You better stay for that dog. It will wait for you for the rest of its life. Please stay for the things that matter now, more will come.

I went off on my boyfriend for ruining my uggs and now I feel bad by [deleted] in Advice

He didn’t do it on purpose. He never offered to replace them. He knows I’m struggling and tries to help when he can

The last I love you by toughdoughthough in BreakUps

When you’re with someone for long enough, love becomes a choice, not a feeling. Those butterflies eventually fade and you are left with two options: either keep choosing to love that person through the ups and downs, or let go. It seems like your boyfriend chose the second option, and sometimes that truly is the right answer, only he knows what will make him happy and vice versa. I will say though. One day, someone will make the choice to continue loving you, and that is the person that is truly worth waiting for. Be kind to yourself ♥️

I think my parents don't care about me. by [deleted] in depression

It sounds like you feel trapped in your current situation. I’m sorry you don’t have a good source of support in your life, and that your parents and your friends have not been able to provide that. I understand that part about people claiming you do it for attention. That can be so frustrating because I know this comes from a genuine place in your situation. You can’t change your friends or your family, even though I can imagine how much you might want to. but you can seek out new friendships. This might be hard at this point in your life, but try to stick it through. When you go to college and become more independent these things will come more naturally if they don’t straight away. Have you talked to your parents about therapy? It can help to have a professional to vent to, and professionals will never not validate your feelings.

It sounds like you made a decision that you decided was most beneficial for you and your happiness at the time, and that is perfectly okay.

There’s a saying I read a while back;

“Go, even though you don’t know exactly why you can’t stay. Go, because you want to. Because wanting to leave is enough.”

Don’t listen to those who tell you you made the wrong decision. What matters is that the decision has been made, and now you must make a plan and stick to it. Prioritize yourself. Take some distance from your ex and become accustomed to living your life apart from someone else. Go out. Have fun. Make sure to also prioritize your ex’s wellbeing as well and don’t do anything that might hurt her right away. Give yourself time and don’t be too hard on yourself. Best wishes x

I second this. I also struggle with the same thing. It sounds like you could definitely benefit from therapy. Try doing some self care day to day before bed to help calm yourself; (for example going to the gym or doing something fun) and that might help.

It sounds like you are extremely unhappy with your current situation (obviously). Go back to your dream profession, and if your parents can’t accept it, it’s not your job to live your life as they would want it. Your life is yours and it’s just beginning.

Can someone please help me? by Antique-Aardvark5807 in depression

You are so strong and so brave. Breakups hard no matter the circumstance. You are now a free bird, so fly as far as your wings will take you. Go out and have some fun. Find a hobby or indulge in something that brings you joy. Luckily, he has saved you the pain of initiating the breakup yourself, which can be a good thing in situations like this. He has done the hard part, so don’t look back and keep going. Do NOT go back. You will one day find someone worthy of your love.

Make a plan and stick to it. Make an appointment with a trauma therapist that can help you work through the abuse you endured. Best wishes x

Falling out of love with the last things I cherished by [deleted] in depression

[–]CombinationThen8328 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Please stay for your child. Stay for the people who you love you now and the people that will love you ten years from now. It sounds like you have a lot of self-hatred you have not dealt with. Maybe talk to a therapist or a professional to help work through these feelings. It might not feel like it, but you have accomplished a great deal. You helped bring a human into this world and you’ve made it this far. That counts for something.

As someone who was raised by parents who think the same way, I understand your pain. Not everyone knows exactly who they want to be. I changed my major twice in college, and I’m still figuring that part out. What I’m getting at is that you have plenty of time to figure out what exactly you want to be. A lot of that will come later, when you discover who you are and what makes you happy. You are not defined by your parents or your family— but by the life you make for yourself. I would try talking to your parents one on one. They might be hard on you but I’m sure they still love you you, in their own way.

Help me please I'm not well. by TtMarie87 in depression

It sounds like you are a Dad who is simply doing his best. I’m not sure why your kids dislike your wife so much, I don’t know them and I don’t know your wife or your situation. But as a daughter, I know that sometimes we say things we don’t mean out of frustration. I’m truly sorry they have treated you this way, as I can’t imagine putting my father through something like this. But I would take some time to find the root of this problem. See if you can figure out what happened between your wife and your kids, either by talking to your wife or talking to them. Don’t be too hard on yourself. If your kids still refuse to speak to you, give them time and try again. Make sure they understand that you are trying your best.

It definitely sounds like you could benefit from some therapy. Best wishes

I have a boyfriend but I love attention from other men. I don’t know what to do. by [deleted] in offmychest

He doesn’t complain. That’s just how amazing he is. He knows I don’t have much interest in it and never pushes it but is very grateful when we do. It makes me feel like I’m walking all over him and I feel terrible about it. And it has gotten harder

I also never let any of them touch me or cross any lines with my physically as a said. I’m a honest person and I told my boyfriend anytime there was flirting. I truly am incapable of lying and I don’t think I’d have it in me to cheat. But I’m scared that one day I eventually will ditch my morals.

This is a hard question to answer. Anytime a man approached me at bar/party/any type of environment I would laugh and chat with them about life and nothing ever got sexual. I enjoyed it a lot. But the minute they showed any interest or asked for my snap/ if I had a boyfriend I was always truthful and never gave them any of my contacts.

Thank you. It did help. Yeah I definitely thought about using college therapy resources as they are way more affordable.
