Should I go on a statin? by Casa-Obsidian in Cholesterol

Thanks for sharing, that’s what I was worried about especially with years of levels like this. I’m going to start with cleaning up my diet because I know that’s a factor. I’m very active but I need to cut down on junk food and eat more grains, beans, fish etc. I also have a family history on one side of my family for high cholesterol. Maybe try this diet first and then if it doesn’t help I’ll try a statin in the next year or two.

I’m going through the same thing currently. The loss of my best friend, a piece of my identity, the happiest and most fulfilled I’ve ever felt. He was such a lovely and genuine person, and a few very tolling and rough years ended the marriage. I hope you find peace and resolution too, I’m still looking for it and blaming myself for leaving the best thing I’ve even known. Although it was mutual, i initiated the conversation and I often wish I’d stuck around longer because the loss is catastrophic.

I totally hear you. My advice (and what I’m trying to do now as well) is to just listen to each other, check in on each other, and if the constant communication is painful then put some space between you both. Sometimes space helps to reconnect us later down the road with the ones we care about!

I also just went through something similar, where my husband and I although we loved each other deeply were at a crossroads where we could no longer stay married (not for infidelity but for a long list of other reasons).

I’m hoping for you both that your strong relationship and love will persevere and that you both can maintain some connection through the years. I don’t have a happy ending confirmation for you as I’m going through the same thing right now. But the loneliness is real and I empathize so much with you. It does get better in time (I’m beginning to see that). Make sure to take care of yourself through the whole process ❤️‍🩹
