But she still uses Xanax and I use alcohol and weed. She always gets mad at me for drinking or smoking. While she is popping pills and shit. Then she starts fighting with me and sometimes gets violent. Or she gets scared then angry then cry's and basically is having major mood swings over anything. Like a bad dream. I really need to leave her but she makes it impossible to. Like she will call me and message me on social media even after blocking her (made new accounts).

I just had my wife taken to a mental ward because she's been undergoing a manic episode for a week now and I can't handle it anymore. I can't handle someone who can't acknowledge that their mode of thinking is no longer in line with our plain of reality, to the detriment of her relationships with everyone around her and to the detriment (most fucking importantly to me) of her ability to care for our 1 year old daughter.She hates and resents me for this now. She had bad experiences with the medical system a decade ago and she feels like this is a total violation of her trust in me, for me to be committing her into the hands of that system now, but I don't know what to do. She isn't all here and you can't fucking talk to her about it properly because she's so irritable and just fucking talks and talks for hours at a time if you do try to engage with her.Knowing her like I do, I have a feeling that once she comes back down to earth and is thinking a bit more realistically, she's still going to hate and resent me for having her put away. She'll never forgive me for this. But I just didn't know what to do, I felt like I was out of options and if I didn't put her in the hands of professionals then it would have been me who'd just suffer a total emotional breakdown and I would have ended up there.What the fuck do I do? I feel like this is going to be the potential end of our marriage. I can't fucking deal with her anymore but I don't want to split with her. I'm just so tired of it all, I just want her to be normal again. I'm tired of her obsessions, I'm tired of her social awkwardness. I just want her to be grounded. I want someone who I can talk to about inconsequential everyday things.

It runs in her family; her mother, father, and a younger brother all have it. Her mother was hospitalised for a manic psychotic episode about 14 years ago, her brother just last year (both episodes were triggered by being prescribed SSRIs without a mood stabilizer). Her initial psychotic episode was also triggered by being prescribed with an SSRI, which was prescribed due to a prolonged depressed spell as a result of PTSD from being raped a year or two previously. She was on medication (lithium and an anti-depressant) until 2016, not long before I met her. I've only ever known her while un-medicated. Somehow, some way, she had the mental willpower and persistence to avoid falling into mania for 4 whole years. Despite this impressive feat, I'm realizing that 1. this is a chemical imbalance that requires chemical help and 2. she has longstanding traumas and mental issues that she (despite her insistence otherwise) has still not gotten over after over a decade and needs serious professional help with.With this episode now, I'm looking back at everything and I'm realizing that she's mentally been on a long downward slope, slowly deteriorating. She's definitely not the same person she was when I first met her. I guess her progression was akin to that of a glacier - very slow, not noticeable to the naked eye, but it was definitely moving. Moving slow enough that you just 'get used to' her increasingly erratic behaviour; slow changes can become normal.

I now realize the importance of finding what makes me happy and that I can look forward to doing every day but I have yet to really figure those things out. Same with friends, a lot of the people that like me are people that ive either been too nice to or put on some kind of sham for. Some of said people I'm actively trying to avoid. Two because they're full of self pity and I was too nice to them and one is a lady that I taught English to in the community when I was going through my sort-yourself-out-ASAP phase. I have no idea where I'm headed through the next five years and people I've known just havent been right for me, and I've always felt the need to put on some kind of an act because I dont want people to see that stoner that isnt religious and doesnt have any deep connections.

I just want someone to talk to about this as I know there's no solution or getting that money back and I feel stupid for ignoring my conscience and willfully doing something I knew the entire time was a scam and was going to end badly. Long story short I let myself knowingly feed a scammer 500$ worth of Steam giftcards by sending them Pix of the scratched barcodes outside the store where I'd paid for them all under the premise that they would pay me back as soon as I got to their house which was only 500ft away from where I lived and was standing. I know they probably used a VPN or something but regardless, I was on Grindr and this chick hit me up 45 feet away from me with pics and telling me come over except she's babysitting and the kids need Steam cards to be distracted while we fuck etc. All very stupid and while the entire time I was showing my unwillingness to do all this well aware how this would turnout I was sent pics of the cash on hand and since it was so close I felt like I could just run up on the house with some backup once they decided they aren't coming outside with my money. Well, Scammer moved and hmu just now from a whole other coast and told me they spent my cash on weed and to pay them 50$ if i want my 500$ cashapp'd. Obviously they finally reveal themselves to be a young black couple and not a young women while flippin me the bird. Idgaf about the $ because I've afforded a 30grand private jet into LA drinking 800$ alcohol with my buddies and that cash isn't a big loss, not to mention I come from a family of business owners and shit that is so far above a measly 500$ for weed.Really what gets me is that I let this happen knowing full well the outcome and have never been so dumb before until then. Why did I do it? Was my dick truly just duped by some tits I saw? Is That what it feels like to think with my dick despite my brain saying absolutely to stop and not move forward because it's a terrible idea? Fuck, man.

