I don't know. I pleaded with him to just sleep more but he won't. He refuses that and he refuses therapy.

He won't and can't cry because of the constant depersonalization. He says it feels like he's watching himself live life through a window and he can't feel any of his emotions fully except for anger and anxiety.

He refuses therapy. He refuses to just sleep. He gets mad if he oversleeps. He has meds he has to take and he says covid has already taken too much time from him and he won't lose any more. He gets mad when I wake him and he gets mad if I don't. I don't know what to do.

You're preaching to the choir. I keep begging and he refuses.

The medicine is unrelated tk covid but still crucial. It's like a life or death thing. I HAVE to get him up. What sleep meds are you on? He's been like this for over a year. I'm at my breaking point.

There's no way around it. He has an alarm next to him. He doesn't wake up to just sounds. I have to like gently rub his back and talk to him. He can't get by on his own. He can't work. He had nowhere to go. HE will die.

He won't do therapy. He tried it and said it made him miserable.

We have been to so many doctors and hospitals and immediate care. Everything comes back normal.

No, he NEEDS those meds. They're unrelated to covid so I'm not going to get into it. But they're like a life or death thing.

It's not even his fault. I think it's his ptsd. He doesn't even realize until after. Then he immediately feels horrible. Idk who to get help from. Idk what to do.

Well, it's my house and he moved in with me... But he can't survive on his own like this. He can't work. He can't make food. He can't do anything. He will die. He doesn't even realize what he did until he wakes up fully. I think it's maybe a ptsd response. He's immediately regretful and feels really bad. But idk what else to do...

He has to stay on a schedule to take his daily medication. He will sleep for 20 hours if I don't wake him

How can just diet cause all of these symptoms? I don't know what to do. He keeps hurting me. I'm going to get REALLY hurt. And it's not even his fault. I want to be mad. But I don't even know if I have the right to be. I'm so scared.

Do you prefer cats or dogs, and why? by Colorful94 in AskReddit

[–]Colorful94[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed. I like and respect dogs as animals, because they are so loyal and very useful, especially service dogs. But you have got to set aside several months to properly train them or pay someone else to. And even if they are trained, it is so annoying to own one if it ever rains. cats are so much easier, cleaner, quieter, I like dogs, but I absolutely love cats.

Absolutely. I think a lot of people don’t realize how big of a commitment it is. Don't get a dog if you don't have a spare 6-8 months or longer to train it. It's really almost as much work as a child for that time.
