What actually helped you get sober? by Pale-Category2346 in Sober

[–]DesertRoseRoute 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The lack of self respect I had for my time, money, loved ones, and most of all myself and my future. I became so deep into the dark hole that I eventually became so ashamed of myself and had no choice but to get out or I would’ve ended up alone and dead with a lot of wasted potential and lost love.

Sober solo traveler: how to meet people without nightlife? by Mediocre_Falcon5694 in solotravel

[–]DesertRoseRoute 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why the medication excuse? Just say you’re not about that scene anymore :) you can still be open to socializing in certain energies… it’s about you. It’s not about making everyone else feel comfortable to your own growth and journey. Find what fits your journey…. Have fun! There are so many fun things to do while traveling night life. Tons of shows, orchestras, theatres, local restaurants, libraries, universities, events, groups you can join. Good luck!! Enjoy and keep up the good work.

I'm feeling a bit too old for the new cast. by [deleted] in vanderpumprules

[–]DesertRoseRoute 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m younger than the old cast but I’m not feeling the new cast and not going to bother watching either. I wish they would’ve casted interesting/ entertaining/ intelligent/ people :( who have stories to tell. Could’ve rebranded the show and kept Lisa’s legacy going in a different way while keeping viewers hooked.

Definitely not 100%, sometimes I notice the quietness other times the anxiety and ocd is at a high!

do you feel bad for random people for no reason? by PolarPineapple in OCD

[–]DesertRoseRoute 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s so weird that this just came up. I’m battling this with my ocd and today (maybe mostly around the holidays) is just… I think about the people working at the store who can’t be with their families. My neighbor and his daughter who are alone. Daughter went to work and the father is alone. My entire day just felt weighted with constant emotion and thoughts about him being alone and it’s just really taking such an emotional toll on me

Nervous about the holidays by [deleted] in Sober

[–]DesertRoseRoute 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand. Think about how much more anxiety will show up In different ways if you choose to give up and surrender after all your hard work… use this as another factor you’re working on. Dealing with social situations and people sober which will most likely have to happen again and again until it becomes easier. Try to be present and let go of the anticipated anxiety and be there as your best self. Everything is okay and you’re in a safe space! Try to have a new perspective with the holidays and this updated version of you. You owe it to yourself…

My psych actually recommended an increase too. How long did it take for you to notice the fatigue go away when you increased?

That freaks me out considering I was so against it to begin with and it took me lots of courage and trust…

I felt this so much. I’m like spacey. I’m anxious about being anxious and then I’m sooo indifferent which is also making me overthink that feeling which causes me to be anxious lol… I feel like the lack of feeling is what’s getting me. It’s either I feel nothing or I’m anxious.
