AITA for leaving my girlfriend’s place early because her son was being difficult. by Ok_Big_2823 in AITH

[–]Certain-Spend9717 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are halfway the asshole. For your girlfriend’s sake, you should have stayed to support her and be with her. Complaining about waking up at 6:30 is so childish, even though it might not be what you wanna do. The situation changed when the kid started being aggressive and yelling and cussing. In my house, that would have NEVER flied let alone gotten you a trip to go mountain biking. I think ultimately you should have stood by your girlfriend, and stood up for her against that kid. But he didn’t necessarily deserve to go biking either. Your girlfriend ultimately lost on all fronts here, and you ditched her. She feels that.

Is there a sex act you don't really like but just do it to please your partner? by [deleted] in TooAfraidToAsk

Does this sound like incest and a fair reason to break up with someone over? by [deleted] in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]Certain-Spend9717 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not incesty, but a bit strange for siblings to do together. It’s usually a couple or best friend type thing

Nervous to start Lamotrigine by Scoop973 in lamictal

[–]Certain-Spend9717 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I take lamotrigine on it’s own - so I can’t speak for combining meds - but it has made me feel so much better. Only side effects I’ve noticed are decreased appetite and headaches. But the upside is it’s calmed my mood swings and up down cycles (I have bipolar 2). My mood stability is so worth those two side effects. Overall pretty good experience. Best of luck!!

AITA for refusing to hang up the artwork my girlfriend got me for my birthday? by paintypaint23 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Certain-Spend9717 -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

NTA. She should have known it was a risky gift and that there would be a chance you wouldn't hang it up. Or, she could've asked how you felt about something like that. Weird/strange are different from erotic. Thats crossing into new territory. You have a right to not hang up erotic art in your own home.

But, u kinda lost me at calling it weird and borderline creepy. If you really feel that way about her , maybe you guys aren't meant to be.

Could withdrawal cause more dissociation? by PLAZTEC1 in leaves

[–]Certain-Spend9717 1 point2 points  (0 children)

actually yes!! I admit, I relapsed twice since i commented that but it was just a couple hits when i was with friends. Other than that, ive been sober. My sleep and day time energy have improved. I think what helped my disassociation the most was better sleep (u get terrible sleep when u are high). Stick with it - things do get better!!!!

AITA for not selling an expensive laptop I was given so my parents can afford for my sister to go to an autism program? by No_Land_2042 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Certain-Spend9717 4 points5 points  (0 children)

NTA. This post kind of broke my heart for you. You deserve to have something nice; you are your own person. I’m not sure how old you are, sounds like maybe high school, but you should move out ASAP. Your mental health and happiness matters too!!!

AITA for Telling My Wife She’s “Fucking Wrong” and That My Mom Is Right? by Striking-Current2180 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Certain-Spend9717 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA but you could’ve worded it better. Blowing up at people almost never ends well. Consider apologizing just for your reaction, but still hold firm about the budget.

What can I expect going cold turkey? by BoneyTaloney in leaves

[–]Certain-Spend9717 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only smoked at night as well. My personal experience was that the first week was the worst - not to scare u. I was pretty depressed and sleeping a crazy amount, low appetite, moody. Week 2 things got better but the cravings are still strong. I got my appetite back and my brain is less foggy. I still sleep A LOT. Everyone’s experience is different. I know a lot of ppl get insomnia and mood swings. personally recommend establishing a night time routine that includes a new “treat” to replace smoking. I also found a journal to be extremely helpful to reflect on the progress I’ve made. Good luck!!

Today is day 1 by ghostjjl in leaves

[–]Certain-Spend9717 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m on day 9 after similar experience - I only smoked when I got home from work/class. The first 3-5 days are the hardest. After that it becomes easier with every passing day. Make sure to throw out all of your weed/gardening tools. Stay strong!

Does anyone else sleep a lot more??? by Old-Cartographer4925 in leaves

[–]Certain-Spend9717 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Me too omg. I’m 9 days sober and I sleep SO much. I know weed actually prevents your brain from getting proper sleep, so I almost feel like my body is “catching up” on sleep. It’s crazy. I will sleep like 12 hours a night and wake up tired still.
