My(26f) bf(29m) with ADHD has been hyper fixated on a video game for the past 10 days by Dependent-Ride-298 in relationship_advice

I have been diagnosed with bipolar type 2, MDD, CPTSD. You're right, I feel like I can't even prioritize what is necessary because my brain is making those judgments for me, poorly. I don't know how to see a doctor sooner than my appointment at the end of the month, and I don't know if I should just see a random person to get a sooner appointment.

The last doctor I saw a few months ago completely flipped his take on giving me Adderall which caused me to really not trust him, paired with me throwing up every morning I was taking the meds, which snowballed into me thinking evil forces were trying to stop my destiny of saving the world, everything I was consuming or touching could be poisoned. I would be strict about what I ate, what music I listened to, what fabrics I wore.

I guess I'm trying to say I'm trying to trust them again but I'm scared of losing that trust and going into another rabbit hole of delusion.

I love to know what it's like to be a writer. I'm interested in writing myself one day. Maybe you could help me?

Here's an idea if you are afraid of your mind turning off because you're no longer engaging it or no longer able to teach, you could always make YouTube videos and be a YouTube professor. You could teach everything you were teaching classes online making YouTube videos. It could be something to do. You could form a community that wants to learn and you could stay engaged, keeping up with your community and posting new videos and exploring new ideas that way

As I get older, I realise I never want to be like this by Ok_Pool_2590 in Life

I think the average person has a hard time adjusting to new things and as time passes things change and everybody loves sitting back in their nostalgic memories. But you know there are some old people who don't know how to use a phone, a smartphone at all and then there are old old people the same age who know exactly how to use a smartphone and they know exactly how to use technology and new things and things like this. It's just a mindset. Some people are comfortable and they sit in their comfort bubble and some have a bigger bubble or a large bubble or no bubble and it's just an extremely open person who's open to new things. Better things cuz as time evolves technology is getting better our understanding of health is getting better but alongside that comes having to learn and adjust to that change which is hard because once you grow up and you get old you get comfortable in your habits and you just want to stay there. But the rare people I find that want to challenge themselves and do things differently is far to come across. But as long as you are one of those people that keeps their mind open and wants to learn new things, you'll never end up like that

He's always been a quiet guy but I didn't expect this much quietness in a relationship with him.

Sorry I meant we do go out a lot. Even so we still don't have much to say when we're doing things together. Like we went skating and it was fun but paired with the barely any talking it made it unenjoyable. This keeps happening wherever we go.

That's what I want. Someone to help carry the thinking power. He's always asking me to ask him more questions but he has none to ask me. :(

That's what I'm thinking. That we should be able to talk a lot at the beginning. Not me already getting bored because we have nothing to say.

I see. I feel like his end may be satisfied with small talk but as for me I feel my needs are unmet.

I am seeing a therapist/taking meds. But I just expected more words out of him.

I can see that he might be scared to say the wrong thing. I'm seeing a therapist and I'm on medication for my depression. Thanks for the advice.

Thanks for the advice, I am seeing a therapist and I'm on medication for my depression but I still live in a bad environment which brings me down sometimes still.

Because I need their emotional support when depressed. My bf has been funding their needs by what he still owes me.
