being over dramatic. I live in Norway and almost everyone has blue eyes and some have green.

Almost a year ago, when I started working, my dad bought me a car. He bought it off my cousin, and he told me that he will pay for the first full year for insurance while I save up. I'm currently not working, due to this COVID-19 pandemic. I wish I was though. But once the economy here opens up, and I'm able to go back to work, I will be saving up for my second year insurance. Although I do get OCD thoughts that I might have hit someone at a turn because I didn't look properly, and all these thoughts that I might have done something wrong while driving (because I am doing my best to keep a clean driving record), I feel more comfortable driving by myself. When I am driving my dad around, which he says he's paid the insurance, instead of him driving, I should be driving him. He does have a point, but when I'm driving him, I go under pressure. I feel like my driving has to be perfect. I get worried if I make a mistake, that he will yell at me. Keep in mind, this is my first car, and I have had a number of times where I've nearly hit a car, but thanks to my quick reaction, I've avoided all those accidents. But I usually prefer my dad to drive if he has to go anywhere. I will get **** from my sister if I let my anxiety get the best of me and I have my dad drive instead of me. My cousins who support me in my OCD recovery would also encourage me to drive my dad and get over this fear of perfection. My dad also knows I have OCD, he was there with me when I was diagnosed with it. Meanwhile I am very grateful for being able to have a car and not have to bus everywhere, this fear of driving has made it far more difficult for me to drive. It makes it twice as hard for me to drive my dad around. Everytime I reach a four way stop sign, I have to overcheck for pedestrians

I've gone to therapy since I was a child due to marriage issues btwn my parents and ptsd from my dad abusing my mom. I went again when I was a teen from ptsd after a rape. I've done my fair share and it personally hasn't helped me much.  There's some family issues rn where I'm growing up and becoming a woman and my parents refuse to see it. They say I am not my own person and as long as I live at home, I don't have my own life and I'm their property.  I would leave but I just lost my job 2 days ago.  They told me if I dont follow their rules, curfew, and don't go to therapy with them they're kicking me out.  I really do not want to go to therapy. And if I go, it's only to make them happy. It's not to help myself out in any way.  If I don't go, I'm homeless. 

When I was 12, a fire broke out in our house because of me. I lit up a candle in the living room on a side table that was close to the curtain. I looked up to the window and suddenly the curtain was on fire and it quickly spread to the house. I was screaming and my parents rushed to get me and my siblings to safety. The entire house caught on fire. It was so devastating. My parents had saved up for that house for years and it's gone. They kept telling me not to light up anything near objects that can quickly catch fire but I never listened. My dad is an artist and he used to paint for a living. He kept all his paintings in a room and they're all gone because of the fire. Since then, our life has been torn apart. The paintings were our life. We depended on it. We're not rich. We're just an average family. I'm 24 now and it still haunts me. I remember crying almost everyday because of what happened. I kept telling my mom and dad that I'm very very sorry but they always tell me that it's not my fault. They never blamed me for what happened but the truth is it's absolutely my fault and it's also my fault why my dad lost interest in painting. They still love me no matter what. They never dumped me. So tell me, do I deserve them?

I found out my sister who's 18 now has been sleeping around,popping pills and sending nudes for money and I'm wondering do I out her to our parents or not? I mean she is legal and it's LA so maybe it's just the culture idk

My son (17) loves sloths. He's a sweet kid, kinda dark sometimes. He's been having a hard time lately with his mental health and I thought I might get him one or two things to cheer him up. He likes to skate and he's a bit of a punk kid but he also has stuffed animals so...help?

I live in Minnesota been here for 10 years now. I have no family here, no friends, no man. I get lonely and depressed sometimes. Majority of my family lives in Wisconsin and I have a sister and aunt who lives in Arizona. I just want to be around family but I do not want to move back to Wisconsin (Milwaukee). So I'm thinking about moving to Arizona. The job that I'm currently working can transfer me so I won't have to worry about employment. Now I've been looking for apartments and that is where I'm having problems. All the cheap apartments have bad reviews (roaches, mold, mice, rude staff, etc) I've looked in Mesa most of the apartments I looked at had bad reviews. Some of those apartments are a little high too, one bedrooms in Mesa start at $800 & up. Apartments in Gilbert and chandler are nice but they're pretty expensive $1200 and up for a one bedroom. Is Phoenix a bad area? And is it ok to move now during this pandemic or should I wait a couple of months? Thanks for your help 

The reunion may be held but it will be low key due to Coronavirus. As for travel I doubt I will be doing that until this time next spring and the relative I wanted to see won't remember me by then. I wanted to go last fall but my Dad asked me to wait and go with him when he goes skiing. So I did, turns out my Dad was making a false promise which he often does. Then a wedding we were going to this week in the area I want to go to (Colorado) is postponed a year due to COVID-19. So how do I cope with this disappointment and just let it go rather then staying disappointed until next year?

My family's been bullying me since forever. They won't stop. Even when I tell them it hurts. It makes me want to kill myself. They get angry at me and want to fight me just for talking to them, they lie and tell me there's nothing at the store that I want, they won't let me turn on the heat when I'm cold but they can, they yell at me if I turn on the heat, they purposely open the window to make me cold, they treat me like there's something wrong with me, they tell me to go to a mental hospital because I'm sick, and they tell me I need to be sent away to live in a group home, they all gang up on me and jump on me. I don't have anyone to tell this to. No one cares. I don't know what to do anymore. I feel alone. 

He says it is not safe to go anywhere until at least late summer. We have been inside for a month. All 5 of us. My Mom says to do what he says but she goes for walks (Dad says my sisters and I can't). I am getting so bored and late summer is so far off. My older cousin brings the groceries but is not allowed to come in. We can't even have an 80th for my grandfather on June 27th because of COVID-19 (my older cousin and his Dad (my uncle) live with him and they get to go places and simply wear masks and gloves). How do I get my Dad to let me use the car and leave the house before August? We live in Fairfax, Virginia near Washington, DC. I am 16, my sisters 13 and 9. I told him I would wear gloves and a mask like my cousin and uncle do. Even my grandfather goes on rides with them (the 3 of them live together). My cousin is my age so it should be no different. We're both high school freshman.   Anonymous: I am a boy. 

She bullies me everyday. I'm sick of it. It's really getting to me. She talks at me all day. She calls me names (mentally retarded, b*tch, weird, stupid, anorexic, slow, ugly) makes fun of me (my weight, my looks, my life, my voice) hits me, mocks me, threatens me (call the police on me, tell people personal things about me, beat me up), slams the door in my face. She won't stop. Not even when I told our mom. I don't know what to do anymore. I'm thinking about suicide. I can't deal with it anymore.
