She honestly sounds like she's going in the wrong direction of becoming a good person and friend. Now she's making up excuses why she's this way. She is too lazy to put effort into it that's why she is the way she is. She really needs to quit blaming the in-laws for her life! It's ridiculous and embarrassing.

 
Taylor only puts effort into relationships that benefit her. Until she realizes that a true healthy and good relationship involves wanting to give your best to the other(s) involved and not just taking and receiving, we'll continue to see the revolving door of friends and husbands/boyfriends. Right now her mentality seems to be "what can this person do for me" not "what can I bring to this relationship."

New poster here...just wondering if anyone has a link to the show from last night?  Don't have that channel in my subscription!

 
Do you have OnDemand? Sams show is on OpieRadio, I just searched that channel's onDemand episodes.  I tried to find a link but failed.

I don't think PTSD is the right term. Maybe just an excuse for her poor behavior. PTSD develops after experiencing or witnessing a traumatic event. The definition of a traumatic event is exposure to actual or threatened death, serious injury, or sexual violence.

 
She said the therapist told her PTSD was caused by in-laws. Tay did say that she felt therapist was exaggerating her having PTSD. I wonder if her therapist is licensed. I don't think licensed health professionals want to throw out diagnosis like PTSD for fun.

Tay went with her parents several times to CVS while she was married to get Plan B. Yikes. Makes me sad for B.

This is just so odd to me. Was she doing it behind Brett's back? Did she forget to take the pill and this was backup? If that's the case, why couldn't she go on her own or with Brett? Just the going with her parents is so strange. I'm really close to mine, and I couldn't imagine. 
 

The plan B story was sad, when one spouse wants a baby and the other does not it really puts a strain on the relationship.  I'm glad she was smart enough to realize that having a baby in their shitting situation was not a good idea! But she should of been on BC if kids were out of the question.  I have a friend who is not on BC but her and her husband are not ready for children and every month she is nervous she is prego.  

But I do think the story was kind of an exaggeration.  Logistically it does not work, wasting the time to drive/fly back to Boston to get the meds, was she having sex in her parents house? *knock on wood, i have never had to take it* but doesn't it work better if you take it ASAP? 

Thank God that she didn't have any kids or pets!

Oh, I didn't even think of that. Isn't it 24hrs?

I thought the exact same thing, Piopio. I'm guessing what really happened was her parents (mom) advised her to go get Plan B, not that they went with her to get it. She exaggerated for sure. 

Ok, so you have 72hrs, but still. plan B® comes in a one-pill dose. If taken within 72 hours (3 days) and preferably within 12 hours after a contraceptive accident or unprotected sex, it can prevent pregnancy by doing one of three things:

• Temporarily stops the release of an egg from the ovary
• Prevents fertilization
• Prevents a fertilized egg from attaching to the uterus

I'm so sick of the excuse 'I'm just got divorced; I'm selfish..."  THAT'S BULLSHIT. You are flat out a bad person right now and when you have no one and nothing and are wondering what happened...come back and we can tell you what we've been saying all along. Come on Taylor. You are 31...not 21. Get your shit together now. You are a grownup with real responsibilities. I realized the biggest differences when I listened to 27 y.o. Stassi on her podcast with 31 y.o. Taylor. Guess who was the mature, prepared, and outstanding 'broadcaster' (for lack of a better word) of the 2? And to be honest (just so you know I am not always mean to Taylor), I loved the 2 of them together and think it might be kind of fun to have them with Kenny all of the time!  But I'm soooo very sick of the "poor me" Taylor train. Just STOP. There are real people with real problems out there not getting drunk every night and bragging about their A list friends while crying "poor me, poor me...I want to be rich and fabulous but do it by being lazy..."

 

Amen to this! I stopped listening and check this board to see if anything has changed hoping to listen again.....nope, still the same self centered person that blames everyone but herself for her career, failed marriage, and flakey friendships.

Side note : I understand talking to your mom about plan b or her going with you. What's up with the dad? That's creepy and weird! Listening to Taylor for years I believe her dad was involved. Trust me I love my dad and he is my world but that's not a conversation I would have with him. Strange.

She also said that she's disappointing everyone her friends and family
I'm curious how she's disappointed her family.

She said she was taking Plan B "so much" she didn't tell Brett because she didn't want to hurt his feelings. Also, she doesn't take BC because "like friendships, I am too inconsistent to take birth control."

I think what I liked about Taylor and Stassi together is that Stassi wouldn't let Taylor get by with her shit! Much like Sam and Taylor....

Does anyone know what hour or approximately when she discusses this? The Sam and Taylor episode is on demand but I don't want to listen to the whole 3 hours.

You can skip to the first break on demand. Taylor comes in right after that.

Wow! That is so irresponsible...

 
There are other birth control options not to mention plan B is expensive compared to BC covered either fully or partially under insurance. For one I've been on Nuva Ring before. I didn't like it and now I'm currently on Nexplanon, which covers you up to 3 years. It also (after a few months) nearly eliminates a period so I can do my job 100% of the time instead of 25% of the time (reference to another idiotic Taylor statement).
