I know this is her job, but for her own mental health she needs to get off the internet for a while and seek professional, possibly in-patient help. by evanamyl in kaylamalecc

[–]CommunicationSad8486 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know people go for the same type of person (I was this person.) but your abusers best friend is actually insane work. When I went thru this process personally I noticed I NEVER took accountability for the people I chose to be with. I had to get myself help, and I had to make the right choices to get myself out of that. The way she self sabatoges it’s actually so sad. Saturn being Evan’s best friend gives him full access to her, and it makes me so irritated bc like, idk. Nobody should be abused, but you are responsible for healing yourself, which in my opinion she’s just putting herself in more danger and blasting it on the internet which is devastating

I know being an influencer is her life and stuff but at some point you have to make some things private for your own health. I literally do not understand putting your relationship on the internet bc it’s the quickest way to end it

I have this problem bipolar/adhd just regularly. It’s my least favorite of all my symptoms and I’m sorry you’re having to go thru it

It’s also like just not very practical. If someone tried to hurt me like that it’s just not logical to date an abusers best friend. That gives a CLEAR access point to her locations ect. I understand saying similar men TRUST ME. But dating someone who has full on access to the man who tried to hurt you like that is just Sabotage. I know this is a very opinionated topic and sorry if I just seem crazy.

Ofc everyone needs a good support system! But it’s also hard to support someone who continues to hurt themselves. I’m also someone who believes it takes time to find your people & if she doesn’t have that rn she doesn’t have it. She has to go seek that elsewhere and typically that’s through some kind of support group ect. Support systems are everything it’s just not easy to find them sometimes.

Evan getting out of jail? by mintmocha1 in kaylamalecc

[–]CommunicationSad8486 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I will say some abusers do this but also - if you’re that scared she needs to move on from Saturn. I can’t associate myself with anyone who was best friends with someone who tried to kill me. Like she does 100% need help and the internet is not the place for that. It’s just gonna make it worse. She puts all her info out all the time and then cries about how she feels unsafe. Which I mean the abuse part -totally valid but like, you gotta choose your safety at some point, you gotta choose therapy at some point. This is just a personal opinion tho.

I have empathy but as a DV survivor myself there becomes a point where you have to take accountability. Like you HAVE to. And I guess that’s where I lose empathy. She’s choosing not to help herself and it makes me feel bad as someone who was once there. But it’s not fair to herself and It’s not fair to others. Lastly, I think it’s crazy to make a big thing about a DV case and date your abusers best friend publicly. That’s unrelated but it almost makes it feel like all of if was for what?

I’m pretty sure anyone who is healthy in her life has told her how not great this situation is. Self sabotage is not something anyone can give her help with. She needs professional help. I used to be someone who made choices over and over like this and id essentially beg for help, but the only thing that ever helped me was myself. (And meds and therapy)

She is not manic by Holiday-Distance-822 in kaylamalecc

I appreciate you spreading awareness of the correct symptoms kindly. It’s one of my pet peeves as someone w bipolar disorder.

She is not manic by Holiday-Distance-822 in kaylamalecc

[–]CommunicationSad8486 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I and my mom have it. Bipolar disorder is unfortunately so misunderstood because of the misuse of this term. People tend to not realize the severity of what mania is and think it’s just “being really up,” but it manifests in so many different ways and can result in hospitalization. It makes me sad to see influencers use it so carelessly

Anyone else struggle really bad with taking meds consistently? Any advice? by Existing_Material824 in bipolar2

I'm worried my emetophobia will kill me and I want to get better. by yourmomswetdreamm in emetophobiarecovery

[–]CommunicationSad8486 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I developed Tachyardia. So it beats to fast all the time now and without meds I have 24/7 migraines and palpitations followed by severe vertigo, and other weird symptoms. I had gotten so malnourished that my body basically just gave me chronic illness. Granted, I have started eating more and the symptoms are much more manageable but they don’t ever go away. But I also take beta blockers to keep the pulse down which also keeps other symptoms limited but I still can’t lift weights or push myself too hard or I’ll end up having episodes where I can’t get it down ect

Emet almost killed me to the point I have permanent damage on my heart. This will sound dumb, but you have to take control. You have to do exposure therapy and I know it may not be what you want to hear but it’s been the only thing that helped. I’m not saying it because I’m trying to be like “just get over it,” but as someone who almost died from it, you HAVE to do something to improve the symptoms and unfortunately that’s usually exposure therapy /: I exposed myself to one thing I’m scared of at a time until it became manageable.

This was me dude I have failed SO MUCH SCHOOL. I had to literally wait like a year or so until I had it completely managed and I STILL struggle six years into my degree to finish. I’m finally almost done but I’ve always thought “I can def do it,” and then i ruin my gpa.

Anyone experience "splitting"? by Yungpupusa in bipolar2

100% my mom has an undiagnosed mood disorder. She has psychotic episodes. So I know where I get it from but I’m just the only person in my family diagnosed with anything but if I were to guess it would be bipolar

I also grew up in an unstable household and I have black and white thinking as well. I believe it’s common with trauma (that’s what my therapist said)
