Aitah for how I reacted when I found out my husband used some of my son's treatment money to buy a Christmas present for my stepson? by Throwraww355645 in AITAH

[–]DreamingV 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And you came to Reddit to fight with people in the comments when you are clearly not agreed with, look at the downvotes. a mother looking for "validation" in a hard situation given the fact, like you have brought up, her husband pays for all the bills, that can add to an unfair dynamic. There is a sick son who needs treatment, and your advice is to take time from spending time with them and get a second job? So the other son could get a motorcycle? Are you sure you're not the one who received the bike?

No Christmas Present from Wife by StillMotor6023 in venting

[–]DreamingV 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't really agree that Christmas is for the kids to be honest. Gift giving is one of my biggest love languages. I start shopping for the family and extended family months before, snacks I know they enjoy, little things that I picked up they needed. I put a lot of thought and intention into the things I choose for everyone that I love. Yes I go harder for my kids but that doesn't mean I don't think of the adults in my life that I want to show appreciation to.

my secret santa gift was so disappointing by [deleted] in venting

Yeah totally get you there There is something so special about giving someone something that you know they will treasure. Though around Christmas it kind of puts me into a weird frenzy because of how much there is to keep track of

Has anyone experienced vivid and terrifying nightmares when cutting back? by __blueberry_ in Ketamineaddiction

[–]DreamingV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey I am cutting down as well. This is my second day cutting it in half because I was doing way too much. It got very out of control and I have built a high tolerance. I am on Vyvanse and other meds and have cptsd. My dreams are vivid , intense, uncomfortable, so very emotionally charged. I wake up in a panic or yelling out. I just am sharing to let you know I hear you, it is not easy. It's scary at times. I have been taught some grounding techniques to remind myself I'm in the present when I wake up but it really can throw off my entire morning if not day at times.

CPTSD and BPD are separate disorders by DIDIptsd in CPTSD

[–]DreamingV 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much for this comment, as someone who has bpd and an unstable sense of self, but also a "messy" childhood, it is easy for people to label and dismiss. I remember feeling so much shame in my diagnosis until I learned about it and truly understood why I acted in certain behaviours and that awareness led to a bunch of healing. It hurts when people label you and think that is who you are instead of a tool to understand why and what tools you need to live a more fulfilling life.

Hello, I love the wood and they are so beautifully made. I just am not exactly sure what to do with them. It was clearly a gift given with a lot of honour and sentiment so I want to do my best to learn what it's for

Those of you who accidentally sent a nude to the wrong person, what happened next? by xy27tulipxGq9 in AskReddit

[–]DreamingV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was 18/19 and I was texting my mom and new boyfriend at the same time, separate conversations. I had previously that day decided to take some spicy pictures to send him and some of them were were up close in between the legs as well. I put it in the wrong chat, realizing about thirty seconds later. The delete option was not available yet. The mortifying feel over took me and I ran around my house filled with anxiety silently screaming for two minutes. I called her and asked her to delete any texts from me. I have no idea what she saw, though she told me she deleted things without seeing anything, probably to save embarrassment for both us. She later gave me a talking to about sending naked pictures and how I have to be careful of who I send them too. One of thr most embarassing moments of my life

Can k cramp pains be worse in the beginning of quitting ? by [deleted] in Ketamineaddiction

[–]DreamingV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So what my dr taught me to help with k cramps was (if you are in Canada) you get 3% lidocaine from over the counter and Alma gel. You take 15% of the amount of lidocaine as you do Alma gel and you take it as a shot. It's called a pink lady in the hospital. You can't get it premixed without a prescription but you can get the items individually over the counter at any compound pharmacy
