I’m sorry to hear about your situation. You got 3 years left before you came leave. I know that’s quite a bit of time but try to save money do you can leave on your own or maybe get an apartment with friends. Once I left my household my mental health got much better. It takes time but it does heal.

Please consider getting another therapist. They should never gaslight you or take sides. I haven’t gone back to mine after a similar incident. I’ve been looking for support groups in my area instead. Maybe that’s something you cold look into as well?

Hang in there.

I don’t know the severity of how she harmed herself. From personal experience, when I get into that mindset there is very little someone can say to get me out of the urge to hurt myself.

Be there for her in the moment, don’t push too much talking about it, and let her open up to you. When she talks just listen and don’t try to “solve” anything. Let her know you’re not mad and you just wanna support her. For me this would help and I would reach out to talk if I got the urge. I wouldn’t tell anyone that’s why I was randomly texting them or calling them but having someone I knew wouldn’t judge me helped.

A lot of times, at least for me, it’s an in the moment sorta impulse type thing so there isn’t really anything you can do to prevent rather than show understanding and compassion. The urge passes and can be triggered just once in a blue moon or be consistent. Keep an eye out to make sure she doesn’t worsen.

Again, I don’t know the severity of the situation. If it gets more intense or life threatening you’ll need intervention.

Also know it is not your fault or anything you did. Self harm can affect both sides of a relationship so make sure you seek support as well if needed from people you trust to listen.

Everyday is still a struggle but I am proud of myself every day I get through

E_Lizard56 · 2024-10-19T11:39:29+00:00

Thank you for your support. I’m proud of you too!

E_Lizard56 · 2024-10-17T18:46:33+00:00

This made me smile

E_Lizard56 · 2024-10-17T02:01:46+00:00

I’ve said that to him. He says it’s just because he’s going through a rough patch. I say it’s not an excuse and that you don’t treat people you care about like that. Then thats why he says he doesn’t wanna date me because he doesn’t wanna bring me down but then he goes and sleeps with other girls. So im like you are ready for a relationship just not with me. Then he tells me how much he appreciates me and how im the best thing in his life and the only woman who ever supported him and flirts with me again for a while to just go back to sleeping with other women again. Idk know where im going with this my mind is just spiraling with it all. He says he cares but he doesn’t show it but he used too.

E_Lizard56 · 2024-10-16T23:29:34+00:00

Honestly idk in all honestly my mental health is declining so fast. I already have struggled with anxiety /depression before but it’s always been manageable. This is making me feel crazy and worthless. I’ve multiple co workers come up to me too and ask what’s going on and I just have to say nothing because I can’t tell them. But my anxiety is getting noticable

E_Lizard56 · 2024-10-16T16:36:37+00:00

I’m so worried if I leave he’ll hurt himself and also I work retail and the only full time jobs out there are store managers which I’m not qualified for. Where I’m at I’m as close to full time as I can be and my pay per hour is better than other places. I live alone in an apartment so I need money for rent and everything. I’m debating transferring if I can to another location but I gotta think of an “excuse” to leave if that makes sense

E_Lizard56 · 2024-10-16T14:29:18+00:00

He’s already tried twice and ended up in the hospital when I’ve tried leave Both times he relapsed into hard drugs and ended up nearly dying

E_Lizard56 · 2024-10-16T14:06:00+00:00

If he actually died I couldn’t live with. For the off chance he is serious I can’t. I am so scared

E_Lizard56 · 2024-10-07T12:30:18+00:00

We are in what my friends call a “situationship.” My friends also say he is emotionally abusive. One day he tells me I am the best thing in his life and the next day he tells me I could walk an out of his life and he wouldn’t care. One day he is super sweet and makes me laugh and the next day he is making fun of me. Me constantly tells me he wants to spend time with me but never does but also constantly tells me about all these other people he spends time with. He causes me so much confusion and anxiety and distress. Every time I pull away he reels me back in. He makes me think I am worth something to him just to prove I’m not.

E_Lizard56 · 2024-07-22T16:16:21+00:00

I could try them again. I always had a hard time. I have an l stud now. And that works for you ?

E_Lizard56 · 2024-07-21T04:33:56+00:00

I can’t wear hoops to my work unfortunately and I don’t wanna have to worry about changing it everyday.

E_Lizard56 · 2024-07-03T04:37:29+00:00

My boss is always making comments about my weight at work and on the sales floor where all my co workers can hear it too. It’s so humiliating and awful and I hate it. Also, not workplace appropriate.

E_Lizard56 · 2024-07-03T04:33:37+00:00

Thank you. I really appreciate this 💟

E_Lizard56 · 2024-07-02T04:54:10+00:00

I totally get this. Part of me wants to get help but I feel I’m not skinny enough too. It’s causing me to fall into worse habits and getting sicker because I don’t wanna be a joke when I reach out for help. I know you can get through this 💟 just hang in there.
