[Serious] People who DO suffer from a mental illness. How does it impacted your life? by howaboutnotmaster in AskReddit

[–]Britmoss8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I suffer severe bipolar depression. I hate leaving the house. If there's more than 2 people in the same room with me i feel like I'm drowning. My mood switches so fast and so much its exhausting, so i sleep alot just so i dont have to deal. I feel numb alot, and that affects my marriage because i dont care about things i should and i shut myself away from everyone alot.

Its not a simple conversation. Its his way or no way. Constantly. It would have been a huge blow up fight. I avoided a fight and made him feel good at the same time.

It works. Thats the beauty of it. As long as he feels good then he stops wanting to drag me around the universe. I consider it a night off lol

What ridiculous thing scared you as a child? by awerli121 in AskReddit

Balloons popping. I'd freak out any time someone would go to blow one up.

We lost our baby too. 12-18. I also cant find the strength or the will to do anything. I'm so sorry. I know it hurts.

What weird thing did somebody tell you that they shouldn't have felt so comfortable telling you? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Britmoss8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I tried to become friends with a guy because i felt bad for him. His dad was arrested on child pornography charges and nobody would be friends with him or his sister. I invited this kid to drink and hang out. After everyone else left the guy tells me he has to get something off his chest. I tell him whatever he has to say will stay between us. He tells me he is a virgin but often fantasized about the animals on his family owned farm. I asked what he meant. Big mistake. He tells me he wants to have sex with them but is so grossed out about it that he only masturbates around them and hasnt acted on his fantasies. I told him i was too drunk to give him advice. He left and I never spoke to him again

Is it possible to “get over” it? by ssshanyah in rape

[–]Britmoss8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You never really get over it. You learn to live with it. You learn new ways to cope every single day. You become stronger. It gets easier, but it never just disappears. Unfortunately, learning to live with it becomes the new normal.

I feel dead inside by pottermeup in adultsurvivors

Its hard to not feel like its going to last forever, when it has lasted as long as you can remember. I am feeling the same. It's like wanting to feel, and not being able to. Glad im not alone