Basically the title. I know everyone's probably going through it now, but I guess this sort of isolation just highlighted to me my lifestyle, and how I had to change nothing at all. I used to think that you know, I'll make friends and stuff once I get a car or a house or a job or something like that, that my life would get better in the future.So I did work on myself. I got my licensed and a car, got my own house, got two great jobs I love and am working on my education. I'm just so busy now though. Not that it anything I hate, but I just don't have time. Like I wake up, go to work, go to training and then come home to eat and study if I got an hour to spare.I guess I've got work friends, but everyone at work is 40+ and there's a bit of an age gap. Same with training, where everyone is at least 30 and has a family and kids and all that, and it's just a bit hard to connect. We joke around a bit, but I wouldn't say we're friends.I don't know, I guess it's just a problem I created. I just feel lonely, but even if I had a friend or a lady, I probably wouldn't have the time for them. I guess it's just I was working on getting myself in a stable position for years, and I did and I'm happy where I am now, but I guess I've just spent the last 2 years just focusing on myself, and I have, but I guess I'm just conscious now I could just sit here and let my life pass me by with no friends for another 25 years, and I would be content enough to not change anything, but still lonely. 10 posts and 1 images omitted.

Judgment and Invalidation of Others' Experiences View Thread Reply Hide James Bragglebury - Thu, 30 Apr 2020 20:21:07 EST FIEjOuV5 No.534441 File: 1588292467152.png -(25276B / 24.68KB, 652x215) Thumbnail displayed, click image for full size. I'm struggling very hard lately with my (internal) reactions to others' experiences.I've been through some challenges, I don't think it's relevant as to what - but I've always survived, sometimes through sheer force of will. During those times, no one was able to relate to me and certainly no one was able to help me. So I internalized how important independence and self-reliance are.Lately, and I don't know where this is coming from, since I'm in therapy and I'm learning a lot about opening up to others, expressing my needs and reaching out for help, I feel like I've grown to see others in 'lesser' (logically, I know full well every experience is subjective) circumstances crumble - and I judge them as weak. My therapist tells me to have compassion for each individuals' experiences, and I get that. I do. I try and help as best I can (if it's appropriate) without letting my judgment get in the way. Compassion is a skill I'm still learning as it was never show to me. I find it especially frustrating if someone else is offering some naive, pollyanna platitude to the person facing hardships. It's like no, that's... wildly unhelpful and redirects the locus of control from them, as a human being with their own agency, to some nebulous (and false) force such as luck, or god, or whatever. TL;DR - I have the constant thought in my head that if I got through XYZ - and on my own - there is no reason (in my view) why this person cannot get through ABC. I'd really like to hear if anyone's had similar thoughts and found the best way to move past them. I hate being this judgmental. I mean, at least I'm aware of it, that's a start....right?

I just found out my friend with diverticulitis is suffering from hep B on top of hep C and is struggling with addiction to hard drugs. He was on suboxone working for a pizza place but got fired due to the pandemic. He was living at a trap house but ended up in a hotel for a while after he overdosed on H and had to be narcaned several times. Claimed his room mate had a psychotic episode and that's why him and his girl couldn't live there anymore. Now they have been couch surfing. How can I support him? I feel bad he's only 20 and already struggling with two types of hep. When my parents help me get a place with my disability money, I want to let him stay with me because idk how he's supposed to at least get the hep c treated without stable housing. Any ideas how to comfort/support him in the mean time? It's gonna be a while before I'm in a position to take him in. I really love him though. I don't think his relationship will last much longer either. 2 posts omitted.

I recently started taking language lessons with a tutor. (Not at a university, I found her via an expat chat where a few tutors advertise their services)She's cute, my age, has a few interests in common with me, and has complimented that I'm cute and have a dynamic personality and am fun to teach. She also says I'm her most charming and funniest student. We've been working over Zoom but suggested getting together face-to-face (although that very well may be just her suggesting a better setting for our lessons).If I she was a tutor at a university I was attending (I'm no longer in school, I'm just learning the language because I've moved overseas and I need to learn the native language), I'd definitely not go for her. But she's not tied to any workplace or campus.Should I go for it (when the time is right)? Or would that be shitting where I eat/dipping my pen in the tutorship ink? Thoughts?Pic possibly related 23 posts omitted.
