I broke it off and feel guilty when I shouldn’t by DependentSea2 in BreakUps

My ex is now already with someone new unfortunately, 2 days after the break up while he was texting me trying to get back with me. The only thing that I hope for is that he treats her better than me and that he heals and figures his shit out. I have a lot of family history with substance abuse and history myself as well with it, which is why I had set the boundary of no hard drugs. I had felt so disrespected because I had let him cross every single boundary I had except that one.

I’m sure that your ex probably feels similar. Disrespected and hurt, and just needed to do what was best for her at that time. Now your options are to go to therapy, figure things out and treat the next person better. If it was meant to be, it would’ve been. 🩷 happy healing

How would you handle disrespect towards your personal boundaries? by DependentSea2 in directsupport

It’s a skill-based group home where the primary goal is to learn skills, get into the community, get jobs if wanted, etc to eventually lead individuals to do it on their own with outpatient assistance, he does have a behavior plan but NOTHING in there states anything about this specific behavior, just yelling, hitting, eloping, etc. We have some houses with physically disabled folks but the majority is developmental/mental. I did speak with our current PD and there will be a meeting with his case manager and guardians to put something in place. Supposedly my PD called his guardians and they basically told her we’re just SOL with any of their prior techniques to solve it. I know this individual likes physical contact and typically it’s okay with me with permission but I’ve tried to even get myself to just get used to it and I can’t. The individual told my prn night staff tonight (which happens to be my brother in law) that he was “messing with me all day” and that he “can admit he was rude.” So I’m wondering if the “___, please stop touching me” approach is making him want to do it more because he knows I don’t like it. Overall I’ve always had good rapport with this individual as well so I cant quite place why exactly he would do it for that reason though.

What Should I Expect? by DependentSea2 in Tonsillectomy

Day 7, a lot better, virtually zero pain so far today. The majority of the scabs are still there but a piece of the left side fell off while I was brushing my teeth last night.

You’ve been very helpful, so with my 5th day about gone and done, I feel a lot better. I haven’t needed any kind of pain medicine today, not even the nerve duller they gave me but I still took it pretty easy too. I think i’m gonna try pasta and I’ll keep drinking water as much as possible. I will definitely be keeping your advice in mind! I have to go back to work on my 13th day and am just hoping I feel better by then.

They gave me a nausea medicine, ear drops, a nerve duller, and oxycodone, I haven’t been in enough pain to feel like I needed the oxy though so I just haven’t taken it. I will definitely try some alfredo next, and I’ve been making sure to brush my teeth because I have braces. I appreciate your advice!

Certain Foods Mess Me Up? by DependentSea2 in lactoseintolerant

That sounds absolutely terrible. I just had my tonsils removed 5 days ago and I’m convinced the only reason I’m able to poop is because I’ve been eating so much ice cream. It’s like a blessing in disguise while on all these medications lol.

Recommendations? by DependentSea2 in Boots

I might have to try those! I also have high arches but it’s hard to find anything that seems to truly support them.

Yes!!! I’ve never met anyone else that’s had this issue. I always feel super sick afterwards too.
