I'm going through a really tough time right now due to changing meds and the end of a close friendship and just a lot of other things and I'm considering voluntarily checking in to a psych ward. I've seen people talk on here about Harborview and Swedish but I'm just confused about what the process is to go there. Do I have to call 911 and go to the ER first? Can I just show up? Do I cal ahead? If I do go to the ER, do I get to choose where I get sent or referred to? I'm really stressed about the idea of getting sent somewhere terrible against my will because I've heard horror stories of that happening. Honest to g-d I'm terrified to do this but it's getting to the point where I don't really have a choice. Someone please tell me how this works and reassure me that this is the right choice.

What's that about?!? Yeah yeah yeah, I know it's 'nature' and stuff but these are HUGE and there's a lot of them. Have the giant house spiders finally adapted outdoors? 😱

Hi! I'm planning a pacific northwest roadtrip for next year that I'm hoping to knock off a lot of my bucket list on! One of those things is potentially see a really big eel. I've only seen eels that are maybe 3-4ft at best, I'm hoping to see one possibly in the 7-8ft range, and the Seattle Aquarium has giant moray listed as one of their eels. So I'd thought I'd ask for anyone who has been to the aquarium, are the eels like, really big?

Hello 👋 I have been tasked with teaching someone to drive. Where would you go to have them get familiar with the basics?? Thanks in advance!

May I ask why people have their car lights on while driving? It's morning still and the sun out even if it's overcast?

I’m looking for a restaurant/bar with more than fried food to hang out in for hours and not feel rushed on a Thursday evening. Any neighborhood. Mocktails a plus. Coziness a plus. I have a friend in town and we have a ton to catch up on and I don’t want to have to leave after we’re done eating. Relaxed vibe with good food. I know must places aren’t going to kick you out if you keep ordering stuff, I just want comfort and no time limit.

Hello everyone, so I moved to Tacoma back in April from upstate NY. So I do not have a warranty on my car in this area, I have been doing a lot of research on where to go for new tires, breaks, and to get my cabin screen fixed. I drive a 2017 Chevy Malibu (not sure if that’s relevant) and would like some Local advice. Price isn’t a worry (within reason) I just need to get it done soon. Thank you all in advance 🫶

I'm not the type to go online and post personal information that may potential dox me or cause any harm. However, I'm left with no other options and could use some advice, tips, or anything that can help with resolving the issue. I worked at Hermosa Spa for about a month. Personal things came up that unfortunately required me to leave the job. They were understanding up until I asked about my final check. At first the manager stated that they have a policy that employers work a minimum FIVE days to get paid. Last month I was only able to work THREE. Obviously responded with that is an illegal policy to federal law. No matter how many days I've worked they are legally required to pay my last check. They've been giving the runaround and still have not paid me. It is well over the pay date with no response. I have already filed a complaint with the Department of Labor & Industries, but that can take up to two months (60 days). Please any advice, tips, comments, or anything that will help with getting my final check.

What is your go-to for best mexican/latino food in Lakewood? Edit: thanks for all the great suggestions and information.
